The Bears’ defense was absolutely dominant through the first 10 games yielding only 12 PPG and 153.6 yards through the air. Since week 10, those numbers have jumped to 21.6 PPG and 261.4 PYPG. Their passing defense will be put to the test this weekend as they face Peyton Manning and his league leading 101 passer rating. Manning has struggled during the playoffs; throwing 6 interceptions to just 2 touchdowns. In the three playoff games his passer ratings were unimpressive: 71.9, 39.6 and 79.1.
The Colts’ defense was atrocious during the regular season against the run. Colts’ opponents ran through the Colts’ defense for an average of 173 RYPG. Not once did the Colts hold any of their regular season opponents to under 100 yards rushing. The Colts’ defense has definitely gotten its act together at the right time though. All three of their playoff opponents failed to surpass the 100 yard mark and they averaged only 73.3 RYPG; almost 100 yards fewer than their regular season opponents. The Bears’ strength is definitely their rushing attack which averages 123.8 RYPG and has rushed for 100+ yards in 11 of the last 12 games.
With Super Bowl Sunday just a few days away, it appears as if the public feels as if the Bears rushing attack and Colts passing attack will each prevail as 67% of the money so far is on the OVER (48.5). Remember, Sportsbook.com “Betting Trends” are an excellent way to gauge whether a line could move. If you like the OVER, you might want to pounce on it early to avoid any movement in the wrong direction.
