I feel that way about '06 and I don't even think that was the best Colts team. But...
-suspect run-D held held Larry Johnson to like 30yds after two of the greatest back-to-back rushing seasons ever.
-beat a loaded Ravens who had a defense that I've read journalists argue was as good or better than 2000's.
-took down the Pats, obviously.
Not really any what-ifs with that team like with, say, the '05 Steelers or something. Win the Super Bowl, obviously. But some cherries on top are nice.

While I agree that beating some specific teams along the way is great, I will take a championship any way we can get it. You play who you play, just fucking win it. If we take down the pats or titans along the way then thats just makes it a bit sweeter.
