Colts 16-0 ? What Do You Think ?

**bigboydan** · 11-29-05, 10:17 AM

i think they will lose at some point in the season. history perty much tells us that really. i thought the 85 bears had the best chance of accomplishing this feat. and, they fell to the fish on that monday night game in miami.

I only voted for no because "No way in hell" wasn't a choice. Like Al Michaels said last night, 8-0 isn't halfway to going undefeated, 13-0 is.

They probably will. Who is gonna beat em really??? Their defensive team looked awesome and they have a double threat on offense. Bookmakers should contact Tanya Hardings people.

I agree, there is no way in hell they go undefeated. Teams like the Titans will treat their games against the Colts like their Superbowl. The media preasure alone will end up cracking this team.

I am going to go ahead and say yes. I know it's square thinking but this has been a square kind of year and what better way to top off a square year other than a 16-0 team.

Personally, I thought Jacksonville beat them would do it but now that's out of the question. Seattle has nothing to play for anymore but SD (they play them right???) may do it. Sorry no way tenn or Ariz do it.

The only thing is Dungy said he will rest his starters if they are 15-0 or even 14-0. My guess is this is just talk of Dungy trying to downplay this. Tony Dungy is probably the best coach to not win a super bowl and i really like him...very underrated...but he will be vilified if he doesn't give them a shot. it's obvious Indy can play the high scoring games (NE, CINC, Houston) and the low scoring games (Pitt, Jacksonville, Clev) I just don't see how they lose.

double B, i think either SD or Seattle could beat them. but, as you can see by the remainder of there schedual below. if niether one of those two teams beat them. they might have an extremely solid shot of accomplishing that record. because, now with leftwich being hurt. the jags blew there chances at taking them out. that would have been the only other team that could have possably done it.

Sun 12/4 Tennessee 1:00 pm
Sun 12/11 at Jacksonville 1:00 pm
Sun 12/18 San Diego 1:00 pm
Sat 12/24 at Seattle 4:15 pm
Sun 1/1 Arizona 1:00 pm

Only team that could have beat them was dominated by them last night. I think the Colts go 16-0 but Jacksonville, San Diego, and Seattle will give them a run for their money.

I feel the same way. Tenn, Jax, SD, Seattle, Arizona. I wish SD or the Seahawks would beat them but I don't see it happening.

Funny how they went 0-5 in preseason only to win their first 11 regular season games.

There's a reason they are getting almost 3-1 to go undefeated.

**moses millsap** · 11-29-05, 02:37 PM

Jax would have beat them if Byron didn't get injured, but they'll still drop one of their 5 remaining games.

**pats3peat** · 11-29-05, 04:52 PM

absolutely not

**imgv94** · 11-29-05, 11:31 PM

I think they have a good chance to go 16-0. The two games they will
not have an easy time with are San Diego and Seattle games. SD matches up
with Indy as good as anyone and Seattle actually does have something to play
for like home field advantage throughout the playoffs? Wow if they do
it will be a major accomplishment

**onlooker** · 11-30-05, 12:09 AM

I hope they do, so I can say I seen them go 16-0. I wasnt around when the Dolphins went undefeated in 1972. Would be something great to experience. It will be hard for them to do, and will they continue to start their top players down the stretch to try for it. Im sure the Superbowl ring is more important then a perfect season. I know it would be to me.

Who's laying those odds? I'll take that action.

The odds are against going 16-0, but it's doable. Personally, I'd lay closer to 2-1. The Seattle game is the stinker, because there might be nothing left for the Colts to play for at that point. Until then, as long as Denver stays at two losses, the Colts can't really afford to give any games away. Nobody wants to end up playing in Denver in January. That's strong motivation.

**Razz** · 02-05-07, 10:19 PM

I'm still amazed this poll was in favor of yes.

**rara51** · 02-05-07, 11:05 PM

NEVER!!!!

**hanco21** · 02-05-07, 11:28 PM

come on be realistic. Going into San Diego next year? hmm, I think not.

**hanco21** · 02-05-07, 11:33 PM

I will book that bet all day long?
