In the wee hours after the Colts’ 427th come-from-behind victory, this one over Jacksonville, something strange occurred to me: During my 10 years following this team, I’ve written roughly a million-and-a-half words that have never seen the light of day.
I should have saved them all and compiled them into a two-volume set called “Half-Written Columns That Got Deleted Because the Colts Came Back in the Fourth Quarter.”
See, when you’re on deadline during a night game, you’ve got to write as the game goes along, and if the Colts are losing through three quarters, you’ve generally written 550 words to reflect that fact.
That is, until they start doing things that nobody in football history has done before. We’re not talking run-of-the-mill comebacks. We’re talking epic, history-making, did-I-just-see-that kinds of comebacks.
