If the Colts fans were sharper, they would have started in with a "Who's Your Daddy?" chant.

ETA: Here's the clearest analysis of whether the decision made sense, and this guy says "yes". He also notes that the third-down pass was more misguided if the plan was to go for it anyway.
That's my stance. Ok, fine, go for it. But that call was ridiculous under those circumstances.

I will say that Belichick was right to not have much faith in his defence to do much to stop the Colts.
