Ummm, they haven't lost yet?

Of the 2 of them, I think the Colts go further. Manning is in a class by himself, and 'playoff experience' does count for quite a bit when the time comes. I predict the Colts in the SB, but not the Saints.

But I would LOVE to see the Colts and Saints if they both stay undefeated. That would be one for the ages!

The Saints had the top passing attack in the league last year, but the number 26 or so rushing attack, and they didn't make the playoffs. This year, they have the number 3 passing attack in the league, and the number 5 rushing attack, and they are undefeated.

Just goes to show that unless you have Peyton Manning as QB, its best to have a balanced offense.

It's because Pierre Thomas and Mike Bell are way better than Reggie Bush, who has now settled in as a glorified slot receiver.

They didn't have the backfield to make it work. They had to rely on Brees 100%. Now it's more balanced.

Even the Colts offense is more balanced than it would seem at first glance.

I was gonna say "they haven't lost" but I guess that wasn't the answer you were looking for... LOL.

ELITE QB = ELITE TEAM. You put Manning, Brees or Brady on the Panthers and we are world beaters. We've found the best QB we've had so far by way of dumb luck, it's scary to think how long it might take us to get lucky again.

      If they lose the last three......

      By Joe Bear · Posted

      I’ve rarely ever been more sure of anything than losing out — but how can anyone say with a straight face “Bryce hasn’t improved, but Canales has and he’s masks his flaws”. You have to be so out of touch with reality to put one way above the other when discussing those two.

      Last night was the classic example of a visiting team just holding on through the wave of emotion a home team has at the start of a big time game. Bama’s first two kickoff returns really set them back as far as playcalling and allowed OU to dictate field position. The emotion of the home crowd fed into what OU was doing at that point, and it felt like Bama would not be able to overcome that.     Once the kickoff returner was told to fair catch every kick, the game shifted, as Bama wasn’t starting each drive inside their own 15. It was then that Bama was able to make some plays, outscoring OU 34-7 the rest of the way.  I think the last 3/4 of the game proves Bama was the better team. OU was just able to ride the initial wave of emotion to a big lead, but Bama held on just enough.  However, had OU blocked the punt on Bama’s second drive and scored a TD (vice a FG on the ensuing drive), things likely would have been different.  Anyway, Roll Tide!

      Inappropriate relationship with a team staffer, followed up with some stalking behavior, and ultimately a felony home invasion charge from a visit at her apartment that culminated in him threatening her life and his as well.
