Colts lose Super Bowl 44; Saints 31 - Colts 17
It's a very bitter pill to swallow, but the facts are that the Saints were better. Despite the Colts out-rushing and out-gaining the Saints, the Saints made the plays to win and the Colts didn't. It's easy to place the blame on Peyton Manning, and Manning-haters will likely do so.
Ignore them.
Manning did all he could, throwing for over 333 yards and a score. However, in the end, the Saints offense simply could not be stopped in the second half. Because the Saints offense was so dominant in the second half, this forced Manning to take chances in the fourth quarter, down 24-17 with a little over 5:00 left. And with chances come turnovers. Thus, the pick six, which was really a great play by Indiana University alum Tracy Porter, who has had one helluva playoff run. Porter jumped Wayne's route, and the gamble paid off. As shake n bake so accurately put it, most of the Saints gambles paid off.
Can't give enough respect and props to Purdue alum Drew Brees. His running game was totally shut down, and without any truly big plays, he was able to carve up the Colts secondary for 288 yards and 2 TDs. Also, the fake kick called by Saints head coach Sean Payton was tremendous.
In the end, the Saints were just a bit better. The score does not give justice to how close and how exciting this game was. I give major props to Joseph Addai and the running game. They came to play. The defense contained Reggie Bush and the Saints running game. Dwight Freeney was able to make an impact, getting a key sack.
But, again, it just was not enough. Hats off to the Saints. If a "good guy" team beat us, it was them. It's a wonderful story that they won. Dave of Canal Street Chronicles is next to me, and he's damn near crying. I know for many of you this does not comfort you, but I must admit that it is a little overwhelming to see the fans here reacting to the Saints winning. This stadium was so loud for them, it might as well have been a home game for them.
I want to thank all of you posters and readers for contributing today and all throughout the week. We will have more fallout throughout the evening, including our own post game quotes and photos from the locker rooms.
Chin up, Colts fans. This was a helluva season; a season no one expected our guys to have. No shame in losing to the Saints. As always, keep the haters at bay.
Go Colts!

Porter made a great read and a great play at the right time. Manning did not make a bad throw on that play. Just wasn’t meant to be.

Porter
Porter gambled, and got lucky (or maybe I should say that his film study paid off). If Wayne had run some kind of double move, like a slant-and-go, it would have been six for the Colts.

Why are we just blaming the defense?
The offense scored 17 points. 17. Did we really expect to hold the saints to under 17 points?
yes they got carved up, but they kept them to fgs 3 times. They stopped them at the goaline… and the offense gave the ball right back with horrible conservative playcalling that allowed the ending the half fg. The special teams and gutsy called gave them another short field at the beginning at the second half.
Did they play great? no. Were they to blame? NO…this is an offensive team and the offense didn’t play the way they usually play.

Saints fan here.
Colston dropped a crusial pass too. Bottom line was if anything coaching. The on sides kick will go down as one of the ballsiest calls ever in a Super Bowl! Think about this.
After the Vikes game fans ,talking heads everyone said the Saints play dirty. Greg Williams [ defensive coridinator sp? ] said to the media " we will put some remember hits on Manning ". I was think’n Damn refs will be all over this. But the Saints played as clean a game as possible. BUT. Colts thought they are coming. Made adjustments for something that didn’t happen. Instead Williams defense came some but stayed back in coverage mostly. Thats coaching. Also omly one stupid penalty on the most penalized team this year. Coaching. Just saying

Peyton did what he had to do
to win. He made one mistake. It was a big one but it was him that made it. Was it his fault that we lost? Absolutely not. It was in fact him that kept us in it, along with Addai. The blame here falls solely on Caldwell. He coached cowardly and too conservatively and every early Saints points were on his hands. Maybe I’m just being too emotional right now, I don’t know, but I am so disappointed right now in Caldwell’s play calling it’s not even funny.
Now since apparently ESPN decides things, Peyton will be called a choker and be blamed for this, whether he deserved it (he doesn’t) or not. Unbelievable. If the Colts fired Caldwell and brought in Leslie Frazier and Tony Dungy like BBS once suggested I would 100% support that.
Caldwell. Baskett. Unbelievable. Once again, maybe my emotions, but we had this game, and Caldwell screwed us in my opinon, Piece of……

