AFC/NFC Championship predictions


lets start with the first game first. The AFC game between the Colts and the Jets. Nobody but the Jets and Rex Ryan thought that they could have made it this far. I knew that i thought Rex Ryan was crazy when he said that his team was the best in the playoffs. I thought that they wouldn't even get past the wild card game. Now they are here in the AFC championship game. The Colts, well I fully expected them to be here. I also expected them to be undefeated at this point, but for some reason the coaches thought that they would make the players and all the fans mad by taking the starters out of the week 16 game. This game should be very exciting even though I think that the Colts are a huge favorite. They have a lot of talent and want this year to end with a trophy and huge rings so bad that they are going to make it happen. The way that Peyton Manning, a veteran quarterback, takes over the game and leads his team to victory compared to Mark Sanchez, a rookie, kind of just goes along with things is the difference. The quarterback position is meant to be a position of leadership and it isn't with the Jets and that might cost them. That is why I am picking the Colts to win.

The NFC championship game will also have to do with the leadership of the quarterback. This time, though the match-up is a little more even. Still there is a favorite between the two. Would you pick Brett Favre or Drew Brees. This year some people might have picked Drew Brees, but if you know Brett in the playoffs and so far this year in the playoffs, he has really stepped it up as a leader. The thing that I love about the Vikings is that they have a great running back in Adrian Peterson, probably the best in the league. They also have one of the best quarterbacks ever, Brett Favre. When you have a great running game and a great quarterback that gives you so many play action options that just makes you dominant. That is why I am picking the Vikings to win.
