Down to the final four in the NFL! Many experts were saying at least one road team would win this weekend, however, most of them were picking Dallas over Minnesota, not the NY Jets over San Diego.
Of the four teams left who do you want to see in the Superbowl?
If I did my research correctly the following is a brief history of how each team has done since 1965 in conference championship games.
New Orleans Saints (0-1). This will only be the second time they have played in the conference championship game. They lost back in 2006 to Chicago (Chicago lost the Superbowl to the Indianapolis Colts). New Orleans is one of the few teams that have never played in a Superbowl. The others include Cleveland, Houston, Jacksonville and Detroit.
New York Jets (1-2). This will be thier fourth trip to the conference championship game. They were last there in 1998 losing to the Denver Broncos (Denver went on to win the Superbowl over the Atlanta Falcons). The only time the NY Jets have made it to the Superbowl they beat the heavily favored Baltimore Colts.
Indianapolis Colts (2-3). Their 2-3 record includes both the Baltimore Colts and the Indianapolis Colts.They last played for the conference Championship in 2006, they won and went on to win the Superbowl.
Minnesota Vikings (4-3). This will be the eighth time the Vikings have played for the right to go to the Superbowl (winning the first four and losing the last three). The last time they played for the conference championship was in 2000 when they lost to the New York Giants (NY went on to lose the Superbowl to the Baltimore Ravens). The last time the Vikings won the conference championship was 1976.
Please vote in the poll (look to the right side of page) for who you want to play in this years Superbowl.
Well since the Patriots are out of it (and I've been a fan since I was a kid...not since they made the supper bowl.... always been straight down the line...Red Sox- Celtics- Patriots...) anyway..
ReplyDeleteI would like to see Jets Vs Vikings- an epic battle of the QBs- old seasoned Farve and rookie Sanchez- I would like to see the Jets go all the way- but I must say Farve looked good last week.
