Keep hearing how Indy shut down the run in the playoffs...

Yes, I will give the Saints all the credit in the world. They have the firepower to make the best defenses look foolish. I just get frustrated by not hearing any credit for what this Indianapolis D has become.

I only hear arguments that the Saints D is better. IMO its obvious that your D is better at creating turnovers, the #s show that, but the more well rounded D is the Colts.

Bottom line, I can't say as a football fan one team has an obvious advantage. Ill give my dues, #1 offense and a dangerous, turnover machine D.

Can a Saints fan give any credit to Indy? I haven't found many.

You are in the SB, and won it 4 years ago. Seriously man- we all know you have a good team. I am discussing what I think could be a difference in the game. It is the one thing I know could help us cause it provides us two dimensions to our offense. This is what I think could help us win- that is all.

Hey indybowl, check out colts.com if you want to hear who has a better D

No Saints fan is going to say good things about the Colts, why should they? They want to kick our asses. And I don't blame them, but I have always liked the Saints in the NFC. Today I will not like the Saints at all!

As far as shutting down the run, the Colts held the Ravens 50 yards below their average and the Jets 85 below their average.

First, we are defensive because we sick of hearing how we are lucky to be here, so we spend our time defending our GREAT record and NUMBER 1 offense.

Second, what superlatives are left for Payton and Wayne, etc. ? No reason to state the obvious
