Moss will be a non-factor (he hasn't been healthy since 1st half of NO game).
Marcus Robinson (who?) will HAVE to have a near career day to give the Vikings a chance.
Vikings will have to rush for at least 150 yards.
Adjust passing routes to the blitz (something I think they have had some trouble doing in the past).
If the Vikings get to the "red zone", they will have to come away with touchdowns, not field goals.
I am as big a Viking fan as there is, but, I just don't feel as good about this one as I did last week. I don't think we will have to worry about Moss shakin' anything!
Philly's physical defense too much for the Vikes:
Eagles-30
Vikings-13
Dude, As much as I hate to see this type of outcome, my gut tells
me you're right on this one. When you look back on the
packer game, we only struggled in the third qtr. Three
consecutive posessions with a total of 6 yards. This is the only
time in the game that Green Bays "D" put pressure on us, and
look what it did! It's simple, when Daunte is not under
pressure, he's as good as anybody in the league. Put pressure
on him and its all over. Philly will blitz and stunt all day. You will
see McKinnie get smoked at least 6 to 8 times. With Moss at
at about 60%, we're gonna need Robinson to wake up and have
a huge day. We're gonna need turnovers again to stay in this
game. A no turnover game and its gonna be a long day.

Are you guys crazy? The vikings have the upper hand in this game. We should have won the last game and if it weren't for the mistakes in the redzone, we would have won it handley No T.O this time around,and philly has rested their starters WAY too much Vikes 27 philly 17 :argue: FROM CHEESEHEADS TO CHEESESTEAKS THIS IS THE VIKINGS YEAR

I wouldn't count on McNabb making mistakes. He only had 8 interceptions this season in nearly 500 attempts. I think Jim Johnson is going to send wave after wave of blitzes at Culpepper from every imaginable angle. I just don't see the Vikes pulling this one out. Too many things have to go wrong for the Eagles, and Andy Reid teams don't make mistakes.
