Why were the Colts unable to keep pace offensively?The Colts looked sharp on an early drive that resulted in the game's opening touchdown. After that, the offense got completely out of sync.At first, it was the Colts' young receivers that struggled. Pierre Garcon caught just one of the five passes targeted to him during the first half. Austin Collie dropped what was sure to be a decent gain.It didn't take long for the erratic play to spread around the offense Manning would look good on one pass, then one hop the next Dallas Clark's production evaporated for half the game. He had only one pass thrown his way the entire second quarter even though the Patriots weren't doing anything special to take him out of the game.When the Colts did show signs of life, it was because Manning would hook up with Reggie Wayne.

The 20 yard strike to Wayne late in the second quarter kept the Colts alive.  6 . What about adjustments going into the second half? What happened to the Patriots offensively in the third quarter? If the Patriots made a mistake in their game plan, it was letting their foot off the gas in the second half tokyo motor show . The Patriots seemed content to go back to the draw play and short passes in an attempt to control the clock tokyo stock exchange . They still spread the field, but not nearly as much as they did in the first half.The Colts' defense also stiffened quite a bit in the second half to prevent the Patriots from scoring a decisive blow.First, Antoine Bethea picked off Brady in the end zone.Uncharacteristically, Brady stared down Moss on a post route kings of leon . In the replay, Bethea can be seen breaking on the ball before Brady releases it.Next, impressive young linebacker Philip Wheeler striped Laurence Maroney a yard out from the end zone. The ball bounced into the end zone and was recovered by Gary Brackett.The third quarter was a series of missed chances for the Patriots. They didn't look as sharp as they did in the first place, but more importantly, they weren't nearly as fluid as they were earlier in the game.

Had the Patriots scored just once in the third quarter, then the miracle ending may never have happened.Even though they failed to score, the Patriots did dominate time of possession in the third, which limited the Colts' opportunities. 5 . Why couldn't the Colts capitalize on the Patriots' third quarter mistakes?The third quarter was the low point for the Colts offense Only twice did they get the ball tokyo motor show . Their first possession was killed when the ball seemed to slip out of Manning's hand tokyo stock exchange .

At this point, who was the main Colts killer?When most people think of the Patriots, they think of Brady, Moss, and Welker.Brady is Brady He seems cool under fire. I thought he played a very good game, but I also thought he missed some opportunities when the Colts seemed out of position Any quarterback can put up decent numbers if given the time.

A player of Brady's quality can kill you, which is what he did for most of the game . He wasn't the difference though.Welker, in my opinion, may be one of the league's most overrated wide receivers tokyo motor show . Only once did Welker make a quality play, which was the punt return setting up the last of the Patriots' touchdowns.  But even that play was helped by a missed holding call (which was probably the only bad call on what was a really well officiated game otherwise).Welker's game plan is simply find a spot in the zone and get open tokyo stock exchange . Welker is a quality, consistent receiver, but he's not the superstar he's hyped to be.That's because the real superstar on this team is Randy Moss.As good as Brady was, it was Moss that made the Patriots go . Often it was Moss, not Welker, that Brady would go to on a key play Moss did it all He went deep He went over the middle He caught key third down plays Both of his touchdowns were classic Moss.
