I don't think either will go undefeated. Saints have been shaky for the past couple of weeks. The Redskins should have beaten them. Dallas may take them down.
Indianapolis should have lost to the Patriots. The Jets will be tough.
Both teams will be playing for pride and history of course, but they also will need to start looking ahead to the playoffs. To go undefeated from here out I think they need to essentially have games won by the third quarter. If they're going into fourth quarter slugfests they are going to step back and say "what exactly are we thinking?" Do they run the risk of having stars injured? Do they wear out their linemen, knowing there are potentially six more games to play? Sometimes a loss is what's needed in order to refocus. Sure a perfect season is the dream, but on the NFC side, you've gotta start thinking about Minnesota, Green Bay, Philly and Arizona, not to mention the wildcards like NY and Dallas, who are all looking to bring the pain into the post season and aren't distracted by chasing a perfect season. On the AFC side, you've got the ever present New England, San Diego, Cincinatti, the Ravens, and even Miami, NY and possibly Pittsburgh lining you up in their sites. To run the table from now until the Superbowl and stay healthy would be amazing. It would be great to see. But I'm actually hoping to see a Colts-Vikings superbowl won by the Vikings (my favorite team in my youth and they've never won the big one, plus it would be a great swan song for Favre).

Favre isn't done. Win or not I bet he is back.

money is on neither team going undefeated but I would say the Saints are more likely. It would be an accomplishment for them, while Indy would not probably see it the same. They have been there and done that .... and didn't win it all. They have shut down before so I would not be surprised to see them do it again with home field locked up. As a fan, I would love to see them both go undefeated into the playoffs ... and an undefeated matchup in the superbowl would be awesome!

i really cant see how the jets are being picked unless you all are jets fans. a rookie quarterback isnt going to beat the colts and there defense wont stop manning

And Even if the Jets D did stop Manning ..Sanchez will just throw one to many picks, and lose it that way..

The Colts could rest their starters and that would lose it for them. However, Manning has just a big enough ego want to go the distance for the record to the team's detriment as they will lose their ass in the playoffs.
