Official Predictions: Windy vs. Indy

[Muskycrazy]

Being a bleed purple Viking fan I am going for the Colts . Pretty far from Chi-town but there are still enough Bears fans up here that if they win we will get our noses rubbed in it . I do have a feeling that it could be one of the better Super Bowls we have seen in a while . 28-17 Colts .

[Team Otter]

Bring on the game.

Colts 24

Alright B Bear,

I knew there was something about White Bear Lake that I liked. Glad you are on board. Go Bears.

Actually, I spent a miserable day in White Bear a few years ago, I was on my way back to the Windy from our two week vacation up in Cass Lake when my transmission went out. It was about 6 am when we pulled into White Bear on a Saturday and had to wait for them to open and then had to wait about 10 hours while they fixed our van. What a miserable day!

But hey, now I found a Bears fan there so it can't be all bad, LOL.

[Water Hazard]

Sorry Windy...

Colts 31

Bears 7

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Wow Hazard,

Are you giving 24 points to poor misguided Bears fans?

Just axe-in

Windy

[Born2Fish]

20-17....Vinateri wins the game with 4 secs left in the fourth quarter.....It's gonna be a close game and that score could go either way..But im goin with the colts(obviously).

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

OK Guys,

Here are the early totals on predictions for the Big Dance:

With 30 registered voters weighing in (not counting the "Super Fan" votes of 156 to -2, LOL the average predicted score is Indy 27 and Bears 19. Considering the line right now is Indy by 7, I would say we have some pretty savy football minds out there.

There is still time to vote! Vote For Pedro (kidding)

Windy-

Not to take anything away from your beloved Bears, I just have enjoyed watching Peyton Manning and the Colts play over the past couple of years.

I have even asked my wife what she thinks of the name Peyton if we were to have a son...needless to say, I was shot down pretty quickly!

[Muskycrazy]

All seriousnes Windy Walleye Guy . Seen a bit of sour grapes , little good natured ribbing but am pretty sure that any of us whos teams are not in the big game would love to be in your shoes . Last time the Vikes were in the SB I was like 10 . At this rate next time they make it I'll forget they played before the games over due to my Alzheimers . Anyways ... congrats & enjoy .

[Walleye Guy]

My fearless prediction:

Colts 27 Bears 19. Colts cover and the game won't be as close as the score indicates.

[genegodawa]

OK Windy, showing your true-self again, asking for points???

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Thanks Musky Crazy.

Hazard,

I could go along with your name choice but you need a little work on the spelling. Try Payton instead of Peyton and I am sure you will seal the deal! Then your child's nickname could be "Sweetness". Pretty big shoes to fill.

Windy

[Water Hazard]

Windy-

That's not too bad of an idea...although I am not sure if the kid would love me or hate me with a nickname like Sweetness. Not all the other kids on the playground would understand the historical context.

[mnwild]

Well Windy I hate making prrdictions but here it goes

Bears- 27

Indy- 17

Bear's defense will be all over Manning making him throw a few picks like he did against KC. Nobody is giving the Bear's a chance and that's what scare's me..

[Windy City Walleye Hunter]

Wild,

I likes it!

DAAAAAAAAAAAAAA Bears.

Windy

[jigging wader]

My prediction, Manning keeps his cool, and Rex gets nervous.

Colts- 34

Bears- 27

[soldoncass]

Indy-30

Chi-10

[Smeds]

The key to this game will take place in the trenches. We (The Bears) get early pressure, and lots of it on Manning, and can keep pressure off of Rex, you'll see the outcome ...

BEARS ... 30 (3 FG, 3 TD)

INDY ... 24 (1 FG, 3 TD)

[buzzsaw]

My final prediction is that this game will be closer than I expected, only because of the footing on a wet field... Colts still win.. the Bears horseshoe fell out at the Miami airport.

[PierBridge]

Colts 29-20....and the Over! I would disagree a wet field would help the Bears it actually favors skilled receivers "colts".

And it will be the colts defense picking off a terrible Grossman pass and housing it for 6.

I called that one. Heck of a throw Rex. We all knew you had it in ya.

I dont think you'll see the bears with a long TD pass. Its the thing the colts are the best at defending, the long pass play.

---

C'mon Rex i told you that the colts defend the long ball, dont try that dump. It was another nice try though Rex. Rex=colts MVP

[croixeyes]

I think rex would look good in a vikes uni,that way the queens would get more scoring,all be it for the wrong team.

It was a worthy arguement, it just didn't work out that way bud, it was Addai out of the backfield on dump passes all night... I want to say that I mentioned Addai having a big day running on the Bears and I was close.. it was the two headed monster of Addai & Rhodes. The final score wasn't even close to what it should have been, the Colts totally outplayed and outcoached the Bears... fun to watch!!
