Turned on the Colts Jets game last weekend just as the Colts took a kickoff in the late 2 QTR losing 17 to 3. Now I didn't see the early part of the game where the Jets had obviously played well.
What I did see was Peyton looking like he wanted to bite the head off a lineman. I commented on it because he is usually so composed looking. Manning then took the Colts down the field like he was playing a team from a French art school. I remember thinking very clearly "you can put a fork in the Jets."
Peyton Manning's play from that point was as good as I have ever seen. He threw perfect passes again and again. The Jets d-backs played really well but they had no chance against an unmatched display of accuracy. Kudos to Peyton-best I have ever seen.
The Colts 1st half was marred by dropped passes and sacks created by blown blocking assignments. You bet Peyton was mad. Great 2nd half adjustments. I am really looking forward to the Super Bowl. The 2 best teams in football. Better than average defenses and great offense.
