Patriots might be the best football team EVAR.  I'll give them the nod.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Football_Outsiders


DVOA
DVOA is the acronym for Defense-adjusted Value Over Average. The original Football Outsiders statistic, it was created by Aaron Schatz, and has since seen several updates. The statistic measures the success of a given play, then compares it to the league-average level of success for that play given the situation at the time (score, time remaining, down and distance to go, location on the field, caliber of opponent, and so on). The system is applied to every play of the season, to provide DVOA rankings both for individual players and teams as a whole.

In all cases, a DVOA rating of 0% is equivalent to league-average performance. Positive DVOA numbers represent above-average performance by the offense and below-average performance by the defense, while negative numbers represent the opposite.

I like the Colts at home since they have a running game that may be able to keep the pats passing game off the field some.  And they have a younger/faster defense IMO.  Plus the Pats play in the worst division evar!

Not sure if I'm going that way on the pickem pool though. Cool

I'm going with the Pat's, though I don't really care one way or the other...I'll probably care later in the year when they are playing for the AFC championship.

Colts.  They're my second favorite team.  Besides that, I prefer Dungy over Billichik, and Manning over Brady.
