There was something off about the 2011 NFL season. In addition to my favorite franchise suffering a defeat in the sport’s biggest game, there was something missing. Even if Archie’s youngest had not completed that go-route to Mario Manningham, and the Patriots had held on to the game, that Super Bowl would have been tainted. I hated the 2011 season. 

Between 1999 and 2010, the Indianapolis Colts failed to reach playoff contention just once. They were a staggering example of organizational consistency, and they posed as a how-to guide for general managers in the midst of rebuilding. Step One: Draft Peyton Manning. Step Two: Prosper.

Over those years, the rivalry between the Colts and the Patriots was one of the more exciting matchups in the league. Because of the NFL’s scheduling rules, first place teams within the conference play each other annually. Every single year, the two teams would meet in the regular season, serving as an appetizer to the inevitable main course, a January clash that would all but decide the class of the AFC.

It's an age old question..."If Sal tweets, but his Twitter handle sucks, does anyone read it?" Well, wonder no more! Sal is back on the team a week after being DFA'd from the podcast for refusing to change his Twitter handle. This time, he's reassured us that his new Twitter identity is a surefire winner! The guys talk the latest Ravens news, O's west coast road trip, an uninvited guest drops by to predict who the A.L. Wild Card winners will be and of course the signature Confessions segment!
