ENGLEWOOD, Colo. -- Indianapolis owner Jim Irsay backed down a bit after Broncos coach John Fox and former Colts general manager Bill Polian chided him for comments critical of Peyton Manning. Fox used his weekly SiriusXM NFL Radio appearance Tuesday to criticize the Colts owner for sounding ungrateful for all Manning did for his team and city, including winning a Super Bowl in 2007, and Polian used the same platform to say Irsay was wrong in both his facts and opinions. After a series of tweets defending himself Tuesday night, Irsay took to Twitter on Wednesday to say he meant that if the Colts had given Manning better special teams and defence, they could have won more than one Super Bowl, instead of asking the quarterback to do too much. He added that he found it hard to see how anyone could misinterpret his comments, but controversy sells, so he understands why people try to stir things up. In a conference call with Denver media Wednesday, Colts coach Chuck Pagano said Irsay harbours no ill will toward Manning. "I dont think theres anybody that Mr. Irsay respects and cares for more than Peyton," Pagano said. "What cant you say about Peyton? What hes done for this organization, what hes done for the city, our fans -- what hes done for football -- its off the charts. And certainly all I know is that our owner has the utmost respect and love and passion for that guy and always will." Irsay told USA Today in an interview Tuesday that the Colts turned to Andrew Luck two years ago and released Manning rather than pay him a $28 million roster bonus because they were looking for more playoff success. "Weve changed our model a little bit, because we wanted more than one of these," Irsay said, showing his Super Bowl ring. "(Tom) Brady never had consistent numbers, but he has three of these. Pittsburgh had two, the Giants had two, Baltimore had two and we had one. "That leaves you frustrated. You make the playoffs 11 times, and youre out in the first round seven out of 11 times. You love to have the Star Wars numbers from Peyton and Marvin (Harrison) and Reggie (Wayne). Mostly, you love this," Irsay added, showing his ring again, according to the newspaper. Those comments were similar to the ones Irsay made in an interview with The Associated Press last summer, when the Colts owner said his only regrets about releasing Manning were that he wanted the star quarterback to throw his final pass as a Colt and he wished Manning had departed with more than one Super Bowl ring. So, instead of relying on the high-charged offence Manning directed, Irsay said the teams future February celebrations would come more frequently if the Colts ran a more balanced offence and divided the budget more evenly between the offensive and defensive players. Dictating the terms of his post-practice Wednesday news conference as effectively as he orchestrates his offence from the line of scrimmage, Manning paid virtually no heed to this weeks comments from Colts owner Jim Irsay. Manning said he had no comment when asked for his reaction to Irsays interview earlier this week when he said he had to give up the old Indy offences "Star Wars" numbers in a quest for more Super Bowl rings. Irsays latest verbal barrage, coming as it did this week, created quite a buzz. Fox normally isnt one to criticize anyone in public, but Irsays comments clearly struck a nerve. "I thought it was a bit of a cheap shot," Fox said on SiriusXM. "In my opinion, they were disappointing and inappropriate. You know, Peyton would never say anything because hes too classy to do that. "They sounded a little ungrateful and unappreciative to me for a guy thats set a standard, won a Super Bowl, won division titles, won four MVP awards, and Id be thankful for that one Super Bowl ring because a lot of people dont have one." Polian fired back at his old boss, saying Irsay had it wrong. "For one thing, I dont believe that Baltimore had two at the time that we were fired, all of us, Peyton, me and the rest of the staff, (coach) Jim Caldwell at the end of the 11 season," Polian said. He said Irsay was "very upset" after the Colts lost to New Orleans in the 2010 Super Bowl, "and I think its pretty telling that getting to the Super Bowl in his mind doesnt count. And for anyone who is in the game and who has to make that journey from training camp to the Super Bowl, you know that its awfully difficult to get there. "And as John Fox said ... if you have one, you count yourself lucky. Ive had teams that have been to six Super Bowls and won one. Im not ashamed of that record by any means, and Im certainly not ashamed of what we did in Indianapolis." Manning is 160-70 in the regular season -- joining Brady as the only quarterbacks with 90 more wins than losses -- but is just 9-11 in the playoffs with eight first-round exits. The Broncos -- who have won 19 of 23 games under Manning, but lost to Baltimore in the playoffs -- visit the Colts on Sunday night in Mannings first return to Indianapolis since his teary-eyed goodbye news conference alongside Irsay in March 2012. Mannings former coach, Tony Dungy, said on a conference call this week that he thinks Irsay wouldnt have let Manning go had he known Manning would bounce back as he has. "I can almost guarantee you that if he knew that he was going to be healthy like this and playing this kind of football, in hindsight I dont think he wouldve done it," said Dungy, whos now an NBC football analyst. "But with everything the way it was at that time, with Andrew being there and being available, knowing the scouting report on Andrew and the percentages of Peyton coming back and playing well at that point, it was the right thing to do." Irsay defended himself in a string of responses on Twitter on Tuesday night, when he quoted Manning as saying that both he and the owner wanted him to stay in Indianapolis but "circumstances forced our hand." He finished with a joke, saying he hopes for old times sake that Manning completes some passes to his old teammates such as safety Antoine Bethea. Jim Thome Jersey .

