The Patriots and Colts organizations are well accustomed to playing against one another with a Super Bowl trip on the line, but Sunday's game promises to be nothing like their previous ventures. Of course, the primary reason hinges upon the exodus of Peyton Manning from Indianapolis, followed by an almost unnoticeable rebuild before Luck slowly brought the Colts back to the top.

Total votes: 2,8. Even amid all the changes, New England jumps out as the team with the most experience on this sort of stage. But don't count head coach Bill Belichick among those factoring that into Sunday's game.“Zero," Belichick told The Boston Globe's Shalise. Manza Young about how much experience will factor in. "I think it will be the team that plays the best, I don’t think it’s about how many All- Pros, or how many playoff games (you have),” he said. I’ve been on plenty of teams that didn’t have any experience and won. We can go through the league and find just as many examples of that."There's one key area where Belichick is wrong. Experience should benefit New England in a big way when its cornerbacks go up against Luck's high- powered passing attack.
Darrelle Revis and Brandon Browner have been locking down opposing wideouts all season long, and their physical nature stymied some of Indianapolis' best receivers when the two met in Week 1. The Pats rank just 1. Revis and Browner's impact. The Patriots' experience in fighting the elements should also loom large. Per Weather. com, the forecast for Sunday's game is set to include heavy doses of rain at Gillette Stadium. The impact of weather can be overstated, but a rainy game will inevitably leave both pass- happy teams more focused on the run game.
That's another area in which the Patriots should prosper. They scampered for almost 2. Indianapolis earlier this season, while the Colts rank just 2. The Patriots will completely eliminate the Colts' rushing attack and force Luck to sling his way to victory, which simply won't be in the cards. But the Indianapolis quarterback has effective weapons in the middle of the field (like Coby.
Fleener) to move the ball and keep the scoreline somewhat close. Indianapolis' impressive cover corners will limit Brady through the air, but only enough to keep the Colts in it. Eventually, Luck will force the issue and make some mistakes while the Patriots will run their way to a tight victory. Prediction: Patriots 3.
