My Superbowl Wine Picks & Pairings

There's 2 halves so we have 2 wine picks for the 2016 Superbowl. How will they fair?
Anytime you talk football there is also food involved.  So the menu at the moment for the game is:

• Smoked Baby Back Ribs
• Chili
• Bean Salad
• Jalapeno popper dip
• Cheese and crackers

I would usually prepare more, but there will most likely be only 2 of us watching the game together. Perhaps we'll have others, but at the moment as I write this it's just Paul and I.
Wine Picks: I picked out a a Zinfandel and a Malbec.  Why, because I think they pair well with what I'm serving. To me a Malbec and Zin are perfect football wines.  They go with spice, they go with meet and they go with cheese.  They are my two go to for BBQ's.
