Super Bowl XLIV: Saints 31 Colts 17 (F)

Jenkins again.

These WR screens haven't worked all night.

it THE Ohio State Mr. Nance :)

Sims twice credited Vilma with the nice tackle behind the line of scrimage.

Peyton missed a wide open Clark on 3rd down when he forced the deep one...not like him

 

[OCBucksFan]

Good game so far

Malcolm has made a huge differnce tonight..plays that won't come up on the stat sheet. Average yards per carry are way down when he's on the field....not surprising when you put a CB in who isn't Deion Danders light....between run support and shutting Austin Collie down, it's been fun to watch.

From what I can tell thus far, the Saints are strictly using Malcolm against Collie in the slot. If Collie isn't in the game, neither is Malcolm. He's playing very well....

Stover from 51 yards sounded like a bad idea from the start.

That failed WR screen blew up the entire drive. They should forget about those for the rest of the night.

idiot kicker.....

And Nuge can't find a job.....seriously....

Well, Stover started over one of the most clutch kickers in NFL history, don't think Nuge would've. Stover's proven his value. :p

Drew Brees is unbelievable. Malcolm is looking good too. I think they've thrown at Collie once when I've seen Malcolm on him, turned out to be a tackle for loss.

This is one of the worst displays of tackling - by the Colts - that I've seen in a championship football game.

 

[buckeyebri]

Colts are giving up three roster spots to kickers where Nuge can do kickoffs and FGs...

No doubt....

Malcolm has been given the "Wes Welker" assignement. It's pretty clear all Malcolm has done all week is watch Austin Collie on film and prepare for covering the slot. It's been fairly simple so far...if Collie is in the gme, so is Malcolm. If Collie is out of the game, so is Malcolm....

 

[jlb1705]

Seriously, the Saints can go the rest of the night just throwing it quickly to the edge. Indy can't stop it until it goes for at least 5 yards.

 

[Jake]

I wanted the Saints to get the two to set up possibly the first OT in SB history. Not gonna happen.

 

[sandgk]

Any bets on whether that 2-point call will be appealed by Payton?

No offense to Nuge, but he hasn't been very reliable at kicking FGs in the pros.

Wasn't Gay covering Collie to start the game? I don't think Collie has had any positive yardage since Malcolm has started covering him. Could definitely be wrong here.
