NFL Playoffs: Colts at Patriots: "Once again, it is time to marvel at the Patriots' coaching and preparation. Was there really any doubt that Belichick and his staff would figure out a way to shut down Manning and the NFL's deepest and most talented pass-catching corps?"

What I have yet to hear from any commentator or analyst is how in the world ONE TEAM is capable of stopping the most prolific offenses in the NFL day in and day out. Regardless of players because the Patriots' defense was decimated by injuries like most teams. And how come nobody copies them? I think Mike Nolan is a good defensive coach and the 49ers should improve with him at the helm, but Romeo Crennel must be an absolute genius. How can you pass up a guy like that?
