Being completely honest I really don't think there has been any dominant teams. The NFC hasn't been that good either. Seattle, Green Bay, Dallas, and Philly were all dud's. In the AFC the Colts, yes my Colts were disappointing along with teams like the Ravens and Chargers. Carolina did go 15-1 but they squeaked by several games. Colts as Average as they were took them to OT. Carolina is very beatable, the Cards to me weren't as good as last years Colts even, they got a lot of love for some reason heading into the game vs Carolina?? I have nailed every single pick in these Playoffs except 1 game. I am 9-1 so far. My only miss was picking KC over the Pats. Pretty dumb pick on my part because Tom never loses in Foxboro but I really didn't think they would repeat and lose somewhere down the line. I have got all the other games right. Too bad I couldn't of been in Vegas the last 2 weeks.


The Panthers won is quite impressive, dominating fashion this season. I don't see them as much different than the Seahawks of a couple years back. Cam's the same kind of QB as Russell Wilson and this is the big stage where dominant teams really dominate. While it is true that they let teams back in games in the second half, that happened when they built 30+ point leads. Don't expect that to happen in the Super Bowl.

Panthers 34, Broncos 13

Not trying to take anything away from Carolina but I don't think they are as good as the Seahawks were in 2013. Seahawks had a much better Secondary/just a better Defense period and had Lynch running the ball. They even had better WR's than what Carolina has and Wilson/Cam is a wash. Carolina is Very Good but that Seahawks team was better, JMO.

Carolina a 5.5 point favorite as of now. I figured it would be more actually with the way they have played like around 7.

Denver's defense will keep it at 5 or lower.

I am staying away from it because although Carolina is better on paper Peyton could have one of those games where he doesn't Turn it over and Denver's Defense could play a perfect game like they did against Tom.

Tate, Peyton is my all-time favorite player and I think he is the best Indianapolis Colt ever. I think Andrew is Good, borderline Very Good but he has a ways to go before he gets on Peyton's level. He may never reach that level but he is still Good, got us to a Title Game in 3 years and has won a lot of games. I am happy with Andrew but there is only one Peyton. Andrew is already a Top 10 Indianapolis Colt of all-time just based on his 4 years of play = wins, 1 Title Game appearance, and being 1 of only 11 QB's to throw for 40 TD's or more in a season. If I was ranking best Indianapolis Colts ever I would probably go:
1. Peyton
2. Marvin Harrison
3. Reggie Wayne
4. Eric Dickerson - Wasn't here long but had 3 Great years in Indy and the impact he had on the franchise was tremendous. He was the guy that put us on the map in 1987 before Peyton. Irsay showed the fans he wanted to win when he traded for the Dick!
5. Bob Sanders - We don't win the SB in 2006 without him. He won DPOY in 2007 as well.
6. Dwight Freeney
7. Jeff Saturday - Peyton's Center throughout his career.
8. Robert Mathis
9. Marshall Faulk - Would be higher but was injured a lot while playing here. Having said that when he was healthy he was Great!
10. I think Andrew falls here = Top 10. Will he be Great, who knows but he is Good to Very Good already.
10B. Jim Harbaugh - His impact in 1995 was priceless. Colts should've been in the SB that season. REFS screwed us at Pitt.
-Not listing Edge James is shameful on my part considering he is the Indianapolis Colts all-time leading rusher with over 9000 Yards but man we have had so many Great players over 32 years here in Indy I had to leave someone off, I even went 10B with Harbaugh :waaaaa: Edge had to mentioned though, I don't think he was as Great as Dickerson or Faulk but he was Very Good. I think players like Andrew and Harbaugh have had a greater impact on the franchise, same for Faulk. The year we let Edge go which was after 2005, we won the SB in 2006 without him. That shows me Edge was more of a system type RB feeding off of Peyton and a Great O.Line.

I just listed Indianapolis Colts, that has been my fandom. I didn't even include Baltimore Colts.

Calvin Johnson to retire per Adam Schefter. The Lions franchise chases off another great in his prime. What they did to Barry Sanders was sad. They never got him any help, then after giving them 10 Great years they wouldn't let him leave for another team to have a shot at a ring. What a putrid franchise!

Danny Granger, what could've been had he stayed healthy? He was on his way to being great but injuries derailed him. The first 4 you listed are all HOFame material. George has a long way to go but if he has another 5 solid years and Indy can win something he will be there. Regarding Eric Dickerson, I agree he cant be short changed eventhough his best years were in LA. He meant a ton to the city of Indianapolis! Colts sucked until he arrived. His first season, we win the Division and make Playoffs!
