00:00:00Prior six yards gave the Patriots a 7-0 lead, Randy McMillan a half-yard run, tied it, 7-7 after one quarter.

00:00:07Tony Franklin field goal, made it 10-7 New England.

00:00:10After a Fred Murray interception, a Stanley Morgan 14-yard touchdown reception, 17-7 New England.

00:00:16Raul Allegri, 25 yards and $3,000 richer, made it 17-10.

00:00:22A McMillan touchdown run, tied it at 17, and then this.

00:00:25Seven plays, 73 yards, but 62 yards of that was a wide-open Irving Friar.

00:00:31Craig James finished it off with a cutback run from four yards in the Patriots' lead, 24-17, and still 69 seconds remain in this wacky first half.

00:00:42Could be a couple of more scores yet in 69 seconds, huh?

00:00:45Franklin kicks it away to Albert Bentley, one yard deep.

00:00:48And Bentley is grabbed by Rod McSwain at the 13.

00:00:56Excellent tackle by Rod McSwain.

00:01:00He beat the blocker, squared down, slowed down, kept the right base on his feet, lowered the head,

00:01:07just made an excellent tackle, putting his head right in the bread basket of the ball carrier.

00:01:11So the Colts now have 64 seconds, and defensively for the New England Patriots,

00:01:17obviously with the serious injury to Ken Sims, Garen Varis is in, as is Lester Williams.

00:01:25Patriots with a four-man front, but Sims is out, fractured leg, and likely that he will play again this season.

00:01:33A costly loss, Sims is having a fine year, his best is approved.

00:01:37One, two, three.

00:01:39Pagel on first down.

00:01:43And he's, ooh, nearly completed to Booza,

00:01:46and then Claiborne nearly picked it off after Marion put the hit on Booza.

00:01:52Once again, Bob, let's hark back now to that injury to Kenneth Sims,

00:01:56and the irony here is really his own fault as he tried a leg whip.

00:02:00There you see number 77 in white, missing the tackle, whipping his leg up.

00:02:04Now that is an illegal ploy by a defensive tackler.

00:02:07Unfortunately for the Patriots, Kenneth Sims has just started to come into his own.

00:02:12He was the first pick in the entire draft four years ago and got off to kind of a slow start,

00:02:16but coming into his own this year, generally regarded as the Patriots' best lineman this year,

00:02:21they can ill afford the loss of Kenneth Sims.

00:02:23Second down from the 15.

00:02:26Pat Beech, that's another drop.

00:02:28That was a catchable ball again.

00:02:31And Beech points a finger at a defensive back.

00:02:33So some of these incompletions from Mike Pagel are not his fault.

00:02:38They're not Mike Pagel's fault, but that ball was deflected.

00:02:41But I believe that the defender got a hand on that ball just as he was coming in to the hands of the receiver.

00:02:47And on the previous play, it's understandable why that one's dropped.

00:02:50Freddie Marion put some kind of hit on the receiver just as he was catching the ball.

00:02:54So the balls are being thrown very well by Pagel.

00:02:57They're there.

00:02:58He's putting them where they should be put,

00:03:00but it's excellent defense on the part of the Patriots' secondary that's preventing the first downs.

00:03:04Third down in the 15th.

00:03:09Draw play, McMillan.

00:03:12And McMillan does not get to the 20.

00:03:15So the Patriots immediately stop the clock with a timeout

00:03:18because there are still 46 seconds remaining in the half,

00:03:22and the Colts will have to punt it away.

00:03:25So the Patriots use the first of their three timeouts.

00:03:27It's Mike Pagel on the offense.

00:03:29We'll head off.

00:03:30They've had a pretty fair first half, putting 17 points on the board,

00:03:34but two interceptions and a wide-open Irving Pryor have killed the Colts this afternoon.

00:03:40I'd like to remind you that coming up next here on NBC Sports,

00:03:43the conclusion of the Skins game, the third annual event,

00:03:47featuring defending champion Jack Nicklaus, PGA Player of the Year Tom Watson,

00:03:51U.S. Open winner Fuzzy Zeller,

00:03:52and of course Arnold Palmer, who scooped up all that loose change yesterday.

00:03:56The unique Skins game from the Bear Creek Golf Club in Murrieta, California,

00:04:02all coming up next right here on NBC Sports.

00:04:07Glenn, I believe that the Patriots here, they smell,

00:04:10they've got the little taste of blood here now.

00:04:11There's only 46 seconds left in the half,

00:04:13but they've called timeout to force the Colts to punt them

00:04:17so they can get the ball back.

00:04:18Hopefully in Colt territory, they want to get another score on the board,

00:04:21maybe put this game away here at halftime.

00:04:23Well, Stark will punt again.

00:04:25Remember, Irving Pryor has tied a club record

00:04:27with two punt returns for touchdowns this year.

00:04:31That is not a good punt from Stark, and it bounces.

00:04:35It takes a Patriots bounce, not a bounce at the 42 or 43.

00:04:39So the Patriots have 36 seconds left

00:04:41after a, for Ron Stark, a poor 38-yard punt.

00:04:46Very poor.

00:04:47They also have two timeouts,

00:04:48and there's plenty of time for the Patriots

00:04:50to get yet another score on the board before halftime.

00:04:54Now, watching that last replay of that leg whip,

00:04:56I just want to give a credit to our producer, Peter Rolfe,

00:04:58and our director, Harry Coyle, here this afternoon.

00:05:00Their work down in the truck.

00:05:03Obviously, you hate to see any player injured,

00:05:05but the irony, of course,

00:05:07when it was his own play that caused the injury,

00:05:11a play that's an illegal play.

00:05:12That's right.

00:05:12It was illegal, but it may have been an instinctive situation.

00:05:14I don't know that if he thought about that.

00:05:16It's something that you do when you're off balance.

00:05:18From the 43, first down.

00:05:20Eason going long.

00:05:21Fryer's open again, and Eason overthrows him.

00:05:25But what was this about a calf bruise for Irvin Fryer,

00:05:28and he wasn't going to start?

00:05:29And Eason's saying, I missed it by that much, darn.

00:05:31And Fryer doesn't look injured at all to me.

00:05:34He certainly doesn't.

00:05:35I think it's the old sucker play.

00:05:36Oh, I'm hurt, I'm hurt, I'm not going to play much today.

00:05:38And then, zoom.

00:05:40Nesby Glasgow is trailing him,

00:05:41but by about five or six yards,

00:05:43and Nesby shaking his head,

00:05:44looking to his teammates, saying,

00:05:46Hey, guys, where were you?

00:05:47I thought I had help deep.

00:05:48And if you're just joining us at 2.35 in the afternoon Eastern time,

00:05:51this is still the first half.

00:05:53It is the Patriots 24, Colts 17.

00:05:56Two injuries, two ejections,

00:05:58and some razzle-dazzle.

00:06:00And an action-filled first half.

00:06:02Eason runs it himself out of bounds over into the Colts bench area.

00:06:12Barry Krause pats him on the back.

00:06:15And we still have 23 seconds remaining in the half,

00:06:18and this will be third down.

00:06:19Well, so far, he's got to be fairly impressed with Tony Eason's ballgame.

00:06:25He's gone downfield, downtown, upfield, I should say,

00:06:29when the situation's called for it.

00:06:30Here in the waning seconds of the first half,

00:06:33he's gone for the home run,

00:06:34and he's throwing the ball fairly well.

00:06:37He's throwing the ball well deep,

00:06:39and also throwing a lot of short passes that are on the money.

00:06:41And when we get to halftime,

00:06:43we will hear from Bob and Ahmad and Keith at NFL 85.

00:06:48Shotgun formation, third and six at the 47.

00:06:51Seven defensive backs in for the Colts.

00:06:56And one of them, Tate Randall, nearly intercepts the pass.

00:06:59Nobody was there.

00:07:00Perhaps Stanley Morgan was the intended receiver,

00:07:04but Tate Randall was the closest man to the ball.

00:07:07Fourth-year player at a Texas Tech,

00:07:09and now Tony Eason heads to the far side.

00:07:11And the Patriots will punt.

00:07:13The intended receiver here is Stanley Morgan,

00:07:14coming from the left side of your screen,

00:07:16but he's not in your screen because he ran an out cut.

00:07:19Eason anticipating a post pattern

00:07:21with Morgan going deep over the middle.

00:07:23They had their signal switched

00:07:25because Judge Morgan cut to the outside,

00:07:27and the only one that had any potential of catching that ball

00:07:29was wearing the wrong colored jersey.

00:07:31So Camarillo will punt away,

00:07:33not having a good day, as you see.

00:07:35Robbie Martin has returned one for a touchdown this year.

00:07:38This one he will watch bounce, out of bounds.

00:07:41Will it get out of bounds?

00:07:42No.

00:07:42Takes a Patriots bounce, and finally out at the four.

00:07:46And just seven seconds remain.

00:07:48So Colts will likely plop on the ball

00:07:53unless they try a little Bart Starr play-action fake 96-yard attempt.

00:07:59That was an amazing punt, Len.

00:08:01It's almost as if Camarillo had a little homing device in that ball.

00:08:04He not only put it in the corner,

00:08:05but it came down about a foot from the sideline,

00:08:07and instead of bouncing out of bounds,

00:08:09it stayed inbounds and trickled all the way down to the four-yard line.

00:08:1247-yarders.

00:08:12So Camarillo is winning the battle with Stark today.

00:08:16Stark ahead of him in the rankings.

00:08:19Let's see what the Colts elect to do.

00:08:2424-17 Patriots.

00:08:27Final seven seconds and a handoff to McMillan.

00:08:30McMillan busts to the 16,

00:08:32and that'll do it for a first half

00:08:36filled with five touchdowns

00:08:39and two injuries and two disqualifications.

00:08:44It's been something.

00:08:45In about two rounds of heavyweight boxing,

00:08:47and it had a little bit of everything for the fans here today, Len.

00:08:50What is your gut feeling now?

00:08:52Again, to follow up on our pregame theme,

00:08:54first of all, obviously the Colts have not packed it in,

00:08:56so that answered the first question from early.

00:08:58The premier pick in the entire draft,

00:09:00it puts him under a microscope,

00:09:01and he just didn't relate that well.

00:09:03But he's letting his play do his talking for him lately,

00:09:06and that's what the coaches want in the final analysis.

00:09:08The Colts kick it away to start the second half.

00:09:11Stefan starring.

00:09:13This time he doesn't bring it out.

00:09:17So, the Patriots will start at the 20th.

00:09:26So our halftime statistics.

00:09:29Take a look if there's any big discrepancy.

