There are just four teams left now in the hunt for the 2010 Super Bowl. Minnesota travel to New Orleans to compete for the NFC Title while the Colts host the Jets, who beat them in week sixteen of the regular season and upset the heavily favoured San Diego Chargers in the last round.
NFL Divisional Playoffs – Dallas Cowboys vs Minnesota Vikings
Dallas travel to Minnesota tonight in arguable the most eagerly anticipated game of the playoffs so far. Both teams won their divisions but Minnesota's record of 12-4 was slightly better than Dallas' 11-5, earning them a first round bye. The Cowboys may be the more confident of the two, however, as they have now won four games in a row, including two shut-outs and back-to-back blow-outs of a strong Philadelphia Eagles team.
NFL Week Seventeen betting – New York Giants vs Minnesota Vikings
Minnesota host New York tonight in a game neither side needs to win in terms of the post-season. Minnesota at 11-4 has locked up the NFC North title for the second year in a row but New York are out of the play-offs for the first time since 2004, having gone 8-7 to possess the best record outside the Wild Card spots. However, Minnesota may rest some of their key players and this could lead to an upset, as New York has no reason to do so.
NFL Week Nine betting odds – Green Bay Packers vs Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tampa Bay host Green Bay in week nine of the NFL season still hoping to win their first game. At 0-7, the Bucs are a sorry sight but have had a bye week to recover from their 35-7 loss in London to New England in week seven. Green Bay have had a mixed season. They sit at 4-3 but will be looking to bounce back from last week's defeat to Packers legend Brett Favre and the Minnesota Vikings.

NFL Week Five Betting – Minnesota Vikings vs St Louis Rams
Week five of the NFL season sees the St Louis Rams host the Minnesota Vikings.

St Louis have not started the season with such momentum, losing all four of their games and last week suffering a spirit-crushing 35-0 defeat against San Francisco.
