Lil Wayne Makes His NFL Playoffs Prediction

Lil Wayne

Everyone knows rapper Lil Wayne is an avid sports fan, and recently he spoke about his playoff predictions. Check it out below and let us know what you think down in the comments.

Of course Lil Wayne has infinite love for his hometown of New Orleans. He’s shouted out his city in his songs, he performs there often and Weezy is generous in giving back to the community. But this weekend when the New Orleans Saints host the Minnesota Vikings in the NFC Championship game, The Cash Money/ Young Money Millionaire will not be pulling for Drew Brees, Reggie Bush (Wayne name-checks on the Birdman’s “Money to Blow”), and the rest of team Black and Gold. See, Wayne’s favorite player, Brett Favre, plays for the visitors.

“I’m rooting for Brett because I’m a diehard,” Weezy explained to us early Thursday (January 21). A signed Favre football is one of the prize possessions in Weezy’s extensive sports memorabilia collection. As for who the dynamic performer thinks will win the game, Wayne — who’s appeared on ESPN a few times to talk sports — gave his analysis from an unbiased standpoint. Minnesota has a superior ground game and defense in his opinion.

“I believe the Vikings will win because of the running attack,” Wayne assessed. “The Saints give up about 150 rushing yards a game, and the Vikings have arguably the best running back in the game [Adrian Peterson]. … I believe the Vikings defense will frustrate Brees.”

The New Orleans Saints and the Minnesota Vikings have a 6:40 p.m. kickoff time on Sunday evening. The winner goes to the Super Bowl, where they will play the victor of Sunday’s Indianapolis Colts/ New York Jets game.

Last week, a handful of hip-hop stars, including Jay-Z, Fabolous and Jermaine Dupri, offered their Super Bowl predictions. All three were wrong in picking the Cowboys to represent the NFC. Meanwhile, Jay-Z and Fabolous still have a shot to see their teams from the AFC go to the big dance. Jay picked the Jets, while Fab is a fan of the Colts.

  13. Vikings vs. Colts

    Colts 35-21

    Peyton Manning is the man. He can’t be stopped, but I would like to see him and the Colts face the crazy Viking Defense.

  14. Peyton Manning got this

  15. SUPER BOWL 44:

    COLTS – SAINTS

    Manning’s goin for that second ring, watch out..

    Colts shouldn’t even be worried about the Jets on Sunday, anybody who says they ended our streak is 100% ignorant considering we were up 5 and then put in all second-string O line and D line after half-time for the rest of the game, GIVING the Jets a spot in the Playoffs. And anybody who thinks the Jets DIDN’T get lucky by beating the Chargers is also ignorant. If Kaeding woulda made ONE out of his THREE FG’s then the game would have gone into OT.

    “We brought you into these Playoffs, we sure as hell will take you out of them just as easily.”

    Saints – Vikings gonna be a good match-up though, hope the Saints play us in the big game.
