1. New Orleans Saints (8-0) (Last week: 1). Maybe the Saints are just trying to keep things interesting by spotting double-digit leads to inferior opponents.
2. Indianapolis Colts (8-0) (Last week: 2). The toughest remaining test for an undefeated regular season comes on Sunday against the Patriots.
3. Pittsburgh Steelers (6-2) (Last week: 3). How in the hell did this team lose two games?
4. New England Patriots (6-2) (Last week: 4). Why are all the people who were writing this team off in September suddenly silent?
5. Minnesota Vikings (7-1) (Last week: 5). While watching the Packers lose in embarrassing fashion to the Bucs, Brett Favre might have again aggravated his groin injury.
6. Cincinnati Bengals (6-2) (Last week: 7). If Chad Ochocinco were really trying to bribe the officials, he wouldn't have used cash -- he would have gone with a bad check.
7. Dallas Cowboys (6-2) (Last week: 11). No matter what Tony Romo does the rest of the regular season, the pressure will be crippling when he plays his next playoff game.
8. Denver Broncos (6-2) (Last week: 6). Cinderella apparently slipped and fell on a McDonald's bag.
9. Arizona Cardinals (5-3) (Last week: 15). If the Cardinals are true to form, they'll now lose to the Seahawks, Rams, and Titans.
10. San Diego Chargers (5-3) (Last week: 17). This is the last team the Colts want to see in the playoffs.
11. Philadelphia Eagles (5-3) (Last week: 8). The Eagles might be throwing a red flag on talk of a new contract for Andy Reid.
12. Houston Texans (5-4) (Last week: 10). Owner Bob McNair will have a tough decision to make if the Texans barely miss the playoffs.
13. Baltimore Ravens (4-4) (Last week: 9). The guy who looks like Bert has been playing more and more like Ernie.
14. Atlanta Falcons (5-3) (Last week: 16). Raiders coach Tom Cable doesn't think Falcons coach Mike Smith did anything wrong during that sideline chat with DeAngelo Hall.
15. New York Giants (5-4) (Last week: 12). Between the decisions made this weekend by Tom Coughlin and Andy Reid, Jim Zorn is no longer the clearly dumbest head coach in the NFC East.
16. Green Bay Packers (4-4) (Last week: 13). At least the sudden hot seat will help keep Mike McCarthy warm during the November and December games at Lambeau Field.
17. Chicago Bears (4-4) (Last week: 14). At least the sudden hot seat will help keep Lovie Smith warm during the November and December games at Soldier Field.
18. Miami Dolphins (3-5) (Last week: 18). A week after the Dolphins found motivation in the yakking of the Jets, linebacker Joey Porter gave the Patriots motivation by yakking. Sounds about right.
19. New York Jets (4-4) (Last week: 19). We're surprised that coach Rex Ryan wasn't boasting about how the bye week would never be able to beat the Jets.
20. Jacksonville Jaguars (4-4) (Last week: 21). As crazy as it sounds (and it sounds extremely crazy), this team still has a chance to make it to the postseason.
21. San Francisco 49ers (3-5) (Last week: 20). With all the time he spends talking about making the playoffs, we wonder whether coach Mike Singletary realizes his team has lost four games in a row.
22. Carolina Panthers (3-5) (Last week: 22). A valiant effort, but moral victories don't keep head coaches from getting fired.
23. Buffalo Bills (3-5) (Last week: 23). Yeah, Mike Vick would solve all of this team's problems.
24. Seattle Seahawks (3-5) (Last week: 24). Should beating the Lions really count as a win in the standings?
25. Tennessee Titans (2-6) (Last week: 29). Jeff Fisher should be fired for keeping Vince Young on ice for so long.
26. Oakland Raiders (2-6) (Last week: 25). The psychological evaluation of coach Tom Cable will begin and end with the following question: "Tell me why in the hell you took this job?"
27. Kansas City Chiefs (1-7) (Last week: 26). Larry Johnson got what he wanted.
28. Washington Redskins (2-6) (Last week: 28). A 2-14 finish isn't out of the question.
29. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-7) (Last week: 32). It's a good thing the Bucs waited until Josh Freeman was ready. They might have lost their first seven games if they had rushed him into action.
30. St. Louis Rams (1-7) (Last week: 30). The Saints. Are coming.
31. Detroit Lions (1-7) (Last week: 27). Coming soon, the Browns and Lions will battle for the right to screw up the first overall pick in the draft.
