Stop with that bullshit. If they were soft and the answer was to get physical with them, it would have been done by now. That shit obviously doesnt work cause they're better then that. So lets stop with the soft shit. No team left in this playoffs is soft. Colts didnt work 7 minutes off the clock against arguably the toughest team in the league, in the 4th quarter, by running 12out of 13 times, being soft. Just stop. That argument is old and wrong.

First he said the WR's are soft, which has little to do with the running game. (you dodn't run the ball 12 out of 13 times because Wayne and Harrion were leading the way).
Second, It has worked, every year they have been knocked out of the playoffs it's been by a physical defense. Your offense didn't bean the Ravens, your Defense did.
I wont call the Colts WR "Soft" but I'll explain why everyone says that. Every year they get knocked out of the playoffs by a physical defense, the defense blitzes Manning and the DB's jam Harrison and Wayne at the line and it throw's off the timing patters that they run. The Blitz giving Manning less time to throw and the bumps at the line slowing down the release of the WR's, that is why they're called "soft". Until they prove otherwise that will always be the image.
Until Manning wins the big game he will always be 2nd to Brady, it's the same with Marino and Montana. Marino set all the records but Monatana won the rings.
If the Pats were out, I'd like to see Manning win a ring, simply because I like him more then Marino and would rather no see him compared to Marino in the "can't win the big one" way, but until he does, that's how he will be looked upon.
