I am unsure whom on the Colts side would think the Saints have no chance. The saints earned their appearance and have a very powerful offense. The big advantage I give my colts is experience. Alot will happen over the next two weeks and it can put a huge strain on players/coaches and such.

I just hope for no rain this time in miami unlike our last SB visit.

I was really disappointed by our offense last night. We've got to come out smoking hot and aggressive against the Colts and make the big plays that got us to this point (minus the Vikes game), or else we will have come this far for nothing. The Colts are going to be very tough to beat.

Who is "they"? Why are you putting words into the mouths of every colts fan? Geez, does this crap have to start already? Are you that insecure?

I'm sure most colts fan would agree that the saints are a great team, and deserve to be in the super bowl. Please stop generalizing as if no one in the world gives you a chance. But I should know better and realize that there is always at least 1 duffus on every message board overreacts to what 1 or 2 people say.

Have you ever played football?

We were playing a fairly elite defensive team. I think we did well considering we are going to the super bowl. Try not to whine about your team when it wins. I am dissappointed in you as a fan. Howsabout them apples.

I think the Saints stack up against the Dolts very well. Let the Dolts fans think what they want, but I assure you the TEAM isn't taking us lightly.

We beat EVERY AFC TEAM they put in from of us this year. Period.

Re: Colts fans licking chops...
 

And the Colts beat every NFC team put in front of us also. They also won every game they were trying to win against anyone from any conference.

This game isn't going to be won on a message board with odd-ball stats and declarations. The teams that performs better on February 7th will take home the Lombardi.

Re: Colts fans licking chops...
 

Very true. It happens on the Colts board as well. One person will say something good about the opposition, or predict them to win, and about a dozen people will be ultra-offended about it.

Re: Colts fans licking chops...
 

As a Colts fan, I'm certainly not licking my chops over this game as a "gimmie" for the boys in blue. Quite the opposite, I'm sweating it. Sure, one could say there were some breaks along the way, but the Saints played their backsides off last night and came up big when they needed to. They overcame adversity and all the pressure of being a 1 seed underdog media also ran to the Favre show (thanks for ending that, by the way!).

I've been very impressed with the way the Saints have played this season, they are going to be a tough team to match up with, as are the Colts. This has the ear marks of a great game, and I can't wait for kickoff.

Best of luck, should be a lot of fun for us fans!

Duffus? Its 2010 man.. Who uses "duffus" as an insult? Wow, talking about overeacting... Pot calling the kettle black I see... Anyway, maybe I should have said "SOME" of the Colts fans from a Colts forum think that we have no chance in hell.. Does that sound better? As I look over my post.. I not once called anyone a name expecially something so childish and LAME as "duffus"... LOL.. Get your panties out of your butt and calm down.. Oh, Welcome to BLACKANDGOLD.COM.... :)

Re: Colts fans licking chops...
 

I think the reason for the confidence is because the Colts just beat the number 1 and number 2 defense to get to this point, while the Saints are ranked 26. No doubt those rankings aren't everything, the Saints defense does what it has to do to win games. I have no doubt in my mind that the Colts will score plenty of points on the Saints, but the Saints have also proven they can score on any defense. The Colts D is fast and matches up well with the Saints, but the amount of looks and weapons New Orleans has will probably be too much for the Colts to hold them to under 24 or so. I expect both teams to be scoring in the 30s, and I expect it to go down to the wire. In a 7 games series I would have more confidence in the Colts but if the Saints can get to Manning and force some turnovers it will be a tough game for the Colts to win.

Re: Colts fans licking chops...
 

I'm ready. They havent seen a defense or offense like ours all season
