With a win on Sunday, Tony Dungy will become just the 2nd coach in NFL history to lead a team to a 7-0 start in 3 straight seasons.

Week 8 preview: Colts, Bears aim for 7-0
NEW YORK (Oct. 24, 2006) -- Tony's approaching Curly.
And what Tony Dungy's Indianapolis Colts can accomplish this week has been done only once before in the 87-year history of the NFL -- start a season at 7-0 in consecutive years.
Head coach Curly Lambeau's Green Bay Packers performed the feat three years in a row from 1929-31, finishing with the best record in the NFL all three seasons.
Dungy would like to repeat that end-of-season result, but knows his Colts have a long way to go. "It's hard to win games in the NFL," he says as Indy prepares to play at Denver. "You don't want to take it for granted."

So what do you think? Will Indy win the game and help their coach tie Lambeau's mark? And if they can, historically speaking, what kind of achievement is this for Dungy? Is this the stuff Hall of Famers are made of?
