Play calling is the coaching.
What the Colts were trying to do w/ the runs and short throws is get the Pats to play up, maybe put 8 in the box, and try and stop the short stuff, possible drop the zones and go man-up, and when/if the Pats did that the Colts would have gone deep.
The Pats gave up the 5 and less, and wouldn't let the Colts burn them deep.
