The off week was a quick one as the Pro Bowl – and all the chatter as far as whether the Pro Bowl should in fact be in the week before the Super Bowl or not – distracted attention from the one week off. Now we’re back to business as the Super Bowl is on tap for this week.

New Orleans Saints @ Indianapolis Colts

Super Bowl XLIV Odds: Colts -5.5

The New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts are ready to lock horns in Super Bowl XLIV and while both teams are very similar, there is one difference that will stand out: experience.

Both the Colts and Saints have very dynamic offenses and both teams rely more so on their attacks than they do their defenses. At the same time, both teams are led by prolific, Hall of Fame-type quarterbacks and both have an excellent set of wide receivers.

But as mentioned, the difference will be experience. The Colts have been at the big dance before and they have left with the hot girl. The Saints have not.

The Colts won the Super Bowl in 2006 where as this will be the first Super Bowl for the Saints in franchise history. That’s going to be a big Northbet.com lines difference when the bright lights start to shine as the Colts will know what to expect while the Saints may need some time to adjust to the pressure.

Pick: Colts -5.5
