Super Bowl
I'm on a quick study break but I wanted to get this on the record in case it turns out to be right. A lot of people are picked the Colts to win the Super Bowl going away, saying that Peyton Manning is some kind of football computer and nobody can stop him. I don't think this Super Bowl is about Peyton at all. I think it boils down to Dwight Freeney. If Freeney is able to play at full strength, the Colts will win handily and the Saints will have trouble scoring. But I think Freeney will be out, or even worse, will try to play despite being severely hampered by his injury. And if that happens, I don't know that the Saints will punt at any point during the game. Yeah, Peyton Manning will dissect the Saints' defense, and yeah, he can drive down the field and score at will, but so can Drew Brees. If the Saints can protect him, he will go right back down the field and match Peyton score for score. All it takes is one stop, and one stop is not so hard. So that's my prediction. With Freeney out, the Saints and the over is a LOCK. If Freeney can play, then the Colts and probably under (but not probable enough to be it). I just want to be able to say I told you so.
