Vikes vs. Bucs

At first, I was a little concerned about this game. The Bucs have always played us well, especially with their defense. However, there will be one HUGE mismatch in this game. The Bucs offensive line will most likely have three first time starters on it by the time the season starts. Our D-Line, which in my opinion is one of the best in the league, should have a field-day with these guys. Griese, who I have always thought was a good QB, will have no time to throw the ball and when he does get it out, our CB's will be able to hold coverage for the two or three seconds Griese will have before he's swarmed and dropped for a sack. Gotta love it!!

Our defense needs time to Gel so I don't think it would be a blow out plus bucks have a real good defense also. I think we'll win the game 20 to 13 or something like that.

It will be like 28 to 14 I think. Something like that. Tampa shouldn't be to tough for us to beat.

Clayton is goin to be a good reciever but i think antoine can cover his azz. who is their number two reciever?

I think Vikings win 24-14. Our D needs time to gel, which it should by week 3. Like vikesfan said, their O-line is very young. Our D-line is going to dominate that game. I think each of our starters will have a sack that game.
