Honestly, I just have to take a moment and give a huge thank you to who ever is running the nfl RUclips and posting these full games on here. Thank you
@@aaronbradley3232 You are such a douchbag. There seems to be legions of 'its called brain, use it' annoying Patriot fans, perpetually in middle school. Hes saying thanks to whoever working in the NFL is responsible for making them available.
I’m from Indiana brother that team was legendary here when they finally grabbed the chip it was a huge year and a long time coming. They had already lost Faulk signed Addai and that entire team was Amazing Freeney Mathis Coleman Wayne Harrison big hit Bob Sanders it was beautiful
2023 and this is what I’m watching I’m from CT I’m a colts fan and I remember watching this game surrounded by people just berating me all first half and then slowly watching that confidence wane. These were the two best QBs we’ll ever have the privilege of seeing compete.
When Peyton returned to Indianapolis as a Denver Bronco, the home fans applauded him. Even though he was no longer a Colt the people of Indianapolis still appreciated what he'd done for them.
@@JoeSmith-hv7oe Andrew Luck was close. It's just too bad his career was cut short by injuries. Peyton Manning had a much better supporting cast than Andrew Luck ever did.
This was THE rivalry and will always be the best rivalry in my book. No other rivalry will EVER come close to this. Manning is THE GOAT in my humble opinion.
I was 18 years old. My family and I were screaming jumping up and down. SO SO freaking happy. We drove like 25 mins to downtown Indianapolis. It was like the entire downtown area turned into a massive party. People were dancing on cars and everything. One of the best moments I can remember in my life.
those were the best days. Beeing a Peyton Manning's fan and my dad beeing a Tom Brady's fan, those games were even more important than the super bowl. There isn't gonna be a rivalry like that in a long time.
I have never seen a QB performance like this one. Manning was getting blasted by pressure on every play and still made play after play after play. Some just jaw dropping throws.
FUN FACT: This year in the playoffs The Colts faced the number 1(Baltimore) number 2(New England) and number 3(Chicago) defenses in the league and beat all of them. Peyton Manning actually did this twice in his career! Always a tough road
Your stats are wrong. He had 3 TD passes 7 ints and he actually had 4 total TDs because he had a rushing TD on a QB sneak against the Patriots. He also threw for 1034 yards and completed 63.4% of his passes.
As a packers fan i even think this is one of the great games ever even though manning was the 90s atlanta braves when it came to the playoffs where he won once with the colts but had some ugly first playoff game losses after all those 12 -4 every year it seemed great regular seasons
yes !!!! brady , peyton , reggie wayne , marvin harrison, robert mathis , dwight freeney , tedy bruschi , rodney harrison , kevin faulk, jeff Saturday, logan mankins , bob sanders , richard seymour , vince wilfork , gary brackett ,
Brady v. Manning is the NFL's version of Bird v. Magic in the NBA. It is a rivalry like these that bring and attract fans to the game and keeps them for the next generation.
Bob Lamey. I love his calls and I'm not a Colts fan. He had a great one for Harbaugh's Hail Mary in the '95 AFC title game against Pittsburgh and when an opponent makes a big play, he sounds like the bearer of bad news. Homer, but honest.
This game is easily the greatest game in Colts history, and honestly deserves to be remembered as on of the greatest all time. I think because Indianapolis is a small market team this game doesn't get as much respect; if Dallas or Philadelphia or Chicago or New York were in it, it would have way more respect.
Pure nostalgia. I was nine years old when this happened. Here I am 22 years old now and still getting butterflies rewatching it. Thanks for the upload.
Bob sanders was so good it’s such a damn shame injuries were so tough on him. He coulda been one of the greats....correction he is a great but he coulda been elite
This is coming from a diehard Bill's fan. Its absolutley crazy to think this was 14yrs ago and Brady is yet another Championship game(14th) and they were saying back then how Brady and Manning were long time rivals. Its absurd to think about how long Brady has played and been just that good. Might not ever see anything like him again.

Same here. Between Peyton leaving the Colts, Irsay shitting on the fans in 2011 to get the #1 draft pick, and the bullshit kneeling I don't even care to watch football anymore except for these games on YT I can pick and choose.
Lets appreciate that we got to see this game filled with legend's. I don't care what people say who's better, both Manning and Brady are top 5 qb of all time. As colts fan I respect TB 12 for his greatness along with our legendary qb Peyton Manning
mike lewis Exactly. Neither is Peyton Manning according to ESPN, NFL Films, Sports Illustrated, CBS Sports, Fox Sports, and most former and current players.
@@sheepdavis not to mention the Patriots coming back from the 28 to 3 deficit in under three quarters not to mention 87 for the patriots who does not deserve a name dropping Too Short touchdown passes and the uneven officiating and the Colts defense that the announcers kept saying we're getting tired but weren't they hung in there even though it was a certainly not Manning's best day did she see that roughing-the-passer penalty I guess she can't brush the quarterback with your little finger
One more thing I think this game is most likely fixed and I really only think there's only been two playoff games that have ever been fixed just it never sat right with me also this was the Superbowl everyone knew who ever won this game was going to win the Super Bowl against the Rex Grossman Peyton Manning because he was considering both retirement and suicide and I heard he threw a hissy fit in the commissioner's office which ended up and him defecating on the floor and smearing it all over the walls
I don't understand the persistent need to argue which quarterback is/was better, Manning or Brady, as if it actually matters. The sheer number of intangibles that affected the outcomes of their careers should give people pause before declaring one clearly better than the other. Aspects of their careers that varied and had countless effects on the games they played in (and didn't play in) included coaching, offensive lines, defense, roster depth, injuries, timely field goals (Adam Vinatieri clinched two of the Patriots' Superbowl victories), etc.
