Colts vs Bears in the SB


Colts then win a boring SB 41-3

Dunno if it will be Colts (sure hope so), but agree Super Bowl will be boring after the close tussles leading up to it.  Actually, the Super Bowl already happened: New England beat San Diego.

Pats and Saints. (If the Seahawks can almost beat the bears with a QB who had two broken fingers on one hand, and a Loan officer and Hunting guide for 2 cornerbacks, then the Saints should handle the cubs just fine...)

I'll take Brady over Brees any day.

Dred, my wife seems to think the Saints will win due to the "Katrina Factor", whether they win the games, or the refs win it for them. :rofl

Im seeing Bears win over Saints knowing the fact that the Saints have never played in temperatures under 39 degrees this season according to what was said during the Seahawks vs Bears game.  Playing in that cold of weather will have an effect on the Saints as they play where its warm.  It didnt phase the Seahawks because they have played in the cold.  It should be another cold day in Chicago coming into the Saints vs Bears game.

Im seeing Colts over Patriots seeing the fact that the Colts D have found their identity.  The defense has been good against the KC and the Ravens.  If the defense can come in to NE like they have been playing they will win with a potent offense.  Having the weapons that Indy has on offense it should be a rouch day for the Patriots.

Its all pretty much lagniappe for the Saints now. No one here realistically expected them to win more than 6 games this year. Now they're one game from the Superbowl. 32 degrees is not that cold. Haven't you been outside working and taken off your coat in 32 degree weather? Its cold when you first walk out into it, but once you start moving around, its not bad. Its certainly not an Icebowl.


I may be foolishly optimistic, but I dreaded the game with the  Eagles more than the game with Bears. I think the Saints match up much better with the Bears. That Eagles game was scary.

Regardless of what happens, you won't hear any excuses about it being too cold or the field being too soft. I don't expect the Bears to play as bad as they did against Seattle. I think its going to be a very close game, and the winner is going to earn that Superbowl spot.

I'd like to the see the Saints and the Colts for the city's sake.

I am surprised at the Patriot picks. Indy has beat them the last two times in New England w/o working a sweat. Now they are playing at home in the dome, no snow, no cold. And they are playing their best football at the right time. The Patriots are still turning the ball over(which is why I thought they would be done by now), it has been a problem all season and nothing has changed.

I don't see Indy making the same bonehead plays handing them the game. And don't bring up past playoff games, it means nothing at this point.

Actually,  play off experience and Superbowl seasoned veterans means EVERYTHING at this point.

But, you're correct about Indy's advantage, I'm just hoping the Pats win. :aok
