Championship weekend

Fireman Ed is the best fan in the NFL, so this is just another chance to put him in my blog. Love the J-E-T-S Jets, Jets, Jets chant.

Jets at Colts: I have picked against the Jets every game in these playoffs. Will I pick against them again? Well they have almost everything I like. Great defense, great running game, good coach. They are a confident bunch and who can blame them. I think it would be funny if the Jets knocked the Colts out because in week 16 the Colts had a chance to knock the Jets out and they didn't do it. It would be a little ironic. The Colts D is questionable and their running game is also. You would think I would be rolling with the Jets, but the Colts have Peyton Manning. The single most important, most dangerous player in the league. Maybe ever. Honestly I am happy with either of these teams winning. I am going to stick with my pattern (its been good luck for the Jets) and pick against the Jets. I will pick the Colts 24-14. However, I do think that if the Jets D can make Peyton turn it over a couple of times and Mark Sanchez does not turn it over they have a very good shot. I still will take the Colts although Reggie Wayne will be lost on Revis Island. Dallas Clark and Austin Collie are the X-factors.

Vikings at Saints: The Vikings seem to have the better defense. That said they are not the same at home. I like the Saints offense and although I still like the Vikes D over the Saints, I think the home field makes the difference. The key matchup will be former teammates, Brett Favre vs. Darren Sharper. If the Saints jump out early it is over. If the Vikes jump out over, the Saints can comeback. There is not as much intrigue in this game to me. I like Drew Brees more than Favre and I like the Saints 31-23.
