Yeah i just saw that, its probably tice just startin out as doubtful then he will change it throughout the week.

It would not surprise me if we were without him, just rest him for another week. Although we may need him, the jags are no slouches.

As much as I hate to say it, the Vikes are not a 12-4 team. 10-6 sounds more like it, meaning we'd lose 2 more games, but 11-5 is a possibility. I think we're a year away from 12-4 (or better).

I think 11-5, we will lose one more heartbreaker (but not to the Cheese).

i am hoping for 11-5 but would not be suprised at all by 10-6 or 9-7 because my friends Moss does not play defense, but i am hopefull

I can't wait until the vikes win the rest of the games and roll their way right into the superbowl!! All you doubting Thomas'! Alright alright... I know I know... 11-5 is probably where we're going to end up... I just really really want a SB!!!!!

I'm with ya there, and I'm sure every Vikings fan is too. I really do believe our Vikes have the potential to win out. If we can take the momentum of this last win and build on it, we should be fine.

But, more than likely we will have an off game. So, 11-5 would be fine with me! Along with NFC North Champs!

I am totally with you on the hot streak to end the season...and I think that it IS possible (with Moss back at full speed AND the continued improvement of the Defense)...but I would take 9-7, get into the playoffs and THEN get hot and sweep to the Super Bowl title. In reality, I think that we are still a year away from a SB title, but I am willing to be proven wrong...PLEASE VIKES, prove me wrong and win it this year! :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers: :cheers:

I don't see the Vikes winning out. We'll whomp the Jags because we have Moss back, but I just don't see our team winning out. The Vikes will lose one more game (probably vs. Seattle), so I think we'll end the season at 11-5 with the NFC North championship. Heck, 11-5 could end up getting us home field advantage throughout the playoffs because the NFC is such a bad conference this year.

Vikes 11-5
Asspackers 10-6
Lions 8-8
Bears 7-9

I think the whole problem is we are trying to protect our D with ball control. Our players fall a sleep doing that. Also, DC plays his best in the fast paced Offense.

Exactly. And they did the same thing last year, like the game they lost in Chicago. I don't understand the reasoning behind the theory that your offense can't score too quickly because it means the defense will be back on the field. The Colts do it all the time, and the Vikings did it in 1998.
