I said the best way to compare which team is better (unless they actually played each other) is to see how they played against a common opponent. HOWEVER, if one played them at home, the other on the road, or it was at different times of the year, or if weather conditions were bad for 1 but not the other, of if one team had hurt players for one of the games, etc.. then it wouldn't be a fair comparison to use.

If I'm comical then you're definitely priceless. This isn't college football where you can gauge the strength of the teams based on a common opponent. This a professional league where it's all about matchups. And I'm glad you brought up hurt players, since the Colts have been missing 13 starters all season.

This isn't the end fucking all on who is going to win, but a good guage. If i am retarded for mentioning this then so are many sports writers who cited how the colts did real well against the rams but the saints didn't win by much. However those are not like games, the saints had a lot of players out for the rams game.

Good for the sports writers. I don't see ESPN Analysts or knowledgeable people using this as a reason for the colts to win.

You can't get a better comparison than the Saints vs Patriots and Colts vs Patriots game.
- Both games were home games.
- Both were nationally telivised games.
- Both were indoors (weather conditions the same).
- Both had teams (including patriots) had all of their main starters healthy and playing
- Both games happened with in two weeks of each other.

Of course you can. One team ended up playing shitty, one ended up playing better. If you really want to do these retarded comparisons, we can look at the Saints losing 3 straight, while I believe 1 or 2 were at full strength, whereas the Colts haven't lost while playing all their starters for the entire game.

BTW, I never said the Saints rested their starters against the bucs. I said they rested their starters in thier LAST game of the year, which was against the panthers. You said the Saints lost their last 3 games, but you FAILED to mention that one of them they rested their starters, it was the panthers game. And the Saints lost againts the Bucs in OT, after missing a FG.

I didn't have to mention it, because the Saints didn't rest their starters for all 3 games, ergo they lost while their starters were playing. Yes, make excuses why they lost, you're good at that.

Well, judging by your ignorance, stupidity, and lack of football knowledge, you'll be back here to tell us how the refs cheated.
