As a fan of both teams I did not want to think it could happen again. Those Colts were awesome. 14-2 and many said they would win the SB. It might have been the best Colts team I ever saw. The death of James Dungy sucked a lot of the spirit. Also Peyton was rested far too long. The passing game was taken out of sync. I always told Colts fans not to use this as an excuse though. The hungrier and more physical Steelers won the game. They then went onto win the SB and I sense almost deja vu with the Giants. Also the refs were on the Colts side vs. the Steelers. They tried to help the Colts win and after the game Peyton was blamed for the loss even though he was pounded most of the game. A year later though the Colts won the SB as a lesser regular season team. Maybe the Packers can do the same.</blockquote>