Maybe that’s just emotion talking, I don’t know, but I have never been so disappointed in a coaching performance. Congrats to New Orleans and Brees, that team and player deserved it and earned it. Their coach wanted it. Ours did not.

by chaucer on Feb 7, 2010 10:24 PM EST up reply actions 0 recs
That's my issue
In my book, Manning is the best ever. Unfortunately, with the way ESPN and the major sports media is run, it’s all about Super Bowls. So, guys like Brady (deservedly), and Bradshaw and Roethlisberger (completely UN-deservedly) may be placed ahead of Manning in the history books.
I love the Colts. And I mean LOVE thec Colts, I was heartbroken as a 12 year old when Harbaugh’s hail mary fell short, but for me, this was about Manning’s legacy as much as it was the Colts’. It is so disappointing that Manning will likely take the blame for this, when he 100% was the reason we were so good in the first place.
Congrats Saints, you earned it. Be proud. I applaud and admire your entire organization, team, and fans. I just think you outcoached us in the end. Payton has guts. He has charisma. Caldwell…….I don’t know. You guys just wanted it more. There may have been some controversial calls, but in the end, it didn’t matter. You went for it, we didn’t challenge. Point: NEW ORLEANS. Super Bowl Champ: NEW ORLEANS

In short, Manning > Brady, I just could’ve worded it better

Hi Colts fans
Longtime (I guess) Braves fan here who knows a thing or two about being disappointed come playoff time. Best thing to realize is that you guys are stacked for next year, and as hard as this seems now, you will get over this. You guys were awesome this year, put one hell of a show on for the rest of the league. I know everyone says “oh don’t feel so bad. Look forward to next year” but I think we have have that copyrighted. So really, you guys did great, and don’t feel so bad. (Its not like you still don’t have the best QB in the league. Even Pujols is human, I think)
Plus don’t worry about the Who Dat crap. It won’t last so long. If we could live through Phillies fans crap, Who Dat nation is nothing

He’s still the greatest QB of all-time, and his career isn’t over. His playoff record will improve when we win Super Bowl XLV.

not trying to be a troll
but I don’t believe he can be called the best QB ever yet. Best playing the game at this moment, damn right he is, maybe after his career is over and his whole body of work can be examined he will go down as the greatest QB to ever play the game, but as of right now he’s probably 4th behind Montana, Elway, and Marino. (I still rank him above Brady if that gets me any brownie points).
I don’t think the Colts losing was Manning’s fault. As much as the guy does for your team I think he should get a pass for throwing an INT once in a blue moon. Porter made a great play simple as that.
Anyway, like I said, i’m not trying to troll and not a Peyton hater, just wanted to offer my opinion and congratulate you guys on a good season and don’t get too down, I’m sure you guys will be back in the big game again in the next 3 or 4 years

at the end of the first half was the kiss of death. The Saints won because of their coach who stayed agressive and NEVER took his foot off the gas petal. I feel like the Colts game plan was overly conservative… sort of a cautionary tale for the future.

I concider the colts "slowing down" right before the half and giving the ball back before the half the "turning point".

Strange question but
Did anyone else feel like maybe we had recovered that onside kick? From the replays it looked like we had it when the pile started, and they technically arent supposed to go off of who just has it when you pull everyone off of the pile. On a similar note, i couldn’t believe they didn’t do anything about all of the Saints coached and players pulling and pushing in the area of the pile. The onside wasnt the only reason we lost, but Im still curious if anyone else felt the same way.

