With Super Bowl XLIV or plainly just go back to using 44 in South Florida merely few days away to go, it has never been too early to start reflecting on all the probable matchups, with all their interesting storylines. Taking in the scope of the complete 12-team playoff field, in any case while it lasts, here is a simple sample prediction of the top 10 hoped-for Super pairings. First is Jets vs. Packers, these are the two former Brett Favre's who will meet in the Super Bowl, but he is not there. Second is Chargers vs. Saints, The Drew Brees Bowl, it will be a battle of the Brees against Philip Rivers, the quarterback who substituted him in San Diego, would be the primary storyline of the game.
Third is the Colts vs. Vikings, Will this be an exhibition matchup? It will be Peyton Manning versus Brett Favre. This may be a journalist item for a real article write up. Fourth is Chargers vs. Cowboys, Wade Phillips was picked up by Jerry Jones in the early 2007 as his head coach and the other choice would have been Norv Turner for the job. Both Phillips and Turner have cached three different NFL teams but have not ever won in a Super Bowl. This will be a Vindication Bowl. Firth is Saints vs. Colts, It is every Manning for himself on the Super Bowl, especially with Peyton playing against Archie, his fathers former team. Sixth Jets vs. Vikings, Favre will face the team he made that 2008 cameo role. Most probably by now the Jets fans have forgiven him for tanking at the season end and in the process getting New York's head coach fired.
Seventh Jets vs. Vikings, it will be very interesting to see Rex Ryan the New York head coach seeking revenge against the team that fired Buddy Ryan his father after being winless for three straight playoff trips from 1988-90. Eight is Saints vs. Patriots, the Saints were blown out in Week 12 and surely the Patriots would love to try again and stop the team that beat them in the Superdome. NIneth is Ravens vs. Eagles, a great match up between coaches, the mentor and the protégé. It will be Coach Andy Reid against John Harbaugh his former assistant in the Eagles. Last is Colts vs. Cowboys, this will be a remake of the Blooper Bowl, Super Bowl V which should be forgotten, this is a pairing that makes the top list of Super Bowls worst-played. Now you can make a pick on the Super Bowl 44 Matchups.
