FILLIPPONI: Some Super tips for your Super Sunday



Saints (+5) over Colts

I know, picking against Peyton Manning is like betting on Susan Boyle to win a beauty contest.  In other words, it’s not smart.

I'd do it though, and here's why.  I like New Orleans’ secondary and I believe their free safeties mitigate Manning's ability to scan the field.  While Ed Reed is Manning’s nemesis, Darren Sharper is the same type of player and the Saints have good depth at corner.

A banged up Dwight Freeney is the same as no Dwight Freeney because third degree, low ankle sprains are no joke. If he dress and plays, I think it hurts the Colts more because he'll be incapable of moving.

What are the best Super Bowl squares this year?

I don't like field goal numbers- 3s, 6s because both of these teams go for it a lot on fourth down.  Indianapolis kicker Matt Stover doesn't have a big leg and Hartley has missed some chip shots for the Saints.  I think the winner could have 35, 42 or 49 points. 

How about some “what if” wagers you might be able to use at your party since the United States of America allowed sports wagering outside of Nevada.

Will there be a score in the first 7 minutes and 30 seconds of the game?

I Looooove the answer to that question being yes.  Barring a red zone turnover or missed field goal, there's gonna be points scored in this one early.  You think I like the over in this game?

Here’s another one I like - Total receiving yards from Jeremy Shockey. Under 35 yards because he will be a non-factor today.  A leg injury has killed him the last month of the season and  David Thomas has emerged as the pass catching tight end in this offense.  If Shockey has more than two catches I'd be surprised.

Funny how I can bet on Blind Luck to win the 7th at Monmouth Park today, but plunking down a 20-spot on the Saints isn't kosher.

O and by the way, tails never fails.

My Thoughts
I'd like to see Manning get knocked on his rear and the Saints to prevail 31-10. I hate the Colts. I wished they would have got knocked out earlier on what they pulled tanking the last two regular season games.