Hola
Sorry to be right. Tim Jennings was a big reason I won’t be writing Tim Jennings a love letter.
I said that the Saints would get one big play in special teams (check) and one big play on defense (check) and the Colts wouldnt do what was needed to win.
Well, I was half right. The offensive game plan was perfect. They ran the ball well, mostly up the middle. This game was not on the offense.
The defensive game plan made no sense to me. They blitzed and played man WAY too often against a team that was struggling to beat zones. The Colts beat themselves at the end of the first half by confusing the hell out of themselves with coverages that werent necessary. Then, by the time the second half came around and they needed to get auxilary pressure, the damage was already done.
For me, outside of the onside kick, the play of the game was Pierre Garcon’s drop on 3rd down at the end of the 2nd quarter. If he catches that, he’s off to the races. The Colts probably score on that drive and its 13-3 or 17-3.
Anyone blaming this on Peyton Manning is a moron that doesn’t understand football.
Jim Caldwell got severely out coached on the onside kick, on various other situations and then kicking the 51 yard field goal. As soon as he did that I told my wife the game was over.
And finally, this isn’t sour grapes, as I felt all along this would be the outcome, but the officiating was horrible.
I don’t believe in ‘letting them play’. I believe in having a rule book and calling whats in the rule book. If you dont want to call a penalty, remove it from the books. There were multiple plays when Clark was being undressed by holds, Peyton would go down 3 seconds after releasing the ball, or one of our players would be speared in the head after being down and the whistle being blown. On top of that, on the replay, it sure seemed like Baskett had control of the ball and was touched on the onside kick. I don’t know.
In the end, the Colts are out done by what usually out does them – one player cannot overcome every hole on the team every game. It will eventually catch up to the team. This time it just happened in front of the entire world.
But win or lose, the Colts arent everything for us, remember to give those that are important to you hugs tonight. Especially if you punched them in the face during the 2nd half.
Have a good off-season Stampede Blue, I know I’m like Brokeback Mountain (I cant quit you), but Im a real sore loser, and I generally attend to avoid sports for a while after teh Colts are eliminated. See ya’ll sometime much later.

As someone said, this lost doesn’t suck as bad as losing to San Diego. Maybe because the fans and their media are kinda douchie. Saints fans and media were ok. So I don’t have this animosity.

Seahawks fan here: I was a neutral but loved the Saints vcitory
The same way I would’ve loved Manning to win the Super Bowl.
Tough loss for you guys, but this is always one of my favorite organizations. Caldwell was seriously outcoached and I will stand by this statement.
Manning in a way did blow it because he threw the interception. But you know what? One throw shouldn’t offset the fact he played a phenomenal game and made some amazing throws. I consider him the greatest QB of this generation, way ahead of Brady.
For actual criticism I would say Indy has some of the lousiest kickoff returners I’ve ever seen. You should invest in getting a special teams game.
Good luck to Indianapolis next season and may they always thrive under the greatness of Manning.

I was not one of those people taht didn’t think the saints couldn’t win but that’s not realy helping me at the moment.I hope Scott Green cashed in because that 2 point conversion was the second worst call I have ever seen, the first being the brady tuck rule. I’m glad taht it was deemed irrelivant by the incredible play by tracy porter. The only solice I’m getting is that we don’t have to hear about 18-1. Someone convince me that the sky hasn’t fallen on the colts, because the superbowl hangover thing is really scaring me.

Peyton didn't have his best game
he was fine, but he has to notice Porter sitting on that route and hold on, and he forced some bad deep balls.
Reggie Wayne and Frenchy dropped some balls and the D had issues tackling and needed to tighten up their zones.

So you honestly think that the reason we lost this game is because Peyton had no help? How do you go 14-0 without talent? Peyton is one of the greats, but no way is he the only reason the Colts go 14-0. He shares the blame for this lost. That pick was a terrible throw, there is no way you miss Porter hovering there, waiting to make the play.

