Colts as Underdogs send Ravens to early Vacation
Colts Beat Ravens 15 - 6 in battle of field goals.
Peyton Manning and the Indianaplois Colts held off the Baltimore Ravens. Peyton Manning has answered the question, “Can Peyton win a big game?” He most definately can, or at least he can give his team a chance to win. Peyton held the ball for much of the 4th quater keeping the Ravens offense off the field.
In a game that didn’t see a touchdown, the game was a battle of field goals throughout.
In fact Colts kicker Adam Vinatieri set an NFL postseason record with his 33rd career field goal, his fourth of the game for the Indianapolis Colts against the Baltimore Ravens. Adam Vinatieri set the NFL postseason record with his 33rd career field goal, his fourth of the game for the Indianapolis Colts against the Baltimore Ravens.
Peyton Mannning threw an interception early and one in the 4th quarter that didn’t hurt much since it was long and a field goal was on the way. Peyton’s playoff play has been in question since he has been unable to get to the superbowl and the Colts have choked the past few years. Peyton definately looked a bit more on edge than normal.
The question coming into the game was the Colt’s defense. Could they hold the Ravens like they held the Chiefs last week. The Colt’s defense rose to the occasion and kept the Raven’s quiet through the game.
This encore performance is what the Colts need to get the Superbowl. Can they do it again next week?
