We've been lucky. The last
two years we've experienced classic Super Bowl's. Let's make it three
in a row. Defense wins championships. In this one, which ever defense
can stop the other offense four times, will win the game. Look for the
Saints to use the "Us against the world" battle cry to shock the
Colts. After a fine NFC championship game, although he threw the ball
with less conviction, Brees will be named MVP by posting Super Bowl
numbers even Phil Simms would be proud of. Manning will be his usual
dominant self, but will hit the ball-hawking Darren Sharper once, and
that could the difference. New Orleans 41 and Indianapolis 35. See
you next season. XLV prediction: Giants 31 Colts 28.

Now this is obviously the hardest game to pick a winner. The Colts,
according to my sources are favorite by 4 1/2 points. The Over/Under is 56 1/2.
I think the over would be something to take, but I can also see this supposedly
high scoring game be a defensive game. It tends to happen that way. Now I love
both Peyton Manning and Drew Brees. Followed both their careers since college.
In my opinion the defense that can create turnovers will be the winner. It's a
tough call, but I think the Colts will be able to get more pressure on Brees
than the Saints will get on Manning. Going with Peyton....Colts by 7.

The Saints. From early in the season my brother and I have had them penciled to win it all. I know it's against Manning but I have to stick it out.

This is a legitimate match-up of the 2 best teams in football.
With or without Dwight Freeney playing for Indy, Drew Brees is a stud.
With that being said, Peyton Manning will have a decent game. He will
square off against a defense that has knocked one QB and possibly two
into retirement. Much like the way he figured out the Jets, he will the
Saints.
Honestly, this game is a toss-up. I'll take the Colts, who win it 34-27.
Gregg
This game features the top two offenses and quarterbacks, as you can see on Ryan Sayler's Real Fantasy blog. Each team has a somewhat underrated defense. However, the Colts do not give up big plays and thats what the Saints offense is all about. If Dwight Freeney does not play, it's a blow to the Colts but I refuse to count out Peyton Manning and his many weapons. I would not be surprised to see this game end up a little lower scoring then many believe. Colts win, 27 - 16
