They keep winning and winning . . .The Colts are now 12-0 and are looking like they could possibly join the '72 Dolphins and become the second team to go through the season undefeated. If they are going to do it, they'll have to earn it. This weekend, they play at Jacksonville. The Jaguars may want to honor their fellow Floridians by taking the Colts out. The following week, they return home to play San Diego, which they shouldn't have a problem with. If they win these two, that puts them at 14-0, which matches the Dolphins record back when it was a 14 game season instead of 16. The following weekend, on Christmas Eve, comes the big test. They travel to Seattle to play the Seahawks who are 10-2 this year and the second best team in the league. That will be one fired up team to take them out. If the Colts survive and are 15-0, they return home to face my team, the sacrificial lambs known as the Arizona Cardinals. To lose that game would truly be a tragedy, although the Cardinals have been late-season spoilers before. But I don't see that happening. We'll see what happens, but if they can get by the Jags and Seahawks, then 16-0 is definitely a possibility.It's been fun watching this team.
It's taken a while, 20 years to be exact, but Indianapolis finally may be on the verge of a national championship. And to think, that back in 1998, they had a choice. Draft Ryan Leaf or Peyton Manning? Draft Ricky Williams or Edgerin James? I would say they chose wisely.
