Shocking-Week One

It was tough for lots of teams, not just the Vikes.

Who would have thunk-it!

What team was the biggest surprise of Week One?

Colts, Broncos, Ravens, Panthers and Rams have been seen or predicted by someone announcer as SuberBowl contenders, that I have seen

I really was surprised with the panthers. That was the one game I thought was a sure win. The second was the Stl game, I didn't expect them to lose.

shouldn't the vikes be on that poll also?

That is a given, there wouldn't be any conversation about the other teams.

Carolina. A lot of people picked them to be SB contenders.

But, do not underestimate a team with a lot of passion and heart!

I think it has to be SF over St. Louis...

I think that the STL is like the Vikes in that people are naturally scared of them and think they should win but neither of us has proven anything lately to deserve that much respect. It is the Offense of the last few years and the fire power that gets that respect.

It was definitely a surprise though. I expected that Jackson would run it at will but again, another coach abandoning the Run.

Definately NO over the Panthers, although I can't say that that's all bad. After the he** New Orleans has been through some positive news (even if it was football) was in store

I don't like the top ten topics any more, because it is so hard to get people to read the threads that drop off.

It makes it too easy to read only the top ten instead of going to the different forums.
