NFL Play-Offs

In the NFC Championship game you have the Minnesota Vikings versus the New Orleans Saints. This is going to be a great game. The Vikings are ranked number 2 and the Saints are ranked number 1 in the NFC conference. The Vikings will continue to win if they can stop the run and continue passing the ball with Brett Favre, like he has been. The Saints will win if they can stop the passing game of the Vikes and continue to run the ball. However, with the Williams in the middle of the line for the Vikes I find the running game for the Saints to be very difficult. Vikings win 42-35.
In the AFC Championship game you have the 1st ranked INdianapolis Colts versus the 5th ranked New York Jets. This game is just like the other game... either team can win. The Jets will win if they can continue the running game that got them this far, and if Darrelle Revis continue's stopping the pass along with the rest of the Jets secondary. The COlts will win this game if they can stop the run and continue to pass the ball like crazy. However, the Colts allowed the Jets to get this far by allowing to be beaten by the Jets in week 15, where Curtis Painter was under center in place of Peyton Mannning. All in all, the Indianapolis Colts come out on top with a score of 45-28.
Both of these games will be great games. All four teams have the ability to win. However, I think that the two winners, the Vikings and the Colts, will come down to who has the most experience. Peyton Manning and that Colts defense, and Brett Favre under center with that great defensive line anchored by the Williams'.
