Article:..Tony Dungy.."I will be shocked if the Colts lose to the Saints"

Tony Dungy is convinced his old team will win the Super Bowl on Sunday.

Dungy, who resigned as Colts coach after last season, said on Dan Patrick's radio show on Wednesday that he can't see the Saints upsetting the Colts in Sunday's Super Bowl.

"I would be absolutely shocked," Dungy said of the possibility of Indianapolis losing. "They haven't lost a game yet this year that they were trying to win."

The Colts went 14-2 in the regular season, with the two losses coming after lifting Peyton Manning and other key starters in Weeks 16 and 17.

Dungy is the second major NFL stakeholder to say he'd be shocked by the outcome of a playoff game this postseason. Vikings QB Brett Favre said before the team's divisional playoff win against Dallas that it would "be a shock" if Minnesota lost

If memory serves me correctly, Tony said there was "absolutely no way" the Saints would lose to Dallas, so...

And maybe it wasn't the Dallas game, but I distinctly remember him saying no way the Saints would lose a game that they ended up losing.

Hope he is wrong again!!

I like Coach Dungy, but I'd like to hear what he has to say after the Saints beat the Colts.

Well we do know where his allegiances reside.

Dungy looks shocked when the sun comes up.

Get ready to be shocked ..Dungy.

I would be shocked if Dungy thought the Saints will win, pretty much no-brainer.

What's he supposed to say? Yeah, the Saints are going to kick the snot out of his old team? He should keep the paramedics close in case his heart gives out or he actually goes into shock.

Why on earth did they expect him to say. He's not exactly objective now is he? The media kills me. Tony makes it sound like they're invincible. He forgets they had to come from behind like, what, 7 times this season. And please don't forget the Pats game. The colts are beatable, just like any other team in the NFL.

Coming from behind and finding ways to win are what good teams do. We do it many times ourselves. A win is a win no matter how it is achieved and if anything, a come from behind character win is more important for a team than a rout.

I expect Dungy will side with his former club, no shock there. But the game is played on the field, either team can produce a great effort and win it. We definitely have the ability to beat the Colts, we just have to produce it.

Go get it done boys!
