Our 3-D NC as the entire world tries to break down the Super Bowl. The match -- the quarterbacks the offense is the defense is home field advantage of having been there before and not. We turn to our friend Gary Brent from cold hard football facts and WEEI dot com and Sports Illustrated and the food and beer columnist for the Boston Herald when you sleep Gary Berger in Miami right now covered -- all. I actually brought -- manhunt for sure we know about it in Miami I'm. And I'm driving around and I'm right Allen what we. England George you're outside Jacksonville in the league we're in it a lap I don't break down don't drive. -- don't break down in rural Georgia. I got I got actual or historic -- If you're gonna when opera viewed government rhetoric got out. Large Georgia walked out like that Liggett portal practical -- yeah. Yeah and your pickup truck to right. On camera that -- okay you're safe again. That's a general -- have a pretty mild no sense I think you civilians -- you can go. They carry that drive allows you time to give some thought to how you wanna break this down now. You do a lot differently than Jerry and I do I will admit at the beginning of this week in fact they already did. That that my Super Bowl breakdown was the simplest could be I wanna -- Explore. Just -- football games and make my case based on what I saw from two football games and by the way they were played a week apart. We never ten. The patriots at Indianapolis. And -- number twelve the patriots at New Orleans if you look at those two games. The -- -- about equally you know and in -- in week ten at that weren't we twelve. They should've beaten Indianapolis. You know at a pop in for fourth and two and they were absolutely scorched. By New Orleans I like Orleans based on my two -- assessment. You know I could record. Probably a pretty good way to look at it and what that is applicable -- -- -- are -- act it's. I look at what alternate academic and I know our mean Jerry talk -- -- or are empirical all okay. We're all looking out the book all that are almost belt and achievement stopped that. Good. And that -- really gotten better and those aren't the ball and open period I mean what are -- -- -- -- and won the MVP award one. Bring to a better every single indicator everything that's important -- had a better. A better feed and I can't even sort of fifteenth and while all the way we looked article are all kinds of after reading applying or what the quarterback to Aristide and the economic written it yet I would reject the bill -- pretty -- There were thirty in order to essentially pick a lot of things well it. Beat the colts meanwhile -- -- -- twelve different from anyone want and the patriots by the way and we -- Drew -- -- the Patriot Act November 30. So it in in the passing game simple fact of all I think it all. A lot of these numbers really stuck up in an Abrams tank and dot. Try to really look at the early necessarily promote you can't protect it way to what you -- do -- -- haven't been quite right. And you know what -- steal the -- team here I looked at two games to carry maybe that's our our our attention span the -- -- we can only handle two games. I looked at the AFC championship game and the NFC championship game in in my mind the that the saints lost the -- NFC championship game they just -- a break when. When -- Brett Favre threw them the ball rather in a lot of. But a football guard yeah and. You know what that was at home that was in New Orleans and they struggled. Against Minnesota and out Indianapolis. Faces. The jets a week after facing the ravens by the way a really tough defense. And Peyton Manning after a little bit of -- -- films -- round picks them up aren't. I thought that the difficult or much more impressive in their coverage championship game in the saints were. Well you know would it what I can -- -- academic people in greatest -- -- performance when he considered and rejected a one in every independent it'll. -- alternate as a passer rating on the way I like to edit and I'll ever picked up otter Gary could be. It might expand its greatest would that we critic to chip and 100. Equality the opposition united you might say that if you try to game between the vehicle at a critical brought into the break come back. Right decoder there're there are -- It would get in or more -- yet -- -- -- -- -- look nervous are all look at it on from oak cherry. Which I really don't know incredibly well get two very good quarterback and electric current war would welcome back. After their regular we could hope people don't want a quarter one quarter cup -- -- -- -- great. Doctor -- doctor said they -- -- against Favre were are you at home again it's a Mac the crap out by a woman gets far. The demo party at his best game. It was Minnesota career in my opinion. Bigger -- -- opera great -- he had some good moment -- it in particular centered really. Overall don't want to -- -- one touchdown and yet it's -- pocket picked up we in the department effort and looked into seven equally. Our -- a pretty good not a -- meanwhile they're true or not but again. Joe Flacco Mark Sanchez also. You're right I mean it like it admitting it brought in fresh -- -- great incredible and you're very good in very good defense -- Adversely affect her play soccer competition at this current output -- -- think defense is much better equipped. And a Manning and the colts deep into the crypt Campbell agreed -- point out one