AFC = Colts > Pats +10 spread
The Pats will have a tough time against Bob Sanders and the Dungy Cover 2 scheme. The Colts have won the last 2 meetings in Foxboro, the Pats secondary is questionable, and the only legitimate receiver they have is Brown. I don’t expect Brady to have a big game especially if June and Freeney can press but if Maroney and Dillon produce big numbers the Pats can win.

NFC = Bears = Saints (pick)
The Bears run a lot of 4-3 which should keep Brees pressured but after giving up over 100 yards to Alexander (who was still not 100%) I wouldn’t be surprised if Mcallister had a huge game. Grossman’s last game was pretty good being that his only pick was via deflection but if the Bears are to win he must protect the ball especially with the Saints offensive explosiveness. Who wins? I don’t know but it will be a good game.

Champion = Colts > whoever +7 spread
The Colts match up well to both teams and have proven they can win against a great defense (see Ravens). The Saints will have problems with the Cover 2 and will rely on the run. The Bears will have to rely on their Line and Grossman not handing the ball over. The Colts can move the chains against anyone (highest 3rd down conversion rate ever) and as long as they win over on TOP Manning will have his first Lombardi trophy and I will have won a ****te load of loot. If they lose, it was still one helluva season.
