NFL Championship Games

The NFL Championship week is here. It's time for the Colts and the Saints to move on to the Super Bowl. I know there's a lot of hype around the Jets - half of it because they are from New York. But the Colts will take care of them easily. There's no defense that can stop Peyton Manning. Your only shot is slowing him down and have your offense match him pass for pass. The Jets can't do that. They don't move the ball consistently enough to bother the Colts. Plus their defense is a little overrated and the Colts D might be a little underrated. The only shot the Jets have is if Shonn Greene goes nuts. Unlikely to happen tomorrow. I don't think the Colts are going to miss 3 field goals either to help the Jets.

The Saints-Vikings game on the other hand should be a fun one, though I pick the home team on this one too. The Saints D is pretty decent and Favre has to be near perfect to stay in this one. Of course Favre has been just that this season, but this is obviously the toughest challenge to day. And Prince's stupid fight song might have jinxed them forever. I am hoping this game is a good one and not a blowout. I am kinda tired of all the blowouts this NFL playoff season. The Viking are legit though with Favre and All-Day and a good defense to back those 2 up. The only downside for me with the Saints is that some fools are starting to hype up Reggie Bush a little too much. Lets make no mistake, it's Brees's show all the way.
