Im still curbing my enthusiasm re: #2 seed, but holy nards do I want Da//Min

Stupid play call.

 

[Jimz31]

Those o-linemen were terrible in trying to fool the d-linemen there on that screen.....

 

[zeroburrito]

is peterson even average?

 

[Jimz31]

Wow...Vikings haven't scored in over 61 minutes....old age taking effect.

AP's gotta be getting mad at Favre for checking away from run all the time the past month or so....actually, he's been doing that all year...NO WAY would I want Favre as an OC!

holy schnikes! will the giants show up next week though? and green bay needs to beat arizona

Giants are a proud team, and could show up to atleast atone for that shalacking they took yesterday. They'll be sure to be reminded all week in the NY media.

Green Bay/Arizona... that game is a toss up, but Green bay is playing well enough to do it.

This is the game right here that sets everything up. It has been very favorable so far,


I think if Minny loses tonight, they lose the 2 seed next week...they need this game in a bad way to generate some playoff momentum because they look so far like a team that has peaked too soon.

this is a very pivital game. It'd be a hell of a swerve for us so I'm just waiting, it'd be nice though to get what is rightfully ours the last week of the season:starspin

if minny loses this and wins next week...would you rather beat the eagles next week and play them again or lose to the eagles and play the vikings?

And we'll go into our game knowing the result of NYG @ Min. If NYG beats Min, then us beating the Eagles might give us the 2nd seed or it might have us hosting the Packers in round 1.

OTOH, if Minny wins the early game vs NYG, then we'll be playing against the Eagles knowing that a win GUARANTEES us a home rematch with Philly the following week.

(assuming bears win tonight)

ANOTHER 3 and out!

Serious chinks in that O and D line of MN.

 

[Jimz31]

Just watch that push the Bears are getting on the runs....

 

[GOLDENCHILD1688]

this offensive line is giving favre no time. he has no where to go with the ball

if the giants actually show up next week and try to play they have a shot with minny line playing like this

everyone is going to blame favre for this and act like hes playing poorly. but can he do when his guys up front are getting killed.

i wouldnt mind minny in the first rd at all.

their pass defense is also looking how it did for the last several seasons. they were never great vs the pass

 

[Jimz31]

That hit gave the WR an extra 2-3 yards there....

 

[Bob Sacamano]

btw, Jerry's crappy reason for not drafting WRs is looking pretty stupid

guys like Johnny Knox are owning

 

[DEZBRYANT x88x]

Man I think its Us and the Iggles looking like the beasts of the NFC.

 

[Jimz31]

Run it and then kick it.....argh....OK....just get the FG.....

 

[GOLDENCHILD1688]

what the hell was lovie smith doing there?

over 20 seconds left and you just settle for a fg?

your offense is playing well, cutler is on fire. take another shot you idiot

SMH

 

[Jimz31]

Gould is money....

 

[kmp77]

Yessss! FG good.

 

[xWraithx]

boys, I've come in late

who do we want to win and why?

 

[NickZepp]

Once December comes around Brett Farve plays bad. Everyone wants to talk about Dallas' December swoon but Farve's decembers haven't been that good either. You won't hear that on ESPN.

Owning what? seriously? Johnny Knox has been ok but nothing special so I don't see why this makes Jerry's reason crappy for not drafting WR's.