32. Cleveland Browns (1-7) (Last week: 31). There's nothing like a quiet, uneventful bye week to help stabilize a horrible team.

This is the last team the Colts want to see in the playoffs.
You honestly think they'd rather face New England????
Between the decisions made this weekend by Tom Coughlin and Andy Reid, Jim Zorn is no longer the clearly dumbest head coach in the NFC East.
Does that make sense? Are you the dumbest contributor to PFT?
"We're surprised that coach Rex Ryan wasn't boasting about how the bye week would never be able to beat the Jets"
"You can't tell me that the Bye Week outplayed us!"
R. Ryan
"No matter what Tony Romo does the rest of the regular season, the pressure will be crippling when he plays his next playoff game. "
Mike, you should have learned to not worry about the future when you picked the Eagirls to beat the Cowboys two weeks in a row in your picks.
That makes you twice as wrong as you normally are, by the way. Romo's making better decisions under pressure than you are lately. Now let's talk about Andy Reid pissing all chances of winning away with bad game management yet again. Got any opinions on Wade Phillips out-coaching him?
5. Minnesota Vikings (7-1) (Last week: 5). While watching the Packers lose in embarrassing fashion to the Bucs, Brett Favre might have again aggravated his groin injury.
HAHAHHAHAH Nice post Florio.
Good job Mike, Cincinnati beat the Steelers already this year but are three spots below, brilliant. The job you did on the falcons is even more egregious, the Ravens are really better than the Falcons? Awfully hard to understand that ranking given Baltimore's record the last five games, lame Florio.
Pretty good list. Picks 9-15, and probably 9-19, are interchangeable. The Titans record needs to have them at about 25, but that is a team no one wants to play right now.
3. Pittsburgh Steelers (6-2) (Last week: 3). How in the hell did this team lose two games?
They said it on national television last night. Troy Polamalu. 4-0 with, 2-2 without.
29. Tampa Bay Buccaneers (1-7) (Last week: 32). It's a good thing the Bucs waited until Josh Freeman was ready. They might have lost their first seven games if they had rushed him into action.
Glad to see the Bucs arent at the bottom anymore. We are the best 1-7 team out there. Gotta take the positives when you can.
OK, I know it's not that easy to run, but why hasn't CAR run the Wildcat? Two excellent RB's (see: MIA, Brown and Williams), guy who can play the Patrick Cobbs role better (Steve Smith) and a huge offensive line.
And that goes double for TEN...
"Got any opinions on Wade Phillips out-coaching him? "
Wade Phillips couldn't call plays in Tecmo Bowl. Vox, you really should pull your head out of Jerry Jones' ass every once in a while.
Florio, would you mind throwing in some thoughts on why you put the teams in the order that you did? I know that is really far out there, but your knee slappers provide no insight into the game, and only further the vague notion that you are actually funny.
And aren't power rankings about which teams are moving up and down? How is Baltimore above Atlanta when they have lost 4 of their last 5? And who has Atlanta lost to? Only the Saints, Patriots and Dallas. Come on.
I've said it before, your connections within the league are unquestionable and your insight into contractual matters are very helpful. But, your insight into actually analyzing the game itself is sorely lacking. So, please stop. Leave that to people who know football.
Vox:
I don't know why you're acting like anything is different than it has been recently. Romo will continue to fail as the games get more an more important, and, as usual, the Eagles will get better and better the closer we get to December. Don't forget, Romo is 4-8 in December and 0-3 against the Eagles in December.
What will the Steelers do if their D doesn't score? The Vikings should have beat them, and someone will in the playoffs.
The 49ers are really under rated on this list. They lost a few games by a touchdown or less.
Vikings fan here...
I think the top are in good order except I would swicth the Eagles and Chargers, putting the Eagles in the top 10. I would much rather play the Chargers than the Eagles.
You could argue that the Colts have not played anyone yet...and I think you'd be right. Still, they are 8-0...nothing to sneeze at in the NFL.
All ranking aside (because they don't translate into anything on the field), I think a match-up between New Orleans and Minnesota in late January will determine this year's SB winner. Not saying it will be the Vikings, but whichever team is victorious in that, which will be an, epic battle will ride that win to the SB and emerge as champions.
"It's a good thing the Bucs waited until Josh Freeman was ready. They might have lost their first seven games if they had rushed him into action."
Yeah, Matthew Stafford is really reaping the benefits of playing from Day 1. NOT!
