You are correct. The league actually issued an apology to the Colts saying that the bad calls cost the Colts the game.
And I agree w/ you on the Jets comeback and the Balt game. From that 9ers game on our O while a little inconsistent was actually pretty good. The problem was our D started off terrible and stayed that way. If they had improved to where they were just mediocre we probably win another ~3 games that year (including the Balt. game).
Also, I forgot to mention that I was 20 and a junior in college in Peyton's rookie year, which I suppose makes me amongst the old fucks on the board.
