GO COLTS!!!

Going into the Vikes/Saint's game, thought I'd root for Saint's in Super Bowl if they beat Vikes. But the Saint's D chose the low road, and put a few too many unsportsman-like late hits on Favre, so its pretty hard to root for a villain. (lucky for the Saint's the Vikes are a cursed team, ala the Cubs....cuz Vikes are the better team)

GO COLTS!!!

Peyton Manning is one of the only QB's to have a higher Passer Rating when he is being blitzed.

That combined with the Saints having a bad secondary, and the Colt's having the best O-line in football.... means smart money is on the Colts.

Your definition of a late hit is loose to put it mildy. Just because the QB manages to get rid of the ball before he hits turf, that doesn't make it a late hit by any stretch. If you keep trucking for 10 yards after he throws and level the QB, thats a late hit, but not when you're a half a step out he gets it rid of the ball.

They got flagged on the only questionable one that I saw (after the handoff to Harvin). The other they got flagged on was a clean hit as far as I'm concerned. It looked bad because Farve was in the process of falling when he got hit but it was clean.

Hell, the Saints are my team but I don't even honestly think they can beat the Colts. They had trouble with Favre who is a good QB but Manning is on a whole other level. He's basically a coach on the field playing.

Short of Manning getting hit by a bus tomorrow or Gregg Williams inventing a new defense never before seen, I just don't see it happening...

the best O-Line that let Manning get sacked 3 more times than Brees in the post season... not to mention that Brees is rated better than Manning... no doubt as a team though, the Saint's are the underdog..

I thought he was flagged for driving the QB into the ground.
