Re: OT: will the Colts go 16-0?
I don't think so, it's just not an easy thing to do, obviously. To not have one or two really bad games at least.
Baltimore away - just isn't easy no matter what. That team has too much pride.
Houston is a tough match up for the Colts and has been so close to beating them.
Tennesee started horrible, but is now playing pretty well. They are built to run the game and ball control, which is the way to beat the Colts.
I agree, Denver isn't as good as they started, still not a gimme.
At Jacksonville, I actually think this is a surprise loss. I think it goes to MJD and how when he gets going he's tough. I could see the Colts not getting the ball on offense and just a couple of mental errors and it's a loss. I think at Jacksonville is a loss, if not before.
Jets at home, not worried about an rookie QB and Freeney and Mathis after him. I also don't think the Jets are that good, just my opinion.
Buffalo, last game of the season. I'm thinking Buffalo is horrible in a year of horrible teams. Plus they are in disarray with coaching, etc. A good teams second string may beat them.
The thing I'm interested in seeing is what Caldwell will do, if it gets to a point that there isn't anything to play for. If the last game means nothing.
Overall, I'd say 13-3 or maybe 14-2 and HFA for the AFC playoffs. Either way, I see the AFC playoff road coming through Indy.
Sounds like an epic fail to lose 3 of your last 7, but again, it's the NFL. For some of these opposing teams, playing the Colts is their Superbowl.