C'mon Dennis - you are making too much sense! There is no room for being logical and rational on YT!!! How dare you! In all seriousness, you are 100% correct.
Dennis Bartsch Exactly! Can't we just appreciate watching two of the all-time greats being inextricably linked throughout their careers? How many generations get served up the treat we did getting to watch Brady vs. Manning all these years? Peyton would not have been as great as he was without Tom, and Tom would not have been as great without Peyton.
Dude whatever Peyton was a stud the minute he took his first snap from under center. Brady couldn't even beat out Drew Bledsoe for the starting qb job and was a caretaker for his first 2 to 3 years and didn't start throwing the ball regularly until Moss came to town. Tom's career is linked to Peyton's forever but Peyton Manning stands alone. Stop acting like he was a scrub until Brady came along with a defense in Denver he carved the Patriots up special teams couldn't save him then. Montana was a better qb than Brady, you never hear anyone say "why can't we appreciate Aikman and Montana for their greatness"
Hey Dennis I love seeing your two year old comments you should feel like an ass don't you feel like an ass you said something about how many games played in Brady how many games not play again not Brady if you are a true football fan and woke up and realize that your comment about Vinatieri winning two Super Bowls you would actually Shake Yourself I missed something in both of those games if both of those games Brady shot down with less than 3 minutes with the lead the defense let the opposing teams go right down the field and score Brady and both games had to get off the bench after scoring touchdowns with less than three minutes now he has to get off the bench with less than two minutes in both f****** games and bring the team down the field into field-goal range and my friend they did not get the Bulls at the 40 or 50 yard line either if you I'll be true football f****** fan you would stop your f****** lying or coming out with b******* comments we all know well loss patch fans knew he was already the greatest but now everybody knows he's the greatest and don't come back with cheating b****
Ive been a die hard colts fan my entire life. I was 13 when they played this game. After so many years of playoff heartbreak, I didnt think I'd ever see the colts in a super bowl. So once those magic words were spoken, "THE COLTS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!" I started to cry tears of pure joy! My childhood dream had actually came true. I would have given anything to have been in the RCA Dome that night. Thank you so much for posting this game. I feel like i got to relive that magical night all over again.
Most important win in Colts franchise history and in Peyton Manning's career. Manning isn't even a top 5 QB all-time if the Colts lose this game, despite all the regular season records.
Notice how Brady nor Belicheck congratulated or shook hands with the Colts. Peyton is looking for Brady at midfield and then he tries to meet up with Bill in the middle of the field and Bill just blows him off, barely even looks at him. Brady runs off the field quicker than the Pistons did when they lost to the Bulls lol. Everybody always talking about how gracious and professional the Patriots are. Except when they lose.
Brady went right over to Manning and then left. Brady probably wanted to get off the field because he threw what probably still stands has his worst interception of his career. Belichick embraced Dungy. What more do you want from anyone?
I play QB and I think its really unfair to say: Brady vs Manning. I just can throw the ball if my OL give time to recover the defense, if my receivers run the routes correctly. And football teams win games with special teams, punt returning and with a good kicker. Football teams win games with DL, with smart safeties, with gifted CBs and with heart of lion LBs. QB is a huge position, but FOOTBALL TEAM is just COMPLETE with EVERYONE. CHEERS
My greatest/happiest moment as a colts fan...I burnt this game onto DVD...I have no need for that now as I can watch this any time I want now on RUclips...Thank you!!
Did you know... Adam Vinatieri played for both Peyton Manning and Tom Brady. Adam Vinatieri had kicked 2 game winning field goals in Superbowl 36 and 38. Ricky Proehl had tied the game with a minute left in both Superbowl 36 and 38. Ricky Proehl record 71 yards and 1 TD in both of his 2 Superbowl losses. Ricky Proehl won Superbowl XLI with Adam Vinatieri who had kicked the game winner against him in 2 Superbowls.
Steelers fans thought at the moment Marlin Jackson intercepted Tom Brady, "God, I wish that were us". In time, the Steelers will beat the Patriots in the postseason, but on that cold night in January, 2007, it was the Colts' time!!!
Dallas Clark was ahead of his time man. And what really speaks to how good of a receiving TE he was, he was only 6’3” now today all the good pass catching TE are freak athletes with ridiculous attributes
This game changed everything for Peyton. Everyone tried to say he wouldn't make it to the Super Bowl but not only did he make it to this one he won it went to three more. Total record of 2-2.
New England's defense choked on the final Colt possession. Two wide-open receivers, a 15-yard penalty, and finally, they couldn't stop Indy from running it up the middle on 3 straight plays.
