Super Bowl 44: Colts 17 Saints 31
Haiku Count: 1533
Early lead squandered
Momentum shift in second
Six snaps on offense.
Key plays define game.
Garcon’s drop, onside fumble,
and Manning’s pick six.
Costly injury
not Freeney’s bad ankle but
Jerraud Power’s foot.
Big coaching blunder
Stover’s kick from 50 yards
None made in 4 years.
Massive fourth down stop
means nothing when offense can’t
convert third and one.
Bright lights on big stage
Normally resil’ent Colts
crack under pressure.
Despite ev’rything
Colts had ball and chance to win
with three minutes left
Deep disappointment
will not make true fans forget
fantastic season
All credit to Saints
Fortune favors the bold, and
this night, they were bold!
No joy in Naptown
No parade or vict’ry tour
Just thoughts of August.
