second best defense in the NFL, because how much points you give up is everything.
i think it's taken some weight off Peyton's shoulders.
anyway, i think the Saints offense is too much for the Colts defense, even being second best; i haven't seen them up again an elite team besides the Pats & they almost lost to them.
would be an amazing perfect Superbowl though.

The facts they've played a lot of bad offenses this year, but they have been a great second half defense all year. All I'm saying is that before yesterday all I saw was a 12-0 team with wins against a lot of average teams, tha had te rely on close comebacks and second haf adjustments to beat these average teams. Yesterday they played like the mid 90s Cowboys and the mid 90s Cowboys would eat the 2009 NFL alive.
The Colts defense is very similar to the Bills defense. It's a very safe deep zone team that takes away the long ball and big play for the most part and every so often they sneak in a blitz to throw you off. The Bills defense made Brees look very average. And if it was the Colts offense playing for the Bills it would have been a low out. The 27-7 score is deceiving. It was 10-7 Saints after 3 quarters, and after a lot of inept football by the Bills offense. And the FG came after a fumbled punt. Then the Bills feel apart in the 4th thanks to zero first downs. A cover 2 can work on the Saints, assuming they get past the Cards and Vikings.

We don't have to imagine. It happened in 07. And it was great.
