After going 2-0 in the championship games (and barely losing on the Vikings money line), FJA is hot!

I have been riding Peyton Manning all year long and going against the Saints because I felt they were a bit overrated. Now I am dealing with the Colts giving 5.5 points to the Saints. Logical choice is to stick with the Colts and Peyton. However, I don’t think I can do that.

The decision to pick the Saints does not have to do with the Freeney injury. I just think 6 points is a lot for the Colts to cover. The Colts had a tough time stopping the Jets offense last weekend. We all know the Saints can score quick and has a very good running game. I also think the Saints can play the “keep the wide outs in front” game against the Colts and make Peyton earn his touchdowns. In order for the Saints to win, they must stop the bombs and deep outs.

Super Bowl XLIV will come down to the last possession and clock management. I believe Sean Payton can manage the clock better than Caldwell and Peyton. Even if Sean cannot manage the clock, I still don’t think the Colts can cover 5.5 points. Go with the Saints and the money line as well.

Now the over under… The total points for the game is at around 57 or 8+ TDs. The Saints can definitely score 4 TDs. The question here is can the Colts score 4 TDs. I am leaning towards over as I think the game will come down the wire with the Saints winning or losing by a late field goal. Go with the over despite the fact that I’ve been recommending all the Saints games to be under.
