We’ll I didn’t watch that many movies this year… but I did watch a lot of football. So here is a prediction from Alfie!

The thing about Superbowl predictions are…everybody has to make one! If your wrong nobody remembers or cares because lets face it, there is traditionally  a fair amount of beer and excitement that usually accompanies this event. If you’re right or close… you won’t forget to point it out to all your friends and you get to brag about it for a few weeks to everybody you know. Don’t be this guy though:

“Did you watch the game? “I called that score… well I said 17, 14 it was 13 to 20 pretty close though huh?”

No that’s not fucking close you didn’t get either team right. For bragging rights you need to get at least one team exactly right and within three points on the other AND you have to pick the right team to win. It’s also better if you give a little justification of why so you can prove you were not just guessing.  (If you’re already bored like Gary jr. just  skip the next paragraph and you’ll be at the guess part)

This is the first Superbowl in 17 years that both No.1 seeded teams in each division met in the playoffs. The Saints and Colts both have high powered offenses and decent defenses. The Colts secondary is young but their pass rush is pretty good, and the same is true for the saints. This game to me depends on which team is more successful at running the ball. Running the ball well sets up the long gains. What else does rushing the ball do? It eats up the clock and keeps you’re offense on the field, aka the other offense off the field. With two high scoring offenses that’s something you need to do. The second key element is turnovers. Peyton has been there before and he knows how to be calm. Pressure to get the team and himself a first ring will eat at Brees’ nerves. He will throw more interceptions than manning.

You’re welcome Gary jr. cause we all know you looked at the person next to you and said “oh thank god”

Should be a good game! I’m cheering for the Saints but if I put money down, here is where it would go:

Colts 31, Saints 21.
