Well, yes, the Colts beat the Giants, Sunday night, 26-21. Did Peyton beat his little brother Eli? Eli threw for 2 TDs, Peyton for one. The Giants had easy opportunities to intercept 4 passes. They nabbed one.
In the game I was watching, the Giants offense made stupid mistakes and the Giant field goal kicker missed a routine attempt. True, Eli fumbled a hand off to Barber. (High School football is fun to watch.) In last night's game, the Giants were beaten by the Giants.
The next time you see an NFL game, think of the theory that "Defense wins games. Offense sells tickets. The game's hype surrounded Manning vs. Manning. The outcome went in favor of the team that made the fewer mistakes.
If the Colts want to make it to the superbowl, they can't expect the opposition to make giant mistakes.
