Very Sad
The game started off crazy with a 3rd and inches play a few feet away from a touchdown - Brady handed it off to Maroney, who apparently didn't know he was going to get the ball! He didn't even make an attempt to grab the ball, so it goes down and 3 Colts go after it - somehow the ball got away from all of them and a Patriot grabbed it in the end zone and scored! I don't know how Indy let that one go, but they did, and it was awesome.
Then some bad stuff happened when the Colts kept scoring until they tied the game at 21.
But then Ellis Hobbs had an 80-yard punt return to make up for his pass interference call in the end zone that basically gave the Colts 8 points. So Brady throws a perfect touchdown pass but Caldwell just dropped it. But then a push out got us a TD anyway! Gaffney had control of the ball all the way down and they ruled it a TD, despite Indy's challenge.
So it's 28-28, the Pats are set to score, and Caldwell drops his second wide open pass of the day. He had this shocked look on his face, which all us fans had too. They only got a field goal out of it, which I was not pleased with.
And then...
Indianapolis threw for 52 yards...and of course Vinatieri got a field goal to tie it at 31 apiece.
On the punt, Hobbs brought it back to the NE 46. However, they didn't get much farther, and Gostkowski got 3 points with 3:49 to go. Indy had the ball and basically went nowhere with it, so NE had it back again with 3:33 on the clock. Of course NE did nothing with it, so the Colts got it back with 2:17 to go. And it was bad. They got a whole lot of yardage, there was a flag, and at the 2 minute warning it was not looking good.
The Colts took the lead for the first time the whole game with one minute to go.
And New England cried.
If only Caldwell had caught the ball and they could have gotten 7 points, it would have been tied at 38 instead of being down by 4.
Tom threw an interception with 16 seconds to go.
Largest comeback ever. Gotta say, the Pats threw this one away. And I am very disappointed.
I really hope Chicago wins.
