For the Vikings to make the 2010 Superbowl they’ll have to get past the New Orleans Saints. They have not played in the Brett Favre era, but the Vikings won their last meeting 30-27 on the road, on October 6, 2008. The Vikings managed a low 44 yards rushing and 226 yards passing, while Drew Brees and his offense passed for 320 yards with one TD pass, but two interceptions.
The Vikings got a win last week over the Dallas Cowboys 34-3, at home. QB Brett Favre was great as usual making 15 of 24 passes and threw a playoff career-high four TD passes. Not only was their offense great, but their defense was solid. Minnesota applied constant pressure on Romo, sacking him six times. The barrage of hits had an impact as Romo fumbled three times (losing two) and threw an interception, his most turnovers in a game since Week 2. If the Vikings defense can do what they did to Tony Romo, to Drew Brees, they have a good chance at making the 2010 Superbowl . The Vikings fifth ranked offense will go against the Saints 24th ranked defense. The Vikings eighth ranked pass game will eat up the Saints 24th ranked pass defense and their 12th ranked ground game will butt heads with the Saints 21st ranked rush defense, that is much improved. The Vikings are 4-4 SU on the road where they average 26ppg and allow 23.5ppg.
For the Colts to make the big dance they have to get past the NY Jets first. They last played on December 27, 2009 where the Jets beat the Colts 29-15 at home. The Jets RB’S Thomas Jones and Shonn Greene ran over the Colts 202-64 yards, while the Colts out passed the Jets 213-91 yards. QB Mark Sanchez made 12 of 19 passes for 106 yards, while the Colts QB Peyton Manning made 14 of 21 for 192 yards. The Colts beat Baltimore 20-3, at home last week. QB Peyton Manning was far from perfect, but he did an outstanding job of managing the game. With his rushing attack providing no assistance, Manning came up with clutch throws at key times and completed 30 of 44 passes for 246 yards with two TD passes.
The Colts are every bookmakers favorite, not to just make the 2010 Superbowl, but to win it. They’ll rely on the arm, and the ability to read defenses, of QB Peyton Manning. But their defense is where they’ll have to step it up . Their 25th ranked rush defense is going to get abused by the Jets league leading ground game . The Jets were never big on throwing the ball, but Jets QB Mark Sanchez is getting it done. In two playoff games he’s thrown for 282 yards with two TD passes with one interception. The Colts are 8-1 SU at home where they average 23.4ppg and allow 17.7ppg.
The Jets are the Cinderella story in this year’s playoffs having won two playoff games, on the road as roaddogs. They enter against the Colts with the league’s best defense that shutdown the high powered offense of the Chargers and the Patriots. Their constant blitzing and ability to pick off interceptions is the reason why they’ve come this far. Safety Jim Leonard pulled down his first of the season, while CB Darrelle Revis made his sixth, second in two playoff games. They lead the league against the pass and they’ll be facing the Colts second ranked pass game. The Jets are 7-3 SU on the road where they average 23.2ppg and allow 15.4ppg.
