I really think the Bears will win based on this proven system, it has accurately projected the last 14 out of 16 Superbowls:


There is a system that has been in use for the past 16 years that has correctly predicted the Super Bowl winner 14 times. It involves 12 predictors that each successfully predict the Super Bowl winner roughly 55 to 70 percent of the time, but taken together they work even better. Last year, for the first time in those 16 years, we had to go to the tie-breaker when the categories were tied 6-6 between the Steelers and Seahawks ( Can you predict the Super Bowl winner?).

The twelve categories are broken into five defensive statistics, four offensive and three overall. The winning percentage for each of the categories is based on how often that category favored the eventual Super Bowl winner. The chart below shows all of the percentages.

Now let's look at Super Bowl XLI:

Category Winning Percentage Team with Advantage
Rushing Yards / Attempt .550 Colts
Rushing Yards .550 Bears
Opponent Net Passing Yards .550 Colts
Points Scored .588 Tie
Opponent Rushing Yards / Attempt .600 Bears
Fewer Net Passing Yards .600 Bears
Turnover Differential .625 Bears
Opponent Rushing Yards .625 Bears
Point Differential .663 Bears
Regular Season Record .688 Bears
Opponent Total Yards / Game .700 Bears
Points Allowed .713 Bears
The Bears take the last eight categories, which are the best predictors, all at 60% or better. Of those eight, five are defensive, which confirms the adage: Defense wins championships. Overall, the Bears take nine categories and the Colts only two, with one tie. There have been 18 occasions where the system favored one of the teams with nine or more categories. That team has won 15 times.

The system leans significantly towards the Bears winning their first Super Bowl in 21 years.

Colts and Ill tell you why since you asked. There is only one reason that being said...............They are an all around better team. This is the playoffs. Teams change. The players change. The atmosphere changes. We have all come to the realization that the Colts defense is now for real. They will not digress to their regular season woes. Many and I myself feel that has a lot to do with Bob Sanders. Not that he is a one man wrecking machine, but he gets and keeps the defense psyched according to many reports. I dont think it will even be close. We can look at stats the Colts are better in the playoffs this year. They have won defensively and offensively in the playoffs. That dont mean anything I know thats why they play the game. Anyone can beat anyone on any given day, but with the stakes this high I dont think you will shut down Peyton and Company on offense. And I dont care what Bears fans say Rex can not play a shootout with Peyton. Not on any given Sunday haha. Peace out and enjoy the game.

Let's go Colts! The Bears are going in as the underdogs, according to a lot of the sportcasters. If the Colts defense can hold back the Bears, they should be able to win. If the Bears play against the Colts like they did against the Saints, they do stand a chance of winning.

Colts. They have more talent on both sides of the ball. The offense of the Bears sucks. Grossman will be intercepted at least 4 times.

My hubby says the Colts.
Why Colts:
They have a better offense and their defense will play just well enough to win. Happy Super Sunday (got that from him too).
