What I’ve noticed, though, is that some of those teams were up-from-nothing, catch-lightning-in-a-bottle teams, unofficially setting the record for hyphens in a single sentence.

They have remained at the top of the bell curve for a decade now, winning 12 or more games seven seasons in a row.
They have the best veteran leadership in the league, a relentlessly professional, sober bunch led by Peyton Manning, Reggie Wayne, Jeff Saturday, Dwight Freeney and too many others to mention.