way outlook at a. I you know I look at the saints and the vikings game -- like a heavyweight title fight where they were just go to the body going to the body and had a cumulative effect the ankle got injured the knee got into the shoulder was injured at the end he couldn't you know he couldn't Brett Favre. Administer the knockout punch in fact he made the big mistake. Partly because it ought to run five or six or seven yards to get an easier field goal so that brings me to this question obviously carry Baltimore defense couldn't completely. Shut down or couldn't couldn't shut down. The -- The jets couldn't shut down the -- My point is that Greg would probably looks at this and says I welcome the confused Peyton Manning for four quarters they take that mentality about the body punching. And they take the mentality that the patriots brought to the Super Bowl against the St. Louis Cardinals greatest turf on a great show on turf and try to pound everybody where and the blue horseshoe for the entire game and see if they can out physical them into a Super Bowl championship. I think you'll definitely see it actually get some interesting numbers and I'll check it secret -- -- -- and yeah -- and and they give credit them but are. They rated. Our what do think Russia argued privacy guard post when they drop guard coverage and where there's quote that after he could include dramatically article like this. -- -- -- -- -- After reading what that would -- -- -- and probably not go to court and of the inner party that -- and include them. I think to write not very computer and I don't be a backlit treatment and he got try to make. Topping happened and didn't get after recently it got I don't like it opened that aren't on pop that anybody really not it will probably not. You I would bet that exactly the spirit got here -- -- -- -- that support and you're. Are you gonna declare. Only if he wins is gaming can declare Peyton Manning the greatest quarterback ever. Now now I didn't know I didn't want it ever absolutely but I. Put up great numbers but it public actually put up -- big -- where it went like -- Look at numbers like those are. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- It's still going to be what are the even made an up or else right now -- -- -- -- is cute and very average. Playoff quarterback in the -- -- -- -- got a couple but in in that -- equipment but there. But -- -- stack up again like Joe Montana agreement are up people crop audible. Numbers in in the lineup and are likely it is its regular theater production it is absolutely Jacqueline -- You don't win at all I think you're a lot of guys here talk radio what people Eric on what their -- separating the Iraq a better and secret court what they. I picked -- a lot guide to current equipment they're kind of situation yet put up those numbers. Our clutch again -- the player ejected at one dark after another. And upload it -- -- -- -- application of that. Discussion of the topic that upside yet if you keep it at Joe Montana. Now he's built up into the job market -- better than. Bart Starr a guy -- people. Do not appreciate it incredible number -- predicted a difficult circumstances. And stock price twelve feet and you know I could actually get through -- stop them. Don't -- in the NFL. I don't think you quite figured you'd better then the neat guy -- kind of getting credible parent for. Bob Brady with Brady on your little list. I'll won't publish atrocious trickle trickle up Erica yet to get ready what exactly. A couple of he would like art effect overall academic interest that you could say it -- Britney to figure you're. Our but it is the basketball are back -- to -- an argument could get what they radiate that all are either but. You know people heavyweight what happened more recently bought a political will -- -- it. You know he's he's one book one -- all radiate one vehicle what do you don't really -- -- -- one or MVP award which. Duplicate regardless of the market but their cycle. -- editorial the drug for example -- either the quarterback better numbers and we Drew Brees that you're much better even statistically analyze. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Because -- -- future the argument I do because in the water -- Well -- almost everybody who grew a you know handicaps this game say what you just simply can't stop. Peyton Manning there -- -- -- to win this thing and rubber stamp the other rubber stamp the outcome -- -- -- -- football that's let me ask you this this might not be a fair question based on most people believe. This is going to be a track meet in -- may be won't be 4541. But it might be you know 3835. Or whatever to this may not be fair but early in this football game what the indicators. That you will be looking for to tell you how this thing is going to turn up what we know early in the game what indicators are gonna suggest this team that teams can prevail. Well as wanna treat different kind of -- -- a lot of pink brick I write about I want to think what the albeit because. We can now fifteen. Try to do better -- -- and actually run the ball very well this year that -- not a particularly if our lucky parents. And I think that I am trying to probably a bit but what she yelled at the purity you're epic action might have met -- bitter -- if you look at that production in the passing game. I would like -- in the face front -- it into a little bit and try to keep from balanced and try to