What is the best NFL rivalry?

Patriots - Colts

Regular Season Series: 44-28, Patriots

Postseason Series: 2-1, Patriots

The Patriots dominated the Colts earlier in the decade, winning six straight games, including two playoff matchups, from 2001-05. But Colts quarterback Peyton Manning overcame the "Is Bill Belichick in his head?" question, leading the Colts to four wins in the last five meetings, including a come-from-behind victory in the 2006 AFC Championship game. With the Colts entering at 8-0 and the Patriots at 6-2, the drama will be at it's usual high level.
