As the NFL’s lone unbeaten team, the Indianapolis Colts will receive even more attention as more people are expecting to see how they approach their final two games of the regular season and to make it 16-0.
After last Thursday night’s 35-31 win over the Jacksonville Jaguars, the Colts had a long weekend of rest and relaxation, wearing back their NFL jerseys for practice till Monday. The New Orleans Saints’ loss to the Dallas Cowboys on Saturday night left the Colts to be the NFL’s only spotless team.
“Obviously, it’s an honor for our team to have an opportunity to stand alone at this point,” Coach Jim Caldwell said Monday, “but the fact of the matter is that it is a real task to maintain this position, as well. I think our guys are certainly up to that challenge.”
The Colts have been the third franchise who has reached 14-0 in the regular season, joining the Miami Dolphins who went on to 17-0 and won the Super Bowl, and the ’07 Patriots, who were 16-0, won two playoff games, then fell in the Super Bowl to the Giants.