00:09:31Things are fairly, even the two turnovers were critical,

00:09:33so that's really the big step.

00:09:34The turnovers, the two interceptions that led to 14 points for the Patriots.

00:09:40That's right, especially considering the Colts turn the ball over,

00:09:43first drive of the game, deep in their own territory.

00:09:45If you take away that mishap, you've got a dead, even ball game.

00:09:49So, first down at the 20th, Cliff Odom is back on defense for the Colts.

00:09:58A little pass out from Morgan, and Morgan runs it up close to first down territory.

00:10:04Cliff Odom was injured with a dislocated middle finger in the first half,

00:10:08a linebacker, number 93 for the Colts,

00:10:10but he's back in action starting the second half.

00:10:13But fellas who are out, Steve Moore, there's Odom.

00:10:17But his teammate, Donnell Thompson, and the offensive lineman for the Patriots,

00:10:20Steve Moore, both ejected for kind of a pity-pat fight.

00:10:24That's right, like a couple of Fanny Roosters.

00:10:26But Cliff Odom is having the finest season of his career.

00:10:29It's his fifth year.

00:10:30He's leading the team so far, going in today with 148 tackles,

00:10:34a couple of sacks, making things happen in the middle of that Colt defense.

00:10:37He's all got to pick up close to seven.

00:10:41But the second and three is Easton tells Craig James where to go.

00:10:45He has to call a timeout as the 32nd clock is down to three,

00:10:51and Easton spent so much time directing traffic

00:10:54that he was forced to take a timeout in the opening seconds of the second half.

00:10:59Which surely you don't want to do.

00:11:00You're involved in a very surprisingly tough ball game on the road.

00:11:05You're in a hostile stadium in front of a loud crowd.

00:11:10And you don't want to utilize one of your three precious timeouts

00:11:13in the first few seconds of the opening of the second half.

00:11:18You see Steve Grogan leaning over his crutches,

00:11:21so the injury bug has hit the Patriots hard.

00:11:23First, Grogan with a broken leg.

00:11:25Now, Kenneth Sims, two premier performers in back-to-back weeks.

00:11:30Irony with Grogan is, he said in future years, if he comes back,

00:11:33he may avoid week number 12.

00:11:36Several different years, he's been knocked out of commission

00:11:39in the 12th week of the season.

00:11:40Unlucky Baker's dozen for Grogan.

00:11:44Kind of like the 13th floor in a building.

00:11:46You go from 12 to 14 in a high rise.

00:11:49The Patriots return home after this three-game road trip.

00:11:52We'll see what the reaction of the fans is to Tony Easton.

00:11:55They did not greet him well when he was the starter.

00:11:57In fact, they cheered when he was injured in the game against Buffalo.

00:12:00He's received some rough treatment there.

00:12:01Then that tough game is just the same as preseason, right?

00:12:05So what if Walter Payton didn't play in the 3rd game?

00:12:08So second and three from the 27th.

00:12:10Flag is down.

00:12:12Easton through the hands.

00:12:15But Morgan let it slip through.

00:12:18Eugene Daniel covering.

00:12:21Motion against New England.

00:12:22So if you decide to take it, they will give them 2nd down again.

00:12:29If they refuse, it will be 3rd down.

00:12:31Take a motion.

00:12:33Number 66.

00:12:34Offense.

00:12:35Still 2nd down.

00:12:36Well, they take it.

00:12:37So it backs it up to 2nd and 8.

00:12:40To the 21.

00:12:42That's right, Len.

00:12:43As a defender, a defending team here, 2nd and 3 or 3rd and 3 is not an enviable position to be in.

00:12:50So they decided they'd rather have 2nd and 9 or 2nd and 8 rather than 3rd and 3.

00:12:56Saw Juggs Morgan.

00:12:58Saw Stanley Morgan.

00:12:58They drop a ball that ordinarily he makes that catch.

00:13:01You won't see that too many times.

00:13:02We keep calling him Juggs.

00:13:03I remember his nickname as the Stanley Steamer coming out of Tennessee.

00:13:07Is that because of all the work he does with the Juggs machine?

00:13:10Did he buy one himself for his home?

00:13:12I believe he did, yes.

00:13:202nd and 8.

00:13:23Rushes on.

00:13:24They've got him.

00:13:26Dwayne Bickett.

00:13:28First round draft choice out of USC.

00:13:30Dwayne Bickett in the running as one of the American Football Conference's Rookie of the Year.

00:13:36Having a fine season.

00:13:37Come in to the game today with 105 tackles.

00:13:40And you're going to see him coming from the right-hand side of your screen here late.

00:13:43Number 50 in blue.

00:13:45Putting the finishing touches on a harassed Tony Eason.

00:13:49Dwayne Bickett's coach in college at University of Southern California said that along with Chip Banks,

00:13:54the finest linebackers that have ever played at USC.

00:13:58That is a mouthful.

00:13:59His third sack of the year.

00:14:00He's out in the nickel back or dime back the line that they have six defensive backs in.

00:14:06Shotgun, third and 12 at the 18.

00:14:09Here they come again.

00:14:11They've got him again!

00:14:12And it's Keith Lee, the former New England Patriot, sacking Tony Eason.

00:14:24That's got to be a little extra sweet for an ex-Patriot.

00:14:27Coming from the outside on a halfback blitz.

00:14:30Beating the block by Lynn Dawson.

00:14:31Not giving up.

00:14:33Ordinarily the ball would be away, but the secondary is doing a good job of coverage here.

00:14:35It enables Keith Lee with second effort to get a key sack.

00:14:39And Lynn, this is a very important drive.

00:14:41The opening drive of the second half sets the tone.

00:14:43If the Patriots had come out here and moved the ball right down the field methodically,

00:14:47perhaps the Colts would have pulled up the tent and packed it in until next week.

00:14:50Not the case here.

00:14:51We've got a ball game in our hands.

00:14:53And Camarillo back under his goal post again.

00:14:57And he gets a better one away this time.

00:15:00Drives Robbie Martin back to his 44.

00:15:03And Martin dances to maybe the 48 before he's plowed under.

00:15:09Jim Bowman, one of the Patriots in on the tackle.

00:15:12Tackled by Ed Williams.

00:15:13As well as Ed Williams.

00:15:15So, 13-35.

00:15:18Left third quarter.

00:15:20The Colts get the ball back in good shape.

00:15:25And they're trailing by seven.

00:15:27But you are right.

00:15:28The defense setting the tone with the two consecutive sacks.

00:15:31There's Lee.

00:15:32Late for New England, but picks up his first sack here with the Colts.

00:15:38So, before the Colts start on offense, we'll take a timeout.

00:15:42The Patriots lead by seven.

00:15:43Down for the Colts at their 49.

00:15:46Nagel, Pumpkin, throwing deep for Wayne Caper.

00:15:49And he tried to reach around and couldn't do it.

00:15:53The defender, Raymond Claiborne.

00:15:54And you saw Capers trying to reach around Claiborne and grab the pass, but couldn't do it.

00:16:01But Colts throwing caution to the wind.

00:16:03They're not playing conservatively.

00:16:04Offensively or defensively with that halfback.

00:16:06That's a little while ago.

00:16:07You see Pegel here initially was going to go short.

00:16:09The play designed to go short, but there was good coverage.

00:16:12And Pegel with a heads-up ability to see downfield try to hit Capers over the top.

00:16:16But Raymond Claiborne, once again, one of the premier cornerbacks in the league, running stride for stride with Wayne Capers.

00:16:22I might have thought they'd go back to their pregame strategy of running left.

00:16:26Now in good field position, but they didn't do it.

00:16:29Mark Boyer in motion.

00:16:30Second down at their 49.

00:16:31McMillan wasn't fooled.

00:16:39Don Blackman wrapped him up for no gain.

00:16:42And this will set up third down as he's thrown for a loss on the play.

00:16:49Don Blackman got the tackle.

00:16:51The real credit in that play should go to number 38, the strong safety, Roland James.

00:16:55He came up, read the play, diagnosed it, made a good stuff, a tough stance, and took on the blocker, Big Ben Butt,

00:17:05and stuffed him and forced the play inside so that the tackle could be made.

00:17:09So third and 14.

00:17:11The Patriots go to five defensive backs.

00:17:14The Colts go to three wide receivers and the shotgun.

00:17:18Here comes Garron Barris.

00:17:20And you talked about Dwayne Bickett before being in the running for a rookie award.

00:17:24Garron Barris has set a Patriots team record.

00:17:26That is his ninth sack, a rookie team record.

00:17:31That's right.

00:17:31He's having a fine rookie season.

00:17:33That is the Patriot team record.

00:17:35Sacks for a rookie.

00:17:36You see him here beating Chris Hinton, a former All-Pro, and a fine offensive tackle.

00:17:40Garron Barris, the rookie, just beat him to the outside.

00:17:42Now Garron Barris, by the way, is going to have to be playing the starting left defensive end in place of Kenneth Sims.

00:17:48So he's going to have his hands full today and certainly get battle tested.

00:17:51An interesting selection of plays by the Colts.

00:17:54They went wide open with the sword and they died by it on that series.

00:17:57Three plays in punt.

00:17:59Stark with his 299th career punt.

00:18:05High snap.

00:18:06Good fielder.

00:18:07Decent punt.

00:18:09Fair catch.

00:18:10Well, he waved his hand and took it down.

00:18:12And then Friar and a flag is thrown.

00:18:13I think they'll call a legal fair catch signal.

00:18:16He put his hand up briefly.

00:18:18You're supposed to wave it.

00:18:19Then he took his hand down.

00:18:20And let's see what the call is.

00:18:23Mark Boyer made the stop.

00:18:25This year you have to wave significantly.

00:18:30You just can't put up your hand half-heartedly.

00:18:32Invalid fair catch signal, number 80 on the receivers.

00:18:36Invalid fair catch signal, says our referee Bob McElwee.

00:18:39You'll see it here.

00:18:40Look, he waves.

00:18:41What is that?

00:18:42You know something in your eye?

00:18:45I don't know.

00:18:45He gave the signal.

00:18:47That's a tough situation.

00:18:48You have to use judgment as a tackler coming down there.

00:18:50Did he wave or didn't he wave?

00:18:51You never really know.

00:18:52That wasn't much of a signal.

00:18:53All right, timeout.

00:18:55Patriots get the ball back.

00:18:56Rise and shine.

00:18:58The snap with Pat Beach.

00:19:00The next time he takes the snap as a punter,

00:19:03it will set an NFL record.

00:19:04It will be his 300th career punt.