Damn at 21:10, "maybe Mike Tomlin in Pittsburgh, don't know about that one yet". It kind of amazes me how much has happened in the last decade of football
I remember being 16 years when this game was played... I wanted Peyton to win to bad after being heart broken the year before losing to the Steelers over a missed kick...I never been so happy after a game in my life.... Tom Brady is one of the best but Peyton Manning is THE best
Peyton Manning never showed up when it mattered most (don't give me "his" two Super Bowl wins.... He threw 3 TD's and 7 INT's in the 2006-2007 Playoff Run..... His defense gave up 16, 18, and 10 points in 3 games in 2015..... Manning was a great regular season QB that had a few great playoff games (2003 Wild Card, 2003 Divisional, 2004 Wild Card, 2013 AFC Championship) outside of those games Peyton came up short in a lot of big moments..... Brady has elevated his play during some of the biggest moments in NFL history.... down 28-3.... Down by 10 to the Seattle team that beat the breaks off Manning the Year before.... needing to drive his team down twice to win Super Bowls with walk off field goals.... Down by 10 to Jacksonville.... Driving to win @ KC..... Even his loss in the 2015 AFC Championship game was more remarkable than half of Peyton's career
I like how that Colt who intercepted Brady's lasr pass went to the ground, not running it back. That's what te Chargers should have done in their famous playoff game with the Patriots. Caused Schottenheimer's job with thatstupid, unnecessary fumble.
INTERCEPTED! MARLIN JACKSON! MARLINS GOT IT, WE’RE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL! Legendary, if you’ve never heard it look it up. Marlin Jackson is a legend in Indy for one play. But it was a damn good one,
I've never understood why the patriots got rid of Vinatieri, he's a legend on that team, beloved by fans, and got them the win in two superbowls and the tuck rule game. Plus he's still an elite kicker 10 years after the trade. Don't get me wrong, Gostkowski's great, maybe even one of the best in the whole league, but Vinatieri's one of the best of all time.
One of the few mistakes I would say the Pats made in the Brady-Belichick era. Vinatieri is closing in on the most field goals made all time and most points scored by any one player all time.
Because 1) Vinatieri couldn’t kick-off yet he was demanding top of the line money. Belichick was fed up with giving up 10-15 yards every kickoff and wasn’t going to pay Vinatieri top money while also paying a kickoff specialist. And Belichick’s left-footed punter fetish precluded him from hiring punters who could also kick-off, as most of his punters are specialists, plus again why pay Vinatieri top money just to have the punter do one of his jobs. Gostkowski could do both jobs for way less money. And 2) There was no way to know in 2006 that Vinatieri would still be a top of the line kicker in 2018. He very well may go on to be the oldest player ever, something you just can’t really bank on. Heck Belichick doesn’t even believe that Brady will stay good and wanted to keep Jimmy G this year. At the time you expected the Colts to get 4 or 5 good years out of him, and it seemed like he was very overpaid at the time (Vinatieri has turned out to be worth every penny to Indy, although he did miss the 2009 Super Bowl run which is a small blemish)
@@KillyJoe and just like I predicted in that comment Belichick successfully drove off Brady. Unreal how big that man’s ego can be sometimes, it’s the Bill Parcells in him. Sean Peyton is the same way. Imo the Pats should have reloaded for a last run with Brady instead of tying his hands and starting a rebuild. Brady now going to show the coaching staff that said “we could win with about 8-10 other QBs” and constantly leaked that he was “declining” that he is not in fact declining. Jettisoning vinatieiri was the correct move. Jettisoning Brady not so much
This was the zenith of the Patriots/Colts rivalry from 2001-2010. The two best teams of that decade, arguably the two best QB's of all time, and everyone on both sides played their best in the same game. That RARELY happens in a rivalry game, especially with the Super Bowl on the line. This game was a treasure to any football fan.
16 years later to the day I had to re-watch it. One of best NFL games of all time and the best of the 17 Brady-Manning match-ups. What a joy to see the Colts comeback to win this game and eventually go on to win SB XLI 🙏😁😁
I was living in an apartment when this game aired. After the Pick Six, I walked to the Burger King, thinking, "It's over." Told the people behind the counter about the score and their jaws dropped. My jaw dropped just as much when I watched the rest of the game. Good one to witness.
This was my favorite football game of all time. Watching Manning was such a good time for me. Now I find myself, for the first time ever, secretly wanting Brady to get another ring.
The '06 Patriots were tough overachievers, but offensively deficient and devoid of playmakers. Brady nearly led this team on an incredible title run in a year where the AFC was stacked. The Colts had weapons everywhere though, and this time refused to let the Pats off the hook down the stretch.
Hahaha, I remember watching this game live and my cousin and I always laugh about how big Caldwell's eyes got after he dropped that pass when no one was even lined up on him in coverage. Good times. Good times!
Lucas oil stadium is an absolute first class stadium and I really enjoy attending games there......but damn, that dome field advantage was so fun at the rca dome. God it would get so damn loud in there. I miss that
1:21:38 That TD pass from Brady to Gaffney back of the endzone, just a play after he should've had an easy TD pass to Caldwell that was dropped, should be on Brady's top plays of his career. Both plays he was great at moving in the pocket to keep it alive and find an open WR.
I remember watching this game in my room when I was in grade school. Coming off that Chargers win in San Diego where practically no one was giving the Patriots a shot in that game, I thought there was no way this team could lose no matter who they played next. Yea, Bill and Brady have five rings together, but they'll always look back at the missed opportunities to separated themselves from everyone else. You can go back and say that the two SB losses to the Giants were wasted opportunities, but this game always sticks out for a couple reasons: that year the Patriots already beat the Bears and held them to 10 points that game as well; in this game, they were up 21-6 and couldn't maintain that lead.
