The Patriots will win and otherwise beat up the Colts tomorrow and soften them up for us to kill later on should the need arise. Peyton's poor wheels won't suffice tomorrow. The Saints will lose too. Luck can't last forever! Hopefully, Cleveland will beat the Ravens, but even if they don't, I just hope they beat up the Ravens so as to keep them from having any dreams about defeating us, our World Champions, the Pittsburg Steelers.