00:19:06That would qualify him on the all-time list

00:19:08and make him number one all-time

00:19:11with a 45-plus average,

00:19:14surpassing the great Sammy Baugh.

00:19:16Sling Sammy Baugh.

00:19:17That's an amazing accomplishment for this young man.

00:19:21Tremendous athlete out of Florida State.

00:19:23Does a lot of things very well.

00:19:25I'll confess my ignorance.

00:19:26I wasn't aware the ball was a great punter.

00:19:28I knew he was an all-time record-setter as a passer.

00:19:32First down for the Patriots at their 20s.

00:19:34The crowd comes to life.

00:19:37And straight ahead goes Tony Collins.

00:19:41So after lots of scoring in the second quarter,

00:19:45teams are struggling offensively,

00:19:47or let's credit the defense here so far.

00:19:49Taking a look at big John Hanna here.

00:19:51You know, when the chips are down and the pressure's on,

00:19:53do what you do best.

00:19:54Tuck in behind big Hog Hanna.

00:19:56And that time there was certainly no love lost

00:19:57between the two Alabama boys.

00:19:59Hog Hanna putting it to his Alabama mate very cross.

00:20:02I thought I was speaking before the game.

00:20:04It's surprising how friendly they are before the game.

00:20:07And then once the action begins,

00:20:09they go all out.

00:20:10Second and four.

00:20:11Don't let it fool you.

00:20:12Tony Collins trying to turn the corner.

00:20:14Does it for a first down.

00:20:16On and out at the 32.

00:20:17Cliff Odom playing with a dislocated middle finger

00:20:20on the right hand.

00:20:22And he has that hand all the way wrapped up.

00:20:24He's the one who pushed out.

00:20:25Collins, but not before Tony could grab the first down.

00:20:29You know what's amazing, Lynn,

00:20:30is the size and ability and mobility

00:20:32of these offensive linemen nowadays.

00:20:34When I was drafted in 1969,

00:20:36I was 6'2 and maybe 2'45.

00:20:39I don't think I'd be drafted today.

00:20:40That time, big Brian Holloway,

00:20:426'7", 288 pounds,

00:20:43pulled all the way from his left tackle spot

00:20:45and was leading the sweep to the right sideline.

00:20:48First down at the 32.

00:20:53Greg James brings it up to the 37.

00:20:55So, the Patriots doing what I thought the Colts might have done.

00:21:00Doing it on the ground.

00:21:01Chris Scott, second-year man from nearby Purdue,

00:21:04making the tackle.

00:21:05Taking a look at Barry Krause here.

00:21:06Now, he's going to get hit once again.

00:21:09He and the other linebacker are going to be taking on the...

00:21:12You see John Hanna getting movement there on Cliff Odom.

00:21:15What the Colts inside linebackers had better start doing now

00:21:18is slanting their nose guard and slanting their defensive ends

00:21:20to start knocking those guards off

00:21:21because the guards are coming out and blowing them off the ball.

00:21:24Second and five at the 37.

00:21:26Second man is Collins.

00:21:28Nothing there.

00:21:29Turns it back up and maybe gets two.

00:21:33So, before this third down in short play coming up,

00:21:36let's go to Ahmad Rashad for an update at NFL 85.

00:21:41Seeing another hurricane.

00:21:43Eddie Brown.

00:21:44So, third and three at the 39.

00:21:47The shotgun for Tony Eason.

00:21:49Throwing, completing first down to Craig James at midfield.

00:21:56And a big third down completion for Tony Eason,

00:21:59who doesn't show emotion one way or the other very much.

00:22:03That was an important little play right there for Eason.

00:22:05That's right.

00:22:06In talking to him before the game,

00:22:07he did not exactly instill a lot of confidence in us

00:22:09in his ability today.

00:22:11But he's getting the job done today when it has to be done.

00:22:14And you see why Craig James is one of the better all-round backs

00:22:17in the American Football Conference.

00:22:19Taking another look at John Hanna here.

00:22:21One of the premier linemen over the years.

00:22:23And he started out blocking the defensive end there

00:22:25and very alertly switched off man.

00:22:27And that takes a lot of experience.

00:22:29First down to 49.

00:22:30Now James on the ground.

00:22:31Perhaps gets two.

00:22:33Well, at the end of that last play,

00:22:35I saw Craig James get around the linebacker, Johnny Cooks.

00:22:38And I can't help but remember that it was Johnny Cooks

00:22:41who scooped up a fumble in overtime

00:22:43to beat the Patriots opening day in 83.

00:22:46There's Johnny Cooks.

00:22:48Yet another Patriots overtime loss.

00:22:50They have yet to win in regular season in overtime,

00:22:53including the Jets last week.

00:22:54But I remember calling one game back in Boston

00:22:56during the preseason in the 70s

00:22:58when they beat the Giants in overtime in a preseason game.

00:23:00So they have won in preseason in OT,

00:23:03but never regular season.

00:23:06Second and eight, 47 yard line.

00:23:10And straight ahead,

00:23:12Tony Collins close to the 40,

00:23:14but he will be shy of a first down.

00:23:19Impressive display by the Patriots offensive line.

00:23:22This drive, they're coming out,

00:23:24they're plowing straight ahead,

00:23:26they're starting to dominate,

00:23:27they're winning the war on the pitch.

00:23:29The line is coming to see the center there

00:23:31doing an excellent job.

00:23:32And then, I believe it was Mosey Tutupu,

00:23:35an excellent blocking back,

00:23:36coming in and doing a good job of blocking Gary Krause.

00:23:38The Patriots offensive line,

00:23:40the O-line,

00:23:40starting to dominate now.

00:23:42This is the short yardage alignment,

00:23:44Tutupu and Weathers.

00:23:45Here's Tutupu.

00:23:47Gets the first down,

00:23:48I believe,

00:23:49before he's driven back.

00:23:50Let's see where they mark it.

00:23:51It will be very close on this third down play.

00:23:54I think you're right, Len.

00:23:55I think he got it.

00:23:56And if he did get it,

00:23:57it was all on him,

00:23:57because he started getting hit

00:23:58before he crossed the line of scrimmage.

00:24:00Not many backs can make people miss

00:24:02in a crowd like that

00:24:03and get the extra foot

00:24:04or two feet or three feet that's required.

00:24:06This will be very close,

00:24:08and timeout is taken

00:24:09for the chain gang to measure.

00:24:10Do the Patriots have to punt

00:24:17or do they keep it for four more?

00:24:22First down.

00:24:23Half the length of the ball.

00:24:27Taking a look at number 30,

00:24:28Mosey Tutupu is going to cut to the outside

00:24:29and he's going to run to his own man there

00:24:31and keep driving his legs

00:24:32and that extra effort,

00:24:33even though the Colts look like the Marines

00:24:36on Iwo Jima there,

00:24:37stacking him up,

00:24:38but it's that extra effort

00:24:40that got him the extra length

00:24:41of the football for the first down.

00:24:43Ninth play of this drive.

00:24:47First down for the Patriots

00:24:48at the Colt 39.

00:24:497.24 remaining.

00:24:52Third quarter,

00:24:52the Patriots lead it by seven.

00:24:54Play action fake.

00:24:56Over the...

00:24:56Wide open is Stephan Starring.

00:24:58Starring the races on.

00:25:00Out of bounds inside the 15.

00:25:02Saw another big pickup for Tony Eason

00:25:04getting it to Stephan Starring,

00:25:06finally driven out by Anthony Young.

00:25:09Once again, Tony Eason.

00:25:11What happens here is Stanley Morgan

00:25:12on the left side of your screen

00:25:13runs a clearing pattern.

00:25:15It's a little fake play action pass

00:25:17and Morgan has already cleared this area out

00:25:19for Stephan Starring,

00:25:20so there's a wide void there

00:25:21and once he gets the ball,

00:25:22Stephan Starring knows what to do with it.

00:25:2528 yards later,

00:25:27out of bounds at the 12-yard line

00:25:29and that's where the Patriots

00:25:30have another first down.

00:25:32This drive started back at the road 21.

00:25:34He's got one.

00:25:37Mixing up the plays well.

00:25:39Collins.

00:25:41And gets a cover.

00:25:43The man on top was Anthony Young

00:25:44and Barry Krause on the bottom

00:25:46along with Brad White.

00:25:48The nose tackle.

00:25:49Chalked that one up to Barry Krause

00:25:51and the nose guard Brad White.

00:25:53Krause came in tight,

00:25:55took Hogg Hanna on,

00:25:56hit up one-on-one straight

00:25:58and basically one.

00:25:59Did not give any ground

00:26:00and Brad White

00:26:01beat the block of Guy Morris

00:26:02and chalked that one up

00:26:04to the defensive side.

00:26:06So Guy Morris is the center.

00:26:07Pete Brock healthy,

00:26:08ready to go,

00:26:09but he will only be used in an emergency.

00:26:10On the right side,

00:26:11Paul Fairchild

00:26:12as he placed the injured Ron Newton.

00:26:14Art Crunkett replaced

00:26:15the ejected Steve Moore.

00:26:17Second down from the nine.

00:26:18Flag is down.

00:26:20Eason gets it to Stanley Morgan

00:26:22who dives in

00:26:23for yet another touchdown,

00:26:25but I believe the flag

00:26:26may go against New England.

00:26:27and takes back the touchdown.

00:26:37Holding number 66,

00:26:40offense,

00:26:41still second down.

00:26:42One of the problems

00:26:43we were just talking about.

00:26:44This hurts.

00:26:45As an offensive lineman,

00:26:46you never like to get called

00:26:47for holding,

00:26:48but you're going to see

00:26:48number 66 right there

00:26:50taking Barry Krause.

00:26:52I think they ought to give him

00:26:53two points for a takedown there,

00:26:54but as an offensive lineman,

00:26:55you really hate to hear

00:26:56your name called

00:26:57for holding any time,

00:26:58but in particular,

00:27:00when it takes points

00:27:00off the board.

00:27:02He's going to hear about this

00:27:03Monday morning.

00:27:05So Raymond Berry is now

00:27:07backed up to the 19-yard line.

00:27:10His offense is.

00:27:12Patriots need the two

00:27:13for a first down.

00:27:16The Colts have six

00:27:17defensive backs.

00:27:20Second and 17.

00:27:21And Willie Broughton came.

00:27:25Did Art Plunkett induce him

00:27:27to come?

00:27:28Now I believe Art Plunkett

00:27:29is number 70 offense.

00:27:32He's a little green

00:27:33behind the ears yet.

00:27:34He's playing in a loud,

00:27:35hostile stadium.

