We will start with the NFL Playoffs.

Vikings Vs. Philadelphia

This is going to be a very close game. Philadelphia will be blitzing and stacking the box so AP and Chester Taylor cannot run very efficiently. Philadelphia is a very explosive team, but will not be able to run the ball with Pat Williams coming back. It will come down to the Defense and the Quarterbacks.

Prediction

Vikings 23, Philadelphia 21

Key Players: Jared Allen 2.0 Sacks, 1 TFL

Tarvaris Jackson 210 Passing Yards 2TD 1 INT

Donovan McNabb 312 Passing Yards 1TD 2 INT

Adrian Peterson 89 Yards 1 TD

 

Minnesota Vs. Carolina

Carolina is a well balanced team, and Jake Delhomme is playing great this year. Minnesota beat Carolina earlier this year but will have a tough time winning this game.

Prediction

Carolina 17, Vikings 10

Key Players: Adrian Peterson 117 yards 1 TD 2 Fumbles

Tarvaris Jackson 175 yards 0 TD 0 INT

Jake Delhomme 275 yards 1 TD 0 INT

DeAngelo Williams 46 yards 1 TD
