Though the Colts won at least 10 regular season games for five consecutive years under Head Coach Tony Dungy, the team could not get to the Super Bowl, losing in the AFC Playoffs from 2002 to 2005. The 2006 Colts went 12-4 in the regular season but expectations were low in the playoffs as the team only earned a three-seed in the AFC. Dwight Freeney jersey
Nonetheless, on January 21, 2007, Saturday helped the Colts win the AFC Championship game against the New England Patriots when he recovered a teammate's fumble in the end zone and scored a touchdown. In that same game, the Patriots' left guard Logan Mankins also scored a touchdown on a fumble recovery, making that game the first in NFL playoff history to have two offensive linemen score touchdowns in the same game.

It was also the first playoff game in which an offensive lineman and defensive lineman (Dan Klecko) from the same team scored a touchdown. Saturday also provided the key block on the game-winning touchdown run by Joseph Addai, pancaking Vince Wilfork, with quarterback Peyton Manning naming Saturday's play "The Block."[2] Two weeks later, he helped the Colts win Super Bowl XLI against the Chicago Bears.