00:27:36He hasn't played that much.

00:27:37And he's in the heat of battle.

00:27:40He hasn't got that much

00:27:40playing experience.

00:27:41And it's difficult conditions

00:27:43for a young lineman

00:27:44to come in and play against

00:27:45players like the Colts have.

00:27:47So there's changes

00:27:48on the right side

00:27:49that we alluded to

00:27:50starting to tell a tale

00:27:51as Tom Ramsey

00:27:52signals the play-in,

00:27:54signal the four.

00:27:55Raymond Berry folds his arms

00:27:57as his team is marching backwards.

00:27:59This is second down and 22.

00:28:02Raymond Berry certainly has

00:28:03that he's in the battle here.

00:28:07Three wide receivers in the lineup.

00:28:10Six defensive backs.

00:28:13Tipped and intercepted!

00:28:17And then he lost it.

00:28:19Anderson intercepted it.

00:28:22And now the fight for the ball

00:28:24between Plunkett and Young.

00:28:26But Don Anderson

00:28:27activated last week

00:28:30from an ankle injury.

00:28:31The interception.

00:28:32Scott Birkus,

00:28:33a former Patriot,

00:28:34is excited.

00:28:36I think Scott Birkus

00:28:38got the deflection here.

00:28:41Or is it 95?

00:28:43All right.

00:28:44Right off the helmet.

00:28:45Chris Scott deflection the ball

00:28:47and an alert play

00:28:48by the defender here.

00:28:49Key turnover, Len.

00:28:50This is,

00:28:51the ball came out early.

00:28:53Fortunate to get it there.

00:28:54Anthony Young ahead

00:28:55to play on the recovery.

00:28:56A key defensive stand

00:28:57by the Colt defense.

00:28:59Keep in their own territory

00:29:00and the crowd loves it.

00:29:02First down at the 18.

00:29:03First career interception

00:29:05for the youngster from Purdue.

00:29:06The rookie,

00:29:07second-round choice,

00:29:07Don Anderson,

00:29:08just off injured reserve.

00:29:09Ball deflected off a helmet.

00:29:13McMillan.

00:29:13Now they try to run.

00:29:14They go right.

00:29:15He dives out to the 21

00:29:16for a pickup of three.

00:29:18So the Patriots

00:29:19had scored a touchdown.

00:29:21Stanley Morgan

00:29:22caught it nine yards.

00:29:23It was nullified

00:29:24because of holding

00:29:26by Paul Fairchild.

00:29:28Then offside,

00:29:29Art Plunkett.

00:29:30Now Rob Dahlhauer

00:29:31sees that he can

00:29:32try to tie the score up.

00:29:33When I took this job,

00:29:34I knew what the situation was.

00:29:36You can still win

00:29:36even if all the parts

00:29:37aren't there right now.

00:29:38And he's dismantled

00:29:39some of the parts.

00:29:40Curtis Dickey being

00:29:41the latest this week.

00:29:42Signed by the Browns.

00:29:43Raymond Butler.

00:29:44Art Schleister.

00:29:46Coach Dahlhauer

00:29:47is not all that concerned

00:29:47with this year.

00:29:48It's the future

00:29:49that he's building for.

00:29:50Patriots are concerned

00:29:51with the present

00:29:52right now.

00:29:53Trying to tie the Jets

00:29:54for first place.

00:29:55Second and seven.

00:29:56Pagel completes it.

00:29:57Far side.

00:29:58To Capers.

00:29:59Covered by Ronnie Lippert.

00:30:01Short of a first down.

00:30:02Out to the 26.

00:30:05This will be third and three.

00:30:06Wayne Capers.

00:30:07Former Steeler.

00:30:08I was surprised

00:30:09when they released him.

00:30:10I always thought

00:30:11he had a lot of talent.

00:30:12He does.

00:30:13He does.

00:30:13He has a lot of speed.

00:30:14He's a legitimate

00:30:15home run threat.

00:30:16He's averaging over 16 yards

00:30:18per reception.

00:30:19He, along with the rookie,

00:30:20Ricky Nichols,

00:30:21are the two speed merchants

00:30:22in this fleet

00:30:23of Colt receivers.

00:30:24This is third down

00:30:28and a long run

00:30:29closer to two yards.

00:30:32What an important third down.

00:30:35Aren't they awful?

00:30:36Pitchback.

00:30:37McMillan.

00:30:38Nothing doing

00:30:39and the Patriots

00:30:40have held

00:30:41an important defensive series

00:30:42for New England.

00:30:44The Colts certainly

00:30:45had the momentum

00:30:46their way

00:30:47and now

00:30:47Steve Nelson

00:30:48in on the tackle

00:30:49and Ron Stark

00:30:51will come onto the field

00:30:52as a punter

00:30:53and set a little bit

00:30:54of history

00:30:55with this next punt.

00:30:56We're going to take a look

00:30:56at Ray Donaldson

00:30:57generally regarded

00:30:58as one of the better

00:30:59centers in the league.

00:30:59This time he's going to get beat.

00:31:00Nose guard.

00:31:01Dennis Owens

00:31:02comes around the block

00:31:03by Donaldson

00:31:04and makes a tackle

00:31:05in Colt territory.

00:31:07This is one of the reasons

00:31:08that Dennis Owens

00:31:09is why the Patriot defense

00:31:10is one of the best defenses

00:31:12in the entire AFC

00:31:13against the run.

00:31:14Big strong

00:31:15front seven.

00:31:16So this will be

00:31:17a record setting punt

00:31:18no matter how far it goes.

00:31:20He will qualify him

00:31:21for the all time listings

00:31:22and he lists

00:31:23number one all time

00:31:25Ron Stark.

00:31:26His 300th career punt

00:31:28is deep but low

00:31:31and grabbed by Jim Bowman

00:31:34the up man

00:31:35and driven backwards

00:31:36inside the 30.

00:31:40So

00:31:40he's got the record

00:31:42I'm sure he's not too

00:31:43thrilled with the punt

00:31:44that set the record

00:31:44but he's in the books

00:31:46Ron Stark

00:31:47number one punter

00:31:48NFL history.

00:31:50Some credit Stark

00:31:51for the record

00:31:52but give some credit

00:31:53to the centers

00:31:54who have snapped the ball

00:31:55300 times

00:31:56and taken a lot of punishment.

00:31:57You did that

00:31:57when you were with the Dolphins.

00:31:58That's right

00:31:59and talk about

00:32:00thankless jobs

00:32:00man there is no more

00:32:01anonymous and thankless jobs

00:32:03than that of the NFL snapper.

00:32:05The only time

00:32:05the public even know

00:32:06he's there

00:32:07is when the ball sails

00:32:08either low and high

00:32:09and then he's a villain.

00:32:11So this game

00:32:11has settled down

00:32:12a little bit

00:32:13a scoreless third quarter

00:32:14after all those points

00:32:15in the first half

00:32:16and now with 3.52

00:32:17remaining in the third

00:32:18the Patriots will start

00:32:19first down at their 29.

00:32:22Eason comes out throwing

00:32:24completing

00:32:24to Stephan Starring

00:32:25out at the 35

00:32:27for a pickup of six.

00:32:34Stephan Starring

00:32:35who lined up

00:32:36at quarterback

00:32:36for one snap today

00:32:38ran a little wishbone play

00:32:39did it effectively

00:32:41now he's back

00:32:42to playing wide receiver

00:32:43do you suppose

00:32:47he has anything

00:32:47in his contract

00:32:48about him playing quarterback

00:32:49then?

