Amendial's Championship Weekend Predictions!

New York Jets @ Indiancrapolis CBS 2:00 pm Sunday
Two weeks ago Jets coach Rex Ryan made a bold statement saying the Jets should be considered the favorites to win the superbowl. It seemed far fetched at the time, but maybe not so far fetched now right? That's a matter of opinion. The Colts are comming in with the best regular season record in the league, just two games shy of a perfect season. Peyton Manning is have his usual type of season, leading the Colts offense to touchdown after touchdown, and giving the Colts punter little to no work. The big question in this game is going to be about the Colts defense going against the Jets offense. The formula to beating the Colts is simple: Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, and go ahead and run somemore. Work the clock and keep Manning on the bench. The Ravens had no success at doing that last week and that is why they lost. The NY Jets are hoping to ride a rookie QB to the superbowl, a feat that has never been done before. Trust me guys it will not happen this week. This is about as much of a sure bet game as you get. My Prediction: Indy by 17
Minnesota @ New Orleans Fox 5:40pm Sunday
Old school vs new school. Brett Farve is trying to lead the Vikings to an amazing 5th NFC championship, while Drew Brees is trying to send the Saints to the superbowl for the first time. This is a matchup of the NFC two most dominate teams, a true case of number one vs number two. The difference in this game could clearly be the Minnesota defense. They have a chance to take over a dominate this game. Darren Sharper is not only facing an old teamate of several years, but also an old team of his. Sharper might just know a little bit about what makes Farve mistake prone, he could bait him into a couple bad throws. Farve has a history of making mistake, but this is definitely not a history repeats itself kind of season for Farve. Seven int's all year, in almost every other season Farve had this many by the seventh of eighth game. The X factor in this game is going to be the New Orleans defense vs All Day Peterson. If AP starts to run all over the place, it is game over; but if the Saints D can make the Vikings one dimensional then they could end up winning this one. My predicition: Saints by 4.

im going with Indy and the Vikes, for some reason..i just have a feeling that the Vikes are going to play like they can. Their D actually showed up vs. Dallas, and since the Saints havent played a D yet in the playoffs. if the Vikes can bring the pressure like we know they can, and the Viking running game is a factor then i see a Viking win.
going with the Vikes by 3.
no prediction on the Colts score, since ill be a nervous wreck...i think im already getting a cold-sore worrying about it.

The Saints havn't played D in the playoffs? A week after putting up 50 on Green Bay the Cardinals managed only 17 points. The Saints completely shut down the Cardinals, not sure how you can say they didn't play D last weekend. I just have a feeling the Saints are going to win that game. Minnesota has played great at home all season, but in the big games on the road they have struggled, I do not see why this weekend will be an different.

Yeah, I'm not too sure if the 'aints have been putting up points because they can, or because of the competition yet...so I'm staying away from this game.

Hey this is my thread, if I want to read it differently than you typed it, then that is my right! Lol, I am just going to say that the horrible Cardinals D, did a pretty good job of shutting down Farve and the Vikings a month ago.

Much better week this week. Got both games right and was only off by 4 on the Colts game, and 1 on the Saints game.

How did the Saints respond to playing against "a D", only 31 points.

This just means that the Super Bowl should have LOTS of offense.

I wouldn't be surprised to see a repeat of the Arizona Green Bay wildcard team. I thought the Colts did a poor job against Sanchez today. Jets missed two field goals and drove the ball down the field several other times in addition to scoring 17. Saints did not play much better on defense, but they were going against the second ranked offense.
