The official line, last I heard, is Colts by 7, which seems pretty reasonable. I think the teams are more evenly matched than that, but the Super Bowl line always tends to be high because there have been so many blowouts over the years.
I would pick the Colts to win straight-up, but not against the spread. I think this is going to be a very good game. The marquee matchup is Colts offense vs. Bears defense. I think the Bears will keep the Colts offense under control, and hold them to 20-24 points. This defense is not what it was earlier in the season, but they are still good and if they cause a few turnovers the Bears could win this game.
The more unpredictable matchup is Bears offense vs. Colts defense. Will Grossman throw four TD's, four interceptions, or maybe both? Will the Colts continue to play well against the run? This will be a lot of fun to watch. The Colts safety, Bob Sanders, has been their X factor in the playoffs, and he will come up with another good game on Sunday to help his team win. But it should be close, and a lot of fun to watch.
What's everyone else thinking about this game?
