Drogba is on fire. Big game for Chelski against The Arsenal the Sunday
after Thanksgiving. :)

I calculate that Belichick's decision to go for it gave us a 70% chance
of winning the game.  Here's my logic.  Indy needed two things to happen
for them to win.  They needed us not to convert, and they needed to
score a touchdown from the30 with 2 minutes and no time outs.  Their
chances were the product of two probabilities.

1.  Chances of stopping the Patriots conversion -- call it 60%
2.  Chances of scoring from the 30 with 2 minutes left and  no timeouts
-- call it 50% (remember all the punting they did that day.) 

Indy's chances of winning:  (60%) * (50%) = 30%

Patriots chances = 70%.

In addition, I think that Indy had the same 50% chance of getting a
touchdown whether they were on our 30 or theirs.  

If Faulk were 3 feet downfield Belichick is a genius.  If Reggie Wayne
doesn't make a fingertip catch, Belichick is a genius.  If the O-Line
doesn't get gashed just when they needed to make a stop, Belichick is a
genius.
