colts vs packers 2012

[CR91]

 

Its the entire week 5 game vs the packers back in luck's rookie season

 

mods if I cant share this, lock the thread

 

[Luck is Good]

I love this game

[IinD]

Only game from the Luck era still on the DVR...

[Arodgers12]

This game still hurts but happy for Indy and their fans that day.

Reggie Wayne put us on his back. Monster game from Reggie. He was around for 2012 - 2014, knew how to win, how to get open despite lack of top end speed, tutor the young wide outs, and it is not a co-incidence we missed the playoffs in 2015 and 2016.

Thanks for taking about 40 minutes away from my work day LOL

 

I should have been making calls and setting appointments but somethings are more important

 

The life of an insurance agent

Great stuff! This game, the Chiefs comeback in the Playoffs in 2013, and winning at Denver in the Playoffs in 2014 are Luck's 3 defining games so far in his career.

That was one of those special games I will always remember.

IMO the best game Reggie ever played.

 

And yes, once Luck lost his 3rd down go to possession guy, the comebacks and magic seemed to run out.  Hopefully someone else will eventually fill that role.  

 

Better yet, we build a real defense and running game so we're not coming from behind every week.

I think beating Peyton in his homecoming as well as Seattle can round out the top 5.

I agree.  

 

He had that Wild-Card game against Denver in 2005: 10 rec. 221 yds. 2 TDs.  That was the playoffs, so you could argue it was a more important game, but that game was over by halftime.  Reggie was also in his prime.

 

I would bet that the game against the Packers probably meant more to Reggie.  13 rec. 212 yds. and the game-winning TD, in the twilight of his career, in a comeback win, to honor his sick coach, who he has known pretty much his entire adult life, then to give him the game ball in the hospital...  That was special.

I was at that game. I was pretty mad at first and then that changed. Amazing game for Reggie too.

I agree 100%, I would put the at Denver Playoff game at #1 because that got us to the Title Game and Andrew played really well vs Von Miller's healthy Defense. Peyton wasn't 100% but he still even put Denver up early 7-0 with a TD pass. That win shocked me, I thought Denver would win that one.

1. At Denver 2014 Divisional Round

2. Chiefs 2013 WildCard game - came back from 28 points down

3. Packers game in 2012

4. Denver - Peyton's homecoming game in 2013, that was a great game

5. Seahawks - beating Wilson in a shootout, the season Seattle won the SB

-That is my Top 5. All signature wins and what is funny is many people have said we couldn't win outside of our Division in those 3 seasons 2012-2014. Those are 5 great wins

Almost forgot that Erik Walden was on the Packers back then. And also, 8:55, Trent Richardson TD run. Probably the longest of his career, haha.

Nice top 5 but for me I would change out the seattle game for that detroit game in 2012 now that was a thriller

You must have forgotten how awful Denver looked during the end of the regular season that year. Broncos just didn't have that same chemistry and flow that took them to the previous Super Bowl. That, and Peyton was bordering on becoming the flabby QB we all saw in 2015. Our win didn't surprise me at all, it actually would have been a disappointment had we lost that one.

UghNGH... (I hope you successfully make that noise, it took me a minute to type it properly)  I HATE that game... but for all the wrong reasons.  It's my own fault.  I was the fool that got mad, and thought the game was over and decided to turn off the TV and go do other stuff...  

 

I made the most of my free time.  I don't regret my alternative plans.  But when I saw that the Colts came back in epic fashion, and I willingly missed it...  All I had to do was leave the TV on in the background... But then I had to watch the replays on the internet to try to piece together what the heck happened...  Ugh. 

 

OMG, never again.  I will never, ever, NEVER AGAIN turn off a Colts game before that clock hits 00:00.  Even if it's 49-0 in the 4th quarter, Luck can win.  And I will NOT miss the game where Luck comes back from 49-0 in the 4th quarter.  Not me.  No sir.  Uh-uh.  I will suffer through every agonizing loss from here on out, just in case...