Florio - does it bother you that you currently rank your (insane, bizarre, schnapps-induced?) pick for the Super Bowl, the Redskins, number 28?
New England at 4? Once again, the media rides on the jock of these overrated chumps.
They STILL haven't beaten any team that is any good (the Falcons are the closest and they are overrated as well).
What a JOKE these power rankings are.
The Dolts at #2? Who have they played? How close have the games been? That is not "power", it's all been about luck with them.
Tell me something Florio, will you drop them down to the 7th or 8th position where they belong after the Patriots destroy them by more than 20 points on Sunday night?
How did the Steelers lose two games?
But for either a fumble or an interception (count either as a 14 point swing, a 28 point swing counting both), the Steelers would have lost a third game.
With Polamalu.
Without Winfield.
The Vikes dominated the Steelers (e.g., ToP: 37/23; FD 21/14; YP 297/152; TY 386/258.)
That said, the Vikings were lucky they won against Baltimore.
5. Minnesota Vikings (7-1) (Last week: 5). While watching the Packers lose in embarrassing fashion to the Bucs, Brett Favre might have again aggravated his groin injury.
************************************************************************
Damn that's funny! And I'm a Packer fan!
No argument with the rankings... the Saints and Colts should be ranked there as all they have done is beat the teams they have played... regardless of their schedule.
Anyone thinking the Patriots are overrated is just a stooopid hater, and will get a rude awakening Sunday night. But it's ok haters, you can some back here next week and moan about Bob Sanders being out, just like the Fins fans are griping about officiating this week.
And Florio - the Favre joke was priceless. Nicely done.
Hey there Mr Florio!
Knowing how much you love to hate the Saints and all, I bet it pains you to have to list them as the most powerful team in the league, huh?
Your comment about them "spotting points" to "inferior opponents", while I guess you are trying to be cutesy or something, shows just how ill-informed you are about the divisional play that the NFC South has become known for ever since the re-alignment of this league.
The Saints will win the Super Bowl this season if only to spite your hatred of them alone!
@rydendonkeys - "What will the Steelers do if their D doesn't score? The Vikings should have beat them, and someone will in the playoffs. " ----
Ummm yeah, how'd that work out last year.
Don't be sad donkey fan, your team has overachieved tremendously they will get better, but don't kid yourself, they aren't a contender this year.
@DuluthFan
I agree with you.
@DuluthFan
I agree with you.
Len Dawson - I agree, we aren't contenders without a better offense. But the season is only halfway over. Things can change alot. I doubt they will, but they could.
As for your Camaro in the front yard on blocks, maybe if you cut that mullet you could get a jobby job and afford to watch the Chiefs get spanked in HD at the local sports bar where the women chew tobacco and the men cry over morons that don't wear seat belts on icy highways.
jking
But not really.
CHIEFS SUCK!
RydenDonkey's.....
It's always a luxury to have the defense come up with a big play for you like Ty Carter did for us last night. But you did watch the 2nd half of that game didn't you? We beat you by 18...not 7. That return was just the beginning of a beatdown. And I believe this is the 2nd post you claim someone will beat us in the playoffs. Having seen what happened last night I would love to play the Broncos again, but having been exposed by two superior AFC North teams the only reason you even have a chance at making the playoffs is b/c your division sucks. The second you play a decent team in the post season it's over for you. And we'll just see what happens to Pittsburgh in the playoffs. People have such short memories (no...not last years playoffs, but when we beat Cinci, Denver, Indy to go to the SB).
Vox's Mom - I agree, our offense was overmatched by your D last night. But the Vikings were not, and the Patriots, Colts, and the Bengals won't be either.
Don't count on those defensive touchdowns, they won't be there for 3 straight weeks in the playoffs.
I'm not saying we are better than the Steelers by any means, we are not. That is obvious. Big Ben is an elite QB, Orton is less than good.
Our running game is a joke.
I liked the "smoke and mirrors" comment. That is our offense in a nutshell over the first half of the season.

someone forgot to read their NFL history lessons.
Colts can't beat the Chargers in the playoff's, but they seem to have been beating the Patriots in i think 4 out of their last 5 contests.
Bump the Pats down to somewhere between 7 and 10 and you're in there thick, Florio.
And since we are at the halfway point of the season...
Super Bowl Prediction
Minnesota 28
Pittsburgh 14
Jared Allen's 1st quarter vicious "ball punch in a pile" (trumps the "immaculate reception") causes Roethlisberger to miss the game...as it is revealed after the game that Ben's accuser was Allen's brother's sister's uncle's cousin.
