Vikings winning is more good news

[goshan]

Because they play the Falcons in 3 weeks in Minnesota.
Need to make sure they have something to play for.

This gives Atlanta three tough games - Saints, Bucs and Vikes. I think/hope they will lose two of those and finish 10-6.

Then our losses if any need to be out of conference.

If we (dal, atl) both finish 10-6, 7-5 in conference, what is the tie breaker?
Being realistic, this is a definite possibility.

The Vikings are one team that are peaking at the right time-after a terrible start, they've won 6/8.

Jared Allen...Wow...you talk about a BEAST! Philly dangled Lito and a draft pick to KC for him in the offseason, glad it didn't fall through!

Sorry to break it to everyone, but Chris Collinsworth just said the Vikes' 2 monster DTs, Kevin and Pat Williams, will likely be suspended for the remainder of the season for violating the NFL's substance abuse rules.

Atlanta's a running team-they could have a field day against them if this happens.

Tiebreaker would be common games. Right now in common games they're 1-2 and we're 3-1. They play Tampa again and we play Philly again.

So, if we both finished 10-6, 7-5 in conference, we'd have the tiebreaker. I think that's right.

While that is true, that idiot also said we were on the outside looking in at the playoffs. Aren't we the #6 seed?

Even Michaels and Madden were talking about it during the game. This was the first I've heard about it, but I don't think they're idiots either.

We WERE the #6 seed for around 3 days

The NFC has definitely gotten tougher, that's for sure. It wouldn't surprise me if an 11-5 team bites the dust this year.

Adrian Peterson is the best...

So I take it he's not an idiot because he was correct that we're on the outside looking in at this point?