Honestly, I just have to take a moment and give a huge thank you to who ever is running the nfl RUclips and posting these full games on here. Thank you

Remembering to when Patriots vs Colts was one of the best rivalries in Pro football history
Manning vs Brady rivalry. Colt's fans didn't care about NE until 2002 and they haven't cared since 2011 when Peyton was cut.
@@indy_go_blue6048 thats false, im from indy, all my friends are colts fans and they still hate the patriots, the pats just dont gaf about the colts
More like Manning vs. Brady. It didn't matter if Manning was with the Colts or the Broncos.
I’m from Indiana brother that team was legendary here when they finally grabbed the chip it was a huge year and a long time coming. They had already lost Faulk signed Addai and that entire team was Amazing Freeney Mathis Coleman Wayne Harrison big hit Bob Sanders it was beautiful
*Sports history
Literally the most legendary games of all time. Brady vs Manning
Glad I grew up during this era in football! 🐐🏈🏆
Im a packers fan but I agree
2023 and this is what I’m watching I’m from CT I’m a colts fan and I remember watching this game surrounded by people just berating me all first half and then slowly watching that confidence wane. These were the two best QBs we’ll ever have the privilege of seeing compete.
The crowd silence when the Colts are on offense before the snap...
The respect they had/have for Peyton was/is amazing and well deserved.
When Peyton returned to Indianapolis as a Denver Bronco, the home fans applauded him. Even though he was no longer a Colt the people of Indianapolis still appreciated what he'd done for them.
Yea all he had to do was wave his arms and it was immediate silence til he didnt even have to do that anymore...legend status
In the old stadium here, it was a sight to behold…Lucas Oil now is cavernous and the Colts haven’t had a QB close to Peyton since he left
@@JoeSmith-hv7oe Andrew Luck was close. It's just too bad his career was cut short by injuries. Peyton Manning had a much better supporting cast than Andrew Luck ever did.
The RCA Dome got SUPER LOUD and ya it was quite the contrast when Peyton came out there and everyone went hush hush.
Man, I miss watching Manning and Brady duke it out. The battles they had were legendary. The Ali/Frazier of football.
BIG FACTS! SAME!
This was THE rivalry and will always be the best rivalry in my book. No other rivalry will EVER come close to this. Manning is THE GOAT in my humble opinion.
@@mitchpitner3229 Mahomes/Herbert May end up Rivaling Brady/Manning. I guess we will have to wait and see.
@@fivterq3687 The Mahomes/Allen rivalry is looking more likely right now based off their last matchup, but herbert may step up.
Yea but Brady should have congradulated manning and just run of the into locker room like he did, poor sports man's hip on Tom's part.
Greatest NFL game of the 2000-2009 decade in my opinion.
david charles too me it would be the 2009 packers vs cards wild card game
david charles close but SB43...or that packers cards game
Titans v pats 2009 clearly the best
Steelers Chargers 2008 playoffs.
Bears vs Cardinals 2006 MNF comeback
I was 18 years old. My family and I were screaming jumping up and down. SO SO freaking happy. We drove like 25 mins to downtown Indianapolis. It was like the entire downtown area turned into a massive party. People were dancing on cars and everything. One of the best moments I can remember in my life.
Congrats 🥳 beating a team that's cheating is never easy.
those were the best days. Beeing a Peyton Manning's fan and my dad beeing a Tom Brady's fan, those games were even more important than the super bowl. There isn't gonna be a rivalry like that in a long time.
Patrick Mahomes vs Josh Allen
@@josephdonnelly2663 nah mahomes and burrow a much better rivalry
The Manning v Brady rivalry would've been better if the Patriots weren't cheating.
Mahomes and Allen working on it
I have never seen a QB performance like this one. Manning was getting blasted by pressure on every play and still made play after play after play. Some just jaw dropping throws.
@@hays1874 Who's breeze?
Manning had near perfect pass protection outside of the 3 sacks NE got.
Best NFL rivalry. The fact that even their regular season match-ups always had Play-off ramifications was amazing.
Imagine if the Patriots weren't cheating.
FUN FACT: This year in the playoffs The Colts faced the number 1(Baltimore) number 2(New England) and number 3(Chicago) defenses in the league and beat all of them. Peyton Manning actually did this twice in his career! Always a tough road
And funnily enough, their own defense was last in the league throughout the year.
@@tomcg100 without Peyton they dont put up 30+ on the Patriots and win the AFC championship game. FOH.
Sanders was made of glass, but boy, th at year. No way they beat anyone in the playoffs without him
Your stats are wrong. He had 3 TD passes 7 ints and he actually had 4 total TDs because he had a rushing TD on a QB sneak against the Patriots. He also threw for 1034 yards and completed 63.4% of his passes.
@@tomcg100 that's a lie

One of the best calls ever gives me chills every time I hear it
The Great Wee Wee I really wish there was a full game video with Bob Lamey calling this game. Such a legend
In 2007 I was living on base in Charleston, SC. When he caught that ball I screamed so loud SPs responded to my room.
As a packers fan i even think this is one of the great games ever even though manning was the 90s atlanta braves when it came to the playoffs where he won once with the colts but had some ugly first playoff game losses after all those 12 -4 every year it seemed great regular seasons
ruclips.net/video/btsDjmnO3VE/видео.html
As exciting as winning the Super Bowl was, I cried when we won this game. Such an amazing time to be a Colts fan!
