2003 Week 4 Indianapolis Colts (3-0) at New Orleans Saints (1-2)

Sunday Sep 28, 2003
Start Time: 8:37pm
Stadium: Louisiana Superdome
Attendance: 70,020
Time of Game: 3:01

SNF on ESPN featuring the surging Colts visiting the floundering Saints. This would turn out to be a career day for Peyton Manning at this point, as he set a club record with 6 touchdown passes. Three of them went to Marvin Harrison, who also finished the night with 6 catches for 158 yards. The Colts forced 4 turnovers, scoring 4 TDs off every one. The Saints defense, already a leaky unit, was missing 5 starters, and it showed as they received one of their worst beatdowns in their own house. Manning of course grew up a Saints fan, and his father was in the stands watching that night. 2003 was the year in my opinion the Peyton Manning that was just enshrined in Canton truly emerged, and never looked back. He captured his first MVP award that season, and the Colts became a precranial powerhouse under his guidance moving forward.

In 2016, 98.5 The Sports Hub in Boston did a radio show about the 1976 Patriots called Rough Injustice:

The NFL should have done a Missing Rings or a Football Life show about this team.

Ray "Sugar Bear" Hamilton. Yeah, that was a rough call.

Man I miss Eisen/Mariucci/Sanders highlights show after all the games played.  They were just soooooooo good together, like in the above clip.  Legit funny in a way that never felt forced and they could talk football when they needed to without going over-the-top.  

Yeah they were the best.  

 

I still go back and watch the Tebow highlights with that whole crew going nuts
