Its been brady that has had the colts number through the years. This is a juggling catch made by andre johnson. First down up at the 30 yard line. Well, you go back to all those Manning Brady you remember peyton lost his first six matchups with top. Andrew luck has lost his first four. Trying to get off of that schneid tonight. That is caught by the rookie dorsett for a first down. Cris weve seen this offense explode before. And it would not surprise me at all now with a bit of a hurryup here. Remember, they went into tennessee in the fourth quarter. They were down 2714 and i think scored three touchdowns and thats when andrew luck hurt his shoulder during that fourth quarter. So theyre certainly capable of mounting a come back here. Al they were on the verge of going 03. And thats too high. And then butler pops dorsett right in front the bench. No flag, second and ten. Cris hes just had a couple sail on him today. You know, its not typical to see him miss high the way hes missing with some of these balls tonight. That was an opportunity to keep that string of nice plays rolling. Al you see hasselbeck there and you ethe numbsee the number colts. Excellent in the first half. And nary a point here in the second half. The throw. And its in traffic. It is incomplete. Moncrief was out of bounds. Butler covering on the play. It will be third down. Cris that was a little much to ask. That was pure double coverage with their best corner and Malcolm Butler, with high low coverage underneath him. Ill tell you, he almost pulled it out of there, doesnt he . Al third and ten. Cris you almost have to consider this third down territory, dont you . Al i would, yes. Hes going to take off. Hes going to get the first down and a whole lot more. Back to the 28 yard line. Third down and ten luck for a 25 yard gain. Cris any time you have whats called this twoman coverage where you have an underneath coverage for all those receivers and theyre running with their back to the quarterback, you see it almost every veteran quarterback knows to pull that one down and take off. Al without a huddle now. Luck. This time the pass is low and incomplete. Intended for coby fleener. Cris ill tell you, it is not easy to get off the ball if youre a tight end playing against the patriots. They sacrifice rushing the passer to make sure those tight ends take shots every time theyre taking off down the field. Of course, the tight ends such a big part of the offense, coby fleener had touchdowns for this team a season ago. Al second and ten. Threeman rush. And incomplete. Malcolm butler seems to be everywhere. Intended for whalen. It will be third down and ten. Cris cant play it a whole lot better than that. Watch right here. Youll see butler basically run this route for griff whalen. Almost came down with it. First of all, remember the super bowl t bowl. The unbelievable play. How much respect belichick has for this guy, he put him on Antonio Brown himself in the opener. You think belichick always doubleteams the best player on the other team. That time he said, go get him, butler. Al man, oh, man. Cris fleener was wide open. Al threw it from dorsett, third down and ten. Obviously theyll go for it with 3 1 2 to play. Cris that an easy first down and just did not see it. You want to do the old crossing route. Here he comes across the field. Theres nobody on that half of the field. He would have walked for the first down at least. The earliest receiver stopped going the other way. Al fourth and ten. And new englands going to take a timeout. Referee their first, a 30second timeout. Al well, it was a sixpoint game when the colts tried this. Inexplicable, unexplainable. Coach pagano said, what did snap it for . That told you about all you needed to know. Cris tell you what was interesting with Bill Belichick about his dad and all the College Coaches that he used to hang around with, and as an offshoot of that, bill got to hang around with those guys. He said in the nfl, you played a fourthree defense, everybody lo lined up and thats what it was. All the College Players had different lineups and he got used to seeing all that crazy stuff. Al fourth and ten. Keep it alive . No, he cannot. Pass intended for t. Y. Hilton incomplete. New england will get the ball. Colts will be compelled to use their timeouts on defense. And just hope to get the ball back as quickly as they can. Cris just too many throws tonight just high. And thats certainly one that maybe t. Y. Hilton had a chance to catch as well as he jumps. No, he wont tell you. Youll never know. Hes one of those warrior kind of guys, but just wonder if that shoulder bothered him just enough tonight for him to miss i can think of four or five during the course of this evening that missed high. Al started out sharp, but then gradually the accuracy diminished and the patriots can use the clock and blount will take the ball up to the 34 yard line. And indy will take a timeout. So the new England Patriots right now, you know, its too early to Start Talking about an undefeated season, but lets Start Talking about it. Theyre going