Super Breakdown

Time to break this Super Bowl down position by position and hopefully find a winner.

QB-Advantage Colts, you can't say anything about Brees that discounts Peyton, the only thing Brees has on Peyton is his "This is Sportscenter" commercial is hilarious and Oreo commercials suck. Check it out here, http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=3495314&categoryid=4637542

RB-Advantage Saints, they have 3 good RB's in Pierre Thomas, Reggie Bush, and Mike Bell, while the Colts have Addai and Donald Brown. Bush is a triple threat, if he decides to play. The Saints also like to run the ball where as Peyton likes to throw it. I say Peyton b/c Tom Moore was calling run plays in the AFC Championship game and Peyton kept switching to passes.

WR-Advantage Push, the Colts have Wayne, Austin Collie, and Pierre Garcon, they also have Mr. Kendra Wilkinson, but if they go 4 wide they use Dallas Clark, where as the Saints have Marques Colston, Robert Meachem, Devry Henderson, and Lance Moore. They also use Bush in the slot, or line him up wide. Wayne and Colston are both the #1's but they often draw coverage away from the other guys and let take games over. For the Colts it was Garcon and lately the Saints have been using Henderson. With all these weapons both secondaries are gonna have long days.

TE-Advantage Colts, Dallas Clark is healthy and probably the best receiving TE in the game not named Gonzalez, he's also and Iowa guy. Jeremy Shockey for the Saints is not healthy, David Thomas is decent enough but not better than Dallas Clark.

Offensive Line-Advantage Saints, simply b/c the Colts only need to pass protect the Saints line, run blocks, pass blocks gets on the edges for screens. They are really active. The credit I will give to the Colts guys is every play they have to be in their stance for 30 seconds while Peyton stands back there and plays with himself. If I were them I'd be like dude just snap the damn ball so I'm don't get stuck in this position, I'm a fat ass and this is really uncomfortable.

Kicker-Advantage Colts, Matt Stover over Garrett Hartley, enough about kickers.

Punter-Advantage Push, who the hell is gonna punt with these two offenses?

Returner-Advantage Saints, Bush can change field position in a heart beat, Garcon and Chad Simpson aren't as big of threats to break one.

Safeties-Advantage Saints, simply for the fact that Darren Sharper is a ball hawk. If the Colts had Bob Sanders I'd give them the advantage but he's hurt. Antoine Bethea for the Colts might be a game breaker for them, if you haven't heard of him he made a lot of big stops against the Jets.

Corners-Advantage Push, I've never heard of any of these guys, maybe Randall Gay for the Saints, but only because he was in New England, he doesn't even start. These guys are gonna get killed all day, if somehow one for either team creates a turnover it will for sure change the game.

Linebackers-Advantage Colts, Gary Brackett and Clint Sessions are both great players and sure tacklers. I like Jonathan Vilma for the Saints, but Scott Fajitta I'm not a fan of. If either team decides to blitz, the Saints are more likely, whatever one of the LB's can hit the QB, it could make a huge difference.

Deffensive Line-Advantage Colts, even if Freeney doesn't play, Robert Mathis is a bona-fide stud pass rusher. The Saints will have an easier task knowing that 80% of the time their pass rushing, where the Colts will have to read run or pass. Not sure any of these guys are gonna make a difference in the game, maybe Mathis if he can get to Brees. The Saints are gonna have to dissrupt Peyton, but after the league said the Farve hit on the first pick was a flag expect the Refs to protect Peyton the way bears protect their cubs.

So the score is Colts 5 Saints 4. However, I can't help but pull the NFC and go against everyone who's annoited Peyton the greatest ever, as of now he has as many rings Mark Rypien, so yeah not the greatest ever. Here's the prediction 49-45 Saints expect fireworks early and often. MVP Darren Sharper, he's gonna pick Peyton off twice and take one for a TAINT.
