I hope you are right, however that 0-5 record on the road since 1992 doesnt fill me with a lot of confidence right now.


I guess we will see tommorow if our record improves to 1-5 or do we drop to 0-6???

you can't pin that record on this team

however, there is a reason you tend to have a losing record on the road in the playoffs, you are the weaker team

Yep, like Wade said last week after beating Philly in the WC game, "Now, this team can say it has NEVER LOST a playoff game."

After seeing how the Saints thumped the Cards it makes the games the Vikings lost mean less to me. This is playoff football and the Vikes will be up for the game tomorrow. The love we've been getting from the press has been nice but means absolutely nothing. I hope the team hasn't been listening to the press this week and that they remember what Romo said about how you're never as bad as they say you are and you're never as good as they say you are. If the 'boys go in with the focus and determination they had in NO then the Vikes will have their hands full all day. But if they've been listening to the press and eating the cheese and drinking the kool-aid then it will be a long day tomorrow. Here's to hoping they have their head on straight tomorrow.

Sic 'em boys!

Yea, the home teams in the playoffs are home for a reason.....they had a better record than the road teams. So naturally, if they had a better regular season record, they are usually just a better team.


Of course there are always excpetions, lets hope tommorow is one of them.:D

They're nervous too, believe that. I can honestly say I think overall the Cowboys are the better team and if both teams lay it on the line Dallas will win the game. Btw, I feel the same against anybody right now, so bring it on vikes, BRING IT ON! GO COWBOYS!!!

Am I one of the only ones that is NOT worried about the noise? I have quite a few friends that are Cowboys fans that got tickets and are going to the game.

It didn't affect us in NO and it won't affect us in MN.

I don't think the noise worries me *too* much, but it is a slight concern. Yeah, it didn't bother us in New Orleans, but we are prone to making pre-snap penalties so it doesn't help.

You know what worries me? That I'm not particularly worried about any specific matchups in this game. I just don't see them having the edge in many categories. Even Flo vs. Allen, as Allen isn't the type of rusher that typically gives Flozell trouble IMO (see: Dumervil, Elvis). I have a cautious sense of optimism heading into tomorrow, but am ready for some unexpected thing to pop up and make me go, "ah, crap." We'll see.

We have to stay committed to the run, even if it is not working early on and even if we fall behind early by 7 or 10 points.

If Garrett freaks out and starts calling pass, pass, pass, ect.......it is going to be a long day for us.
