Another Undefeated Season (thus far) for the Colts

Like they say, it's deja vu all over again. This season the Colts are sitting undefeated at 9-0, so the talk again turns to, "can they do it?"

Last season, they teased us at 13-0 before losing at San Diego and then dropping another game before dropping out of the playoffs. So, which is better, go ahead and lose now and get it out your system or go for the undefeated season. Hey, you gotta root for the 16-0. They still have their work cut out for them. Fortunately, their two toughest games are at home, between Philadelphia and Cincinnati (and those two teams are struggling). Their road games are against Dallas, Tennessee, Jacksonville, and Houston. Those should be easy games, but for each of those teams, they will be gunning for the Colts because their seasons are gone, so this would give them a chance to redeem themselves.

If the Colts are 15-0, then guess who they end against? Yep, they play at home against the Dophins on New Year's Eve. So, they could go for history by playing the last team to go undefeated. That could be quite the game.

Undefeated or not, it'll all be for naught if Peyton Manning can't get the Colts to the Super Bowl this year. We've seen what they can do in the regular season, but it's time to take it to that next level.
