Trailing 31-14 with just over ten minutes remaining in New England, Peyton Manning and the Indianapolis Colts used just under two and a half minutes of game clock to cut that Patriots lead to ten points. Manning found Blair White over the middle for a five-yard score, capping a 73-yard drive that was keyed by a 36-yard run by second-year running back Donald Brown.
Week 11 NFL, Patriots Vs. Colts: Peyton Manning, Blair White Cut Pats Lead To 10
Manning’s third touchdown pass of the game makes the score 31-21 in favor of the Patriots with 7:57 remaining in regulation.
Manning has thrown for 291 yards and three scores in the contest, but his two interceptions have turned into 10 points for the Patriots. Quick math... yep, that’s the deficit in the game.
Tom Brady (186 yards, two touchdowns) and the Patriots take over in desperate need of taking some time off the clock. You can’t give Peyton Manning time and the ball. That’s what the Pats did in Indy in 2009, and it cost them dearly.
