oochymp 2,393 Posted October 1, 2013 well, we're a quarter of the way through the season and down to five unbeatens, so who stays that way the longest? here are the schedules for the five teams over the next six weeks: Denver: @ Dallas v. Jacksonville @ Indy v. Washington Bye @ San Diego Kansas City: @ Tennessee v. Oakland v. Houston v. Cleveland @ Buffalo Bye New England: @ Cincinnati v. New Orleans @ New York Jets v. Miami v. Pittsburgh Bye New Orleans @ Chicago @ New England Bye v. Buffalo @ New York Jets v. Dallas Seattle: @ Indy v. Tennessee @ Arizona @ St. Louis v. Tampa Bay @ Atlanta here are the games that could be between unbeatens: New England plays New Orleans week 6, Denver and Kansas City meet in week 11 (they also play week 13, so if they tie week 11 ... ) Denver plays New England week 12 and New Orleans plays Seattle week 13 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
DonovanMcnabb for H.O.F 2,241 Posted October 1, 2013 The Dever Broncos for me. They are only going to get better when Von Miller returns. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
blotsfan 2,112 Posted October 1, 2013 Denver looks the best and has the easiest schedule. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
56AceInDaPlace 110 Posted October 1, 2013 KC is losing this week, so... ill take the Patriots. I think the Broncos are due for an upset. Seattle and New Orleans i want to pick, but i think people will get hyped on whos going 16-0 and most of them will end up losing within the next week or two.

housemd 338 Posted October 1, 2013 I'll take the Broncos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Burfict Storm 39 Posted October 1, 2013 Denver @ Dallas For some reason I'm getting a weird vibe from this game. It smells like an upset. I don't like Dallas, but something tells me this game just isn't right for Denver. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BC 331 Posted October 1, 2013 Probably Denver considering experience and scheduling. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch 874 Posted October 1, 2013 I'm going with the Saints. Their hardest test is next week and if they get past the Bears, I think they can go on a further run. I think they'll beat New England. I agree with Burfict and think the Cowboys may upset the Broncos. The Chiefs finally play a good defense this week so that will be interesting but the Titans are also going against a good defense. It can probably go either way but I think the Chiefs make it past the Texans (I really don't know why I continue to pick them with Matt Schaub...) I don't think the Patriots make it past the Saints. I think the Seahawks will lose one of the games on the road. It would be nice if it was to the Colts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Cheese Head 11 Posted October 4, 2013 The Denver Broncos offense is just ridiculously good. It is going to be tough for any team to outscore them. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch 874 Posted October 7, 2013 Seahawks down even though no one voted for them and so are the Patriots. The Saints got past the Bears and now go to New England. If the Saints get past New England (which I think they will), they should be the last undefeated team. The Saints have the harder schedule compared to the Broncos but I'm riding with them. I also think the Colts can be a trap game for the Broncos. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I also think the Colts can be a trap game for the Broncos. Manning isn't going to let his first game against his former team turn into a trap game, and what the hell is it a trap for anyway? their next two weeks have them hosting Washington and taking their bye Edited October 7, 2013 by oochymp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dutch 874 Posted October 7, 2013 Well what exactly constitutes a trap game? Is it when a superior team loses against a team that is considered inferior? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
oochymp 2,393 Posted October 7, 2013 (edited) Well what exactly constitutes a trap game? Is it when a superior team loses against a team that is considered inferior? no, a trap game is generally when a team has a big game coming up that causes them to overlook an inferior opponent, but I've heard it used (less frequently) when there's any sort of distraction that would cause a good team to under-prepare for a team they assume they'll beat and end up losing because of it, generally it just applies to the favorite underestimating the underdog what you're talking about is just a potential upset Edited October 7, 2013 by oochymp Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
