Who Dat Say Dey Gonna beat Dem Saints? The Colts, that's who




Prediction: Colts win 35-24.

Why: Because Peyton Manning is in everyone's head right now. He has won a far more important game than the one on the field, the mental game. The Saints' offense will feel like it needs to score every time out and keep Manning off the field, that will in turn produce costly turnovers that will prove to be the difference in the game.

Why I might be wrong: New Orleans quarterback Drew Brees seems like he is on the verge of getting to the elite, "you don't EVER underestimate me" status. If that's the case, then watch out.

Trademark of sheer stupidity: Why would the NFL want to turn off its own fans by talking about a possible lockout in 2011 in the days prior to the Super Bowl? No one wants to hear millionaires bitch about the money they earn days before their biggest cash cow even of the year. Grow up, will you? Sometimes it seems like history only repeats itself for the most stupid, unnecessary things, not the good ones.

Anyway, sorry "Who Dat Nation". You will have to wait another year for your ring. I truly hope I am wrong though, because I sympathize with the city of New Orleans and the way the Saints have managed to lift its spirits after Hurricane Katrina.
