Super Bowl 44 Picks: It is the Colts and Saints in a Super Bowl showdown today at Sun Life Stadium in Miami, Florida. The big game is set to get underway at 6:25pm ET and will be televised live on CBS. Indianapolis, which comes into the championship match with an NFL best 16-2 record, is presently listed as a -4.5 against the spread favorite in SPORTSBETTING.com's Super Bowl 44 Picks.

Indianapolis marched through the regular season, winning 14 straight games before deciding to rest its starters in weeks 16Super Bowl 44 Picks and 17. The two season ending setbacks did little to derail the Colts Super Bowl momentum, though, as Indy easily disposed of Baltimore and New York in home playoff games. 

Now the Colts get a crack at the NFC's finest, going up against the 15-3 Saints for a chance to win their second Lombardi Trophy in the last four years. Count former Indianapolis Head Coach Tony Dungy among those who feel Peyton Manning and the Colts are going to do just that.

"I believe if they're (the Colts) in the game Sunday and they need a drive to win the game, he's (Manning) going to do it," Dungy said. "[But] I don't think it's going to be close."

Like Indianapolis, New Orleans stumbled into the postseason, losing its last three regular season games. The despair of those three losses was quickly eliminated in the Divisional Playoff Round as the Saints destroyed the defending NFC Champion Cardinals 45-14 at the Superdome. 

However, despite the Saints 31-28 win over the Vikings in the NFC Championship, the doubters raised their heads again, citing the abundance on Minnesota errors which resulted in New Orleans first ever Super Bowl appearance.  

The Saints, for their part, are not satisfied with just appearing in Super Bowl XLIV. According to quarterback Drew Brees, they have a few skeptics to silence and a trophy to win.

"The job is not done yet," Brees said, following New Orleans win over Minnesota. "We've got to finish it in Miami."

Super Bowl 44 Picks Betting Trend: The Saints are 7-3 against the spread and 4-6 straight up in their last 10 games as a dog with a spread between 4 and 7.5. The Colts are 5-0 straight up and against the spread in their last five games as a favorite versus an NFC South opponent.
