Jake, my point was that the team wasn't getting some giant psychological boost over this. Do I think for half of one second that Brady and at least one other person didn't know? Not for half of a nanosecond. But saying that this caused a psychological advantage is too much of a stretch.
No one will ever convince me that this caused a 45-7 score. The Colts ran out of gas one game short of the Super Bowl, plain and simple.
