Super Bowl???

Ok, this past Sunday and Saturday we all saw two great games. Well...depends on who you are a fan of I guess. Dallas played so well in order to get into the playoffs (played Philly twice) and then they sank. After getting the first playoff win in years and the first ever playoff win for Romo the Cowboys looked as if they never showed up last week. Sorry Dallas fans, but as a Giants fan I must smile and say "bye bye".
The Saints came into the their came ever so ready. The Saints proved all their doubters wrong by creaming their opponent. Maybe the Saints were just saving all of their energy for the playoffs and did not mind at all that they did not "finish strong". Drew Brees and the Saints definately have a hard game to play this Sunday though....Favre and the Vikings.
Yes, Favre and the Vikings. Does that sound weird or what? Just think about how all those Packers fans must hurt to see their QB who they have loved for years in a purple uniform instead of green and yellow. Favre may be 40 years old and the oldest starting QB in the playoffs, but do not let his age fool you...this guy still has it! He can still keep a play alive and do that move to the right as he waits for a man to get open....how can he throw so accurate on the move? I will never know.
The Vikings vs the Saints will be a game that you do not want to miss. Brees and Bush vs Favre and Peterson. As well as the Saints are playing I must go with Favre and the Vikings. Game will be extremely close and may even go into overtime. Two great QBs so we shall see which one marches into Florida in a few weeks.

Moving on to the Jets vs the Colts. The Jets vs the Colts is the game I am looking forward to the most. The team I wanted to win since the start of the playoffs has been the Jets. So many just laughed and said they could not do it, but the Jets have and they will do it. Read an article 2 days ago on how the Jets reminded the author of the NY Giants when they went to and won their Super Bowl....ummmm didn't I mention that in a previous blog? :) The Jets already beat the Colts earlier this year and one may argue that the Colts did not have their starters in during the entire game. Ok, true; however, what was the score even when the starters were in the game?
The Colts have the home field advantage for this championship game. The Colts played well in their last playoff game and have played well in the past. Manning has become one of the greatest QBs in the NFL and he is dangerous. He plays the game hard and always wants to do his best. Look for Manning to be on top of his game as he prepares to battle the Jets defense.
Jets vs the Colts will be a closer game than people think. In reality the Colts do not have any home field advantage because the Jets have played well on the road. The Jets are looking at the NY Giants and saying that they too can do what the Giants did...head to the Super Bowl and win it! So Sanchez and the Jets vs. Manning and the Colts....rookie vs. the Senior. Another close game for these two with the winner not being named until down to the wire. Battle of field goals in this game I think.
Well, enjoy the games!! Playoffs!!! GOOOO JETS!!!!!!!
