    Just looking at the roster and I stumbled upon him. Who is he? he did have 29 sacks in his collegiate career. not bad

    I don't know anything other than him laying a big hit on T.Y in college...at least I think that is the guy

    Trade for butler? Lol why he's a product of NE system and while he is an agressive little guy that man gets dogged at times even worse than an injured vontae WITH safety help 

    Agreed.  It's hard to say he would succeed in another system (I guess you can say the same of anyone else).  I've seen him get burned a couple times before the ball was even snapped

    I don't care if he is on the Pats now, he wont be a factor at all on that team. They have so many receivers and Gronk, Allen will be an after thought on this team. His putrid block on Clowney was the one single HUGE play that cost us the game here IMO. His drop vs Jacks on 4th and 1 was what cost that game too. If he catches that more than likely we go down and win the game. He cant stay healthy either, Doyle is clearly the better TE.

    You're absolutely right.  He was a huge disappointment this past season.  Doyle definitely earned the starting gig

    Yeah Painter was BAD! That was so disappointing to watch us just flush 14-0 down the toilet. Ever since then I haven't been a Polian fan at all. Polian tried to justify why he did it but to me it was nonsense. I can see resting guys to avoid injury if you are 13-1 but not 14-0.

    I don't think they ever said why they didn't want to pursue 16-0,  did they?  I don't even remember anyone on the team calling the FO out or just making a comment about it.

      I think it was because they (FO) considered the fact they could lose somewhere in the playoffs (every team should know they can lose a game as easily as they could win a game).  If they did then they wouldn't have to hear people putting them in the same conversation as the 07 patriots... like some kind of evil karma.  Or they thought that 16-0 would put way too much pressure on Manning.  At that point it's either Super Bowl or go home.

     

    whatever the case I was still disappointed lol

    Really a bad decision not go for 16-0, the team was so close and Polian just ripped it away from the team and fans. People were ripping him so bad on his radio show for a few days that the radio show had to quit taking phone calls. I was so upset I considered boycotting the Playoffs at that point myself. Not sure why he thought it was wise to not go for that, that is a once in a lifetime thing if you are lucky to go 16-0.

    I'm with you 100%.  I felt like we were riding a high at 14-0 and then Curtis Painter threw the ball behind himself for an interceptionfumblesafteytouchdown

    Who was on?

     

    I was coming home from the last Giants game at the old Giants stadium when I found out we were losing perfection. My brother is a huge Jets fan and he couldn't believe we were that stupid to throw away perfection, especially after you beat a team like NE the way we did in the 4th and 2 comeback.

    Appliance?!....Bill Polian was on.  Stupid Auto correct

    09 team should have been undefeated. No reason to lose to the Jets and Bills. Stupid little mistakes in the SB with disastrous results.

    After the jets game...I think.  Some woman called the radio station appliance was on and completely belittled her and accused her of her husband feeding her questions and comments. I Don't know why...but I remember that for some reason

    I was expecting a 200+ yard game too. Still can't believe to this day he only ended up with 20 something yards. It was awesome.

    After that game regardless of Ty Laws 27 picks of manning I knew we were going all the way. 

     

    The next game we held Jamal Lewis to like 50 some yards.  

    Speaking of that game I think the player stats for both teams was almost exactly alike.  Pass attempts, completions, completion percentage,  pass yards,  rush yards,  forced fumbles,  sacks,  interceptions and a few others.

    I think the best modern Colts team was 2005, you could probably make a case for 2007 as well. 

     

    2006 team wasn't even the best in the NFL that year, but the best team does not always win the championship in every sport. We got hot when Bob Sanders came back which obviously helped our horrible run defense out a lot. 

    I remember when he came back and we played KC in the wildcard I was for sure Larry Johnson was going to run all over us.  I was thinking it would be 30 carries for 200yards.  Like you said we got hot when he came back
