I know you aren't very bright, but this is one of the most uneducated comments I've seen in quite some time.Pats. Simply because their defense is so much better. I just think Pats have more depth that the Colts do. Also, more experience.

The pats defense is "so much better"? The Colts have allowed 14.6 points per game, 2nd least in the league.
"Also, more experience." Umm... What? Their offensive leaders (minus Brady), such as Randy Moss, Laurence Maroney, Wes Welker and Donte Stallworth are fairly new to the team and haven't experienced anything, none of them being with the Pats for their superbowls.
How can you say that ANY team in the league has more experience than the Colts? They are the super bowl champions... On offense, their only new additions are Anthony Gonzalez (a 3rd/4th string WR) and a new offensive lineman.
With that said, I like the Colts here... I'll agree that if the two teams played regular season games 100 times, the Pats would likely win 55-65 of them... But thing is, Maroney has been playing badly, and that won't change against a great Colts defense... Tom Brady will be rushed by the beast ends, Freeney and Mathis, and be forced to make tight throws, where Bob Sanders will be there to deny... Defensivly, the Patriots are good, but they have trouble stopping teams that run the ball well, as the Colts do with Addai and Keith...
In the two games that the Patriots gave up over 20 points, it was to teams with great run games... The Dallas Cowboys, with Julius Jones and Marion Barber, and the Dolphins, with Ronnie Brown, who was the 2nd best runningback in the league before his injury.
The Colts have the better D, better running game, better kicker and more experience, which is why I have them winning.
