None of whom have a QB who can even begin to threaten the Seattle defense. They simply loaded the box, stopped the run and those teams couldn't do dick.

They still struggled mightily against the Rams, though.

Neither is Chicago, a declining Philly team, the redskins, and Indy

it's not "degenerate", it's putting money on your beliefs. beside, we don't have to bet money. unless you don't believe in what you're preaching.

The Colts are better than any team Seattle has faced in this 9-1 run and Dallas was up 42-0 on them in the 4th. They made Andrew Luck's arse quit.

The Colts aren't that good.

At the time they played, Arizona and Philly were both in position for division titles and #1 or #2 seed, respectively. And SF and STL are division rivals. Not an easy stretch by any means.

Okay so one good win and wins over cupcakes, still not a murderers row which was my point. And truthfully I think Seattle putting up almost 600 yards against arizonas D is more impressive personally

And they were starting Ryan Lindley and Mark Sanchez at quarterback.

Is there a playoff caliber team this year that wouldn't beat Arizona right now? I fully expect them to get beat by a couple scores in Carolina by a 7 win team next week.

But again, who among the playoff teams wouldn't beat Arizona right now? That team checked out in the second half when it was obvious they had no chance offensively to do anything.

I might take that bet too, but that's for a different thread.

if you think the Colts gave 100% at any point in that game then you're not watching the games closely. And using the logic team A > B > C is something beginners use to analyze the game.

Go back and look at the last 6-7 quarterbacks they have faced...

Dallas has 1 win over a playoff team in the past 10 weeks FWIW.

Don't prop up Dallas's run by ignoring their schedule, while at the same time dismissing Seattle's run because of their schedule. It's hypocritical. A win's a win in the NFL, and Seattle has more wins in their last 10 games than any other team.

and if anyone takes the Colts seriously they need to lay off the hard stuff.

what has been their marquee win this year?

a 27-0 skunk of Cincinnati at home when Cincy had plenty of guys on defense missing from its lineup?

was it the narrow win over Baltimore at home?

they played in a NFC-South kind of division and racked up 4 wins easily.

i wouldn't even be surprised if the Bengals finally get over their playoff hump when they play these bums.

Ya I also like how "since thanksgiving" is the qualifier, convenient since Dallas looked like complete dogshit on thanksgiving
