In Indianapolis, the Patriots, who are used to dominating the Colts, managed to squeak out a win by the skin of their teeth, literally.
If it was not for a game-saving tackle by All-Pro linebacker/defensive end Willie McGinest on 4th down on New England’s one yard line, the Patriots would not be 10-2. But to set up the breathtaking final play of the game, the Patriots had to first collapse on both offense and defense, blowing a 31-10 lead.
The Colts came back and tied the ballgame, but Patriot quarterback Tom Brady found Deion Branch in the back of the end zone to put the Patriots up by a touchdown.
The Colts got a field goal from Mike Vanderjadt, but that’s all that the Patriots defense would give up down the stretch as New England held on for the victory. | |
