Colts Receivers better than Ours?

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; They are two different issues. There is no question the Colts have the better offensive unit, but that doesn't mean they will win the game, because as the local and national media has said, the Colts are defenseless without Freeney ...

I understanding that razzing opposing teams' message boards is well and good, but willy nilly opinions are silly willy.

The Saints, not the Colts have the better offensive unit. Saints have 4 big time recievers to the Colts' 2 1/2 (Collie is not that wonderful). The Saints have 3 RB's to the Colts' 1. Let's call the TE position a wash.

Besides that, the number 1 offense in the NFL this season is New orleans. The Colts aren't even number 2. The Colts have the 25th rushing O where the Saints led the league for much of the year until PT got hurt (who is fully healthy again).

The Saints can run well and extend drives.

Re: Colts Receivers better than Ours?

If Collie is not that wonderful how did he do what he did against the No. 1 ranked D in all of football? How many of your big time WR had 100 catches this season? The Colts have 2 good RB and 1 who can pound it down low (Addai/Brown/Hart) and the TE is a wash? Your kidding right, there is no TE in the game that can do what Clark can do. The Saints didn't play the quality of teams the colts did, thus the rankings are a big misleading.[

Really? Well, how about this to make you question it? The Saints and Colts played 6 common opponents this year; the Dolphins, Jets, Cardinals, Rams, Pats, and Bills. We'll take out the Bills as I know you will say you guys didn't try. So between the remaining 5 teams, if you look at average of yards gained and points scored it boils down to this:

Colts 399.5 ypg 30.0 ppg
Saints 415 ypg 33.8 ppg

So, explain to me how there is no question that the Colts have the better offense. I'm not saying the Saints ARE better. I'm just saying that there is no question your statement is stupid.
