You know what I’ve said before. People will talk about the pressure, talk about the tension, talk about playing history instead of the team in front of you.
But you know what? If you’re gonna go out to the field, you might as well win the game.
And if you’re gonna play a supposed statement game (note: Second Statement Monday in three weeks), then — say it with me — you might as well make a statement.
11-0. A sloppy game. But an easy win over a good team.
By the way — I was hard on John Madden earlier, I stick by that. However, he had an uncanny good game tonight, and said something that no announcers have voiced, something we’ve said here, often.
Bob Sanders, the reason the Colts defense goes.
Thank you, John. I’ll go one further. Bob Sanders, NFL Defensive MVP.
