OMG, They held the Colts to 4 of 12 on 3rd down. That is huge. We gave up 44 yds rushing. The Colts only scored 24 points, and 7 of those were during garbage time.

IMO the secondary gave up one bad play and it was the 73 yd pass with time running out on the Colts. That play gave the Colts a light, but a dim light.

The Colts only ran the ball 10 times, that is total domination. If you force Peyton to throw 57 times again, I bet you have won again.

Our secondary did what they needed to do in order for us to win.

That is the key. The last few games we were picked APART by Peyton on third. All those throws to Dallas Clark.

Shut down the third down, and we win.
