Where did you find that?
95% of the sports announcers, writers, analyst etc... are all calling for Indy to win. Payton Manning is the great QB ever, how could any one beat him. The Colts are the greatest team ever, blah blah... tired of hearing it. Dungy "I'd be shocked if the Colts don't win, they will win big".
Yes the colts played in a superbowl and won it, yes it was in Miami. Did you know that over the last 4 years Brees has played just as good if not better than Manning? The Saints have the #6 ranked Rushing offense vs Indy's (dead last) 32# ranked rushing offense (can you say 1 dementional, the saints will be able to put more defenders in coverage, or blitz not having to worry as much about the run.)
The best common opponent... New England. The Saints and Indy both played New England at home, with in 2 weeks of each other. Both teams had the full line up of main starters, and New England had the same players for both games. The outcome: Indy wins 35 - 34 because idiot Belichick goes for it on 4th from his own 28 yard line instead of punting. Indy wins one they should have lost. The Saints beat the shit out of New England, winning 38-17. It wasn't even as close as the score.
The Saints played at Miami stadium this year, the Saints have played on a big stage (NFC championship game) twice in the last 4 years, they can handle the big stage.
Just don't see how everyone is counting the saints out.
