Talking heads make me mad.

When did the 09 Colts become the best team in the decade?
Sure, they went 14-0 and rested their players. Did they dominate for that 14-0 stretch? No, I don't think so. They were doubted all year long. Then they beat a #6 and #5 seed in the play-offs. Without key turnovers, the Ravens could have been in that game and the Shonn Green injury killed the Jets.

The Saints started out 13-0. Winning in many ways with many key injuries along the way. We had a bad game in Dallas and let one get away from us in Tampa. Then the Viking choke and we rested. We "Backed-in" to the #1 seed and dominate the Cardinals in every phase of the game. A team that just beat the Packars, considered "the hottest team in the NFC" by many people. Then, even though the Viking's D shut us down a little in the second Half and their O ran up 500 yards on us, we beat them in overtime. Why? We took the ball away from them 5 times.

The Colts play-off path : Flacco, Sanchez.
The Saints play-off path: Warner(FHOF), Favre(FHOF) Both of them might retire after facing the Saints.

Why aren't these team evenly matched?