00:32:50these athletes today

00:32:51have things in their contract

00:32:52about everything

00:32:53every little move

00:32:54at least the ones

00:32:57in a better bargaining position

00:32:58second and four

00:33:00at the 35

00:33:01another pass

00:33:01and another completion

00:33:04Tony Collins

00:33:05but just shy

00:33:06of the first half

00:33:07so let's see

00:33:08what's going on

00:33:09elsewhere around

00:33:09the National Football League

00:33:10defensive game

00:33:12in Pittsburgh

00:33:12and that's no surprise

00:33:14I'll end

00:33:1410-9 deep

00:33:16in the game

00:33:16in Pittsburgh

00:33:16Giants have come back

00:33:18to take the lead

00:33:18the Browns had a big lead

00:33:19earlier in that one

00:33:20Cincinnati rolling it up

00:33:2242 points already

00:33:23against Houston

00:33:23still in the third

00:33:24Minnesota having a tough time

00:33:26in Philadelphia

00:33:26on the schneid

00:33:27New Orleans

00:33:29Wade Phillips

00:33:30undefeated as a coach

00:33:31Wow

00:33:31sign him up

00:33:32Green Bay

00:33:33shutting out Tampa Bay

00:33:34Tampa Bay can't stand

00:33:35the prosperity

00:33:36after their overtime win

00:33:38so third and short

00:33:40less than a yard

00:33:42at the 39

00:33:43and Robert Weathers

00:33:45gets the first down

00:33:47out across the 42

00:33:48so Robert Weathers

00:33:50who has carried

00:33:52for less than 100 yards

00:33:53in the entire season

00:33:54gets the call

00:33:56on that third down play

00:33:58you're going to see

00:33:59some fine blocking

00:34:00by Brian Holloway

00:34:00and John Hanna here

00:34:01and also Mosey Dutuku

00:34:02there getting just enough

00:34:04of Dwayne Bickett there

00:34:05to allow Robert Weathers

00:34:06to clear for the first down

00:34:08and it's awfully tough

00:34:09to stop these Patriots

00:34:11in short yardage situations

00:34:13behind Holloway

00:34:13and Hanna

00:34:14and Mosey Dutuku

00:34:16as you saw in the graphic

00:34:18first down for the Patriots

00:34:19at the 43

00:34:20and the play goes

00:34:23straight ahead

00:34:23to Tony Collins

00:34:24heats up some more yardage

00:34:26and some more time

00:34:27Willie Broughton

00:34:27another rookie from Miami

00:34:29making a tackle

00:34:30to Tony Eason

00:34:31he ran a long drive

00:34:33last time out

00:34:34it was the penalties

00:34:35that killed him

00:34:36as you just saw

00:34:37Cedric Jones

00:34:37bring him the play

00:34:38from the sideline

00:34:39yes you're beginning

00:34:41to see a pattern develop

00:34:42it's almost as if

00:34:43in the later moments

00:34:44of this game thus far

00:34:46the Patriots

00:34:47are beginning to wear down

00:34:48this Colt defense

00:34:49the offensive line

00:34:50of Patriots

00:34:50coming out

00:34:51and grabbing it

00:34:52by the throat

00:34:52and taking control

00:34:53second and six

00:34:54at the 47

00:34:55Eason to pass

00:34:56outlet to Craig James

00:34:59Odom grabs him

00:35:02and close to a first down

00:35:04Odom was injured

00:35:05in that first half

00:35:06taped up

00:35:07with a dislocated finger

00:35:08he's back

00:35:08you know he went to college

00:35:09at Texas Arlington

00:35:11the only reason

00:35:11why I mention that

00:35:12is that they just

00:35:13up and dropped football

00:35:14last week

00:35:14to save money

00:35:15at his old college

00:35:16he played that poorly there

00:35:17Texas Arlington

00:35:19doing away with football

00:35:20so that was a first down

00:35:22in the last play

00:35:23James got the yardage

00:35:24Odom could not stop him

00:35:25and it's a first down

00:35:27in Indianapolis territory

00:35:29at the 47

00:35:30so the time of possession

00:35:35clearly in the favor

00:35:36of the Patriots

00:35:37but on the scoreboard

00:35:38it's 24-17

00:35:39as we near a minute left

00:35:40third quarter

00:35:41U-turn

00:35:43by Pryor

00:35:44fake to James

00:35:46Deason throwing

00:35:47another open receiver

00:35:48is Tony Collins

00:35:49all the way down

00:35:50to the 20

00:35:51and Eason is picking apart

00:35:53this Colts defense

00:35:54his receivers

00:35:55are getting open

00:35:56that one out of the backfield

00:35:57Tony Collins

00:35:58I believe the New England fans

00:36:01Len can breathe

00:36:02a little easier

00:36:03as the question of the day

00:36:04seems to be answered

00:36:05in a rather positive note

00:36:07Tony Eason

00:36:07today displaying

00:36:09much of the form

00:36:10that he displayed

00:36:10in 1984

00:36:11throwing long

00:36:12throwing deep

00:36:13running the ball

00:36:14aggressively

00:36:14when it's called for

00:36:15mixing his plays up well

00:36:17and it appears

00:36:18as though he's returned

00:36:19to his 1984 form

00:36:20first down at the 21

00:36:23after a 27 yard

00:36:25pickup to Collins

00:36:26Collins runs it

00:36:29nothing

00:36:29Dwayne Bickett

00:36:31wrapped him up

00:36:31for a loss

00:36:32and that will likely be

00:36:38the end of the third quarter

00:36:40as the clock will run down

00:36:42nothing has gone to form today

00:36:44Dwayne Bickett

00:36:45the good stop there

00:36:47but after all of that

00:36:48scoring in the first half

00:36:49no scoring

00:36:50in the third quarter

00:36:51so

00:36:52that's the end of

00:36:53three quarters of play

00:36:54from Indianapolis

00:36:5524-17 Patriots

00:36:57over the Colts

00:36:58right now

00:36:59this station break

00:37:00Len Berman

00:37:01along with Bob Kuchenberg

00:37:02at halftime

00:37:04it was 24-17 Patriots

00:37:06that's where it is

00:37:06after three quarters

00:37:07as we begin

00:37:08quarter number four

00:37:09with a second

00:37:10and 11

00:37:11from the 22

00:37:12New England

00:37:13Dawson

00:37:17pitched back

00:37:18to Craig James

00:37:19and he's chipped up

00:37:20again by Bickett

00:37:21the rookie

00:37:22and he gets

00:37:23congratulations

00:37:24a simple toss

00:37:26to the weak side

00:37:27and the blocking back

00:37:28is supposed to

00:37:28take the linebacker

00:37:29but didn't get

00:37:30Tony Collins

00:37:31did not get it done

00:37:32Dwayne Bickett

00:37:33again

00:37:34having an outstanding

00:37:35rookie season

00:37:37their number one

00:37:38draft choice

00:37:38and right now

00:37:39it's looking like

00:37:40a very good move

00:37:41you talked about

00:37:42perhaps the Colts

00:37:43defense getting

00:37:44worn down

00:37:44but in both cases

00:37:45on drives

00:37:46during the second half

00:37:47they seem to stiffen

00:37:48that's right

00:37:49they've given up

00:37:49a lot of yardage

00:37:50between the 30s

00:37:51and they've given up

00:37:52a lot of time

00:37:53but they've rose

00:37:54to the occasion

00:37:55down deep

00:37:55in their own territory

00:37:56total yardage

00:37:57320-173

00:37:58Patriots also have

00:37:59time of possession

00:38:00but here

00:38:00third and 14

00:38:03from the 25

00:38:04Easton going for

00:38:04all of it

00:38:05flag is down

00:38:06Morgan grabbed it

00:38:07for a touchdown

00:38:08and hits the wall

00:38:09what a throw-in catch

00:38:12but a flag is down

00:38:13the flag was down

00:38:14but I believe it was

00:38:15because Tate Randall

00:38:16of safety was

00:38:17safety blitzing

00:38:18and he blitzed

00:38:18a little bit early

00:38:19so they're going to

00:38:19decline it

00:38:20number 75 defense

00:38:22lined up in the

00:38:23neutral zone

00:38:23penalty is declined

00:38:25touchdown

00:38:26he held on

00:38:29and smacked the wall

00:38:30a 25-yard touchdown

00:38:31Stanley Morgan

00:38:32second of the day

00:38:33look at this one

00:38:34what a throw

00:38:35and catch

00:38:36let's see if he gets

00:38:36two feet down here

00:38:37there's the one

00:38:38there's one

00:38:40one

00:38:40and the crowds

00:38:44saw that replay

00:38:47on the scoreboard

00:38:48that's why they are

00:38:49booing

00:38:49they have a right

00:38:51to boo

00:38:52I believe

00:38:52Lynn

00:38:52we will take

00:38:53another look

00:38:54at that shortly

00:38:55from the first blush

00:38:56it did not look like

00:38:58he had two feet down

00:38:59he has a bare foot

00:39:02threw the ball

00:39:03for the extra point

00:39:04whether or not

00:39:06he had two feet down

00:39:07will not matter

00:39:08because on the scoreboard

00:39:09as the crowd

00:39:10boos

00:39:10the Patriots

00:39:12leave the Colts

00:39:1231-17

00:39:14as Tony Franklin

00:39:16tees it up

00:39:17you must feel

00:39:18for the Colts

00:39:18and their fans

00:39:19they cannot buy a break

00:39:20as you will see

00:39:21from the replay

00:39:22that should not

00:39:24have been a touchdown

00:39:24it is clear cut

00:39:25Tony Franklin

00:39:30kicks it away

00:39:30now with a

00:39:3114 point lead

00:39:32Bentley

00:39:33at the goal line

00:39:35Bentley

00:39:37stopped before

00:39:38he can get to

00:39:38this point

00:39:39now you watch

00:39:40the replay

00:39:40this is not a commercial

00:39:41this is live television

00:39:43you play the rest

00:39:44in the NFL

00:39:45you must have

00:39:46two feet in bounds

00:39:47you're going to see

00:39:47the left foot

00:39:48is off the ground

00:39:49when the ball hits

00:39:49right

00:39:50there

00:39:51the foot is up

00:39:58in Miami

00:39:59very upset

00:39:59about that call

00:40:00however

00:40:01if you're in

00:40:01New England

00:40:02you kind of like it

00:40:06will tell you

00:40:07they have had

00:43:53the players are so

00:43:54big and strong

00:44:32at AFC Central

00:44:34the two first place

00:44:34teams

00:44:35will be under 500

00:44:37if they

00:44:37both lose

00:44:38they'll both stay

00:44:39in first place

00:44:40top

00:44:40second

00:44:42and 14th

00:44:43the 33

00:44:44at that last loss

00:44:45drop play

00:44:45McMillan

00:44:46gets back

00:44:48maybe to the 30

00:44:49which would set up

00:44:51third and 11

00:44:52for the Colts

00:44:52Lester Williams

00:44:53shakes hands

00:44:54with Andre Tippett

00:44:55we haven't called

00:44:55Tippett's name

00:44:56that much this afternoon

00:44:57as you take a look

00:44:58at Lester Williams

00:44:59and on the tackle

00:44:59as well

00:45:00you're right

00:45:01we have not called

00:45:02Tippett's name

00:45:03that much

00:45:03he has 13 and a half

00:45:04sacks

00:45:05as most people know

