Saints vs Vikings
Much like last weeks game this game will be about who makes the mistakes and who doesn't. To be perfectly honest, I have no worry about the Vikings defensive line. Even though they may have the best defensive line of all time, the Saints offense is built to counter a heavy pass rush. A lot of their passing plays are quick release type of plays so even if the pressure is heavy Drewbreesiana has a knack of finding is WR. Last time the Saints played the Vikings they had the genious idea of taking a tight end out and using a backup offensive lineman as the tight end. Since the Saints have a billion offensive threats they can get away with this strategy.
On the Vikings side it all depends on Brett Favre. With Adrian Peterson not playing like he should and a banged up Percy Harvin, Brett is going to have to make a lot of plays on his own. That could be huge for the Saints. Even though Brett might have had one of his best years statistically, the guy who throws reckless picks is still in there somewhere. With that and a turnover happy Saints defense I think that will ultimately be the difference.
Saints: 45-28
Colts vs Jets
I don't know what to think of this game. Part of me just wants to say that the Colts are just going to kick the shit out of the Jets and another part wants me to root for the Jets because I can't believe what they have accomplished. The Colts will win this game because Peyton Manning is the best qb that has ever lived. (yes I changed my mind about him) Carson Palmer and Phillip Rivers can't handle the heavy blitz attack of the Jets, Manning can and will. This game will not be pretty.
Colts: 35-10
