AFC – New York Jets vs Indianapolis Colts Preview

Colts get another shot at the surprising Jets. Peyton Manning stood on the sideline with his helmet still on and arms folded, helpless as the Indianapolis Colts’ undefeated run ended in Week 16. The New York Jets won’t get any such breaks this time.

At stake now is a Super Bowl 44 live appearance, with Manning and the Colts getting another shot at the confident Jets and their powerful defense in the AFC championship Sunday afternoon.

With home-field advantage already secured, Indianapolis (15-2) pulled Manning and other starters early in the second half against New York (11-7) on Dec. 27. The Jets took advantage, ending the Colts’ league-record 23-game regular-season winning streak while grabbing control of their playoff destiny with a 29-15 victory.

Though he never questioned rookie coach Jim Caldwell’s decision, Manning didn’t appear happy about it on the sideline at Lucas Oil Stadium as the Colts gave the Jets a window of opportunity that they have taken full advantage of.

Hosting its first conference title game since its Super Bowl title run four years ago, Indianapolis is hoping the extra rest will pay off against a New York team that had to scrap its way through the end of the regular season and two hard-fought playoff victories.

“I told them we wanted to end the regular season fresh, ready and well prepared,” Caldwell said. “I believe we did. It doesn’t give you any guarantees. It’s what you believe in and your convictions and playing well when it comes time.”

Despite trailing by five when the Colts decided to rest some of their regulars, the Jets kept hearing how Indianapolis handed them the victory. They used that as motivation to become the only road team to win in the divisional round, but coach Rex Ryan insists his team doesn’t need any extra incentive for this contest.

“This is the AFC championship,” said Ryan, whose team ranked first in total defense and scoring defense this season. “The motivation is going to come from the fact that the winner of this game advances to the Super Bowl. That’s probably motivation enough.”

This is the first time a conference championship game will have two first-year coaches, and the first time it will feature a Super Bowl rematch. The Jets’ only trip to the Super Bowl came before the AFL-NFL merger, when Joe Namath and New York stunned the heavily favored Baltimore Colts 16-7 in 1969.

Manning is certain to eventually join Johnny Unitas, his predecessor from that Super Bowl, in the Hall of Fame, and he appeared sharp coming off the bye in helping Indianapolis beat Baltimore 20-3 on Saturday.

New York, the AFC’s fifth seed, has won seven of eight after losing six of seven.

Against the Chargers, Sanchez threw a go-ahead, 2-yard touchdown pass to tight end Dustin Keller three plays into the fourth quarter to give New York its first lead at 10-7.

Game Recap

Manning and the Colts rally past Jets to reach Super Bowl 44.

Peyton Manning threw two second-half touchdown passes and rallied the Indianapolis Colts from an 11-point, first-half deficit for a 30-17 victory Sunday over the New York Jets in the AFC championship game.

The Colts (15-2) are now headed back to Miami for the second time in four years and to their fourth Super Bowl in franchise history.

Manning finished 26 of 39 for 377 yards with three TDs. The four-time MVP also became the first player in league history with seven 300-yard postseason games. That broke a tie with Kurt Warner and Joe Montana.

The Jets’ magical run ended with their first road loss in six games.

New York (11-8) built a 17-6 lead and took advantage of trick plays. But rookie Mark Sanchez and the Jets were shut out in the second half. (Source)
