Colts' Manning Vs. Brees Destine To Be Everything Fans Expect

By Danny Powell


Every generation of football sees the emergence and prevalence of a few elite quarterbacks. In the 80s and 90s, we saw the likes of Montana, Elway, Marino, and Aikman dominating the sport. Currently, quarterbacks like Manning, Favre, Brady, and Brees are clearly the best in the game.

It should be fitting that the two of them will square off during the final game of the year. Both of them had what many believed to be career years, and more importantly, both of these teams were seen as the best in their respective conferences to start things off.

Both the Saints and Colts won their first 14 games, leading many to speculate as to whether these teams would go undefeated through the course of the entire season.

Neither the Colts nor the Saints finished out the season without a loss. In fact, each team lost two games, each for their own reasons. Still, this was enough to secure home field advantage, which clearly helped to secure a Super Bowl berth for each team.

When Indianapolis and New Orleans meet up with one another, fans will all agree about the fact that the winner will probably come down to the team with the more effective quarterback.

This is different from the last few Super Bowl meetings we've seen. If you look at the previous two winners in the Steelers and Giants, both teams won the game on the heels of a strong defense.

It may be true that the Saints and Colts have both shown better defensive performances than in years past, but it's all about the offense when all is said and done. Brees and Manning are both masters of their trade.

What happens from here is anyone's guess, but one thing remains true no matter what. The world will have the opportunity to enjoy to of the best quarterbacks in the world, both of them in their primes.
