Found this on a Colts board...thought it was interesting:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
"It's funny....according to Pats fans , we haven't played anybody , therefor they are better than the Colts. FTR- Pats have beaten Buffalo at home, Balt at home, Atlanta at home, Tenn at home and Tampa in London and lost to a solid Denver team and average Jets team.
While i agree , the Colts need to be tested more(Arizona seems to be very good team and we crushed them on their field in primetime) ,there is no way based on the Pats schedule that they have any room to talk about not beating anybody. Not to mention, they haven't won on the road yet.
Sometimes it makes you wonder if fans ever think about their own team before discrediting other teams. I know all teams fans do it, but for some crazy reason i thought Pats fans were smarter than that. Really , we are not talking Jags fans here or are we........................................
Teams records The Colts beat 11-26 -............ 423 winning %
Teams records the Pats beat 10-22 -.......... 454 winning %:"
Personally- both team (Colts and Pats) are so good on the road that I don't think the Home V. Road games to date make much difference. I suppose it IS nice that 4 of the 6 wins for the Colts have been road wins...but in the end, I'm not so sure it matters.
We do have a difficult stretch coming up (at least it appears) with Houston/Pats/Ravens/Houston....mix in Denver and Jets toward the end of year, and the back half of the schedule is certainly more of a challenge. Good thing they are off to such a terrific start. Hope teams like Denver, Pitt, and the Pats keep close, so that the Colts are forced to play week 15 and 16. Will be interesting (if it comes to a decision) how Caldwell will handle the last game of year in Buffalo.
