Indianapolis vs. New England "Manning's Revenge" (2006 AFC Championship) NFL Classics 

Agreed. You’re in or you’re out(period)

Agreed

I forgot all about that rule !!!!!! 😂

yeah that rule was retarded now that I think about it. got my pack in the playoffs in 03 tho lol

Facts

Career*

Best playoff game of his career. Overall, pretty sub-par in the postseason

Proved his greatness en route to his first championship!

He’s got heart. After he threw that pick 6, I thought the Colts were done for. Goners

Robert Hiland If Reggie Wayne fumbled it, it would’ve never counted cuz of roughing the passer

Dallas Clark is such a Fox

As a Colts fan, This is my Fav game ever as well. It is so hard to beat good teams with the run D we had.

Manning's passes were so much more accurate compared to Brady's.

@@Jay-ot3cq despite he had a picksix?

How about " The Colts win the super bowl"?

​@@brandonohara4122 That's even better

Wow. Yeah. That’s right. Peyton was better at beating brady and the pats in the playoffs and brady was better at beating peyton and his team during the regular season.

small sample size - 2 games

@@animalmother4 After 2004, Brady was 0-5 in the playoffs against the Manning's

@@rios9000 right but his comment was referring to peyton. the pats played peyton in the playoffs in 2013 and 2015 seasons.

I mean it was only twice more lol

No fucking way lol

@@anthonyhutchins2300 And how the fuck do you know this? Manning loves the game and could take hits. If not for his neck injuries, the odds are he would have kept playing. Don't sit there and act like you know what you're talking about because you clearly don't.

@@anthonyhutchins2300 Manning had never missed one game before he had his neck surgery.

Me too!! I'll never forget ❤

Intercepted! Marlins got it! We're going to the superbowl! We're going to the superbowl!

I had colts -3.5. What a game 😂

This pretty much was the Super Bowl that year. Colts and Pats were the two best teams.

@@obersports Chargers were the best team that year actually, they just choked in the playoffs against this very Patriots team, losing due to a fumbled interception and a last second missed field goal.

@@yetz2291 Colts weren’t going to be denied.

Every damn time the afc championship came it was a Super Bowl with these 2 teams. I hated they were in the same division and wished they would’ve met in Super Bowl all those year lol

@@yetz2291 I agree. Also I would argue that the Colts the year before were much better and chocked against the Steelers in the divisional round. (Nick Harper, who got stappwd in the thigh by his GF the night before the game, recovered a Jerome Bettis fumble (oat the goal line on what looked to be a game sealing td, and appeared to be headed toward the end zone, but Big Ben made just enough of a play to get him to the ground, and then Vanderjagt missed the game winning field goal) And the 2009 Colts who lost to NO in the SB . Were better than both (14-0 before Caldwell benched Manning and key starters in the final 2 games)

Felt better than the Super bowl win, god I hated those patriots😤

@@montellrose5765 we were so close lol

This was basically the superbowl. Let's be real here. The bears lead by Rex Grossman isn't that much of a threat

@@loganpaul3654either way if it was the vs the 2006 Saints, Manning would’ve torched them.

Well, I'm so glad the Manning family exist in this world. Because of Archie, both Peyton and Eli are true legends of Football. No one knows if another Manning will get drafted

In theory 11

Yeah literally 11 rings

@@davidsantoselmellodelamarg4923 Cooper son Archer is a fucking beast too. Depends where he goes for college. I think LSU

@@davidsantoselmellodelamarg4923 Peyton Manning is a legend and possibly the greatest quarterback of all time. Eli Manning IS NOT A LEGEND!!!

lol, sure he is

This the Game that made the Patriots go out and get Moss and wes.

Brady is the goat

Peyton manning= 🐐

If manning had Brady's defense the yeah. He probably gets more rings.

pats would've been confused after the game..they finished the game with less points than the other team

We're still winning. What have the Colts done since 2006?. Fuck the Colts, enjoy your participation Banner!.

Nice language cheatriot fan. Typical

@@mrdm1967ify howd the 2 superbowls to eli feel and howd that philly special hit ya ?

@@mattmason6953 Go fuck yourself, peasant. #BOWTOTHEDYNASTY

Hopefully Richardson will become one 🙏

i like the 2009 reg season game where the pats went for it on 4th and 2

Disagree we played so many great games before this one I think this put an element of parity on the colts side as the Patriots dominated the rivalry before it

Uhhh no. Thats why this game is coined 'Mannings Revenge.' The title implies there was a rivalry leading up to this game. Which there definitely was.

You must be younger

this shit was a rivalry waaaaay before this game.

If it makes you feel any better, if he lost the ball it would have been called back with the roughing the passer penalty.

Don't get me wrong I think its bs to blame just Manning for those losses. But honestly, the label only died for two years. It came right back after Tracy Porter's pic six in the SB against NO. I wish Manning would have had a big WR to complement Wayne or Harrison. Indy's smaller WRs got pushed around too much in the post season. And manning was a statue in the pocket. If they weren't where he wanted the ball to go originally, he wasn't the type to buy time

@@mariomanningfan Manning’s career playoff record is 14-13; definitely many games his teams should’ve won and also his teams were one and done in the playoffs 9 times

@@devinjerryfreedomisfree4599 we'll never really know at this point but i wonder. Were those 9 one and dones the result of Manning and his WRs dragging a bad team through a weak AFC South to the post season where they were exposed to actual competition? Or was it that Manning's legendary preparation was everyone else's playoff mode and once everyone jumped into the playbook like he did, he had no extra advantage athletically or otherwise? Though he's still my favorite QB, I have definitely come to realize as I age, that he is on a short list but there were better QBs. Though indy was a perrineal 6-10, 4-12 team before Manning arrived, a regular 12-4/13-3 with him, and now they seem headed back to the "getting a wildcard is a great year" kind of team. Like the cavs with/without lebron

I think the colts coaching staff should get a lot of the blame. At some point you have to completely change the gameplan/playcalling.

