If the Colts win their next two games they will unquestionably be the best in the league.

They have a really tough road ahead of them.

Sublime,

When did it become ridiculous to have an opinion about a team? I hope you realize I also want the Patriots to beat the Colts so the Jaguars can still have a shot at the AFC South. I don't see either team having a significant advantage over the other. So I take the position of the devil (aka Manning) being better than Brady and that is where I decide the Colts are above the Pats. But I am a ridiculous homer.

the funny thing is, what happens if Indy wins?

nobody even knows that Indy is undefeated, with NE getting all of the press attention.

if Indy wins, does everyone immediately get on the Indy bandwagon and NE goes by the wayside? or everybody just says its a fluke and ignores Indy?

peyton >>> brady

pats >> indy

saying peyton > brady and thats why indy > pats is really silly. the patriots have better skill players and a better defense (by a noticeable margin IMO).

If Indy wins the press will shamelessly jump aboard the bandwagon.

I'm actually basing it on what I saw last Monday Night vs Jacksonville that made me say the Colts were the best team in football. Manning even in a game where his accuracy was not the best was making reads that even the most elite QB's would struggle with. I'm disgustingly sick of seeing the man play football because of what he does to it. I never really appreciated what he did until that game.

Maybe its the fact that I get to watch about 15-20 hours of film a week of football and get a chance to break it down and it's help me in evaluating certain things when I watch games on the weekend. It's not much, but it's enough for me to appreciate someone that I didn't before hand.

I think you are missing Dallas Clark which I feel has found a way to torch safies and LB's this year. Clark is an enourmous part of the offense, not to mention his blocking skills have increased this year as well.

i am willing to call the skill positions a wash, but then you get into depth and the like, coaching staffs. i mean NE is just better...i am sorry. they are 4 point favorites ON THE ROAD which means like 7 or so on nuetral field. granted thats only a bettering line, but the betting line is a REAL GOOD indicator of overall teams strenghts.
