Perfection 2x?
People say it’s impossible, but we are here with
two 10-0 teams,
what are the odds of both of them going undefeated?
Let’s check the schedules
Indy
@ Texans. After the Texans have had their kicker
blow 2 games for them,
they might be shot, we’ll see if they can muster
the will to give Indy a game again.
Titans- The Titans have won 4 in a row, but they have to go to Indy, so likely the good times for Vince Young end here
Broncos- Falling apart at the seams, if the Colts are 12-0 going in, they’ll be 13-0 leaving
@ Jaguars- This could be tough, division road
game, they may have the division
and home field for the playoffs locked up, this
may be the one to do them in.
Jets- If they are 14-0, they should have no problems making it 15-0
@ Bills- If they are 15-0, the only question is if the Colts will want perfection or not, the Bills can’t stop them.
So pretty much Indy is 2 road division games away from 16-0 if things go to plan, how about the Saints?
Saints
Patriots- Clearly the Saints biggest game of the
year, this may well be the end
of the streak for them, but at least they get
the Pats in the dome.
@ Redskins- The Redskins have shown some fight as of late, but they are outclassed badly.
@ Falcons- Road divisional foe, if the Pats don’t get them, the Falcons might
Cowboys- Who knows with this totally unpredictable team, but the Saints get them at home, always a help.
Bucs- A gimme
@ Panthers- Panthers will most likely be out of
the playoff race, so the question will be if they play for pride
to stop a 15-0 Saints team, or if they just roll
over and die to bring forth the Cowher administration
(Or at least that’s what my Panther friend fan
is hoping for)
So the Saints have quite the mine field to get
through, and worse for them, while the Colts have
a bunch of 7-3 teams in 2nd behind them, the
Saints have a 9-1 Vikings team on their heels.
Thanks to the Vikings butter soft schedule the
Saints had best keep to winning if they want the
NFC Title game in their done and not the Viking’s
dome.
