Lurking just beneath the surface

This is the year of the New England Patriot make no mistake about but I think the Colts deserve some love for the season they've had. Think about people left them for dead after Dwight Freeny got hurt but they continue to plug along the way they have for the last few years and I think that's just the way they like it. With all of the injuries they've had this season I think it would have been an accomplishment for them to finish 11-5 or 10-6 or something like that but if they beat the Titans next week the Colts will end their season 14-2 and there is no doubt in my mind that they are the second best team in football right now. If the Patriots weren't on the verge of making history then people would be talking about Tony Dungy for coach of the year and Peyton Manning would at least be considered for another MVP award. The Chargers have lots of talent but they still haven't proven themselves in the playoffs so they aren't the second most dangerous team going into the playoffs. That title belongs to the defending world champion Colts who are lurking just beneath the surface ready to strike at any time.
