Indy and New Orleans Remain Lossless
Posted on Nov 16, 2009 under Uncategorized |
Going into this weekend, it looked like the New Orleans Saints or Indianapolis Colts would finally lose a game in the 10th week of the season. But surprisingly, both of these teams stayed undefeated this year, with Indianapolis winning a stunning victory against New England. What wasn’t so surprising is that the Saints won against the Rams, though the 5 point margin of victory was much less than had been anticipated. Are these two teams on their way to getting each other in a Super Bowl in February? Since they don’t play each other in the regular season, it’s possible that they could both be undefeated all the way. Recent history suggests, however, that undefeated teams aren’t as good in the playoffs as they would be expected to be. Maybe they put too much into remaining undefeated at the end of the year and don’t give their best players enough rest.
