Section problem

Section 3 was just made to put the game legend above the game list, which is in Section 4. I don't know how to, but someone needs to change it so that the game legend is in the game list's section, placed above it. Kidlittle (talk) 19:12, 25 November 2010 (UTC)[reply]

2007 AFC Championship

Should we put this in the Notable Games Section? I'd say it's noteworthy, marking the first time the Colts under Manning had defeated the Patriots in the Postseason, it was the AFC Championship, and it led to the Colts's first Super Bowl in Indy.JIMfoamy1 (talk) 18:53, 19 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

2003 AFC Championship Game & '04 Divisional Playoffs

I think these games should be in the notable games section. These were huge games in the rivalry and were a huge storyline surrounding what happened in the 2006 AFC Championship Game. Without these games the 2006 Championship Game loses a lot of its meaning.

In general, both of these games were considered upsets. Vegas may have favored the Patriots, but the talking heads favored the Colts. Most talking heads picked the Colts in the 2003 Championship Game because of what the Colts did to the Chiefs in the Divisional round. All the talking heads picked the Colts in the '04 Divisional game because of the season Peyton Manning was having and what the Colts offense had accomplished (i.e. 522 points scored). No one thought they could be stopped. So it was a stunner when they only scored 3 points in that game. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.25.24.98 (talk) 01:39, 28 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Manning/Brady Rivalry

It's obvious someone should make a separate page for the Manning/Brady rivalry. Not only is that particular rivalry arguably the greatest in NFL history, it's probably the most important. For 13 years, the biggest storyline of seemingly every season focused around one of those 2 quarterbacks, and their rivalry has outgrown this particular page. If irrelevant NFL moments like The Butt Fumble have their own page, I think the greatest NFL player rivalry of all time deserves it's own page. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.64.158.60 (talk) 01:05, 21 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Adam Vinatieri

He did not play in Super Bowl XLIV. He was injured during the 2009 season, and Matt Stover kicked for the Colts in that game. This was corrected. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2601:1:0:317:b5df:d0e1:13d7:f37a (talk) 01:27, 17 November 2014‎ (UTC)[reply]
