Playoffs: Divisional Recap
The playoffs are upon us and what have we learned…Brett Favre can still play showing he can throw tds and run up the stats. Peyton Manning wanted Baltimore to know one thing…the myth is sooo wrong. Rex Ryan is a prophet as he told us in the beginning of the year that the Jets are a Superbowl contender. The Saints are who we thought they were showing Arizona to the door.
Arizona Cardinals vs New Orlean Saints
Reggie Bush danced around defenders who fell over each other trying to tackle him. Drew Brees was back to passing with pinpoint accuracy, picking apart a beleaguered and depleted Arizona secondary. A little rest was all the Saints needed to shift their league-leading offense back into overdrive. That, and a visit from Arizona’s porous defense. Brees threw three touchdown passes, Bush scored on an 83-yard punt return and a spectacular 46-yard run, and New Orleans overwhelmed the defending NFC champion Cardinals 45-14 in their divisional playoff game Saturday.
Baltimore Ravens vs Indianapolis Colts
Peyton Manning beat the Ravens and buried a myth. Say goodbye to the bye-week blues. In his first game since winning an unprecedented fourth NFL MVP award, Manning threw for two touchdowns Saturday night in the Indianapolis Colts 20-3 victory over the Baltimore Ravens. The decisive win came after a playoff bye, something that had been a plague, not a respite, for Manning and his teammates. “I don’t think it matters if you’ve had a bye or you’re playing home or away,” Manning said when asked about Indy’s previous 0-3 record after sitting out the wild-card round. “This myth that you can’t win after a bye week, I haven’t believed in it.”
New York Jets vs San Diego Chargers
The rookie coach who declared his team Super Bowl favorites after he figured out they were still in the playoffs, is just a game away from being hailed for his psychic powers. His Jets are still playing. Rookies Mark Sanchez and Shonn Greene led New York to a stunning 17-14 upset of San Diego in the divisional playoffs Sunday, each providing a touchdown in the fourth quarter that marked another Chargers postseason pratfall.
Dallas Cowboys vs Minnesota Vikings
For the adrenaline rush. For the in-your-face touchdown. For another shot at the Super Bowl. Brett Favre wanted all of it, and now he’s got it. Four—count ‘em, four—touchdown passes from Minnesota’s 40-year-old quarterback sent the Vikings to the NFC championship game with a determined 34-3 rout of the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday.
Brett Favre – The Kid Inside
For the entire 2009 regular season and into 2010 we haven’t talked about the story that everyone else has in exhaustion. The main reason is that we really had nothing more to add. Now however, after his marvelous performance against the Dallas Cowboys, Favre has led the Minnesota Vikings to the NFC Championship game, and we are going to talk about him and the passion that won’t go away!
