Vikings win in good fashion, 35 to 24.

I dont actually expect this to happen but I had to up Rice stats because i'm starting him as my third receiver.

We win, and everyone complains that there's less complainers.

When the Vikes win, if TJ has a QB rating of 59.... I'll still be complaining.

If the Vikes win 10 games and make the playoffs, if TJ has a QB rating below 70, I'll STILL be complaining that if he was a better QB the Vikes could have won 13 or 14 and had home field throughout.

My predictions:
tjack - 13/28 165 yards 1 td 1 int
6 for 46 yds rushing,
a 62 QB rating which is much better than the 49, I do have optomism
berrian - 2 rec, 45 yards
Rice- 2 rec, 20 yards, 1 td.
Mills and Shank - 7 rec, 87 yards
yes, the TE's will catch more and gain more than all WR's again
AP - 23 att, 134 yards, 2 rec for 22
1 td.
chester taylor -
8 att, 28 yards
j allen - 1 sacks, 3 tackles.
k & p will - 3 tackles by the line, 12 tackles

manning - 34/42 365 yards, 3 td
addai - 12 att, 36 yds
2 rec for 32
clark - 8 rec for 42, 2 td
wayne - 11 rec, 132 yds, 1 td
harrison - 9 rec 78 yds
gonzalaes - 3 rec 34 yds
robinson - 1 rec for 6

Vikings > Colts

**gagarr** · 09-13-2008, 04:18 PM

The greater the ratio between TJ's pass attempts to RB run attempts the less chance of winning.

Good examples are:
Atlanta game: 23/24 result W 24 - 3
Detroit game: 24/34
result W
42 - 10
Giants game: 12/34
result W 42 - 17

Washington game: 41/16 result L 21 -32
Denver game: 31/23 result L 19 - 22
Last MNF GB: 35/24 result L 19-24

TJ will not win games with his arm or legs, his job is only to give an option to running the ball.
Currently it is a bad, but necessary option.