GOOD SEASON!
The COLTS had a good season thank GOD they were saved from the pressure of ever having a GREAT one.BILL POLIAN and his afraid to lose mentality that he perfected in BUFFALO havecost a franchise that has drafted better than the PATRIOTS almost every year for decade once again.Why can’t he stick to picking players(he is one of the best ever) anything after that should be left to someone who does not resort to blaming referees or complaining about MEAN players,as soon as you do that you give permission to lose.Hate N.E. all you want but they did most of their damage with less talent,but more heart.

You guys have nothing to be sad about. Believe me, I would have been glad to make it as far as you did.
Indianapolis definitely has a bright future looking to next year. The Colts will be back. I still think Peyton has another championship in him.
Maybe he’ll get it next year.
Who cares if he's a Cubs fan? This is a football forum! He is a PACKER fan as well. So, from now until March, I’m sure he’ll dedicate a lot of his time here. In late March, then we can be enemies during the baseball season. Besides, the Cubs have perhaps the most loyal baseball fanbase in the country. You have to respect that.

All in all, still a great year
Despite how shitty we all feel it was a fantastic run by the team this year. For the most part the team is pretty young, Peyton shows no signs of slowing down and thanks to the cba problems we will likely hold on to some important rfa s this year. No reason to think this roster can’t compete for a few more titles before the window closes.
Now to dreaded offseason, thankfully I have the winter olympics in town for the next two weeks to take my mind of this loss.

…contrary to what the Packers’ fan said above me, I feel your pain. It hurts all the more when you KNOW that you were so close to silencing the haters only to fall short. Yes, you’ll be around next year and forever long Peyton is under center. It was just that following the season ending turmoil (which created the “need to silence the haters”), you guys NEEDED the win. Just like we NEEDED the win after Spygate. And it sucks.
My advice is to go do something else and come back at the end of the week. Stay away from the MSM and ignore sports for a bit. Come back after the wound starts to heal.

Oh yeah, of course.
It’s just a different kind of pain. When you lose when you come so close all the time (see: Eagles, Philadelphia or like you, Cubbies), it numbs the pain and it’s more of an “Oh yeah, of course we’d lose” feeling. When you’ve won recently, you know what that feels like and it sucks when it slips away.

Uh, the NFC Championship game in 2007
Or our wild-card game this year still hurt.
And they both fit the second category of the games you described.

Really?
I’d say the Cubs will always fall into the “Of course we’d lose” idea.
I guess the Season Ending Favre Pick (part 1/3) does sting. I guess the fact that it was Favre made me forget. Yeah, that would be category 1. Welcome to the moping party, I guess?

You sir, clearly have no idea what 2008 felt like for the Cubs.
They expected to win it all, which made it harder when they lost in the NLDS.
And the blatant face mask (which was not called) which ended the Packers season still stings.

Anyone who has a problem with Joseph should stop watching Colts football. It's unfair to expect a back to replace Edge, and Addai has been excellent in all areas when he is healthy.

there’s nothing to be ashamed of! You had a marvelous season and with Peyton at the helm, you’ll always matter. As for the Saints, they were the better team and that’s OK. The NFL is all about competition and being the best you can. Keep the faith and perhaps next season will be brighter. Of course, hopefully my Broncos can challenge you and (I hope) overtake you.

At the end of the day….I’m happy for NO….happy for Brees and happy for ourselves too
We have the best team in the league (I still think that out of 10 games we would win 6 or 7…but not this one…that counts) and we have what it takes to come back next year
I’m damn proud of this team…I’m damn proud of our fans….and I’m damn proud of NO too….
Sucks to lose it….but it happens too….we showed everybody who we are and what we can do….but they outplayed us….
Congrats to the players and coaches for an AMAZING season….and huge props to NO for what they have done….
I don’t know if I’ll ever see the Colts winning a SB again…but I can die happy because I already saw it…I know that feeling…I’ll NEVER forget that feeling and NO should enjoy it as well
