Clearly, both of these guys are the best the NFL has to offer and it is no coincidence that their teams are in the Super Bowl.<\/p>\n<p>While the offenses will be on display, experience might be the key. Execution is the most important factor in football and since the Colts know what to expect on this stage, expect them to be a little more relaxed after kickoff.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Saints Offense versus Colts Defense<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>The one big edge that the Saints offense has over the Colts offense I their ability to run the football. For all the praise that Brees gets for his passing, the Saints were actually the sixth-ranked rushing offense in the NFL this year. For the Saints to win, they will have to play defense with their offense. What that means is that they&#8217;ll have to run the football and keep Manning and the Colts offense on the sidelines. <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wgmg.co.cr\/aspx\/affiliateStoreClick.aspx?ID_SC=1445&amp;ID_I=408\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignleft\" style=\"margin: 1px; border: 3px solid #ffffff;\" src=\"http:\/\/banners.wgmg.co.cr\/aspx\/affiliateGetImage.aspx?ID_SC=1445&amp;ID_I=408\" border=\"0\" alt=\"\" width=\"250\" height=\"250\" \/><\/a> If they can do that, they&#8217;ll have a good chance to win.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colts Offense versus Saints Defense<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Sure, the Saints will try to keep them on the sidelines, but it is nothing they haven&#8217;t seen before. They have faced teams like the Miami Dolphins who try to play keep away, they have faced blitzing teams like the Baltimore Ravens and the New York Jets and they have faced teams like the New England Patriots that try to outscore them. The bottom line is that none of that worked. The Colts have seen it all and that type of experience is what helps teams win a Super Bowl.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Outlook &amp; Pick<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>This will be a battle of scoring and the Colts have the slightly better units. They are a bit better at quarterback, wide receiver and tight end, and they have a big advantage in place kicking. Along with the difference in experience, the Colts should do enough to get this win.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Pick: Colts -4.5<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/www.wgmg.co.cr\/aspx\/affiliateStoreClick.aspx?ID_SC=1445&amp;ID_I=408\">GRAB A 55% Bonus Deposit Bonus at JustBet.com Today.
