Manning is due. Bears keep it close for awhile, but Colts pull away for a three-TD win.

What does this mean? "Manning is due."

Oh, OK then let's not play the games.

Sorry; I just hate that terminology. "He'll win because well . . .he's DUE!"

Bullshirt. If they win because they're better on the day, then good for them. But no one is "due."

Gee, my bad. Saying "he's due" means, in my opinion, that he's finally there. The pressure is off. He's a great QB on a great team, and they could have a field day.

You obviously have never handicapped a horse race. No horse is ever "due" to win.

Well, it's not like the league is crawling with a bunch of white-helmet teams.

Colts
Cardinals
Dolphins
Jets (but only recently after 20+ years in the horsebleep green)
Titans

Used to be white:
Eagles
Bucs
Patriots
Bills
Chargers

Any that I'm missing?

Can't really give any credence to a white lid curse. Not after that Super Bowl V debacle. A blue jersey curse for the Cowboys, that I can believe. The 28-0 bitchslapping of the Rams in the 1977 NFC Championship game notwithstanding.
