Well, we're down to the last two weeks.Three more games and I go back to the doghouse for the year. 

Last week, I was 2-2.  Nobody saw the Jets coming, so I don't feel bad about picking the Chargers.  I, did however drink the Cardinals kool-aid.  Unfortunately, I found out that I've drunk out of toilets that tasted better than that.

For the year, I'm 129-64.

Before I offer this weeks nuggets of wisdom,  I'd like to remind you about those poor people in Haiti.  That's a bad deal with the earthquake and all and if you can find it in your heart to donate a couple of bucks, the best place to do so is here.  I wanted to donate the fat dog, but with the food shortages there and all, they wouldn't take him. 

Now, on with the countdown.  Two games, straight up:

NY J-E-T-S Jets, Jets, Jets vs. Indianapolis Colts:  Ironically, enough this was the matchup in Super Bowl III when the Jets and Joe Willie upset the favored Colts in the final AFL-NFL Super Bowl. That's the only Super Bowl the Jets have ever been to.  Things were different back then.  The Colts played in Baltimore where they snuck out in the middle of the night in 1984.  Why anyone would want to go live in a cornfield is beyond me, but that's what they did.  But I digress. 

The Jets seem to have destiny on their side. Their defense is very tough and their ability to control the clock is pretty stout.  They are an old fashioned smash mouth football team that grinds, grinds, grinds.  Meanwhile the Colts don't have to grind.  Peyton Manning can score whenever he wants to and is probably the best quarterback in football.  The key is if the Jets secondary can shut down the Colts wide receivers.  Earlier this year, the Colts were beating the Jets when Colts coach Jim Caldwell pulled out the starters and the Colts let someone named Painter get waxed by the Jets who won the game.  This time it won't be so easy.  I admire the Jets moxie, but I think the Colts have the weapons on their side.  Take Indy.

Minnesota vs. New Orleans: Lutefisk vs. craw fish, you make the call.  This game is a tough one to pick as you can argue both sides for both teams.  The Vikings and Saints have great offenses.  Both have good defenses.  Both have great quarterbacks and skilled players.  So, where or what is the advantage in this one?  The offensive lines.  I think the Vikings o-line will be better at protecting Brett Favre against New Orleans front four than New Orleans will against the Vikings d-line.  If the Vikings running game gets shut down, Favre still has plenty of talented weapons.  Drew Brees does too, not as talented as the Vikings.  The NFL's dream matchup for the Super Bowl is Favre vs. Manning, so why should deny them their dream.  Take Minnesota.
