Pats or Indy...Who ya Got???

Question

Hey Fellas,

New England Pats or Indy Colts...who do u think is going to win this sunday.

They both looks good...I am not able to makeup my mind on who is going to win.

what do u think...?

Answer 1

Patriots if they're Red Zone Defense can hold. (its the weak point that Bill Bellichick pointed out).

Also because Tom Brady is the best player in the NFL at the moment. I think that the Patriots will emerge the victor in this one.

(I have Tom Brady on my fantasy football XD)

Answer 2

The dome will be rockin! The noise will be unbearable and the defense of the Colts is rediculous. The only reason no one sees that is because our offense has been the shining star for so long. The Pats may be able to put up 25 points or so, which would be the most the Colts have allowed this season. The Colts can put up 34 to 38 in the dome if they have Harrison. Without him I feel that it will be about 28 to 31 points. The sad thing is that all Pats fans see what is happening to these teams they beat and thing it will continue. The sad fact of that is reality. You eventually hit a few teams that are ready to beat the unbeaten and will slow down in the end of the season because teams play harder to make the playoffs. Manning had a stretch of 5 games that scored 24 passing td's which Brady will never come close to. After that, Manning slowed it down with the running game. My answer is simple. Addai, Special Teams, and time of possesion is where this game lies. Since it is in Indy, I give the Colts a 7 point edge.

Answer 3

From the beginning of the year everybody has heard Patriots, Patriots, Patriots. And yes, they have done well, but against teams that aren't all that good except for the exception of Dallas. Another sideline to note is that San Diego was not playing well when they played New England and now they have really caught stride and are playing well.

These are two teams that are very methodical. Most likely the Patriots will get the early lead. The Patriots tend to play better in the first half. If the Colts get the early lead the game definitely should end up with the Colts winning. Once the Colts get in the driver's seat with an early lead they emerge with a win. However the Colts will most likely be down at half-time by a small amount and emerge with a plan to counteract New England.

This game is going to come down to the last drive of each team regarding who wins. Whoever wins is only going to win by about 3 points or so.

I like Indy in this game despite what the forecasters say. On close games you have to be able to create rushing touchdown drives and Indy is that best at that. Also Indy has allowed less points scored on them this season. One sports writer equated the current Colts team to the New England Super Bowl teams and the current Patriots team to the statistical Colts teams when Manning was the statistical leader in almost every quarterback category. I think that is a very correct assessment. But as I learned in those games, the great quarterback statistics don't win games. It's a methodical approach that wins games. And right now I think the Colts have a better methodical approach. Back then New England was more methodical and they won the games. Indianapolis utilized their approach last year and have beaten the Patriots the last three times. Two of those times being at New England.

New England is the best at the long pass right now. But they'd better not forget a few things about Indy if they want to win. Indy was the best at the long bomb pass for years and they can still pass it as good as ever. Not only that, but they they now have a very strong run and short pass game in addition to the long pass. New England's best strength is their long pass. But Indy's defense statisticaly is like first or second against the long pass. That means to utilize it halfway well, the Patriots are going to have to run the ball some to keep Indy from guarding so heavily against the long pass. This year New England hasn't been a very big rushing threat. If New England can't prove they can rush the ball well they will not escape Indy with a win.

I have to give Bellicheck some credit. Uncharacteristically complimenting Indy and calling them the best was a brilliant move on his part. If I was Bellicheck the first thing I'd want to do is get Indy overconfident and have them not play their best game. If I was Dungy, I'd be wanting to get my team fired up and say "How dare those sportscasters not give us any credit all season. Let's go out and show them who the best really is."

Answer 4

Probably the Pats since they are playing great on all cylinders now despite the cheating scandal and running up the score allegations. But the Colts are good too and have been swept under the radar by all the attention going to the Pats. The Colts have not been getting much attention and they have been winning games in a pretty convincing fashion also. They are the Super Bowl Champions but are being upstaged by an onfire and classless Pats team. The score may be something like Pats-40 Colts-38. I will be rooting for the Colts. It should be interesting to see what happens Sunday but I hope the Colts win!

Answer 5

i think that the pats will win for certain reasons
1 Randy moss can go into double and triple coverage and stil pull away. that being said it leaves Welker open in the midle and Stralworth open on the other side of the field.
2 the colts yeah they have been beating teams but they barley pulled out a win against the bills i believe in week 3.
3 The Patriots are out on a vendentta against the NFL and they are just going crazy on other defenses. Remeber the Skins were supposed to have a super defense and the Pats made them look like JV players. along with the Cowboys. Both teams were supposed to slow or stop them but that didnt happen.
4 The Pats dont forget. Brady and Co remeber the AFC championship from last year. They wont roll over when they are on defense this year and blow an 18 point lead.

that is why i think that they Pats will win. If the Pats start to go up on the Colts then they will keep an iron glove on them and go for the jugular and show that the Pats are going to destroy any team that gets in the way of the Pats and the Super Bowl this year.

Answer 6

Is everyone seriously on the Pats nuts? The Colts win this game! The Colts are whoopin their opponents almost as easily as the Pats. The Colts have a better RB and can match the receivers. They are very even teams, but the Colts are the defending champs and are at home. Colts win baby!

Answer 7

According to Stats, Colts have a good chance in over comming the Pats. But lets be serious, Brady is murdering teams. Im a huge boys fan but when Brady gets into his mind set they are all almost unstoppable. Even though, I am still going for the Colts in Overtime. By 6. Pats havent been there yet this season, so they wont know what to do....Hopefully...

Pats 26 - Colts 32

Answer 8

i hope indy wins. as far as analysis this game is a nightmare to try to figure out. both teams have about a hundred arguments as to why they should kill the other but in the end it may come down to who executes better because the talent is nearly identical. both teams have been just as dominant except for the fact that the colts arent running up the score on vanquished foes when the game is already effectively over like the low class pats have.

Answer 9

Pat's!!! People sit there and cry that Bill is running up the score etc. Maybe people haven't thought that Bill is keeping them in to prepare them for the Colts???
This way when the game goes into overtime, very likely with to great teams, the pat's are less likely to make mistakes seeing as they have been pushed all season long to perform.
Great planning on Bills part.

Answer 10

I'm taking the patriots.i still hate the colts since they moved from Baltimore and I'd never root for Peyton's team .pats by 14.

Answer 11

does not look as though they have plenty... It became a great pastime and the Pats are nevertheless 12-0 no remember how close the score, it became nevertheless a win. even with the undeniable fact that this is spectacular to verify all the different communities ultimately understanding they'd desire to step it up while they play the main suitable team of the year.
