Colts president Bill Polian said Wednesday that he blames the team's offensive line and special teams play for their Super Bowl loss to the Saints. "Our offensive line, by our standards, did not have a good game," Polian told the team's website. "They were outplayed by the Saints' defensive line. Our special teams, in terms of handing the ball ?- both in the return game and on the onside kick ?- were outplayed by the Saints. Therein lies the result. It had nothing to do with strategy or preparedness or toughness or effort." Polian's comments aren't the first time that the Indianapolis' offensive line has caught criticism following a postseason loss. Peyton Manning said there were "problems in protection" following a loss to the Steelers in the 2005 AFC divisional round.
