Man, what a game. Chargers looked like Bo Cantrell in the second half and still won. Insane game.

6 INTs and they lose by 2 points, don't know if that's sadder for the Colts or the Chargers.

Indy got fucked on the last drive (and on that long INT run) worse than I've seen in years. Yes, Addai only had the ball down to before the six AFTER he got pulled back. His forward progress with the ball had it right to the spot (it would have been an inch either way as to whether or not he go it).

Either way the Colts were lucky to be in the game in the first place with six interceptions. Norv Turner is the worst coach I've ever seen in my life. My HS coach with that same team and six interceptions would have had a 4 touchdown lead at the end of the game.

The question is, where will the Colts fall on the Power Rankings? I see them as #4, even though in reality I still believe they're the second best team in the league.

Yes, that's the burning question, as we all know how important the Power Rankings are.

Oh I didn't say it's important, I just think it's interesting.

I can't even believe I just watched this game. I still don't get how that call went against the Colts at the last 4th and inches. Nor do I understand Vinatieri blowing that field goal. Holy hell my fantasy team just got knocked out of playoff contention.

I'm not really a Colts or Chargers fan, but can someone explain why there was a review of that Addai first down? It wasn't a challenge right? A few plays earlier there was clearly pass interference on the bomb to the endzone, but that wasn't reviewed.

What are the rules for "officials review"?

Yeah this call was pretty shady too. Live action it looked clean but when I heard Michaels or Madden say he reached for the flag then didn't pull it, then saw the replay, I almost wtfed out loud.

After the 2-minute warning of each half, and in overtime, reviews can only take place if the replay assistant, who sits in the press box and monitors the network broadcast of the game, determines that a play needs review. In those cases, the replay assistant will contact the referee by a specialized electronic pager with a vibrating alert.

well 5. the Last oen I think Peyton just chucked it out of frustration and Moorehead seem to not even care and gave up.

But yes, Norv Turner sucks. 5 INTs in the 1st half and resulted in only 10 points by the offense.

If it wasn't for the Colts weakspot of special teams goes back to last season the chargers would have lost this game.

the INT run called back was rather strange. I could've sworn this season the NFL instructed the refs to let the play go before blowing it dead unless its blatantly obvious.
