Default Baltimore pulling for Indy this weekend

Quote from one Baltimore fan on Indy site. Living in Md, I have to say, I have heard this numerous times this week. The only team the fans fear is the Pats.

Re: Baltimore will be pulling for Indy

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

A lot of us are pulling for Indy simply because we don't want to play the Patriots (assuming they are going to take care of business against the Jets). Fact is, New England is playing much better football recently. I mean you guys stumbled a little down the stretch, losing 4 of your last 7. NE seems to be peaking at the right time, they are the better road team, they are better in cold weather, and based on recent history they are simply a better playoff team. Not saying the Colts couldn't steal this one, just that they don't scare us as much as the Pats.

Cold weather in Baltimore? It'll probably be in the 50s or 60s.

For the very same reasons (kinda), I'm pulling for KC. I would rather play Baltimore than SD, and KC has a puncher's chance of beating SD in SD (familiarity and all that).

Not that any of this matters, of course. KC's defense stinks, and the Dolts will tear them to shreds on Saturday.

Makes sense... after all I'm pulling for Kansas City this week because Baltimore is soft!

Why don't you guys want to play SD?

Does "Marty Ball" ring a bell?

I figure regardless of order, we are should expect to play Balt and SD. If you want to be the best, beat the best. Lets play ball

SD doesn't worry me too much--but their week off combined with a cross-country trip for the Patriots would give them an added edge.

And thusly is home field an advantage in the playoffs...