@@benmaloy9757 yeah but honestly Manning WAS the offense. Nobody Polian or irsay hired could tell Manning what to do. Dungy made it work but it def took an understanding coach to lead a team with Peyton.

11 Superbowls... Peyton beat him in the 06/13/15 AFC championship games and Eli in the SB 07/11

Thanks to the MAnning Brothers, Brady doesn't have 11 super bowls. Eli Beat him in 2 SBs, and Peyton beat him in 3 AFC champs. Remember, QBs don't play each other.

Tommy Rosati comments like this show pure ignorance

@@jamessmith-pq9zr ??? Qbs don't play each other, I stick by that. When are peyton manning and topm brady on the same field at once??

Mitch Tribisky will be a top 5 QB of all time!!!

James Rando lol

Brady is maybe top 10. Not top 5. System QB who had great defenses.

Matt Mason your a idiot

@@mattmason6953 brady is number 1 lmao what a clown

46th and keystone here.. the Wayne near fumble uggh!!! But deciding to take 3 at the end of the 1st half momentum changed with the drive, thinking back so glad we didn't go for it, although Wayne was interfered,

I believe its pronounced jiggas

God, that Pittsburgh loss.

And let's not forget that if Wayne ends up losing that ball, it's yet another horrible loss for Peyton at the hands of Tom Brady. The narrative about Peyton was never true, but imagine if somehow, a Wayne fumble beat the Colts. You better believe the idiots on the media would have continued the "Peyton can't win the big one!" talk, with a large dose of "Sure, he might have led them back, but it was his fault they were behind in the first place!" Come to think of it, why do any of us even bother listening to the sports media? This is an industry that still pays the likes of Skip Bayless and Colin Cowherd.

@@rappcu Idiot kicker apparently got liquored up again.

One qb dinked and dunked, one did not You're kidding yourself if Brady is an "exciting" or "thrilling" player

james smith bruh what Brady had no one to throw deep to this year watch the next year with moss that was exciting

You are not no Colts fans stop it

I remember questioning whether it’d ever happen at this point. I mean it’s 21-3, he had 1 TD to 6 INTs in the playoffs to that point & the defense/run game had really saved him the 1st 2 games. I think all that plus his many playoff struggles the 8 prior seasons is what made the comeback that much more amazing.

What game was this? You mean 2014?

@@TheLirJEt86It is 2014. Colts never played Cleveland in 2016

With a good QB, better WR's and pass rushers..then they'll be ready

not even close, delusional

@@earthpart3 he's right

so much for that

"What was frustrating to watch about the difference between the teams these two were surrounded with (including the coaches): Brady has a massive pocket around him at all times, and never has to waver from standing straight up with feet planted. When he throws, his receivers are somehow always WIDE open with endless green around them on the screen." - Are you seriously making the case that Brady had the better offense around him this year? Really? The Colts had 5 pro-bowlers that year while the Pats had 2. They had 3 all pros on offense. Manning always had better talent offensively from 2001-2015 even when he went to that loaded Broncos team. Hell let's be honest the Pats defense didn't even have a player as good as Freeney/Bob Sanders in 2006. The Colts were supposed to win this game. "In the post-season, where he inappropriately gets far too much criticism, he watched as Caldwell called a timeout to give the Chargers a win" - Was that the game where both LT and Philip Rivers missed and Peyton still lost? Remember the game where he threw 5 interceptions - 3 of them being inside the 7 yard line? "Pierre Garcon drop a wide open pass that puts them up 17-3 at half against the Saints if it's caught" - Manning threw the pick 6 that lost them the game. What are you talking about lol? "the highest percentage FG kicker in history to that point in Van Der Jagt miss a 29-yarder against Pittsburgh" - Oh right the game where the refs did everything in their power to hand the win to Indy? The same game that never should've been in doubt if Jerome Bettis just protects the football at the 1 yard line. The game where Peyton only could muster up 18 points at home in the RCA dome. "against a Belichick defense, and led perhaps the greatest comeback in AFCCG history (2006)" - The Colts were supposed to win that game. They had the better defense at that point in the playoffs and had the far better offensive fire power as well as being at home. The fact that Brady almost won a shootout with his best WR being Jabar Gaffney speaks volumes. Of course the next year when Brady finally got some weapons as opposed to scrubs he set records. Brady was always better. Brady also saved Belichick's career. Check Belichicks record as a HC without Brady. He's trash. "He wasn't a different guy from regular season to post-season" - Actually he was. Go check the advanced stats. He was significantly worse in the playoffs. Manning was great but he is who he is. "Brady, on the other hand, was the beneficiary of a great franchise that also happened to fleece the entire league for the better part of 18 years." - Fleece the league in what way? Sure the Pats were a smart team but many of those Patriots teams weren't that talented and usually had mediocre skill position players. If Bill hadn't been a penny pincher they probably would've won a couple more titles.

Wow that’s a good analysis!! The year they won the SB happen to be my first year watching them and I was 9 years old! It was just the crazy plays Peyton and Marvin would make us what made me fall in love with football

So true! Colts were the better team except for KR. The year before they were the best team in the NFL except for an idiot kicker. :)

No he wouldn't, that same play had roughing the passer
