The Patriots are a FAR better TEAM than the Colts, from the coach on down, IMO.

I disagree that they're far better. The Colts damn near beat them without their hall of fame Wide Reciever -- in fact, if they didn't get a bit conservative offensively (in my opinion) they might've beaten them. Colts defense was best, or close to, in the league in total scoring and they came out of the best division in football. The Patriots defense isn't near as good as their numbers indicate, and were made to look better by the fact that teams had to get one dimensional and ditch the run once the Pats' leads grew.