Or even just a Peyton Manning fan it hurt to see him lose like that every year and looked like the same old story and then it wasn’t !!!
From this point on Manning never lost to Brady again in the playoffs, he'd go to 4 Super Bowls winning 2 of them. Dang.
Wow, Brady’s gone to 8 Super Bowls winning 5 of them. Dang.
I’m not even a pats fan but you can say anything you want about Manning, and TB is just as good.

Brady v. Manning is the NFL's version of Bird v. Magic in the NBA. It is a rivalry like these that bring and attract fans to the game and keeps them for the next generation.
Would've been better if the Patriots weren't cheating
Man how good was that 2 point conversion from Peyton to Marvin late in the 3rd that was a thing of beauty
The Colts' radio call of Marlin Jackson's pick to seal the game still gives me chills, and I'm not even a Colts fan.
respek

Albus Luck true I love listening to it
Bob Lamey. I love his calls and I'm not a Colts fan. He had a great one for Harbaugh's Hail Mary in the '95 AFC title game against Pittsburgh and when an opponent makes a big play, he sounds like the bearer of bad news. Homer, but honest.
"INTERCEPTIONNN MARLON JACKSON! WERE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!"
One of the greatest games I've ever seen.
It blew that year's Super Bowl out of the water.
This game and Mahomes Brady in 2018 are probably my favorite games outside of the SB. And both games were better than the SBs that year lol
I cried literally, Manning finally beat Brady and was one step closer to his first
Yes rex Grossman.. that bears team had a great defense with urlacher and special teams with Hester. Offense wasn't good though, speaks volumes
THANK YOU! My favorite Colts game of all-time. Vindication personified!
Yeah. Manning had Brady's number from here on out.
I’ve always loved seeing Manning and Brady go at it. Always some of my favorite games to watch.
This game is easily the greatest game in Colts history, and honestly deserves to be remembered as on of the greatest all time. I think because Indianapolis is a small market team this game doesn't get as much respect; if Dallas or Philadelphia or Chicago or New York were in it, it would have way more respect.
As a packers fan i also agree
The Wild Card 2013 game against the Chiefs is a VERY close one
I think that title belongs to "The Greatest Game Ever Played" back with the Baltimore Colts and Johnny Unitas against the Giants.
This was the 2006 super bowl. What a phenomenal rivalry. I'm glad I grew up with Brady vs Manning in my childhood.
Pure nostalgia. I was nine years old when this happened. Here I am 22 years old now and still getting butterflies rewatching it. Thanks for the upload.

Here, a Colts fan, just finished watching it again 17 years later to the day. NEVER, EVER gets old :)
Love watching these games. Re-living every moment of them. Classic coaches, classic players, drama from beginning to end.
Miss this colts team so bad
Dont worry we got the chiefs this weekend
Same here. Between Peyton leaving the Colts, Irsay shitting on the fans in 2011 to get the #1 draft pick, and the bullshit kneeling I don't even care to watch football anymore except for these games on YT I can pick and choose.
Lets appreciate that we got to see this game filled with legend's. I don't care what people say who's better, both Manning and Brady are top 5 qb of all time. As colts fan I respect TB 12 for his greatness along with our legendary qb Peyton Manning
This ^ was Tom better clearly. But this was the best rivalry ever ego goes out the window when it comes to a fan of either team revering the other.
I grew up in Indiana a colts fan. Manning and Brady are legends
Que partido, y lo más hermoso es conocer la historia del entrenador de los Indianapolis Colts "Tony Dungy". Saludos desde Chile.
people dont realize that in afc championship games peyton is 3-1 vs brady remember that
And Phil Simms was 2-1 v. Joe Montana. So what?
is phil in conversation as one of the greatest ever?
mike lewis Exactly. Neither is Peyton Manning according to ESPN, NFL Films, Sports Illustrated, CBS Sports, Fox Sports, and most former and current players.
peyton is always mentioned top 5, are u kidding me? he has every passing record there is and won 2 superbowls of 4
mike lewis Exactly. He's Top 5 but not Top 2.
Peace.
Still my favorite AFC championship game
Pats blew a 21-3 lead
{ ͡• ͜ʖ ͡•} your point? Manning and the Broncos blew a 24 point lead to the Pats in 2013
@@sheepdavis not to mention the Patriots coming back from the 28 to 3 deficit in under three quarters not to mention 87 for the patriots who does not deserve a name dropping Too Short touchdown passes and the uneven officiating and the Colts defense that the announcers kept saying we're getting tired but weren't they hung in there even though it was a certainly not Manning's best day did she see that roughing-the-passer penalty I guess she can't brush the quarterback with your little finger
One more thing I think this game is most likely fixed and I really only think there's only been two playoff games that have ever been fixed just it never sat right with me also this was the Superbowl everyone knew who ever won this game was going to win the Super Bowl against the Rex Grossman Peyton Manning because he was considering both retirement and suicide and I heard he threw a hissy fit in the commissioner's office which ended up and him defecating on the floor and smearing it all over the walls
@@aaronbradley3232 patriots falcons superbowl was rigged.
Pats ALSO blew and choked against Manning in 2009 blowing a 31-14 lead.
