Indianapolis v Chicago (Will there be a successful 2pt Conversion) Yes +350

why not..:mj07: LOSER
missed PAT and don't even get the attempt later in the game..RATS

Indianapolis v Chicago (Player Matchup) Rex Grossman +1 Rushing Yards -120 WINNER Grossman 1 yard to zero:mj07:

Grossman vs Manning rushing yards
Gotta believe somewhere in this game Grossman rushes off a play-action pass rather than pass.I will not be surprised if he has 10+ yards rushing.


Indianapolis v Chicago (Total First Downs) Colts - 2.5 -120 WINNER..should have nailed this harder..but hindsight is always 20-20

vs N.E. 32-17
vs BALT 15-13
vs KC 28-7
vs MIA. 24-19

unknown to the casual football fan[certainly the forum members are not in this group]the Colts are moving the chains and they are the ones winning the time of possession.Starting at the Miami game not only have they had more first downs but have held the ball longer..No surprise that it co-insided w/"D" getting better.The return of Anthony McFarland and Bob Sanders was a major help to the "D" that stiffened up and got the ball back into the "O" hands.
With the total set at around 48 that number alone suggest several possessions by both teams.Chicago should have the shorter field if this game is played the way they perceive.Bears attack will be running..no denying that and they will have some success..stupid to think otherwise..But...at a road block..Bears coaching staff will IMHO will put points on the board w/the field goal in lieu of risking a 4th and short yardage with the idea that giving Manning and company a shorter drive for points will lead to their demise.


Indianapolis v Chicago (1st Half - Rushing Touchdown) Yes (Bears) +105 LOSER
Bears are a running team..no secret..no better way to make Grossman comfortable [especially early in the game] and eliminate the jittery bonehead INT in the early going than to rush for the score and make sure Grossman settles in.Huge mistake early is the last thing Bears want out of Grossman.Grossman had 20 INT's on the year..11 of those came on the road.[road game for both teams today] 14 of those 20 INT's were on grass. 12 of the 20 came in the first half..IN BEARS DEFEATS THIS YEAR..Grossman has had 9 INT's and 1 TD.. with QB rating of 19.3...Pivotal INT by Grossman almost assures failure.


Indianapolis v Chicago (Total Receiving Yards) Dominic Rhodes Under 19.5 Yards -120 WINNERsee below

nearly 3 times his average..purely a % play..:shrug:

Indianapolis v Chicago (To Score a Touchdown Anytime) Peyton Manning (Colts) +500 LOSERIwas rooting for that bootleg..oh well


Gotta believe this opportunity will come up at least 2 times in this game..Further believe Manning will call his own number.To the best of my knowledge Colts have saved the naked bootleg for nearly the entire season.Manning had one for a TD versus the Jags early in the regular season if memory serves me[highly questionable:scared ]..I have looked for it in every game since and do not recall it..Do not be stunned if we see it today..If executed properly today it will go for a TD.Furthermore a first goal at the one at least presents the opportunity.


Under + 55 Chicago + 14 Teaser on above 2 selections (all selections must be correct to win) WINNER Teaser kicked me in the butt this year..nice to hit it..but I still played to many games w/Colts in teasers this year.


sucked at these all year long so might as well close the NFL SEASON out w/one.

Bears run..Colts and Bears consume clock..Bears can't have huge turnovers and win.Bears take points w/field goals in lieu of short field for Manning..Colts put together yet another set of time consuming drives just like they have done in the playoff games in their march to the Super Bowl. 40 rushes by Bears certainly in realm of possibility..

TIMEOUTS..commercial after friggin commercial
for crap I never buy..
and still will not buy..:mj07:


MO KILLERS..that's what they are.

long half time ...two very good teams w/excellent staffs make second half adjustments..

good luck to all today..

Lot a very good NFL handicappers in the forum..Really had a blast joining in this year after many many years of just observing..


PITCHERS AND CATCHERS..OH THE BOYS OF SUMMER ARE JUST AROUND THE CORNER:00hour

Well written Old School. I like the Colts -2.5 first downs prop, as well as the Bears first half rushing TD.

So many props to go through on Super Bowl Sunday...
