to me the defense could only do so much against that colts team. when i look at that game, i think of the 2 missed field goals, the td before halftime, and the play where sanchez got leveled yet they called holding on the jets. you make those 2 field goals and at the very worst hold them to a field goal before halftime worst case scenario, the colts get the ball back in the 3rd quarter down 23-9. that said the jets caught some lucky breaks with missed field goals in both the bengals and san diego games so it goes both ways i guess.
that's been my issue with peyton. he's a great regular season qb. he should've won more then 1 super bowl though. it's a team game but the losses to pittsburgh in 2006, both san diego playoff losses, and a few other games earlier in his career are beyond me.
going 14-2 with home field advantage and losing to a 6 seed in indy is one thing, doing the exact same thing in new york on a team that would be a super bowl favorite is something way different.
unless peyton is handed to the jets for dirt cheap and his contract is very cap friendly (which wouldn't make sense on either the colts or his part) i don't see any way peyton is a jet.
2 names i would be happy with as backup qb's though are jason campbell or david garrard. when healthy either of them would be a more then serviceable backup and fully capable of taking care of things if sanchez doesn't show improvement next season. especially jason campbell if he's willing to sign with someone as a backup.
