Vikings - 30

The Jets are good, but clearly they've overachieved in my opinion. But who really cares about fancy storylines when you're playing in the AFC Championship. They deserve to be there and they're going to give Manning and Co. all they can handle and then some. The ever-present Darrelle Revis shutting down everything wearing a blue jersey and a healthy dose of Kerry Rhodes blitzing off the edges will shake the Colts up early in the game and give the Jets a confidence boost before we reach half-time.

I'm calling for an epic upset.

Jets 24
Colts 13


In the NFC this is the match-up many saw coming for most of the season. The Vikings will be impervious to the crowd noise in N'awlins. The Reggie Bush from last week won't show up this week and Drew Brees will have to carry the offense most of the way. On the other side of the ball, Adrian Peterson, who has seemed to lose his mojo recently, will show up and thrash the Colts to the tune of 150 yards rushing.

Vikings 30
Saints 21

I really want to see a JETS vs Vikings Superbowl.

The Colts should and quite possibly will destroy the Jets. I like the Jets story, but I don't think they can gon into Indy and beat Peyton Manning and the Colts. I am a big Peyton fan the dude is a gamer, works hard to be the best, and doesn't take it for granted. He appreciates the game and is a student of football. This guy has way to much passion and love for football for me to dislike him. ( Eli can suk it btw ) The best chance for the Jets to win is to knock him out of the game.

The Saints Vikes game is a toss up. Either team can win. I am not making a prediction only to say that this has the makings to be a great NFC Championship game. Both of these teams are very evenly matched. It is hard to find differences for me. They both have alot of offensive weapons. They both have great QBs. There defenses are both good. I kinda see the Vikes having the better unit, but I am biased to the Vikes dline and lbs being more of a factor in them being able to win. They need to pressure Brees from the get go. The Saints have a better coverage unit. I just can't pick it.

I'll say Vikes by a fg in the end.

I haven't paid a ton of attention to injuries but I think the Vikings are pretty beat up right meow. One of the Williams didn't practice much and neither did their end (opposite Allen). Also Winfield still doesn't look 100% which really leaves that secondary pretty mediocre.

I think if the Saints line can protect Brees enough so he only takes a few hits this game is over early in the 3rd qtr.

I just didn't know if it was intentional.

I looked up Favre's stats versus a Gregg Williams defense. In 1998 when GB played the Tennesee Oilers, Favre was incredible (142 passer rating). The last 3 games vs. a GW defense however, not so good (2 touchdowns, 7 interceptions). This coupled with Sharper's knowledge of personnel on Minnesota's D could spell trouble for the Vikes.

Guys, I can't view the other posts in the thread I started. What gives? Are my setting off or my browser?

Why did they run 7 seconds off the clock before the 2 minuted warning? The saints called timeout at 2:07 and then when they returned to the field the clock went to the 2 minute warning.
