Except Meterparel on WEEI this morning.

To sum it up, he said "I don't think the Pats can win if they have to sustain long drives against this Indy defense. It's extremely stout."

Heh...so we have statistically significantly better (by this poll) QB, running game, pass defense, run defense, and coaching. So why the split on who wins, eh?

(yeah, I know - wide recievers and special teams - overrated!)
