December 14, 200916 yr Colts vs Saints Now that would be awesome! Colts have Jacksonville, NY Jets and Buffalo remaining on the regular schedule. Saints have Dallas, Tampa Bay and Carolina remaining on the regular schedule. Then of course they'd both have to win out in the playoffs. Thoughts?
December 14, 200916 yr Both teams will probably rest some starters in the final games since they have clinched, so there is the possibility of a regular season upset, but with this schedule its remote. However, the playoffs are a different story. I really liked what I saw from Arizona, and I think that they might knock off the Saints. I also think that Indianapolis has been squaking out soem of their victories, and that it would not be inconcievable to see San Diego, whom has owned them in recent years, to go into the RCA Dome and beat them. Bottom line, I would say the odds are actually still pretty long, say 15-1.
December 14, 200916 yr They both a decent chance of winning out in the regular season if they play for it. But I don't think either makes it to the SuperBowl.

Also they haven't even clinched home-field advantage yet, so they wouldn't rest anyone until the final week of the season if they did want to.
December 14, 200916 yr Colts do not care about 16-0. Their starters will see very limited action in the last couple of games. Saints, except for Jonathon Vilma say they want to go 16-0. We'll see how that plays out. I doubt either one go undefeated.
December 14, 200916 yr I think the thought of it is really cool, but one of them won't make it to the Super Bowl.......I just have a funny feeling about that. Later.
December 14, 200916 yr Won't happen. You think a Colts team led by the intimidating Curtis Painter will win against Jacksonville in Jacksonville? I want some of what you're drinking....

December 14, 200916 yr Jacksonville always plays Indy pretty good. Jets defense may bother Manning - and I stress "may." Bills are so inconsistent. I don't think they'll beat Indy. Cowboys in December are well, Cowboys in December. Bucs shouldn't be a problem for Saints. And Panthers may cause problems for New Orleans, just because it is a division game. For the life of me, I don't know how Fox has survived in Carolina.

For the life of me, I don't know how Fox has survived in Carolina. Colts in January are well, Colts in January. I would be more than surprised if they are in the superbowl, undefeated or not. I am not disagreeing with your post at all, just a perfect quote to explain my opinion of the Colts. I would not be surprised with their schedule and history to see them go undefeated and lose by double figures at home in their first playoff game.

I do not want the Colts perfect, nor do I want them in the Superbowl.