I don't understand the persistent need to argue which quarterback is/was better, Manning or Brady, as if it actually matters. The sheer number of intangibles that affected the outcomes of their careers should give people pause before declaring one clearly better than the other. Aspects of their careers that varied and had countless effects on the games they played in (and didn't play in) included coaching, offensive lines, defense, roster depth, injuries, timely field goals (Adam Vinatieri clinched two of the Patriots' Superbowl victories), etc.
C'mon Dennis - you are making too much sense! There is no room for being logical and rational on YT!!! How dare you!
In all seriousness, you are 100% correct.
Dennis Bartsch you are a smart man
Dennis Bartsch Exactly! Can't we just appreciate watching two of the all-time greats being inextricably linked throughout their careers? How many generations get served up the treat we did getting to watch Brady vs. Manning all these years? Peyton would not have been as great as he was without Tom, and Tom would not have been as great without Peyton.
Dude whatever Peyton was a stud the minute he took his first snap from under center. Brady couldn't even beat out Drew Bledsoe for the starting qb job and was a caretaker for his first 2 to 3 years and didn't start throwing the ball regularly until Moss came to town. Tom's career is linked to Peyton's forever but Peyton Manning stands alone. Stop acting like he was a scrub until Brady came along with a defense in Denver he carved the Patriots up special teams couldn't save him then. Montana was a better qb than Brady, you never hear anyone say "why can't we appreciate Aikman and Montana for their greatness"
Hey Dennis I love seeing your two year old comments you should feel like an ass don't you feel like an ass you said something about how many games played in Brady how many games not play again not Brady if you are a true football fan and woke up and realize that your comment about Vinatieri winning two Super Bowls you would actually Shake Yourself I missed something in both of those games if both of those games Brady shot down with less than 3 minutes with the lead the defense let the opposing teams go right down the field and score Brady and both games had to get off the bench after scoring touchdowns with less than three minutes now he has to get off the bench with less than two minutes in both f****** games and bring the team down the field into field-goal range and my friend they did not get the Bulls at the 40 or 50 yard line either if you I'll be true football f****** fan you would stop your f****** lying or coming out with b******* comments we all know well loss patch fans knew he was already the greatest but now everybody knows he's the greatest and don't come back with cheating b****
Ive been a die hard colts fan my entire life. I was 13 when they played this game. After so many years of playoff heartbreak, I didnt think I'd ever see the colts in a super bowl. So once those magic words were spoken, "THE COLTS ARE GOING TO THE SUPERBOWL!" I started to cry tears of pure joy! My childhood dream had actually came true. I would have given anything to have been in the RCA Dome that night. Thank you so much for posting this game. I feel like i got to relive that magical night all over again.
Most important win in Colts franchise history and in Peyton Manning's career. Manning isn't even a top 5 QB all-time if the Colts lose this game, despite all the regular season records.
Agreed
Notice how Brady nor Belicheck congratulated or shook hands with the Colts. Peyton is looking for Brady at midfield and then he tries to meet up with Bill in the middle of the field and Bill just blows him off, barely even looks at him. Brady runs off the field quicker than the Pistons did when they lost to the Bulls lol.
Everybody always talking about how gracious and professional the Patriots are. Except when they lose.
Notice how you’re that one guy who sees a losing team not shake hands and calls them classless over ONE GAME.
@@xdgaming70 One game is one too many!
Hortinus And what about the countless times they DO shake hands?
Brady went right over to Manning and then left. Brady probably wanted to get off the field because he threw what probably still stands has his worst interception of his career. Belichick embraced Dungy. What more do you want from anyone?
@@TheMEGACOCAINEADDICT didn't peyton also not shake hands when he lost to the saints in a superbowl?
I play QB and I think its really unfair to say: Brady vs Manning.
I just can throw the ball if my OL give time to recover the defense, if my receivers run the routes correctly. And football teams win games with special teams, punt returning and with a good kicker.
Football teams win games with DL, with smart safeties, with gifted CBs and with heart of lion LBs.
QB is a huge position, but FOOTBALL TEAM is just COMPLETE with EVERYONE.
CHEERS
Preach! Football is a team sport and if one player miss their assignment the play would not work.
Love watching these classics games. I was a young kid when they aired and watching them now that I’m older makes me appreciate them even more
My greatest/happiest moment as a colts fan...I burnt this game onto DVD...I have no need for that now as I can watch this any time I want now on RUclips...Thank you!!
Did you know...
Adam Vinatieri played for both Peyton Manning and Tom Brady.
Adam Vinatieri had kicked 2 game winning field goals in Superbowl 36 and 38.
Ricky Proehl had tied the game with a minute left in both Superbowl 36 and 38.
Ricky Proehl record 71 yards and 1 TD in both of his 2 Superbowl losses.
Ricky Proehl won Superbowl XLI with Adam Vinatieri who had kicked the game winner against him in 2 Superbowls.
I remember this game like it was yesterday.... helluva game and moment as a colts fan!
The Colts losing the year before to Pittsburgh made this game mean so much more...
When Bettis fumbled and they nearly took it back but for Ben making that tackle. God, I just wish he had tripped or something. But it is what it is.
Steelers fans thought at the moment Marlin Jackson intercepted Tom Brady, "God, I wish that were us". In time, the Steelers will beat the Patriots in the postseason, but on that cold night in January, 2007, it was the Colts' time!!!
