Betting management players will have their eye on the total of 56.5 points for Sunday’s super Bowl betting matchup between Indianapolis and New Orleans, because these two offenses are the best in the NFL.
Indy is paced by Peyton Manning, who may be a robot, he’s so efficient and prepares so well for the opposition. He has had arguably the best season of his storied career because his ground game, led (a term that is used loosely) by Joseph Addai, has been shut down all season, putting more pressure on Manning’s shoulders. Manning has a strong group of receivers, led by Reggie Wayne and Dallas Clark, but Austin Collie and Pierre Garcon definitely stepped up in the AFC championship game against the Jets. It’s insane to think of how the Colts would be with a decent running game
The Saints have one with Pierre Thomas, and occasionally Reggie Bush, who is a force in the open field as a receiver as well. But the bread and butter of the Saints’ offense is Drew Brees and the passing game, which tore up the league this year. Brees finished second to Manning in the MVP race, and he also has a solid group of receivers in Devery Henderson, Marques Colston and Lance Moore, all of whom can stretch the defense with deep plays. This will open up the middle of the field for Jeremy Shockey, but the tight end has battled injuries over the second half of the season. The Saints are much better when Shockey is in the lineup, and we’re willing to bet you won’t be able to keep him off the field on Sunday.
