Heading into this season, the front end of the Vikings' schedule was considered the toughest part.

Now the back end looks just as daunting...

Yeah, the second half doesn't look as easy as it did at the beginning of the season, but we'll be alright!

Where has the season gone? 6 more games left.

4-2 for nail biting photo finish with a 50 50 chance at the playoffs.

or

5-1 to pretty much lock up our playoff chances.

It will hopefully be a fun last six games, but if we want to look at this realistically it's going to be tough.

4-2 we can do...5-1 will be a stretch, but not totally out of our reach...especially if NYG will be resting their guys at the end of the season

I can't see us winning in Jacksonville, Arizona, and Detroit will get their one win against us like in 2002. Another 8-8, mediocre waste of time.

a happy ending would see childress no longer as head coach in minnesota.

**singersp** · 11-17-2008, 05:05 AM

I see us finishing 3-3 with a possibility of 4-2 if the Giants rest their starters in week 17.

We should be able to beat Jacksonville, Detroit & either Chicago or Atlanta, but not both.

Jacksonville will be a tough game, but they've only won 1 home game all season.

Giants rest their starters???
They had nothing to gain last year vs. the Pats in week 17 and played all their starters.
That probly helped them in their perfect playoff run.
Please don't forgret--the Giants actually have a very good NFL coach--and i've seen enough of Brad Childress to know Coughlin could beat him with or without starters.
Don't put much stock in the last two meetings.
Eli and the Giants gift wrapped those games for the Vikes.
Not very likely to happen again.
