This is the match-up that, everybody has been waiting on, New England Patriots{6-2} go visit the unbeaten Indianapolis Colts{8-0}, to see who is the top team in the AFC, One of these two teams will probably be in the Super Bowl, Out of the AFC, Pittsburgh, Indianapolis, and New England have won five out of the last six Super Bowls, and they have represented the AFC, six out of the last six, and will New England, [been one of two, of the only team's to stay undefeated, in regular season], let the Colts stay undefeated as well.
Miami thought they would grind it out, and hold the ball as much as possible, and not let New England have the ball, but New England had no problem with that, The wildcat worked for the Dolphins on the first series of the third quarter, when they used it eight times, the last a 1-yard touchdown pass from Brown to Joey Haynos as they took a 17-16 lead, That 16-play drive lasted 10:09, But Brady and Moss wasted little time regaining the lead, Randy Moss caught six passes for 147 yards and one touchdown, while Tom Brady went 25-for-37 for 332 yards one touchdown and one INT, his third straight game with more than 300 yards and team-record 27th of his career, In the first half Brady-Moss could not get the the same plays, but that was not the case for the second half, now New England is the leader in the AFC East.
In a hard fought game, against division rival Houston, Peyton Manning and the Colts had another record breaking game or shall we say records, Indianapolis is the fourth team in league history with 17 straight regular-season wins,
Peyton Manning, the three-time MVP, tied Hall of Famer Fran Tarkenton for fourth in career victories (125) and became the first player in league history to throw for 40,000 yards in one decade. Tight end Dallas Clark caught 14 passes, the third-highest single-game total by an NFL tight end, and with eight receptions, Reggie Wayne moved past Hall of Famer Raymond Berry and into second on the Colts’ career reception list, but in-spite of all the record , Houston was ready to break one of there own, and that was to beat the Colts, The Texans dropped to 1-14 all time against the Colts, including 0-8 in Indianapolis, this game went back and forth, not till the last second of the game when Houston missed a field goal, with time running out, did the Colts win.