"I like our position in the standings and I like how our team is playing," LaRoche said after Washington swept a day-night doubleheader from the Cubs on Saturday.CHICAGO -- Corey Crawford was there every time. Slap shots, wristers, backhands and tips, he stopped each one of them. The Chicago Blackhawks needed a rebound game from their goaltender, and he delivered in a big way. Crawford made 34 saves in his third career post-season shutout, and the Blackhawks got back into their playoff series with the St. Louis Blues with a 2-0 victory in Game 3 on Monday night. "Im just going shot by shot," Crawford said. "Its all I could do the whole game was worry about the next one and focus on the next shot and stop that. I dont want anything else going through my mind through that hockey game." Jonathan Toews and Marcus Kruger scored as the defending Stanley Cup champions bounced back after a pair of overtime losses in St. Louis. Toews 21st post-season goal was only the second score by a Blackhawks forward in the series. "Three games in a row. Its been a very intense series and extremely close," Blackhawks coach Joel Quenneville said. Ryan Miller shook off another slow start and finished with 23 saves, but Toews shot at 4:10 of the first went through the goaltenders legs and was the only score for most of the game. "Its not a good goal. Well leave it at that," Miller said. It was quite a turnaround for Crawford, who was upset with his play after Saturdays 4-3 loss. Barret Jackmans winning goal in Game 2 went through Crawford, prompting the goaltender to say he had to play better for Chicago to win. Quenneville met with Crawford on Sunday, and he responded with one of the best games of his career. "We have a lot of one-on-one meetings throughout the season, but we get ramped up at playoff time," said Quenneville, a former NHL defenceman. "I generally stay away from the goalies. We chatted. Basically I was commending him on accepting that responsibility (for the loss)." Crawford drew chants of "Co-rey! Co-rey from the capacity crowd at the United Center. He was helped by a sound performance by Duncan Keith and Chicagos defencemen, who stepped up without the suspended Brent Seabrook. The Blackhawks killed three St. Louis power plays, while the Blues penalty-kill unit went 4 for 4, including a 5-on-3 disadvantage in the second. "We knew this was going to be a long series, but we really played hard, we really played well," St. Louis coach Ken Hitchcock said. "We did a lott of the things we needed to do to win the hockey game, but youve got to give their goaler credit.dddddddddddd He was good, especially late." The Blues, who scored tying goals late in regulation in each of the first two games, pulled Miller with 57 seconds left, but the Blackhawks held on. Kruger stuffed home an empty-netter in the final seconds. Game 4 is Wednesday night. Each team was without a key contributor after Seabrook wiped out Blues centre David Backes with a big hit in Game 2. The five-minute major and game misconduct penalty for Seabrook led to Vladimir Tarasenkos tying power-play goal with 6.4 seconds left. Seabrook was suspended for three games by the NHL, putting Sheldon Brookbank in the lineup for the first time in the series. Playing with Keith, Brookbank turned in a solid performance in his 19th career playoff game. While Backes was out with an upper-body injury, centre Patrik Berglund returned for the Blues after missing three games. Berglund, who had 14 goals and 18 assists this season, skated behind the net for a nice wraparound opportunity in the first period, but was turned away by Chicago defenceman Nick Leddy. Seabrooks hit on Backes, and at least one knee-on-knee blow by Bryan Bickell, increased the tension between Central Division rivals. But Game 3 was surprisingly civil, with each team wary of another penalty that could swing the series. There was a lot of chirping from each side, and that was about it. Looking for a spark, Quenneville put Toews, Patrick Kane and Bickell on the same line for the start of Game 3. The trio had a lot of success in the Blackhawks run to the title last year. The move worked. Toews connected from the top of the left point in the first, beating Miller with a shot that took an unusual bounce. Bickell also created a couple of quality chances with some slick passing. "If thats how its going to go in, then were doing a good job of taking care of the clean chances and the easier ones for them," said Blues defenceman Kevin Shattenkirk, who was right in front of Toews on the goal. "We just have to keep going." NOTES: Blues F Vladimir Sobotka went to the locker room after he took a power-play shot off his right arm in the second, but he returned later in the period. ... The announced attendance of 22,112 was the 268th consecutive sellout for the Blackhawks, counting the playoffs.
