AFC – Jets-Colts Preview

Last year, Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts advanced to the Super Bowl at the expense of coach Rex Ryan and the upstart New York Jets.

Ryan and the Jets have a score to settle at Lucas Oil Stadium — and, this time, it’s personal.

In a rematch of last season’s AFC championship game, the Jets look to give the Colts a taste of playoff disappointment in a wild-card showdown Saturday night.

New York (11-5) went on improbable playoff run as the fifth seed last January, and appeared headed for a stunning Super Bowl appearance before Peyton Manning and the Colts (10-6) ended those hopes with a 30-17 win. Manning helped erase an 11-point, second-quarter deficit by throwing three touchdown passes, and Indianapolis dominated the second half by outscoring the Jets 17-0 before losing to New Orleans in the Super Bowl.

Overall, the Colts are 5-1 against Ryan’s defenses, and Manning has 12 scoring passes and two interceptions.

However, this could be Ryan and the Jets’ best chance at eliminating Indianapolis, which needed a 43-yard field goal from Adam Vinatieri as time expired to beat Tennessee 23-20 on Sunday and clinch a playoff berth. The Colts won their seventh AFC South title in eight years, reaching the playoffs for a ninth consecutive season to tie Dallas’ NFL record.

If the Jets win, they’ll visit the Patriots next week, while a victory for the Colts would send them to Pittsburgh. (Source preview: ESPN)

GAME RECAP

Nick Folk kicked a 32-yard field goal as time expired Saturday night, giving the New York Jets a 17-16 first-round playoff victory over the Indianapolis Colts.

New York (12-5) now heads to New England for a third meeting next Sunday.

The Colts (11-6), AFC champions last year over the Jets, thought they had won it when Adam Vinatieri made a 50-yard field goal with 53 seconds left, his longest kick since 2008.

But the Jets got a 47-yard kickoff return from Antonio Cromartie and Mark Sanchez set up the field goal with an 18-yard pass to Braylon Edwards at the Colts 14. New York called timeout with 3 seconds to go, and Folk hit the winner.

New York’s LaDainian Tomlinson rushed 16 times for 82 yards and scored two TDs, both on 1-yard runs.

Peyton Manning was 18 of 26 for 225 yards and one TD. (Source)
