Superbowl Prediction: Colts over Saints 35-21

As a life-long Pats fan, it pains me to say this, but I cannot see how the Colts lose this game. IMHO, Colts win 35-21.

Yes, the Saints have an offense that can match firepower with the Colts. In fact, the Saints and not Peyton and Co. had the Number 1 ranked offense in the NFL.

But the Colts play defense. Surprisingly solid defense. How? I am not exactly sure. But it works. Herein lies the problem for the Saints.

While the Saints will score, and even score a lot, the Colts defense will slow them down. There is such indication that the Saints D will slow down Peyton Manning at all.

So, I hope the Saints win, but I think it will take a miracle and some flukes to beat the Colts.
