This is just typical of what I have heard from the Colts camp and the media. I have heard it since the game ended and the entire off season.
“Their is no way the Saints are actually a better team than the Colts, as a unit. The Colts must have messed up or done something wrong.”

Problem is the Colts have little Depth at any position including WR, need 2 or 3 good RB’s in the back field, and their play calling is pretty uninspiring.
I don't know why anyone cannot see that the Colts are the team that has the “Super Bowl hangover” this year. The SB loss seams to have wrecked the Colts spirit. The Saints are having their best training camp ever, and are just fine. Our depth is just excellent this year.
Even Mudd sees it.

Love that fact we cant win a game unless the other team makes mistakes, or that we are not believed to be a physical team.
“Pat Yasinskas: Pretty aggressive for a first practice. But Payton's run the toughest camp in NFC South since I've been covering it. Don't see that changing. Gregg Williams' defense still going after loose balls.”
Saints: Are the Saints ready for a return to the “real’’ world?
Rightfully so, the Saints spent a lot of time this offseason celebrating their first Super Bowl title. Great for them and great for their fans. But all that’s about to end. Coach Sean Payton runs what I think is easily the toughest camp in the NFC South, and I don’t anticipate that changing. If anything, camp might be tougher this year.
If the Colts want to waste their time laying blame thats fine, we’ll be spending our time building a better team than last year same as the Pats.
Saints only care about having a better TC, and figuring out our 53 in the preseason right now. If they think our season was a fluke, well they will get a chance to prove that, but I seriously doubt they could beat us in their present state on mind.
I expect to see a noticeable improvement on august 10 and 12 vs the Patriots, on both sides of the ball, from what I have been following in both TC’s.
