For as good as the Colts O-Line is, I would have figured Indy would rely a lot more on the run game.

I thought if they had a chance to win, Taylor would have to run wild ala Derrick Henry last year. Thought they’d have to control the clock, line of scrimmage.

they dominated time of possession (34 minutes to 25), but Taylor didn’t even crack 100 yards, got stuffed on a pivotal 3rd down, and Rivers/Allen cancelled each other out statistically

When was the last time a playoff game was turnover-free?

BUF/IND was a relatively clean game- no INT's, no lost fumbles

Colts were actually the first playoff team to have 450 yards of offense, no turnovers and lose

I'd like to say " classic Rivers" but he played really well. Bad choices left points on the field. I think Indy was slightly intimidated by how quickly Buffalo can score .

This was a really good NFL football game.

The missed FG was what did them in, not Rivers. Statistically, he and Allen cancelled each other out.

even if that fumble was ruled a fumble, that would not have been Rivers’ fault

Going for it on 4th and goal at the 4ish rather than taking 3 points i think was the biggest error,i guess thats what i mean by pressure to gather points due to Buffalos ability to score.
