I said this past week that it was Austin Collie, not Pierre Garcon or Anthony Gonzalez, that was the Colts’ true number-two receiver. Collie rewarded my faith in him by delivering a 12-catch, 171-yard, two-touchdown performance. His 16 targets were more than Wayne and Clark, combined. Once Manning found the match-up he wanted, he exploited it all the way to a 14-point victory. Yes, Collie benefited from the constant double coverage on Clark and Wayne, but he made the most of his opportunities by running good routes, having sure hands, and getting good yardage after the catch.