00:45:06which is an incredible

00:45:07amount of sacks

00:45:08for a linebacker

00:45:09but in reality

00:45:10he's not really

00:45:10a linebacker

00:45:11he's rushing

00:45:11from a defensive end

00:45:12spot most of the time

00:45:13and the reason

00:45:14we haven't called

00:45:14his name much today

00:45:15is because the Colts

00:45:16are turning out

00:45:16one of their big

00:45:17offensive linemen

00:45:18to block it

00:45:19Colts have done poorly

00:45:21today on third down

00:45:22just two of nine

00:45:23it looks like

00:45:24an audible being called

00:45:24by Mike Pagel

00:45:25from the shotgun

00:45:29and he completes it

00:45:31to Booza

00:45:32who breaks away

00:45:33from Marion

00:45:33for a first down

00:45:35you don't see

00:45:42Fred Marion

00:45:43miss that many tackles

00:45:44but a big

00:45:45third down conversion

00:45:46from Pagel to Booza

00:45:48and the crowd

00:45:49is yelling

00:45:49Booza

00:45:50they like Booza

00:45:52here in Indianapolis

00:45:53and this battery

00:45:54of Pagel to Booza

00:45:55has been effective

00:45:56in the past

00:45:57and they're certainly

00:45:57being effective

00:45:57here again today

00:45:58excellent Moxie

00:46:00and wherewithal

00:46:01here to spin

00:46:02and get rid of

00:46:02the tackle

00:46:03and spin to the inside

00:46:04for enough yards

00:46:05for the first down

00:46:06Booza an excellent

00:46:07possession receiver

00:46:08how about this drive

00:46:10for the Colts

00:46:10all the way down

00:46:11to the New England

00:46:1116

00:46:12trying to make up

00:46:14for the bad call

00:46:15there's a flag down

00:46:16so is Capers

00:46:17in the end zone

00:46:18as it was overthrown

00:46:19and Lippitt

00:46:19and Claiborne covering

00:46:22both quarterbacks

00:46:23were over

00:46:23on the near side

00:46:24looking at Capers

00:46:25but a flag was thrown

00:46:26and then Capers

00:46:27went down

00:46:27and it's offside

00:46:29Patriots

00:46:30for the flags

00:46:33going against

00:46:34New England

00:46:34after they got

00:46:35the call

00:46:36their way

00:46:36on the touchdown pass

00:46:37offside

00:46:43number 99

00:46:44defense

00:46:45lined up

00:46:46in the neutral zone

00:46:47and that's

00:46:49Ben Thomas

00:46:49playing for

00:46:50Kenneth Sims

00:46:51who broke

00:46:52his left leg

00:46:53in the first half

00:46:54and has probably

00:46:55lost for the season

00:46:56so Thomas

00:46:56the second round

00:46:58choice out of

00:46:58Auburn

00:46:59the rookie

00:46:59lined up

00:47:00in the neutral zone

00:47:01offside

00:47:22handoff

00:47:23nearly dropped

00:47:23the snap

00:47:24from center

00:47:24rather

00:47:25and then turned

00:47:25around

00:47:26and was

00:47:26fortunate enough

00:47:27to be able

00:47:28to regather

00:47:28himself

00:47:29and get it

00:47:29to McMillan

00:47:36they're not

00:47:36in contention

00:47:37many people

00:47:38thought the Patriots

00:47:39would come in

00:47:39here and roll

00:47:40over them

00:47:40but it's a credit

00:47:41and tribute to

00:50:02Kenneth Sims

00:50:03on crutches

00:50:03having a terrific

00:50:05year

00:50:05and being

00:50:06consoled a bit

00:50:07by Ron Wooten

00:50:08who himself

00:50:09is out of action

00:50:10with an injury

00:50:10but Sims

00:50:11knocked out

00:50:13with a fractured

00:50:14leg

00:50:14in the first half

00:50:16trying to stop

00:50:16McMillan

00:50:17and that

00:50:18then is a

00:50:19major setback

00:50:19to the Patriots

00:50:20in their playoff

00:50:21aspirations

00:50:21and now the

00:50:24Patriots

00:50:24forced

00:50:24to having

00:50:25to keep

00:50:25the ball

00:50:26first down

00:50:26at their 25

00:50:27trying to nurse

00:50:28a 7 point lead

00:50:29Tony Collins

00:50:30the swing pass

00:50:31Collins

00:50:32breaks all the

00:50:32way up

00:50:33to the 35

00:50:34pick up

00:50:35a perhaps

00:50:369

00:50:36before Cliff

00:50:38Odom

00:50:38and Barry

00:50:38Krause

00:50:39could team up

00:50:40to stop

00:50:40the 5th year

00:50:41player out of

00:50:41East Carolina

00:50:42heads up play

00:50:44that time

00:50:44taking a look

00:50:45at Randy McMillan

00:50:46what a day he's had

00:50:47but a heads up play

00:50:48that time

00:50:49three touchdowns

00:50:50and he knocked

00:50:50Kenneth Sims out

00:50:51done it all

00:50:52you know

00:50:52really

00:50:53yeah he has

00:50:54a heads up play

00:50:55that time

00:50:55by Tony Eason

00:50:56he read the coverage

00:50:57he took what it gave him

00:50:59he slipped the ball out

00:51:00to Tony Collins

00:51:01in the flank

00:51:01and then Tony

00:51:02did the rest of it

00:51:03he was mismatched

00:51:04against Barry Krause

00:51:05and took Barry

00:51:06to school

00:51:07and turned a

00:51:082 yard gain

00:51:09into a 10 yard gain

00:51:10this will be

00:51:112nd in millimeters

00:51:12which is

00:51:13virtually a 3 down

00:51:14see what the Patriots

00:51:17choose to do with it

00:51:17I always like to see

00:51:18them go for the downs

00:51:19on 2nd and short

00:51:22rather than giving it

00:51:22to their short yardage man

00:51:24it's more exciting

00:51:24anyway

00:51:25well it is kind of

00:51:27a throwaway

00:51:28you have

00:51:28you have 3rd down

00:51:29of course

00:51:30in case you

00:51:31go for all the marbles

00:51:32here and don't get it

00:51:33in that respect

00:51:34it's a throwaway

00:51:34but it's become

00:51:35pretty common knowledge

00:51:36nowadays

00:51:37that this is a

00:51:37throwaway type zone

00:51:38so he has

00:51:42Stephan Starring

00:51:43the near side

00:51:44Stanley Morgan

00:51:45the far side

00:51:45let's see if he

00:51:46calls the fly pattern

00:51:47he does not

00:51:50Tony Collins

00:51:51gets the 1st down

00:51:53and more

00:51:53inside the 40

00:51:54and run out of bounds

00:51:55on the far side

00:51:56and Peter Luongo

00:51:58the equipment man

00:51:59chases him out of bounds

00:52:00let's go to

00:52:01Ahmad Rashad

00:52:02at NFL 85

00:52:03and let's get an update

00:52:04and see what's going on

00:52:05elsewhere

00:52:06turn over

00:52:07Mike Merriweather

00:52:07who had been having

00:52:08a quiet year

00:52:09big turn over there

00:52:11first down for the Patriots

00:52:12at their 44

00:52:13Eason to Collins

00:52:16he has a step

00:52:17Tony Collins

00:52:18looking for the end zone

00:52:19and Eugene Daniel

00:52:21bangs him out

00:52:22inside the 15

00:52:23another long

00:52:24pick up

00:52:25for Tony Eason

00:52:26what a drive

00:52:27by Tony Eason

00:52:28the Patriots

00:52:29here

00:52:29Len this is something

00:52:303 consecutive plays

00:52:31now Tony Eason

00:52:32has been mismatched

00:52:33on number 55

00:52:35Barry Kraus

00:52:36here the linebacker

00:52:37now this is a mismatch

00:52:38he's a big strong guy

00:52:39having to cover

00:52:39a little fast scat back

00:52:41like Tony Collins

00:52:42and that's asking a lot

00:52:43for a linebacker

00:52:44to cover him up

00:52:44and down the field

00:52:44there's just no way

00:52:46now this is 3 consecutive

00:52:47plays

00:52:48that Tony Collins

00:52:49has shown his

00:52:50former all pro skill

00:52:523 consecutive plays

00:52:53chalk up this drive

00:52:54almost a tired drive

00:52:55for Tony Collins

00:52:5644 yard pick up

00:52:58now at the 12

00:52:593

00:53:00the team's in

00:53:021-1

00:53:04push down

00:53:05Greg James

00:53:06picks his spot

00:53:08drives inside the 5

00:53:10and a flag goes down

00:53:11late in the play

00:53:12Brad White

00:53:13in on the stop

00:53:15see what the call is

00:53:17a holding

00:53:19against the Patriots

00:53:21they have been

00:53:21self-destructing

00:53:22offensively

00:53:23remember their only

00:53:24score in the second half

00:53:25really was not a score

00:53:26a touchdown

00:53:27that should not have

00:53:28counted

00:53:28holding

00:53:30number 73

00:53:32offense

00:53:33still first down

00:53:35John Hanna

00:53:36see the look on his face

00:53:40a little bit

00:53:41see a little bit of blood

00:53:43on his jersey as well

00:53:44yeah

00:53:44puts in a day's work

00:53:46doesn't he

00:53:46I don't imagine

00:53:47that's John's blood

00:53:48it's more than likely

00:53:49someone else's

00:53:50big John Hanna

00:53:51even the great ones

00:53:51can call every once in a minute

00:53:53hard to imagine

00:53:54that guy packing up

00:53:54a suitcase

00:53:55and going to work

00:53:56on the train

00:53:56as a stockbroker

00:53:57and lost it

00:53:58if he told me to buy

00:54:00I'd buy

00:54:00incongruous

00:54:01it seems

00:54:02so this play

00:54:03is backed up

00:54:04to the 19

00:54:04Patriots need

00:54:06inside the 3

00:54:07for a first down

00:54:08they'll call it first

00:54:10and almost 17

00:54:11Greg James

00:54:21and that play

00:54:23was stopped down

00:54:24by Chris Scott

00:54:25local college hero

00:54:27out of Purdue

00:54:28they said this

00:54:30defensive front 3

00:54:32would be hurting

00:54:32with Leo Wisniewski

00:54:33a career threatening injury

00:54:35in the preseason

00:54:36but

00:54:37they've done ok

00:54:38they said the front 3

00:54:39was the weak portion

00:54:40of the Colts defense

00:54:41but they turned in

00:54:42some good plays

00:54:42Chris Scott on that one

00:54:43that's right

00:54:45and Chris Scott's been

00:54:46playing a good solid game

00:54:47today as have

00:54:48their entire front 7

00:54:49they don't have

00:54:50the all pro

00:54:50the Mark Gastineau

00:54:52the big name player

00:54:54in there

00:54:54but they play very well

00:54:55as a unit

00:54:55spearheaded of course

00:54:56but a superior linebacking

00:54:58for

00:54:58so now

00:55:14so this will set up

00:55:15about 3rd and 6

00:55:16Anthony Young

00:55:43we're going

00:55:436 minutes left

00:55:44and if you're more

00:55:45than a touchdown up

00:55:46you have a good

00:55:46position

00:55:47so I wouldn't

00:55:47imagine the inning

00:55:48too risky

00:55:49on the shotgun

00:55:50the handoff

00:55:53inside

00:55:54and Craig James

00:56:06and give the ball

00:56:07to your halfback

00:56:08following

00:56:09whoa that is

00:56:10an excellent trap

00:56:11that brings out

00:56:12a lot of excitement

00:56:13in me

00:56:13that is how you

00:56:14drop a trap play

00:56:15Paul Fairchild

00:56:16the right guard

