No one's going to agree with 1 and 2, but whatever.

I understand it....but the Patriots already beat the Colts in Indianapolis. How are you going to disrespect that? I like the boldness I really do but there comes a point when one team beats the other team in their house...that should bare some weight in the power rankings.

I also think Seattle is better than the Buccaneers.

[NoNonsenseCoach]

I agree 100%

First off we have to face facts and no one can disagree that David Garrard is a Pimp QB who steals other teams hoes. That being said if Jessica Simpson was stolen I'd insist that the Cowboys would be moved up due to Romo loss of erection and vicious intentions.

Now for less important matters. I like the Seahawks at 9, but I think they're sleepers. They could sneak up on some people this year in the post season.

Maybe they'll turn it on in the playoffs like they normally do, but as of RIGHT NOW the Colts are playing better than the Patriots (flying under the radar helps though).

You really think the Dolphins are number 29 though? That's my only beef.

[Walter]

The Dolphins have been playing tough recently. I think they beat the Bengals this weekend.

The Pats beat the Colts two months ago. This are different now. New England is getting sloppy.

[Matt McGuire]

New England is getting sloppy but they are still winning...last time I checked the Colts have 3 losses, is that not sloppy?

[Walter]

Tell me if the Colts made Kyle Boller or Adam Joshua look like Joe Montana or Jonny Unitas

[Matt McGuire]

The Colts made Phillip Rivers look like Montana does that count?

[NoNonsenseCoach]

The Pats beat a Colts team that was banged up. If absolutely nothing else think of the play where Anthony Gonzalez drops a TD on the first drive of the game when he was filling in for Marvin Harrison. The get 3 instead of 7 and what do you know, if they got those extra 4 points it would have been a tie game.

So forget the fact that Peyton had no LT to protect his blindside and he was getting pressured from there all day. Marvin Harrison would have at least caught that one TD.

I'm not making excuses for the Colts... I'm just saying the Colts then and the healthy Colts in the Playoffs are two different teams.

[Matt McGuire]

Yeah and the Pats did it and got screwed by the refs time and time again.

[Walter]

The Colts made Phillip Rivers look like Montana does that count?

LOL!!!!!!!!!

Matt....

Philip Rivers was 13-24, 104 yards, 2 INTs, 2 fumbles vs. the Colts.

[Matt McGuire]

Montana never had a bad game in his career?

Lol I assummed he had a bad game just to prove my point...you called my bluff damn ship the pot.

[Walter]

Haha nice.

[NoNonsenseCoach]

Montana never had a bad game in his career?

Lol That was a beautiful recovery.

Yeah and the Pats did it and got screwed by the refs time and time again.

Don't even complain about the officials in a Pats game to me. I'm still bitter about the tuck rule.

[gq4ever]

Walter, I can't beleive were are doing this again with New England. This is going to be my only point and I think it says it all. Who is the team to beat in the NFL right now? Answer is New England and if anyone say something else you have know idea what your talking about.

Now Jacksonville may be the team know one want to run into in the playoff but the team to beat is New England. So that being said, if your the team to beat then you are the best team bar none. That is that end of story.

[NoNonsenseCoach]

if your the team to beat then you are the best team bar none.

I actually don't agree with that. Just because the public perceives you as #1 doesn't mean you are.
