This year’s Super Bowl odds are directly related to the
potency of the two offenses, led by two MVP candidates, one of which won his
fourth award.

Indianapolis is powered by Peyton Manning, who is coming off
his fourth MVP, which is a record. His main weapons are Reggie Wayne and Dallas
Clark, but when they were taken away by the New York Jets, Manning made stars
out of Pierre Garcon and Austin Collie. Manning had one of his best seasons
without a running game, and everyone is wondering when the wheels will fall
off. Do you want to bet against Peyton Manning?

Drew Brees is the leader of the New Orleans unit, which was
ranked first for most of the year, but struggled a bit in the NFC championship
game against Minnesota. Brees has a ton of targets in Marques Colston, Devery
Henderson and Lance Moore, but Jeremy Shockey has been hurt, and Reggie Bush
didn’t do much against Minnesota after destroying Arizona. The Saints’ ground
game gets the edge with Pierre Thomas, but it’s not going to overpower anyone.

Super Bowl betting analysis: Manning has been out of his
mind this year, and he’s never panicked. He won’t be bothered by the big stage
of the Super Bowl, of which he won the MVP four years ago.
