Manning's masterful magic will lead Colts to win
(AP) — There is one reason the Indianapolis Colts will win the Super Bowl: Peyton Manning.
He may be the best pupil ever to play the game, and by now he has dissected every New Orleans Saints game tape available and likely found every chink in their plans.
He'll have help from Pro Bowl receivers, an improving ground game, an almost impenetrable offensive line and a solid defense that has played better than numbers suggest. They will win even if Dwight Freeney can't play Sunday.
The Colts have hitched their hopes to Manning, and he won't let them down in what promises to be an offensive game of wits.
