OVER 56.5 $550/$500 may push it up later..
A high total but you would have to believe that both teams hit 28 and possibly the 30s and the winner possibly in the 40s.. I have no reason to think that either offenses will be stopped.
The Saints defense is not all spectacular.. Their blitzing style will get scorched against Manning which leads me to believe that they may play coverage.. It won't matter that defense gets dissected anyway.. Plus the Colts will not turn the ball over like the Vikes. They shredded a good NYJ defense and they should be laughing at the Saints defense.
The Colts defense is not that great either.. I know their regular season numbers were decent but I am not giving them much credit for their defensive play against the one dimensional -- running offenses whom they have seen in the playoffs.. They have not seen an offense like this all year and that secondary can be exposed by the Saints.. The Jets left points on the board but I don't think the Saints will make the BIG mistake..
Also, both teams run defenses are not that impressive either.. With both teams playing pass I expect teams to be in short yardage situations for most of the game.. One bad thing about this is that if one team does dominate running the ball, then maybe you might see more running which will make the clock tick.. I am not buying it..
Expect a SHOOTOUT.. COLTS 38 SAINTS 34 or so..