Mike McCarthy is not on the "hot seat". As long as Ted Thompson is the GM and Brett Favre is active in the NFL, they will never split. Ted and Mike are joined at the hip like no other GM/coach because of theMC Favre situation.
The only way Mike is gone is if Ted is gone, Ted would not fire Mike and the assistants will once again have to take the fall for McCarthy's inability to coach a winning team. (13-3 was Brett not Mike)
Hey VoxVeritas.....right on bout Florio suckin wind on Cowboys prediction and Reid being out coached sun night at HOME.....and the other dipwad Cowboy hater crybabys.....wha wha wha
3. Pittsburgh Steelers (6-2) (Last week: 3). How in the hell did this team lose two games
I ask myself the same thing after the way they played last night. Looks like they are getting it back together and looking to make a good run.
GO STEELERS.
How did the Steelers lose 2 games? Troy Polamalu was out and he is the ONE player can can effect the outcome of games.
You can't tell me that Polamalu wouldn't have made a play or 2 that changed 2-3 drives for CHI and CIN. Ironically, all the TDs that CHI and CIn scored were to the WR covered by Troy's replacement.
We're now seeing what a healthy Troy does for the defense. 3 points Denver? Really? At home? With 3 D starters out for Pittsburgh?
Bring on the Bungals. They have a history of choking. When is the last time Cincy won a SB? Next week is the beginning of the end. And Carson can go back to making fun of OSU.
If the Colts get beat Sunday night, then I agree they should drop in the rankings. If they win Sunday night, I hope everyone will shut up about their 'soft' schedule.
Florio-the rankings are right on.
@rydendonkeys "What will the Steelers do if their D doesn't score? The Vikings should have beat them, and someone will in the playoffs. "
Thats some in depth analysis there. Steelers won the game get over it.
Is it supposed to be a knock on the Steelers that they aren't as good with out Polamalu? No team would be, he's the best defensive player in the league.
lets see how much you ride the steelers jocks this sunday at around 4. bengals will beat the steelers, again, and be one win over the browns away from a sweep of the afc north.
# rydendonkeys says: November 10, 2009 9:15 AM

*********************************************************
They had 3 offensive touchdowns last night. If their D didn't score, it would have been 21-10. If the Broncos' D didn't score, they would have only had 3 points. If Pitt's D didn't score those TD's against the Vikes, their offense would have. The Steeler's D shut down the Steelers O, not the Vikes.
Jeff Reed missed 2 field goals in the 4th quarter in the Bears game. He also missed one in the Bengals game.
Pittsburgh Steelers (6-2) (Last week: 3). How in the hell did this team lose two games?
OMG lets review 2 games they one,,,The Viking Via bull crap tripping foul that cost the Vikings the game and beating Highly overated Denver. PLEASEEEEEEEEEE spare me!!!
I would argue that Vikings should be ranked 3rd at least but definately ahead of the Ref favored Steelers every game!!
The Patsies are ranked way to high. They'll get their ass kicked by Indy. Steelers deserve kudos for last nights performance! Although the Donkeys ARE the most overrated team in the NFL right now. I told all you whin assing donkey fans this weeks ago! You just can't play with the big boys without a gift!! Enjoy it PITT faithful cuz your gonna be cryin in your terrible towel douch bags come Sunday! It should be a hell of a game.
4. New England Patriots (6-2) (Last week: 4). Why are all the people who were writing this team off in September suddenly silent?
////////////////////////////////////////////
now their back after beating 0-7 tampa, 0-6 titans, and the 3-4 doplhins?
As a COWBOYS fan (and extended team member lol):
I'm SICK of people overrating our win. Too many pats on the back, too much love. We beat a mediocre at best Eagles team at best without their star tailback (the most underrated back over the past 3 or 4 years or so in my opinon.) The same team that loss to the Raiders. Yes, it was an important win from a divisional standpoint and yes it was important for Romo's mental state but its over. So lets move on please. Im sick of hearing about the WEE-gles.
And what is all this talk about Wade being the best coach in the NFC now? I heard Randy Galloway and company throwing that around. Pah-lease.
Coughlin- 1 Superbowl
Andy Reid- Has at least been to the big one.
Wade Phillips-?????? NATHANIEL (which is slang for nothing slow pokes).
