With Super Bowl XLIV or just re-using 44 in South Florida just days away, it’s never been too early to start mulling all the potential matchups, with all their interesting stories. Taking the scope of the entire 12-team playoff field, in any case while it lasts, here’s a simple sample prediction of the top 10 expected Super matchups. First up is Jets vs. Packers, these are the two ex-Brett Favres who will meet in the Super Bowl, but he’s not here. The second is Chargers vs. Santos, the Drew Brees Bowl, will be a battle of the Brees against Philip Rivers, the quarterback who replaced him in San Diego, would be the main plot of the game.

In third place is the Colts vs. Vikings, will this be an exhibition duel? It will be Peyton Manning against Brett Favre. This may be a newspaper article for a real article. The fourth is Chargers vs. Cowboys, Wade Phillips was chosen by Jerry Jones in early 2007 as their head coach and the other choice would have been Norv Turner for the job. Both Phillips and Turner have saved three different NFL teams, but have never won a Super Bowl. This will be a Bowl of Vindication. Firth is Santos vs. Colts, it’s every Manning to himself in the Super Bowl, especially with Peyton playing against Archie, his father’s former team. Sixth Jets vs. Vikings, Favre will face the team he built in that 2008 cameo. Chances are by now Jets fans have forgiven him for collapsing late in the season and in the process getting the Jets head coach fired. NY.

Seventh Jets vs. Vikings, it will be very interesting to see Rex Ryan, the head coach of New York, seeking revenge against the team that fired Buddy Ryan, his father, after going winless for three consecutive trips to the playoffs between 1988 and 1990. Eight is Saints vs. Patriots, the Saints were crushed in Week 12 and surely the Patriots would love to try again and stop the team that beat them in the Superdome. NINTH is Ravens vs. Eagles, a great duel between coaches, the mentor and the protégé. It will be coach Andy Reid against John Harbaugh, his former assistant on the Eagles. The last one is Colts vs. Cowboys this is going to be a new take on the Blooper Bowl, the Super Bowl V to be forgotten, this is a pairing that makes the main list of worst played Super Bowls. You can now make a choice in Super Bowl 44 matchups.
