Jags "sour grapes" can't change loss

Jaguars.com reports - Jack Del Rio planned to do his own review of the penalty that allowed the Colts to continue their game-winning touchdown drive, and chances were Del Rio wasn't going to like what he would see.

"The last drive, we get an exceptionally late call, so I'll be taking a look at that one," Del Rio said following the Jaguars' 24-17 loss at Alltel Stadium on Sunday.

A holding penalty against cornerback Dewayne Washington on a third-and-five pass incompletion by quarterback Peyton Manning provided the Colts with a second chance, and they used that opportunity to drive 69 more yards in 11 more plays and score the game-winning touchdown on a three-yard run by Edgerrin James.

Let me get this straight... After the penalty, the Colts drove 69 yards in 11 plays and you are going to blame the Refs?! Couldn't hold them to a field goal? Where is the vaunted "Jag D" during those 11 plays and 69 yards?

That's what I would review Mr. Del Rio
