AFC Championship: (http://www.dandssports.com/2010/01/afc-championship-preview.html)
At first glance, a Jets and Colts matchup for the Super Bowl doesn't exactly excite me. I knew from the minute the Jets eliminated the Chargers, I would have to talk myself into this being an exciting matchup. Luckily for me, it will be easier to talk myself into this rather than talking myself into liking Chan Gailey as the Bills Head Coach.
Last week, the Colts eliminated the Ravens with the same kind of boring precision that allowed them to go 14-0 before throwing away their perfect season in the last two weeks. I credit this to myself for changing my pick to favor Baltimore at the last second. I obviously have the magic touch. With only three games remaining in the postseason, I think I'm officially going for the 0-11 record. I was in Detroit this past weekend and even made the point of riding the Detroit People Mover across town so I could see Ford Field. When attempting a winless record, I have to pull out all the stops. I wish I was kidding but I'm really not.
NFC Championship: (http://www.dandssports.com/2010/01/nfc-championship-preview.html)
The two highest powered offenses in the league will meet up on Sunday as the Minnesota Vikings head to New Orleans to take on the Saints for the right to advance to the Super Bowl. The Vikings were efficient on offense in dispatching of the Dallas Cowboys last weekend, but it was the defense that proved most impressive. They held Dallas to just 3 points and 248 total yards en route to a 34-3 victory. Brett Favre continued his terrific season by throwing 4 TD passes, including 3 to his new favorite target, Sidney Rice. Adrian Peterson continued to struggle however, managing just 63 yards on 26 carries, numbers that have to be at least a little concerning to Vikings fans.