00:56:17pulled from the spot

00:56:17looped around the center

00:56:19and Chris Scott

00:56:20was coming in

00:56:21in a pinching charge

00:56:22and never saw him

00:56:23Paul Fairchild

00:56:25will enjoy that replay

00:56:27when they watch

00:56:27the films tomorrow

00:56:53Robert Weathers

00:56:54with a fine block

00:56:55he got into

00:56:56the defender

00:56:56and sustained

00:56:57his block

00:56:58just long enough

00:56:58to enable

00:56:59Mosey Tupu

00:57:00to get in the end zone

00:57:01here

00:57:01also John Hanna

00:57:02pulling out here

00:57:06keeps at it

00:57:06keeps the legs driving

00:57:07bothering the defender

00:57:09just enough

00:57:10to allow Mosey

00:57:11to get into pay dirt

00:57:11these Patriots

00:57:14have so many weapons

00:57:16they have such

00:57:16superior skill positions

00:57:18their receivers

00:57:19are elite

00:57:20and Collins

00:57:21and James

00:57:21are wonderful

00:57:22tandem of running backs

00:57:23and if they can get

00:57:24some good consistent

00:57:25quarterbacking

00:57:26they're going to be

00:57:27hard to beat

00:57:27the quarterbacking

00:57:28has been consistent today

00:57:29so has Tony Franklin

00:57:31and now

00:57:32with 521

00:57:33left in the 4th quarter

00:58:19everybody

00:58:20sending everything

00:59:11well it's not so much

00:59:13the New England defense

00:59:14Len

00:59:14I think it's the

00:59:15never say die Colts

00:59:16they refuse to quit

00:59:17don't they know

00:59:17they're down 14 points

00:59:18with only 4 minutes left

00:59:19they just keep coming back

00:59:21they keep getting up

00:59:21off the carpet

00:59:22kind of like Gene Fulmer

00:59:24did a few years ago

00:59:24you keep hitting them

00:59:25and Joe Frazier

00:59:26they just keep getting up

00:59:28if they get back

00:59:29in the end zone here

00:59:29we've got a ball game again

00:59:31let's pause briefly

00:59:32for station notification

00:59:33this is the NBC

00:59:34television network

00:59:35this is WBZ

00:59:40TV for Boston

00:59:41Colts to the 30

00:59:42they trail 38-24

00:59:444-23 remaining

00:59:46Booza in motion

00:59:47Wansley the ball carrier

00:59:48gets a hole

00:59:49and gets down

00:59:50to the 26

00:59:52pick up a 4

00:59:54there was an excellent block

00:59:56by Randy McMillan

00:59:57that time

00:59:57he came through there

00:59:58as the lead blocker

00:59:59and just cleared out

01:00:00two fellas

01:00:00and credit that play

01:00:02to the other blocking back

01:00:04a lot of times

01:00:05if you've got

01:00:05two talented ball carriers

01:00:07they don't like to do

01:00:07a great job of blocking

01:00:08they try to rest

01:00:09when they're not carrying the ball

01:00:10because they take such a punishment

01:00:12when they're carrying it

01:00:13in this case

01:00:13so Randy McMillan

01:00:14throwing a superior block

01:00:15and opening up a wide hole

01:00:17for George Wansley

01:00:18yeah but look how much time

01:00:19the Colts are taking

01:00:20to get a playoff

01:00:20the clock is not on their side

01:00:22it's now down to 345

01:00:24you can't afford to use

01:00:25the 30 second clock

01:00:27when you're trailing

01:00:27by 14 points

01:00:28second and six

01:00:2926

01:00:30and another running play

01:00:31it's as if they're going

01:00:33ground control

01:00:34and a few boos

01:00:35from the crowd

01:00:36Rod Dauhauer

01:00:40keeping it on the ground

01:00:41when you might think

01:00:42they'd go through the air

01:00:43the clock continues to run

01:00:45323 left

01:00:47Pagel looking to the side

01:00:52for a call

01:00:53a little bit of confusion

01:00:56going on now

01:00:56then they're sending in

01:00:58three different players

01:00:58they're going with their

01:00:59short yardage

01:01:00offense

01:01:01and they're wasting

01:01:02valuable time

01:01:02as you point out

01:01:03just lost a minute

01:01:05third and one

01:01:07Bentley

01:01:08first down

01:01:10but doesn't get out of bounds

01:01:12now he does

01:01:13they rule it out of bounds

01:01:14so the clock is stopped

01:01:16now 256 left

01:01:18and they are inside the 15

01:01:20and what an effort

01:01:21to get out of bounds

01:01:22remember the skins game

01:01:24coming up

01:01:24all that money on the line

01:01:25there's quite a bit of

01:01:27playoff money on the line here

01:01:29as the Patriots hope

01:01:31to tie for first place

01:01:33and should the Dolphins

01:01:35which is a big should

01:01:35but should they lose

01:01:36tomorrow night

01:01:37and the Patriots

01:01:38and Jets stay tied

01:01:39the rest of the way

01:01:40for first place

01:01:40and the Dolphins

01:01:41don't catch them

01:01:42the Patriots

01:01:43would beat the Jets

01:01:43in the head-to-head tiebreaker

01:01:45but of course

01:01:46there's a big game

01:01:46that the Patriots

01:01:47have to play in Miami

01:01:48before that happens

01:01:49Bentley

01:01:50Bentley

01:01:53hit down hard

01:01:58the crowd continues

01:01:59to boo

01:02:00no timeout taken

01:02:03so the clock

01:02:04continues to run

01:02:052.36

01:02:08and counting

01:02:09they have

01:02:12three timeouts remaining

01:02:13coming up

01:02:14for the Miami Dolphins

01:02:15tough games

01:02:18final four games

01:02:19starting with tomorrow night

01:02:20yeah the Dolphins

01:02:22certainly have their work

01:02:23cut out for them

01:02:24in the remainder of the season

01:02:25but they are

01:02:25like the Patriots

01:02:26they're in control

01:02:27if they can go undefeated

01:02:28you know they're going to be

01:02:29in the playoffs

01:02:29second and six

01:02:31at the nine

01:02:32Hagel throwing

01:02:35open is

01:02:35Boozer

01:02:36touchdown

01:02:36it's amazing

01:02:52the Colts

01:02:53are making

01:02:53this Patriot defense

01:02:54look just like

01:02:55any other defense

01:02:56an average defense

01:02:57and they're not that

01:02:58little pattern

01:02:59inside here

01:03:00booze

01:03:00wide open

01:03:01somebody

01:03:03either fell down

01:03:04or didn't

01:03:04didn't do a very good

01:03:06job of covering

01:03:06little play action

01:03:08holding the linebackers

01:03:09for just a little bit

01:03:09but the cornerback

01:03:10over there

01:03:10should have been

01:03:11Raymond Claiborne

01:03:12and he is

01:03:13badly beaten

01:03:14that is Freddie Marion

01:03:15the free safety

01:03:16don't know what the

01:03:17problem was in the

01:03:18secondary

01:03:18but it's six points

01:03:19Stark will hold

01:03:21for Allegra

01:03:21he boots it through

01:03:25and good

01:03:26and so with two minutes

01:03:27and eight seconds

01:03:28remaining in the

01:03:29fourth quarter

01:03:29the Colts are again

01:03:31within seven

01:03:3238 to 31

01:03:33and I will point out

01:03:35again the difference

01:03:36those seven points

01:03:37a touchdown

01:03:37that should not have

01:03:39counted

01:03:39when Stanley Morgan

01:03:41really had

01:03:41one foot out

01:03:42that's the difference

01:03:43right now

01:03:44might we see an

01:03:45onside kick

01:03:45well we'll definitely

01:03:46see an onside kick

01:03:47but speaking of the

01:03:48Patriots defense

01:03:49they have now allowed

01:03:5031 points

01:03:51only the Raiders

01:03:53on September 29th

01:03:55scored more

01:03:56against New England

01:03:57when they scored

01:03:5835

01:03:58in a Raider victory

01:04:01of Foxborough

01:04:01so Raymond Burial

01:04:02though he's got the lead

01:04:03and just 208 remaining

01:04:04even though he may tie

01:04:05for first place

01:04:06has some serious concerns

01:04:08the defense

01:04:09the season

01:04:10perhaps ending injury

01:04:11to Kenneth Sims

01:04:12with the broken leg

01:04:13even if they

01:04:15travel home

01:04:16with a win

01:04:17it will not be

01:04:17a happy flight home

01:04:19because of some

01:04:20of the negatives today

01:04:21and if this score

01:04:23holds up

01:04:23again

01:04:24Rod Hauer

01:04:25lost it

01:04:25perhaps on a

01:04:26controversial call

01:04:27although the flip side

01:04:28if that pass

01:04:29was ruled

01:04:29no touchdown

01:04:30the Patriots

01:04:31would then

01:04:31have attempted

01:04:32a 42-yard

01:04:33field goal

01:04:34which would

01:04:35have been well

01:04:36within Tony Franklin's range

01:04:37well that's right

01:04:38as you say

01:04:39the Patriots

01:04:40if they get out of here

01:04:40with a win today

01:04:41are going to be

01:04:41in first place

01:04:42but they're battered

01:04:43by injuries

01:04:44they've lost their best

01:04:45defensive lineman

01:04:46they also have

01:04:47an offensive line

01:04:48here we go

01:04:49that's battered

01:04:49onside kick

01:04:50they all go to the left

01:04:51the ball is loose

01:04:52and it is covered

01:04:54by the Patriots

01:04:56was that Craig James

01:04:57under there

01:04:57good attempt

01:04:59the ball came loose

01:05:01and let's watch them

01:05:01unpile

01:05:02and who's got the football

01:05:04that was an excellent

01:05:05onside kick

01:05:06the ball skittered

01:05:07through the first line

01:05:08of Patriot defenders

01:05:09and I think you're right

01:05:11Craig James

01:05:11probably made the recovery

01:05:12we're going to see

01:05:12take a look at it here

01:05:13everybody in the ballpark

01:05:15knows you see the Colts

01:05:16going over to the other side

01:05:1710 men over on that side

01:05:19goes through

01:05:22John Hanna there

01:05:23yeah I believe it is

01:05:24Craig James

01:05:25making the recovery

01:05:27a key

01:05:28key play

01:05:28by the halfback

01:05:30by the fullback

01:05:31I should say

01:05:31to the Patriots

01:05:322-0-4 left

01:05:34they'll get an automatic

01:05:35timeout

01:05:36for a two minute warning

01:05:37as they start

01:05:37after this play

01:05:39as they start at the 48

01:05:40Godwine's defense

01:05:44running play

01:05:45Craig James

01:05:45stopped at midfield

01:05:47so

01:05:47the two minute warning

01:05:49so maybe the Colts

01:05:50not calling timeouts

01:05:51before

01:05:52will work to their advantage

01:05:53the crowd didn't like it

01:05:54but now in addition

01:05:55to this two minute warning

01:05:56the Colts have

01:05:57three full timeouts left

01:05:58we'll be back

01:05:59the Patriots

01:06:00nursing a lead

