VIKINGS over SAINTS

Why: The Vikings defense that’s why. I still believe the Saints defense is little more than smoke and mirrors and if Brett Favre can avoid a multi-interception game, the Vikings should have this game in the bag. If this game were played in Sota, I’d say Vikes by 13. If it were being played on a neutral field, I’d say Vikes by 10. However, even in the Superdome, I’ll say Vikings over the Saints by a score of 30-27.

COLTS over JETS

Why: The Jets are the real deal with a dominating defense and overpowering running game, however Sanchez is still a rookie and after two solid playoff games he is do for a stinker. The real reason the Colts will win however is once again “Peyton Manning”. The greatest QB of all-time will advance to his second Super Bowl; book it! Colts over Jets by a score of 23-9.

Divisional Playoff Record: 2-2 (The Jets victory was a shocker but perhaps shouldn’t have been. The Chargers have a one dimensional offense while the Jets feature a dominating defense. Defense won that game and I expect it to to be the reason why both the Colts and Vikings advance to the Super Bowl this weekend.)

Record to Date: 185-79