really. What practical all the weapons but captured an outfield weapon that that so I I really look I don't look -- be firing. All appeal which Drew Brees in the -- -- -- -- I'm really gonna talk a little object you're gonna -- in the. And what happens if if Dwight Freeney is. Unable to go we're just totally ineffective no plays appeared series and then leaves the game does that change your mind about the game out of pulls little -- No I don't I mean I don't really need I don't -- with these digital little. I could about it judgment because wonderful extra misinformation goes on around and then it pretty good to me specifically had always been kind of -- -- A one trick pony but you don't need it does it look -- aperture. -- atmosphere of this particularly style. Our web 200 I think it appeared like a the last couple yet clearly Robert that there's actually bought back and watched apple. All this great period -- been pretty bad I don't get an -- that is exactly but I don't know I'm not I'm not really I don't know how much impact yet they eat at a actually. I'm -- I don't know. What the best game each of these teams played I think you probably make -- case of the saints' best regular season game. Might have been against the patriots on November 15 amateur with the colts as. The question is if both of these teams played to 100%. Of their capability which one wins. I like it started to think they're better on both artistic. Bought mature or that. They really haven't got that spelled. You know outbid everyone -- great man and that is that you know -- -- -- are great but you know more productive what are I don't know how. -- you know what I mean urgently -- -- you know much much more productive. And just in that you don't -- we are a joke you know achieved an article indicated that different were equally good. Not once -- across -- an -- indicated this year and a -- actually kind of average to -- the most important aspect of the cold guard. If you're general retreat actually want the -- effects are huge even which -- -- -- -- pick credible workman like. Very machine like gold to go up real -- -- -- a likable. It was a bit different in outlook also -- -- -- -- -- really you don't really well. They have been in the post season but that's what they had to do and I had to do that to -- Baltimore to beat the jets but they haven't lost a meaningful game -- since last year the cult's main. But that's -- kind of but they're big they're not like launching a good number I don't pick an -- war cripple picture that really helped one obviously -- -- people. You know better ostensibly -- cannot -- -- good defense which were not perfect and Burke compared to injured by. -- They're not they're a lot of different got to know one. And I mean actually I look at the but. And it actually got them -- -- equal percentages. Get everything on both start the ball but barely so well. Final question for me carry burn because you know you deal with cold hard football facts -- -- that's the name of the deal here do you put any stock do you put any. I'll wait in the intangibles that people talk about for instance. The Super Bowl experience factor in all the colts have been there they know about the weird week they know about -- all the things that ticket requests saying spell or the saints are being disrespect and everybody in the world of picking the colts except for you'll. Their quarterback Manning is getting much more credit for being a much better player even -- -- -- put up the numbers -- -- intangibles come into play here on Sunday. It's a question but he actually remember terabyte a duty to use some been -- now don't you could care -- you know it's all out. You know the -- -- can be better -- -- better you know better -- the treatment is gonna win again for order or -- a difficult trip it's cultural war or you know he got no other way they're. There are actually haven't gotten the. Oh no rule. Donna I don't wanna against his son. You know -- really appropriate archetypes are trapped under that were. And that sort of look at the have a coach versus coach called -- is something. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Gene the machine -- well oiled machine I'd really press by by it moderate and your editor the amount. I don't know but I I just need to be really remote code well. All right Terry -- cold hard football facts WEEI dot com SI dot com and the -- food and -- columnist for The Herald you can combine those two in South Beach -- not. Judicial until about seven I don't and it's well not opt out of that. -- -- -- -- -- -- Felt immediately Al and Ed explain appeared cattle imported that's a lot of automatic in -- nagged at me were you lured should be a lot of our. Were you lured into stopping at south of the border on the way down there. It could you pick a -- a bottle rockets. But I can't stop everybody viewed it Beckett I got I would. All the -- a little bit. All the signs to look south of the border. It must be like what you get what it would monitor what they remind them. Every mile and quick quick to point galactic milder tomorrow -- -- people would not if you're it is right Richard had urged -- -- I got to know before you -- to carry you just a skiing -- the fly. Like all the world and I try to fly everywhere veto -- I suspect we don't -- up again I'm gonna kinda. Our actual -- ordered held for awhile and it's got to be under George you're gonna actually had occasion a productive without.
