No bandwagon fan here, I was born and raised in new Orleans and been a Saints fan my entire life....even during "The paper bag years". As I stated in the other thread I played football with Peyton in high school.

I smell.....

The fact that you said the Colts suck, proves you're a bandwagoner or a fanboy. I hate the Pats, but I sure as hell don't go around saying they suck....I know better.

I never came into the Saints thread and said they sucked. I'm rooting for them all the way, as long as they're not playing us.

We both won Sunday. Good day.

I was referring to the following comments that colt fans (like yourself) made coming into the Saints thread..

That's awesome then if you did man. How was it? Peyton's come a long way since he's been with the Colts, that's for sure.

...Btw I can't be held responsible for what my fellow colts fans do.

Wow you still don't get it. They are arguably the best team this season. Saints and Colts are both 12-0. We are not talking about best team in the past few years. You keep thinking that. Also going by your logic then the Patriots are the best.

I think you're the one that doesn't get it. Going by what you think is my logic then the Steelers, Pats, and any other team that has recently won a SB is the best team. I'm not saying that the Saints' record is nothing to praise about (please ignore my earlier comment that the Saints suck- that was the fan side of me ).

Anyhow, I'm saying that just because the Saints are 12-0 this season (and they're not the only one), a lot of people are jumping on the wagon going oh Saints this and that. You'd be hard pressed to find a Saints thread on this forum in the past 4-5 years. Why? Because it's only when they're winning that the bandwagoners start to show. Back to my point, the only reason people think that Saints are the best team this season is because they've never done it before. It's like when slice bread was first invented. The Colts, on the other hand, have made it to the playoffs time and time again so people just write them off as a given. Thus they're discounting the Colts almost every single week.

If you look at the media, they never give the Colts enough credit for their wins. It's always "oh NE made mistakes and Bill made a bad call" or "Houston floundered and gave the game away." Despite their injuries they've found ways to win games. But I digress. I realize now that everyone has their opinion so I'm not going to waste my breath trying to convince them.

Agreed, the Colts never get enough credit. Who cares if they don't always blowout the competition and win by 20 or 30 point margins all the time? The fact is that they've worked with what they've had available and produced wins. I would say the fact that they've come from behind and won several times this season and won is pretty damn notable. But all the haters will be quick to say that they should have been good enough to not have had to comeback late in the game. I'm not a Colts fan, but I think its fair to recognize them for their outstanding season so far.

Colts and Pat's have always been 4th quarter teams. You can never count them out, Peyton can walk on water.

Ok, that I can't support. haha. Although, Peyton will probably go down as the NFL's greatest QB in history. Averaging 307 yards per game, with 4 games left, Manning is on track to destroy Marino's single season record.

I guess this is what I wanted to hear. Guess you really didn't mean they suck.

All I'm saying is that both teams are 12-0. Both teams has an argument of which team is better. I don't think it's that far fetched that people think the Saints are better.

Whoooooo 14-0 baby!!!! To be frank I didn't care much about that game since we've got things locked up but that was very entertaining. Nice to see the Colts get another win.

Hell yeah son!

Game was intense though.

I still don't want them to lose, even if it's 1 game.

Saints and Colts, Superbowl, undefeated.....

Hey. Being a Baltimore fan, I just wanted to thank you all. We now have moved into that number two wildcard with your win last night. We play 3 teams with losing records. If we win out we're in. Thanks again Colts!

You are very welcome! We will enjoy giving you a beat down after you take out the Patriots in the Wildcard round!

I'm kinda pissed at the Colts right now.....

Throwing away 2 games like that is bullshit. Now they've lost their momentum and I wouldn't be surprised if we didn't lose the first game. Great coaching strategy.

^ Come on man- it's been like 3 weeks so just let it go. I think what happened to NE's Wes Welker pretty much showed that Indy made the right call. Can you imagine that happening to Dallas Clark, Reggie or Peyton? People would be even more pissed then. I, along with like 70-80% of the people think that they made the right call. I mean why risk injuries when you don't have to.

PS- and like Bill Polian said- it was made clear that 16-0 was NOT their goal. So I really, really, really don't get why so many people were pissed off that they didn't go for it. I mean it's not like they said they were going to strive for history and then just gave up.

That's not the point, they lost any momentum they had going. Feeling undefeated, striving for a perfect season, etc.....now that is gone. Yes, there was nothing to gain from the last two games, but that's not the point.

They threw in the towel....

Tell that to the fans that went Jets game. And I almost flew up for that game, glad I didn't. I'm probably the biggest Colt's fan you'll ever meet, and I guarantee you I'm not in the minority here.