01:06:01Len but it's also

01:06:03right now

01:06:03the difference

01:06:04between first

01:06:04and second place

01:06:05in the AST East

01:06:06they're watching

01:06:09down in Miami

01:06:10I wonder if

01:06:10Don Shul and company

01:06:11are just scratching

01:06:13their heads a little bit

01:06:13saying it's a long way

01:06:15before this season

01:06:16is settled

01:06:16football can take

01:06:18a lot of funny bounces

01:06:18and you just saw

01:06:19one of them there

01:06:20as far as

01:06:21the officials call

01:06:22that's right

01:06:24that's right

01:06:25you've got to take

01:06:26their head off

01:06:27to the Colts

01:06:27they're just playing

01:06:28playing their hearts out

01:06:29today

01:06:30all right

01:06:31important defensive

01:06:32series here

01:06:32they're playing

01:06:33for first place

01:06:34you've seen the standards

01:06:35second and nine

01:06:36at the 49

01:06:37snap never came

01:06:39a lot of motion

01:06:39and they'll step

01:06:40off five

01:06:41against New England

01:06:42ball never was

01:06:45snapped

01:06:45in all those

01:06:46right guard

01:06:47and right tackle

01:06:48now it'll be

01:06:51second and 14

01:06:52this Hoosier dome

01:06:54right now

01:06:55is

01:06:56I would say

01:06:57at least half empty

01:06:58it was a sellout

01:06:59as you can see

01:07:00from some of the shots

01:07:01as our director

01:07:02Harry Coyle

01:07:03has the cameras

01:07:04pull out

01:07:04I mean

01:07:05these people went home

01:07:06and the football game

01:07:07is very much in doubt

01:07:09right here

01:07:09with two minutes remaining

01:07:10and the Colts

01:07:11have three timeouts left

01:07:12and they have moved

01:07:13the ball against

01:07:14that Patriot defense

01:07:15should they get

01:07:15the ball back

01:07:16well I think

01:07:16perhaps the fans

01:07:17are conditioned

01:07:18to weak fourth

01:07:19photos up here

01:07:20but certainly

01:07:20not the case today

01:07:21second and 14

01:07:23at the 44

01:07:24decent throwing

01:07:29and flags are thrown

01:07:31it will be

01:07:31defensive pass

01:07:32interference

01:07:33I believe

01:07:34against Preston Davis

01:07:36a former Patriot

01:07:37the fans don't like it

01:07:38but it's a good call

01:07:39pass interference

01:07:43number 27 defense

01:07:45first down

01:07:46it was waived

01:07:49in the Patriots

01:07:50training camp

01:07:51in 1983

01:07:51and now

01:07:53early hit

01:07:54there you see

01:07:55the contact

01:07:55Preston may have been

01:07:57trying to get the ball

01:07:57but there was one problem

01:07:58there was a defender

01:07:59between

01:07:59a receiver

01:08:00between him and the ball

01:08:01clearly an early hit

01:08:02and that penalty hurts

01:08:03now it's going to be

01:08:04very difficult

01:08:05for the Colts

01:08:06to get the ball back

01:08:07they still have

01:08:08three timeouts

01:08:09still 155 left

01:08:11they purely

01:08:13cannot allow

01:08:14a first down

01:08:14because then

01:08:15because then you start

01:08:15talking about

01:08:16field goal range

01:08:17first down

01:08:23at the 43

01:08:24Craig James

01:08:27stopped

01:08:29you see an extra

01:08:29little punch thrown

01:08:30in there

01:08:31perhaps by Anthony

01:08:31Young

01:08:32and the Colts

01:08:33take the first

01:08:34of their three timeouts

01:08:35which they were smart

01:08:37enough now

01:08:38in retrospect

01:08:38not to take earlier

01:08:39when the crowd

01:08:40was a bit restive

01:08:41that's right

01:08:42they knew they had

01:08:42three timeouts left

01:08:43and a two minute warning

01:08:44to stop the clock

01:08:45so you're going to see

01:08:46you're going to see

01:08:47the Colts trying to

01:08:48gang tackle

01:08:48and strip the ball

01:08:49from the Patriots

01:08:50well when time is back in

01:08:52the Patriots

01:08:53will face second

01:08:54and seven

01:08:55at the 40

01:08:55they lead the Colts

01:08:5738-31

01:08:58both teams

01:08:59with two timeouts left

01:09:001-48 remaining

01:09:02Lynn earlier

01:09:04when the Colts

01:09:05had the ball

01:09:06and they were driving

01:09:06for a touchdown

01:09:07to draw within

01:09:08seven points

01:09:09you made the remark

01:09:11that perhaps

01:09:11why are they not

01:09:12calling a timeout

01:09:12of course the fans

01:09:13were booing

01:09:14now you see why

01:09:15the Colts only chance

01:09:16to win this ball game

01:09:17was to score then

01:09:18and to save their

01:09:19three timeouts

01:09:20and a two minute warning

01:09:21to stop the Patriots

01:09:22James

01:09:28stopped at the 40

01:09:29the Colts take another

01:09:30timeout

01:09:31it has been a

01:09:32fumble free

01:09:33football game

01:09:34several penalties

01:09:35two ejections

01:09:36two injuries

01:09:38one very serious

01:09:39and some interceptions

01:09:42three in the game

01:09:44two important ones

01:09:45led to points

01:09:46for the Patriots

01:09:47and 69 points scored

01:09:49but other than that

01:09:49there's really not

01:09:50much happening today

01:09:51144 remaining

01:09:53remember

01:09:54the Skins game

01:09:55golf coming up

01:09:56with Nicholson

01:09:57Palmer and the rest

01:09:57Patriots will head

01:09:59home to Detroit

01:10:00after a three game

01:10:01road trip

01:10:02the Colts

01:10:03will head to Chicago

01:10:05to play the Bears

01:10:06outdoors

01:10:07at Soldier Field

01:10:08not an enviable task

01:10:09but this is the kind

01:10:12of game

01:10:13when a team is going

01:10:14as poorly as

01:10:14Rod Dauhauer's team

01:10:16is going

01:10:16where even in defeat

01:10:17there's a lot of

01:10:19positive here

01:10:19Randy McMillan's

01:10:20first three touchdown

01:10:22game of his career

01:10:23Mike Pagel

01:10:24has looked sharp

01:10:25in addition to

01:10:26the controversial touchdown

01:10:27remember the first

01:10:28Patriots touchdown

01:10:29was set up by

01:10:30a catchable ball

01:10:31that went off

01:10:31Wayne Capers shoulder

01:10:32and intercepted

01:10:33by Roland James

01:10:34so the Colts

01:10:36if they lose

01:10:37should they lose

01:10:38there were factors

01:10:40working against them

01:10:41other than the way

01:10:41they played

01:10:42absolutely

01:10:42they can hold

01:10:43their head high

01:10:43today

01:10:44they played very well

01:10:45today

01:10:45and earlier when I said

01:10:46that their future

01:10:47their concern is next year

01:10:48I'll finish a thought

01:10:49after this play

01:10:50third and seven

01:10:51at the 40

01:10:51crowd comes to life

01:10:53the crowd that's left

01:10:54Craig James

01:10:55fights for a first down

01:10:59he got it

01:11:01and they did it

01:11:02on the ground

01:11:02a big

01:11:03big play

01:11:04Craig James

01:11:06and they will stop

01:11:10the clock

01:11:11and take a look

01:11:11what a clutch play here

01:11:13big John Hanna

01:11:14and Brian Holloway

01:11:14the two all pros

01:11:15from the left side

01:11:15pulling over to the right

01:11:1673 there

01:11:17big block

01:11:18tucking in behind

01:11:19Holloway

01:11:20and then you have that

01:11:21that tonnage

01:11:22on the hoof

01:11:23it's tough to stop

01:11:24and Craig James

01:11:25is no dummy

01:11:26he knows where to tuck

01:11:27and stay behind

01:11:27John Hanna

01:11:28and Brian Holloway

01:11:29and that was a clutch

01:11:30performance by

01:11:30perhaps three all pros

01:11:32Holloway and Hanna

01:11:33the established all pros

01:11:34but Craig James

01:11:35knocking on the door

01:11:36this year

01:11:36and that is

01:11:38the type of play

01:11:39that championships

01:11:39are made of

01:11:40Denver beat Pittsburgh

01:11:44where do you see

01:11:46the Cleveland Giants

01:11:47score

01:11:47if we can get it up

01:11:48Cincinnati

01:11:48beat Houston

01:11:50so Cincinnati

01:11:51within a game

01:11:52of Pittsburgh

01:11:52New Orleans

01:11:54winning their first

01:11:55Phillips

01:11:56Wade Phillips

01:11:57the Rams

01:11:58are trying

01:11:59to throw away

01:12:00that four game lead

01:12:01Green Bay

01:12:02with the shutout

01:12:03Lynn earlier

01:12:08I was talking about

01:12:09Rod Dauhauer

01:12:10not being so concerned

01:12:11with this year

01:12:12and I didn't mean

01:12:13they don't want to win

01:12:14but certainly

01:12:14the important thing

01:12:16for Rod Dauhauer

01:12:16and his staff

01:12:17in his first year here

01:12:18as we

01:12:19taper down here

01:12:21as the Patriots

01:12:21win the clock up

01:12:22the important thing

01:12:23for Dauhauer

01:12:24and the Colts

01:12:24is to perform

01:12:25like they did today

01:12:26to instill some pride

01:12:28and some sense

01:12:28of identity

01:12:29look at this one

01:12:30the Browns

01:12:31will take over

01:12:31first place

01:12:32if that holds on

01:12:33Ernest Beiner

01:12:34ran from two yards

01:12:35out with a minute 52

01:12:36to take the lead

01:12:37over the Giants

01:12:38but the Colts

01:12:38cannot stop the clock

01:12:40they are out of timeouts

01:12:41as you see

01:12:4267 seconds

01:12:44and counting

01:12:44and the Patriots

01:12:45can just fall on the ball

01:12:47and Raymond Burry

01:12:48and the Patriots

01:12:55consecutive loss

01:12:56going to three

01:12:58and ten

01:12:59and that's true

01:13:00that's got to be

01:13:00very discouraging

01:13:01and frustrating

01:13:02and Coach Dauhauer

01:13:03has commented

01:13:04how he had no idea

01:13:05the pressures

01:13:06and the frustration

01:13:07of being a head coach

01:13:08in this league

01:13:08and they've lost

01:13:09five in a row

01:13:10and certainly

01:13:10that's nothing

01:13:11there's nothing

01:13:12exciting or optimistic

01:13:14about that

01:13:14but with the exception

01:13:18at Kansas City

01:13:18these Colts

01:13:19have not played badly

01:13:20and it's important

01:13:21as a matter of fact

01:13:23in the stage

01:13:24of the Dauhauer

01:13:25led Colts

01:13:26that they

01:13:27continue to improve

01:13:29and play their hearts out

01:13:30the remainder of the season

01:13:31even though they have

01:13:32no hopes for the playoffs

01:13:33it's important

01:13:34so they can play well

01:13:36and get some pride

01:13:37and some momentum

01:13:38built up

01:13:39to carry them over

01:13:40to the 1986 season
