Saints have the offense to compete with the Colts. Any given sunday. 2007? Who would have thought

Colts will win the superbowl.They have the OL and the pass rushers.Manning is the best QB in the Nfl.Hate to say it.The colts are also the top franchise in the league right now.

I cant wait to see Brees fire this team up before the game in the huddle. If he can light a fire under his teammates, this will be a great game for the Saints.

People seem to neglect the fact that neither the Saints nor Vikings brought their A game today. Don't judge the Saints by what you saw today. Did people really forget what happened to us a couple months ago?? The Saints really can beat the Colts. It'll be a touchdown-fest to be sure.

The Saints A game > Colts A game.

It's a nobrainer. Saints all the way. I do not want to see all the on the knees ballwashing from the media if Peyton wins yet another Superbowl. It's time for Drew Brees to step up and get in the spotlight for once. How does a guy who passes for 5,000 yards remain so unappreciated by the media? Win a ring Brees, win it for New Orleans. That long suffering city is due for a championship!

I am cheering for the Saints and picking them. I felt they were the best team in the NFL most of the season. I think they have a good chance at winning.

ANYTHING is possible in a Super Bowl..we've seen it over and over

BUT...

even though there will be no Polian Rules in Miami, experience definitely is a huge plus.

Manning doesn't play lights out on that field but ,IMO, his O co-ordinator is A #1.

N.O. won't force Dallas Clark to primarily 6th blocker status. Manning will pass at will on that secondary.

Brees was basically a DNP in the 2nd half of the game last night...by that I mean he was pedestrian to the point of being a detriment.

The Saints whacked Favre all night...he still tore them apart and as much as I can't stand him does anyone think the Vikes don't win if they win the coin flip?

The referree crew will be a major factor in the Bowl. Last night,that crew let the Saints brutalize Favre.If they can bring the same heat on Manning and IF Brees doesn't disappear,I think the Saints have a puncher's chance...otherwise Moonhead gets #2.

You're right. Sean Payton called a very conservative (respect for the Vikes D) game, Drew Brees played an average to mediocre game and the Saints put up 31 points on the best defense in football.
The Colts just got done playing two very very limited offensive football teams.
The Saints just got done playing two high powered offensive football teams and in the case of the Vikes, the best defense in the NFL.
I can see Peyton Manning throwing 5 TD passes.......and losing the game.
The Saints will score a ton of points on the Colts.
Love the Saints in the Super Bowl.

while I respect your view I still feel,from what I saw in the second half, that Brees got rattled..I expected him to continue the same level of play as I saw in the 1st half.Manning plays all 4 quarters.For N.O. to stay with the Colts, Brees HAS TO BE ON the entire game IMO. The Saints secondary is the weakest unit on their defense. Once Manning identified the Jet weakness in the middle,he tore them up and to me THAT was their O co-ordinator working in tandem with him to take advantage of that.Even though Revis was mostly just good in coverage, the Jets DID take away the sideline patterns for a good part of the first half and I think their secondary is superior to the Saints.

I can't see how this game is anything but a shootout and in that case Iwouldn't bet against experience..Manning has it..Clark has it..Wayne has it...tough to rationally pick against that...and I LOATHE the Colts.I'd love to see the Brees that rolled us this season but to me,he's really the unknown in this game.