Dallas Clark was ahead of his time man. And what really speaks to how good of a receiving TE he was, he was only 6’3” now today all the good pass catching TE are freak athletes with ridiculous attributes
Marlin Jackson was the first tackler in the beginning of the game, and then he was the defender who sent them to the Super Bowl 👊🏾👊🏾
"The Power of Habits - Charles Duhigg" brought me here :)
Dude, same!
Me too
This game changed everything for Peyton. Everyone tried to say he wouldn't make it to the Super Bowl but not only did he make it to this one he won it went to three more. Total record of 2-2.
New England's defense choked on the final Colt possession. Two wide-open receivers, a 15-yard penalty, and finally, they couldn't stop Indy from running it up the middle on 3 straight plays.
Drops also
Caldwell drop was the real choke.
I came from the "Power of Habit" book. Know nothing about football but had to see that last play. Amazing
Damn at 21:10, "maybe Mike Tomlin in Pittsburgh, don't know about that one yet". It kind of amazes me how much has happened in the last decade of football
I remember being 16 years when this game was played... I wanted Peyton to win to bad after being heart broken the year before losing to the Steelers over a missed kick...I never been so happy after a game in my life.... Tom Brady is one of the best but Peyton Manning is THE best
Peyton Manning never showed up when it mattered most (don't give me "his" two Super Bowl wins.... He threw 3 TD's and 7 INT's in the 2006-2007 Playoff Run..... His defense gave up 16, 18, and 10 points in 3 games in 2015..... Manning was a great regular season QB that had a few great playoff games (2003 Wild Card, 2003 Divisional, 2004 Wild Card, 2013 AFC Championship) outside of those games Peyton came up short in a lot of big moments..... Brady has elevated his play during some of the biggest moments in NFL history.... down 28-3.... Down by 10 to the Seattle team that beat the breaks off Manning the Year before.... needing to drive his team down twice to win Super Bowls with walk off field goals.... Down by 10 to Jacksonville.... Driving to win @ KC..... Even his loss in the 2015 AFC Championship game was more remarkable than half of Peyton's career
I was almost 2 weeks old
Brady the GOAT for sure
@@clintfowler1526 LOL brady played like hot garbage in 2015 AFC championship. Brady fanboys live in an alternate reality its hilarious
@@Yeomannn that’s why they were a two point play from tying the game??
One of the greatest afc championship games ever. I was pulling so hard for Peyton Manning to win the big one that yr.
Best Game Ever!
I was only around 2 weeks old when this happened
Still get chills watching this. Glad the full game is up on here, had the game recorded on vhs but I've since lost the tape
Can we get Tom Brady and Peyton Manning in a 1v1 dodgeball game??
Dominic Rhodes and Bob Sanders were the true MVP in the playoffs.
Love Manning, but a Rhodes was most definitely the MVP in the Super Bowl
Marlin Jackson did something that Marlon McCree failed to do in the same postseason against the Patriots: pick off Tom Brady and then go down.
Exactly. Crazy thing is had the Chargers won, the Colts would've blown them out.
I like how that Colt who intercepted Brady's lasr pass went to the ground, not running it back. That's what te Chargers should have done in their famous playoff game with the Patriots. Caused Schottenheimer's job with thatstupid, unnecessary fumble.
INTERCEPTED! MARLIN JACKSON! MARLINS GOT IT, WE’RE GOING TO THE SUPER BOWL! Legendary, if you’ve never heard it look it up. Marlin Jackson is a legend in Indy for one play. But it was a damn good one,
Having Reggie and Marvin on the same team was pretty dope
Peyton in the gun, Marvin wide to the right, Wayne wide to the left, Addai the lone back. Peyton takes the snap, sets, looks, looks,.....
I watched the game in 2006, and this video of it 7 times. Thanks for posting such a classic great game between 2 great teams.
Greatest AFC title game of all time.
2018 AFC title game: "hold my beer".
I beg to differ
@@AdrianJ9494 Not even close mate.
Nope....1986 Browns vs Broncos....Elway and "The Drive"
chiefs pats?
I've never understood why the patriots got rid of Vinatieri, he's a legend on that team, beloved by fans, and got them the win in two superbowls and the tuck rule game. Plus he's still an elite kicker 10 years after the trade. Don't get me wrong, Gostkowski's great, maybe even one of the best in the whole league, but Vinatieri's one of the best of all time.
Because Gostkowski is also one of the best of all time, and he is 10 years younger.
One of the few mistakes I would say the Pats made in the Brady-Belichick era. Vinatieri is closing in on the most field goals made all time and most points scored by any one player all time.
Because
1) Vinatieri couldn’t kick-off yet he was demanding top of the line money. Belichick was fed up with giving up 10-15 yards every kickoff and wasn’t going to pay Vinatieri top money while also paying a kickoff specialist. And Belichick’s left-footed punter fetish precluded him from hiring punters who could also kick-off, as most of his punters are specialists, plus again why pay Vinatieri top money just to have the punter do one of his jobs. Gostkowski could do both jobs for way less money.
