Fair enough, you didn't say that the Colts weren't overrated, but you said that the Patriots were overrated. And also, I never said that
you said the Colts weren't overrated. I made that remark on my own after seeing what a lackluster game they just had. Plus, that was phrased as a question (a leading question of course), and I see that you agree that they may be overrated. My point is that the Patriots are not.
Basically, I don't understand how you can overrate statistically the BEST NFL TEAM EVER (so far). There's just no comparison, really. That's the top rating you could ever get, and what is there to say that that's incorrect, really? On pace for most points, margin of victory, QB rating, wins, etc ever in a different era where you aren't
supposed to be able to build a team like this. Sure, their division is extremely weak, but it's not like they've just sneaked by those teams, they've absolutely dismantled them. They also handled the 8-1 Cowboys, 5-4 Redskins, 5-4 Chargers, rather easily and have beaten the 7-2 Colts on the road despite poor one-sided officiating.
If they struggle against the Steelers or anyone else on their road to what I believe will at least be 14-0 start, then we'll have a discussion. But for now, they are the best team ever, and I don't think any kind of "overratedness"(?) is involved. To me, it's a fact but you can of course disagree.