to go to 50. Theyve got their next three games and four out of five at home. I mean, how would you match this team up right now about the 07 unit . Cris i dont think theyre quite as explosive as that team that had randy moss and, of course, all the ability to hit those big plays. If im not mistaken, that was the 50 touchdown passes for whatever for tom brady. They had the ability to scare you in so many different directions. I even brought it up to tom a little bit last night. He said, not yet. Thats not the same sort of he really thinks of that 07 team was the best team in the history of football, not just the history of the patriots. He had a pretty strong argument until that final game against the giants. Al giants almost knocked them off in the last regular season. Then we all know what took place referee offense, five yard penalty. Remains second down. Al took place in arizona. Delay of the game here. So Bill Belichick who has been the coach of this team since 2000. Talked to him last night, what about life after football . He made an interesting he said, i got a life away from this. He does. He loves music. He is a good golfer. Has a few other things going on. Bob kraft with jonathan on his Left Shoulder who is the heir apparent to running this team. Now we have new england taking a timeo timeout. Second an nine. Now youve got lombardi who won five titles, two of those were super bowls when the super bowl began. 66. Chuck noll won four in the 70s. Belichick has been to six and won four. Also has been to a couple as an assistant coach. He was with the giants back in 90 when they beat the bills in tampa and the game that Scott Norwood had a chance to win at the end but was wide right. Im sure hes thanking me profusely for bringing that one up again. Legarrette blount. Timeout here. So we mentioned deflategate like four times in a row just to get that out of the way earlier. Cris got the over. Al got the over. So by the way, the thing is not totally over because now its going to go to the court of appeals in february. Wont have any impact on the season. League, of course, wants to contend that they have the ability to suspend people and have it stick. Brady, of course, got to play because judge berman overturned the ruling before the season. That guy, i think, mirrors america in terms of hearing about deflategate. Third down and seven. And up to the 36 yard line here. Going to be fourth down. So it aint over over, but it might as well be. I mean, the whole league versus the union and all that other stuff. Cris its about power and control. You know, who has it . The players, the commissioner, who gets final say on punishment, all that stuff that football fans just love hearing about. They just love that stuff. Boy, i think every time you bring up money or courts or fines or whatever, you lose another football fan. So well stay away. Al whats better than an offseason than hearing all about a collective Bargaining Agreement . 17 yard line. Fighting his way back goes whalen. Another flag down. Weve already had 18 accepted penalties in this game. And a few unaccepted. Slater is down. Their special teams maven. Son of jackie slater, the great ram tackle. But matthew got shaken up before. Now hes going to need some assistance getting over to the bench. Cris four straight years to the pro bowl as a special teamer. And Third Straight years as captain. Referee holding, receiving team number 35. Ten yard penalty, first down. Al matthew goes hobbling over to the sideline. That would be a significant loss because he is their pro bowl guy on the special teams. Great gunner. Been doing it for years, too. The last to run now for the colts who need two touchdowns without a timeout. They begin with the pass up to moncrief. That time by butler. Luck 26 of 44 now to 247 yards. 2 1 2 to play. Luck stepping away. Throws, caught. 39 yard line. And that is ahmad bradshaw. But bradshaw cannot get out of bounds so the clock keeps on rolling. Cris pretty remarkable that bradshaw is even playing in this game. What did he get here, monday . Something like that. Active and playing new to the offense. Al second and two. Been down in florida working out. Luck has to throw that one away. That stopped the clock at 2 05. It will be third down and two. Cris this is when things get a little bit tough as a receiver to work downfield against eight, sometimes nine guys in coverage. Just not a lot of gaps and tell you, these guys remember the whole thing at the end of the year . I got to admit, i fell into this a little bit, too. Darrelle revis is gone, vince wilfork, why did revis get out of here because he was able to cover half the field and all that sort of stuff. Now it all seems to work out at the end of the day. Al four guys who started in the super bowl. Luck will pick up the first down and that takes us to the twominute warning with 1 58 officially. So that much time remaining, they try to stay undefeated on sunday night football. Al post game reports bob costas, mike florio, mike telling us what else is going on around the league. Cris and i taking a look