Some players just simply have a team's number.
Reggie Miller is an obvious example, since he always saved his best for the Knicks, and while the New Yorkers won more series over the years, it was the guard who provided the Hollywood moments (Literally, as we found out this past winter with "Winning Time."
Despite a shaky effort in his recent meeting, Peyton Manning has always seemed to own the Texans. He has 15 wins over the team compared to two losses, and has thrown for 4,854 yards and 40 touchdowns in those contests with just nine interceptions.
In many of these situations, the person causing a team problems is a superstar in the said sports. But that's not the case with the player who has seemed to have the Colts number at times through the years.
Nope, not him. Four years ago, this would have obviously been Tom Brady who won his first six games against the Colts. He's only got one win, however, since 2005 so that really doesn't apply anymore. Plus in that time he's become an icon on and off the field.
Josh Scobee is the one you don't here as much about. Sure, he's been a reliable kicker for the Jaguars, but his kicks against the Colts have so far helped to make him a career.
Yes, his 59-yard field goal to beat the Colts was a stunning blow for the team and its fans on Saturday and took away what appeared to be another comeback win for Manning and Company. True, you never know in overtime, but the Colts' final drive gave them plenty of momentum.
But a kick that would have been good from five yards farther back ended that hope, but it really shouldn't have come as a surprise to die hard fans of the Colts, who have seen these heroics before.
In 2004, Scobee nailed a 53-yard field goal to beat the Colts with 38 seconds to go to help Jacksonville win 27-24, handing the team their only loss home loss of that season.
Four years later, Scobee did it again (Pictured Above), this time hitting a 51-yard field goal with four seconds left to hand the team their second loss at Lucas Oil Stadium.
You might remember his 60-yard sprint to grab the ball which he nailed the winning kick with at the end of the game.
He was off and running again after his third game-winning field goal against the Colts, a sprint of joy that has stung the Colts throughout the years.
Its unlikely that the Jaguars will win the division this season, and the Colts will likely continue to win 80 percent of the games in which they face the team in teal. But at least one player will end his career knowing he was a thorn in the side of one of the most consistent teams in NFL history.
Within No. 10 at least at little blue Kryptonite.
So what other unknowns do think have given the Colts the most problems over the years? Please let me know in the comments and thanks for reading.
