Call us what you want, but we’re betting on the underdog New Orleans Saints to win the Super Bowl. Maybe we mucking like the idea of a Hollywood ending too much, maybe it’s because our 44th President (Obama) picked New Orleans, or maybe it’s fate as the Saints, a franchise that came into existence 44 years ago, will make their first appearance in the 44th Super Bowl.
Besides all that mucking folklore here is the science behind our pick.
The third best player on the field (after Peyton Manning and Drew Brees) is the Colts DE Dwight Freeney who is a constant threat on the pass rush. Fortunately for the Saints, Mr. Freeney mucking F’d up his ankle against the Jet’s 2 weeks ago and is uncertain if he will play. And even if he does, we don’t think he’ll be mucking affective.
The Saints had the number 1 ranked offense and they did this with many weapons, from talented wide receivers and Reggie Bush out of the backfield. The Colts on the other hand lack any backfield as they ranked last in rushing this season. So if the Saints can do a good job of shutting down Colt’s receiver Dallas Clark and sack Manning a few times then the game is theirs.
Finally, they are the underdog, sure the Colt’s have been to the Super Bowl pretty recently and won, but they are the favorites. All that expectation has got to add unneeded stress. So the Saints have the advantage since they got nothing to loose.
Bottom line, both teams have lack luster defenses and can score very quickly on offense so look for a high scoring game. However, the Saints will win because they want to prove something, to do something for the city of New Orleans, where their franchise has helped the recovering city more than anything since that mucking b#$! Katrina. To them, it’s mucking personal!