Until further notice Coughlin is still the best coach in the division. Rings are the standard, all else is on the curb with the rest of the trash. Not to mention he almost lost his job in the same season which made everyone puke their words including myself. I really did think the guy was a complete idiot. I will admit however that PLAXICO, not SHE-li Manning, put his team on his back in the postseason. Weve all seen what happened to Eli with no Plaxico. Hes pathetic now that he cant just throw it up in the air and watch guys make plays. He's not his brother who has made a living throwing to 5'10 guys through the eye of the needle.
@ Florio- Im almost getting choked up while typing this but I'm actually PROUD of you for a change. Giving us at least a tad bit of respect. I know it was hard for your seeing that you DEAD-skins arent doing so well and your buddy Zorn didnt even make my list above lol.
Now fellow Cowboys fans lets move on please and put Sunday night behind us. We have a lot of work to do. We really need to snatch these next 3, as we should, before the real challenges come. I'm tired of talking about the Eagles. This same thing happens to us every year.
"SOME PEOPLE SAY IM CRAZY AS A SNAKE"
Stairway -
"If Pitt's D didn't score those TD's against the Vikes, their offense would have. The Steeler's D shut down the Steelers O, not the Vikes".
That is a reach and a half. It's pretty obvious the Steelers Defense is way better with #43 out there, but the Broncos offense is sad.
Look at the int by Troy. They go double TE motion stretch left and it gets stopped. Then on 2nd and 11 they go Play Action double TE Motion as if that is going to fool anybody...lmfao
Such a joke. Like if you run it on first down, it is going to fool them with the same formation but Play Action on 2nd down. The Broncos Playcalling was PEE WEE League at best, I do that in my kids league with 8 year olds, not vs Dick freaking Lebeau and the Steeler D.
Well the Colts, Pats, Bengals, Vikes, Saints will not call plays scared because they are protecting a bad QB, they will be aggressive, and score vs the Steelers, and the pressure will be on the Steelers offense to put up points.
I don't see them winning 3 straight playoff games if they have to rely on Defensive TDs vs elite QBs.
That is my point.
Aren't power rankings supposed to be more
about the current state of a team, rather than
just a reminder of their overall record?
In the last three weekends the Chargers are
3-0 and looking stronger, the Broncos have
a bye and two blow-out losses.
Yet the Chargers are 2 spots weaker?
p.s. Yes, the Chargers would LOVE to see
the Colts again in the playoffs...Brady? Not so much!
I hope the Colts get the Chargers in the playoffs. It would be nice to get that monkey off their back. If the Chargers beat them again, then so be it.
rydendonkeys-so your trying to discredit the steelers wins because their defense scored TD's? The last time I checked they still counted. The Steelers already beat the Vikings, make a real argument if you think the Steeler are overrated, instead of coming up with hypothetical situation you think will happen in the playoffs. Fact is the Vikings and Broncos had some of best records in the NFL when the Steelers played them, and the Steelers won. They can't control who they play. Look at Bens numbers this year, don't try to say the only rely on defense to win because you sound dumb.
cbass - another steelers fan making excuses about losses and using the tired bungals routine. We hear all the time about how classy their organization is. But never a word about 95% of their fanbase having zero class.
The Bengals are coming to town better get the excuses ready.
Diesel - The Steelers barely won at home,because of defensive touchdowns vs a QB that holds onto the ball and takes alot of chances, and the ball was tipped on Chester Taylors hands at that.
Manning, Brady, Palmer will not make those mistakes in 3 straight games, and I discount home field anyway, but for what it is worth they more than likely will be on the road in the playoffs.
After the Bengals game this week the Steelers have a cupcake ride into the playoffs, but this game vs Cincy is huge for them to earn a bye, which is obviously huge.
Of course defensive touchdowns count, no one is saying they don't, but defenses that score touchdowns are not something to be relied upon in the playoffs. Even though the Steelers for a solid 5 years have shown a great knack of scoring them, don't count on it in January.
I don't think the Steelers are overrated, I would put them right now at #3-5 too. I'm just saying, vs elite QBs, you will lose if you have to rely on Defensive TDs.
Maybe you can rely upon them though, they seem to come through vs the Ravens in the AFC Champ and of course vs the Cards in the SB.
If Brady was a Bronco last night, we would have won, and that is a fact.
rydendonkeys , What does any of that have to do with the fact that the Steelers still scored 21 points on offense against one of the top ranked defenses in the league? You don't think they could do that to the Colts, Pats, or Bengals D? Their defenses are a lot less stubborn than the Broncos.
