In the AFC, there's also two teams that the Colts should watch out for The Chargers and Patriots. They play great ball and have the sports analysts salivating over them, only to lose in the first or second round of the playoffs I'm not ready to climb off the Patriot bandwagon just yet Don't count the Patriots out of the equation. They should've beaten the Colts already, and I think they could do it again. Tom Brady obviously has to get healthy, but he's got plenty of time for that. 
There's no consolation prize for finishing the regular season undefeated In fact, it's extremely overrated. It's an amazing accomplishment, but it doesn't make a team any harder to beat in the playoffs by being undefeated. This article is also featured on Anything and Everything Sports. This spring Pedroia will need to work on his hitting He only hit .296 He hit .326 in the '08 season! Why was he having a slump His fielding was great last year He also hit 15Home runs. There's no doubt in my mind that he shouln't do great this season.I was reading a book on Dustin a few weeks ago. I gotta tell ya, he seems like a great guy and a great player.

Currently, the Oregon Ducks are three point favorites over the Ohio State Buckeyes A No 7 versus No. Oregon had two thrilling wins over Arizona and Oregon State while Ohio State hadtremendous victories over Penn State and Iowa.Naturally, many people, myself included, are very interested to see the Ducks' explosive offense face the Buckeyes' stingy defense, but as a sports fan who loves to find the facts behind the numbers, I had to see just how legitimate Oregon's offense and Ohio State's defense really were.So at first glance we can see that Oregon has the 25th ranked offense with 424.7 yards per game while Ohio State has the 5th ranked defense, only allowing 262.5 yards per game. In a 12 game schedule, the Buckeyes only managed to play four teams ranked in the Top 55 in total offense. Over the course of the season the Ducks played seven teams in the Top 50 in total defense (Four of which are in the Top 21).In addition, the Buckeye offense is pitiful (71st with 364.8 yards per game) despite only playing four teams in the Top 40 in total defense, and playing five teams ranked lower than 81st in total defense.The Ducks defense is ranked 32nd only allowing 329.4 yards per game while playing a schedule that included seven teams in the Top 55 in total offense.After discovering all of this, it is no wonder the Buckeyes have come up short in BCS bowls the last three years, and it will be no different this year.
The Ducks have too much to lose in what will likely be one the most, if not, the most memorable season in Oregon football history.My prediction is that the Ducks' offense will overwhelm Ohio State's overrated defense, and the Buckeyes' offense will sputter against Oregon's athletic defense.Even if I am wrong the outcome will be the same: A Duck victory.Maybe the Buckeyes should schedule a game in Autzen in an upcoming season ... it might prepare them for Top 10 caliber football.Go Ducks! . As reported on ESPN, the Redskins are talking to former Broncos head coach Mike Shanahan about taking the job in Washington.
