Produktbeschreibung

The rivalry between the Indianapolis Colts and New England Patriots of the National Football League is one of the NFL's newly revived rivalries. fueled by the quarterback rivalry between Peyton Manning and Tom Brady, who together have won four of the last six NFL MVP awards (three by Manning),and four of the last seven Super Bowl victories (three by the Patriots), and both are noted for their organizational excellence. Tom Brady received his first start against the Colts after an injury to then-starter Drew Bledsoe, and proceeded to defeat the Colts in his first six games against them, including the 2003 AFC Championship game and a 2004 AFC Divisional game. The Colts won the next three matches, notching two regular season victories and a win in the 2006 AFC Championship game on the way to their win in Super Bowl XLI. On November 2, 2008, the Colts won 18-15 in a game that was one of the reasons the Patriots failed to make the playoffs as a result of a lesser conference record against that of the third seeded Miami Dolphins and the sixth seeded Baltimore Ravens, not to mention the head-to-head record against the Colts.