They would absolutely rather see New England. The Chargers have kicked our tails the last few meetings. San Diego may suck, but they show up for the Colts.
Stairway27 - our defense was wore out by then. You could see they knew the game was over in the 4th quarter. I was impressed with the Steeler offense in the 2nd half, no doubt. And I am a fan of Big Ben, how can you not be? But how will they react in a game where the offense is being matched, where they know they need to score. Last night they were relaxed, in the mush huddle, with full confidence thier defense would shut down the Broncos anemic "offense".
Remember, the Steelers did give the ball away twice when the game was still being decided as well.
And STEELER FANS... READ THIS
READ THIS STEELER FANS!!!!!
You are all overconfident coming off the SB Win vs a 9-7 team, in a playoff run in which Brady was out, the Chargers knocked off Manning, and in which you beat a ROOKIE QB in the AFC CHAMPIONSHIP!!!!!!!
"But for either a fumble or an interception (count either as a 14 point swing, a 28 point swing counting both), the Steelers would have lost a third game."
And but for scoring more points than the other teams they would have lost all eight.
"If Brady was a Bronco last night, we would have won, and that is a fact."
And if a frog had wings it wouldn't bump its ass so much.
Can you just leave Cleveland off the list. They will eventually fall off anyway. Last NFL title 1964 and I have been a fan the whole time, at least I saw them for on good year. I feel sorry for anyone that is too young and a fan of the Browns. Wait until next year! Right.
The Redskins should be ranked 32rd. If my life depended on some NFL team winning, I'd pray they would be playing the Redskins. Zorn would be below .500 in Division III.
Love the Patriot haters. Over rated? The Patriots are in the top three offense and defense. Their opponents have a higher winning record than the opponents of the Colts, and yet the Pats are over rated and the Colts aren't?
I guess we will see this weekend. Of course, if the Pats win, the excuses will come out.
Anyone thinking the Patriots are overrated is just a stooopid hater, and will get a rude awakening Sunday night.
Gotta love the reasoning behind your logic. You must be an attorney or something.
In following your logic, I suppose you can lump me in with the "stooopid (extra o's added for emphasis) haters."
As nflqb says, defeating the Titans, Bucs and Dolphins is hardly impressive.
They are way too high on this list, and I'm thinking they won't get past Corky's Colts.
You said the only tough test Indy has this season will be NE. Ypu are correct, Indy is overated and has such an easy schedule, yet they barely win.
The Colts are not winning their games, the other teams are losing the games by mistakes and bad calls against them.
Indy is a second rate team and when they have to play a first rate team it will show.
Get your facts straight red_dog.
"Indy is overated and has such an easy schedule, yet they barely win. "
Here is the Colts record so far:
Jacksonville 14 to 12
Miami 27 to 23
Arizona 31 to 10
Seattle 34 to 17
Tennessee 31 to 9
St. Louis 42 to 6
San Francisco 18 to 14
Houston 20 to 17
By my count only four of those games were close, four were strong wins and most importantly the Colts WON THEM ALL!
Now let's look at the Patriots:
Bills 25 to 24 Pats win
Jets 16 to 9 Pats LOSE!
Falcons 26 to 10 Pats win
Ravens 27 to 21 Pats win
Broncos 20 to 17 Pats LOSE!
Titans 59 to 0 Pats win
Buccaneers 35 to 7 Pats win
Dolphins 27 to 17 Pats win
By my count, two close wins, four strong wins and two LOSSES! Come on, you barely beat the Bills and feel like you can give the Colts s@#t. Get real.
Here are the differences between the Colts and the Pats.
1) The Colts have found a way to win EVERY week and the Pats have not.
2) The Colts don't feel the need to run up the score to stroke their egos.
3) The Colts have players and coaches that are genuine leaders and play by the rules, unlike the cheatriots.
I'm thinking we'll find a way to win Sunday night too, even if it's close.
GO BLUE!
"Wade Phillips couldn't call plays in Tecmo Bowl."
So what? That's not prerequisite to being a head coach in the NFL. He sure seemed to do a good job Sunday night. Unlike Andy Reid.
"I don't know why you're acting like anything is different than it has been recently. "
So you're saying that the Eagirls won't win the Super Bowl again?
"Now fellow Cowboys fans lets move on please and put Sunday night behind us. We have a lot of work to do."
What position do you play?
