It's easy, and only takes a few moments.With all their issues and recent poor play, does anyone still think that the Colts are the biggest obstacle in the way of the Patriots on their quest for a fourth Super Bowl ring? I am more worried about Dallas and maybe GreenBay.
I think the Colts game was closer than it needed to be. Belichick slowed the game down in the first half and that did not appear to work.Colts were a lot tougher then Dallas. Did you watch the games?
Everyone thinks a Colts rematch is inevitable. I am not to sure. I can see them getting knocked out in the first round.I know that the phrase "the only people that can beat the Patriots are themselves" has been overused by the fickle media, but I honestly agree. The storyline of our record has been a series of blowouts disrupted by a game the refs clearly wanted the Colts to win. I still stand by my outrage over that game. If it's called fairly, in January, at Gillette? The Colts might as well be the Giants IMHO.

I agree. If they don't improve, we may be playing Pit or Jax in the AFCCG.Browns

In all seriousness, on a level playing field the Colts don't scare me at all. In fact, I don't see them getting out of the first round of the playoffs with the team they have on the field right now.

I was amazed how well the Pats have played despite the injury issues in the past. The Colts are using it as a crutch.Agree 100% People point to the Colts injuries as an excuse for why they might not compete. The Pats have built an organization around versatiliy, team, and depth. The Colts have built a team that performs well under pristine conditions and cannot function under adversity. We had more injuries last year than they have this year by far and yet we almost went to the SB and they'll be truly lucky to win a playoff game.
If the Colts get fully healthy (guess they can't b/c of Freeney, but still) they are 1B to our 1A. I don't understand how folks are writing the Colts off. We've destroyed every team except them, coincidence? Doubtful.
Until we beat them in the playoffs and or win the championship, they are as much the team to beat as we are, no matter whether we are more talented on paper or not.
