Andrew Luck threw three interceptions and completed 44 percent of his passes against the Detroit Lions and may well have won the Rookie of the Year award in the process.
Thanks to two Luck touchdown passes in the final three minutes, the Indianapolis Colts stunned the Lions. Everyone remembers the play, Luck flipping a quick pass to Donny Avery after threatening to run with 0:00 on the clock to win it.
I just remember being on a shuttle buss to the Detroit/Windsor border- myself, my fellow Colt friend, and about 30 other Lions fans on their phones ready to smash them.
Amazing for the Colts and horrible to miss all at the same time. I will always regret that, and told myself from that day forward to never give up on my squad until the clock strikes 0:00 (and even then wait until the play is over).

Let's be honest, how many people watched till the end, the 2003 comeback vs the defending SB champ Bucs on MNF, when we were down 35-21 w/less than 5 min. to go?
I know I did.