And
2) There was no way to know in 2006 that Vinatieri would still be a top of the line kicker in 2018. He very well may go on to be the oldest player ever, something you just can’t really bank on. Heck Belichick doesn’t even believe that Brady will stay good and wanted to keep Jimmy G this year. At the time you expected the Colts to get 4 or 5 good years out of him, and it seemed like he was very overpaid at the time (Vinatieri has turned out to be worth every penny to Indy, although he did miss the 2009 Super Bowl run which is a small blemish)
@@TheLocalLt isn’t it crazy he ended up playing more seasons in Indy than in Foxborough
@@KillyJoe and just like I predicted in that comment Belichick successfully drove off Brady. Unreal how big that man’s ego can be sometimes, it’s the Bill Parcells in him. Sean Peyton is the same way. Imo the Pats should have reloaded for a last run with Brady instead of tying his hands and starting a rebuild. Brady now going to show the coaching staff that said “we could win with about 8-10 other QBs” and constantly leaked that he was “declining” that he is not in fact declining. Jettisoning vinatieiri was the correct move. Jettisoning Brady not so much
This is MADDEN 07 :)

Nick Farwell lol im surprised, because he was with the Colts for 14 years.
Jack Attack dammit let us Colts fans have this moment lol
Nick Farwell it's been one year and it's weird for me to see Manning even play 😂😂
30 years from now Peyton Manning will be remembered as a colt
I was so happy for Peyton and the Colts
New England blew a 21-3 lead
😂😂😂
@Charley Spoons 41-33
What's your point?
I'm glad they did not a colts fan btw
Pats played sloppy football and got over cocky about it
Lots of legends, hall of famers, and future hall of famers in this game. 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Once Brady actually hangs it up lolololol
This was the zenith of the Patriots/Colts rivalry from 2001-2010. The two best teams of that decade, arguably the two best QB's of all time, and everyone on both sides played their best in the same game. That RARELY happens in a rivalry game, especially with the Super Bowl on the line. This game was a treasure to any football fan.
16 years later to the day I had to re-watch it. One of best NFL games of all time and the best of the 17 Brady-Manning match-ups. What a joy to see the Colts comeback to win this game and eventually go on to win SB XLI 🙏😁😁
I was living in an apartment when this game aired. After the Pick Six, I walked to the Burger King, thinking, "It's over." Told the people behind the counter about the score and their jaws dropped. My jaw dropped just as much when I watched the rest of the game. Good one to witness.
This was my favorite football game of all time. Watching Manning was such a good time for me. Now I find myself, for the first time ever, secretly wanting Brady to get another ring.
When football was football.
Peyton Manning My Man Finally Finally Finally Finally Finally Gets His 1ST CHAMPIONSHIP RING!
The 2000s colts were the 90s braves of the nfl
The '06 Patriots were tough overachievers, but offensively deficient and devoid of playmakers. Brady nearly led this team on an incredible title run in a year where the AFC was stacked. The Colts had weapons everywhere though, and this time refused to let the Pats off the hook down the stretch.
Hope burrows, mahomes or Allen can be the new rivalry for the AFC
One of my all-time favorite NFL games, colts nation 4 life man, Peyton Manning> Tom Brady Facts
lmfao
@Ejendi Fjdndid how many mvps does Brady have
Hahaha, I remember watching this game live and my cousin and I always laugh about how big Caldwell's eyes got after he dropped that pass when no one was even lined up on him in coverage. Good times. Good times!
Bears/Pats fan. This game broke my heart back in the day lol
Willing to bet the following one didn't offer you any love either.
+TheRenegadeChampion Lol nope, but the Hester gave us early hope 😢
Then there's me on the other side, shitting my pants after watching my team give up the opening kickoff lol
Lucas oil stadium is an absolute first class stadium and I really enjoy attending games there......but damn, that dome field advantage was so fun at the rca dome. God it would get so damn loud in there. I miss that
Now Peyton is in the Hall of Fame and said this win was his favorite all time moment of his career.
What an amzing game by Peyton. He is the best quaterback I have ever seen besides Montana and Brady.
This game and the 2009 NFC Championship between the Vikings and Saints are the two best games of this century
Watching this in 2019 after the KC game is so satisfying
TOM BRADY IS A LEGEND
Beat game ever ... This starting a run of the manning brothers crushing the dreams of the cheaters
Albus Luck yet Peyton cheated
Rock Mac ahahaha Peyton cheated ??? Wtf are you talking about
Albus Luck lol. you do know Peton has cheated before right?
Anthony Costa 1st of all its spelled Peyton not "Peton", 2nd of all he didn't cheat, and 3rd of all your a salty patriots fan......
Kyle Simber 1. I mistyped
2. What do I have to be salty about?
the fact that this season was ten years ago makes me feel old
don't even remember me about it...
14 Now :( time Flies man
1:21:38 That TD pass from Brady to Gaffney back of the endzone, just a play after he should've had an easy TD pass to Caldwell that was dropped, should be on Brady's top plays of his career. Both plays he was great at moving in the pocket to keep it alive and find an open WR.
as a sad colts fan i come back to this game often
I remember watching this game in my room when I was in grade school. Coming off that Chargers win in San Diego where practically no one was giving the Patriots a shot in that game, I thought there was no way this team could lose no matter who they played next. Yea, Bill and Brady have five rings together, but they'll always look back at the missed opportunities to separated themselves from everyone else. You can go back and say that the two SB losses to the Giants were wasted opportunities, but this game always sticks out for a couple reasons: that year the Patriots already beat the Bears and held them to 10 points that game as well; in this game, they were up 21-6 and couldn't maintain that lead.
