Dwight Freeney will receive a 1-year contract worth $8.644 million dollars after he was franchised by the Colts. He played in all 16 games and made 29 tackles, had 5.5 sacks, defensed 3 passes and forced 4 fumbles. He also really stepped up in the playoffs and was a major factor in the Super Bowl run of the Colts last season.
None of the Colts TEs put up great numbers individually, but together they were an awesome unit as they caught 85 passes for 946 yards and had 6 TD catches. Peyton Manning is always looking for those guys over the middle and I’m certain that will happen again next season.
Ben Utecht had been mostly used as a blocker until Dallas Clark got hurt. But then he showed off a good set of hands. He played in 15 games (all starts) and he caught 37 passes for 377 yards (10.2 avg). For his career, Utecht has played in 27 games (17 starts) and he has caught 40 passes for 436 yards (10.9 avg) with 2 TD catches.
Dallas Clark proved how important he was to the Colts offense in the post-season, but his regular season was marred with injury. Clark played in 12 games (all starts) and he caught 30 passes for 367 yards (12.2 avg) with 4 TD catches. For his career, Clark has played in 52 games (49 starts) and he’s caught 121 passes for 1,618 yards (13.4 avg) with 14 TD grabs.
Bryan Fletcher is the #3 TE but he still was a contributor on offense this season. He played in 15 games (3 starts) and he caught 18 passes for 202 yards (11.2 avg) with 2 TD grabs. For his career, Fletcher has played in 31 games (15 starts) and he has caught 36 passes for 404 yards (11.2 avg) with 5 TD catches.
TOny Dungy has won a ton of games in the regular season but today he became a great football coach. He did it with dignity too as he thanked God for the win on the podium after the game. This win will also put Tony Dungy in the Hall of Fame as this was the elusive goal that he’s been chasing that he finally got! Great job Coach Dungy.
How could he possibly be picked as the MVP of this game? His best pass was to a guy with no one within 15 yards of his receiver! Dominic Rhodes, Joseph Addai or Kelvin Hayden should have won the MVP of this football game. Wasn’t it enough that he got the monkey off his back? Did they really have to give him this award?
The Indianapolis Colts pushed the Bears around tonight and left the field as World Champions. The Colts held onto the football for 38:04 of the game and outgained them 430 to 265!
Peyton Manning won the MVP of the Super Bowl as he completed 25 of 38 passes for 247 yards with 1 TD pass and 1 interception. The Colts offensive line was dominant as they paved the way for the Colts running backs! Dominic Rhodes was awesome tonight as he carried the ball 21 times for 113 yards (5.4 ypc) with 1 TD run. Joseph Addai was also very, very busy as he carried the ball 19 times for 77 yards (4.1 ypc) and he caught 10 passes for 66 yards. Reggie Wayne only caught 2 passes for 61 yards, but one of the catches was a long TD reception in the first quarter. Marvin Harrison also had a decent game with 5 receptions for 59 yards.
The defense came to play tonight as they kept taking the ball away from the Bears. With cornerback Nick Harper hurting and sitting on the sideline, reserve corner Kelvin Hayden made the biggest play of the football game when he intercepted a pass by Rex Grossman early in the 4th quarter and returned it 56 yards for a TD to give the Colts a 29-17 lead. Bob Sanders then picked Grossman off on the Bears next possession and pretty much sealed the Bears fate!  Linebackers Gary Brackett (8 tackles) and Cato June (7 tackles) both had pretty good games.