ahead to next weeks game in charlotte between the eagles and the undefeat undefeated cris no, that doesnt mean anything. Normal game for me. No big deal. Having a little hard time believing that. But he came out tonight. This is the only blemish. And just need ot his ball on th one. But he does it in a workmanlike fashion tonight. Al the pass is caught before he gets out of bounds. T. Y. Hilton has it, steps out, first down to 30 yard line with 1 52 left. Cris well, we certainly have seen Stranger Things happen, so who knows . A couple of shots at the end zone here. And go back to that onside kick in the first half that appeared to be recovered by a colt that couldnt see in replay so the patriots got the ball and went right down and scored with it. Al from the 30. Three men rush. Inbound. Going to the end zone. Too far. Donte moncrief covered by Malcolm Butler. Second down. Cris moncrief about a 4. 4 guy and tried this double move. There arent many human beings on earth that can reaccelerate and stay with guys that fast on those double moves, but Malcolm Butler gave up the very early touchdown and not a whole lot since then. Al they havent shied away from them. Second and ten. And that is juggled and then griff whalen is able to hold on. So he makes a juggling catch. That will be first down at the 18 yard line. Luck quickly to the line. Snap it with 1 25 left. Throwing, and that will be caught by whalen in the end zone. Touchdown. So griff whalen tried to go from after that crazy play with a touchdown here. 18 yards could make it a onepossession game. Cris this is a route that takes some time to do. Offensive line just against threeman pass rush, provides plenty of time and perfectly thrown ball there by luck. So here we go. The National Football league is never over. Al its all going to come down to recovering an onside kick. Vinatieri, to make it a sixpoint game. Leaping over that. The ball would be in play now under the new rules. But its out of bounds. So its blocked collins is a phenomenal athlete. Triple jumper, high jumper. And he set the record at the combine, right . Is he the one that went like 117 and you saw it finally pay off. Why do they do the long jump at the combine . We first saw this with kam chancellor, i believe it was, with seattle in the playoffs maybe a year ago. If he makes contact with any of those offensive linemen, then i think its a foul but since he cleared everything, which, of course, he can do al hes a quiet kid from rural mississippi. We said to him last night, did you ever meet brett favre . He said, yes. Contacted his agent. Put him in touch with favre. He said, why dont you come over and fish in my pond. He said, i went over and fished and cleaned him out. Cris cleaned him out. Oh, boy. Al now it comes down to simply recovering an onside kick. If new england recovers, indy cant stop the clock and the patriots can run it out. So put the good hands guys up front. Ball has to travel ten yards. Or be touched by a patriot before the colts can recover it. And mcafee with a high kangaroo hop. That will be taken by gronkowski. And gronkowski is out of bounds at a point around the 35 yard line. And thats going to that will do it. All they needed was a recovery, and they can run the clock out now. Cris hes so mad at himself. He thought he had a touchdown on this play. Goes up and makes the play. You anticipate getting hit here. He doesnt get hit and he takes off. Theres nobody down there. Hes got a chance to go. That was fun talking to tom brady about gronkowski and, you know, we were talking about the chip on his shoulder and all of deflategate and all that stuff. Gronks not like that. Hes one of those guys that hes never had a bad day in his whole life, i dont think. Comes in, never moody. Referee reset the game clock to 1 16. 1 16. Thank you. Al a couple of kneeldowns. You saw the fist pump from belichick. It is another game for these guys, but there is no love lost from the pats and the colts. And we go michele. Michele yeah, but there have been some players lost. Now Matthew Slater out for the game with a leg injury. Getting consoled by a number of teammates on the bench. Medical staff looking at his right knee. Hes been in pain while they were looking at it. Al they paid a price. Theyll go home with a victory. They take on the jets next sunday, and then they had a thursday night game in foxborough against miami. Cris id like to pass along our condolences to stephanie enfanty, lindy enfante, great coach, my coach, great, great man. Al so much made about brady and how angry he would come into the game. A lot of it is just stuff. Weve known tom a long time. We watched him play a ton of games. Why has he not been ready to play and dying to win . Cris he has seen it all in his career. And he has been in the middle of these controversies, and he always seems to come out of the other end of them in this way, by winning football games. Al so back he goes to the locker room and on to the plane, then next week its the jets. Volkswagen postgame report coming your way next. Final score 3427 the patriots.
