Viking Playoff Thread

[Bretto]

Yeah I was hoping someone else would want to do that 8).
But I guess I will see what I can do.

The rest of the Schedule is cake compared to the schedules of Atlanta, Carolina, & Philadelphia.
The Jets, Flackers, and Rams are definitely winnable games, but so were the 49ers, Bills, and first go around with Favre.

The Vikings are killing me with losing the really winnable games this season & I though I am optimistic about the final 3, I will not allow myself to become overconfident.
I found myself overconfident playing GB at home, NE at home, and during both bears games...all loses.

All I can add is pull it together Brads, keep the Defense off the damn field so much, catch the Ball Troy, Marcus & run like hell Artose, Chester, whoever!

End this freakin 7-9, 8-8, burying your own Playoff shot trend!

seriously.. we'll let philly, dallas, new york, atlanta, carolina, and new orleans beat each other up..

they will win and lose some enough so that our next four necessary wins will put us in as a wild card..

ugh.. it comes down to the basic thing, when we do all this end of the season math "he needs to win, they need to lose or tie, etc..."

WIN FOOTBALL GAMES!

I don't want to be negative, but I don't think the Vikes will win their last 3 games and get the wildcard spot.. They have let us fans down all season long, what makes anyone think that will change now? It would be nice to see them make it, but lets face it, if they did make it they would be 1 and done.. They just haven't played solid enough football on a weekly basis to make me think they have a shot at anything..

That's what makes us Viking fans!

I know you love the Vikes as much as the next guy ... but you are one of THOSE Vikings fans that drives me nuts. So many, "hey, that's the Vikings" guys who always think negatively and never give the team a chance.
Honestly, I like wa VikesFan ... so I am not trying to blast you, but loosen up and see the real chance that they have and pull for it. Who knows what could happen in the weak NFC playoffs with the fourth best defense in the NFL taking the field? Keep some optimism ... it makes the day so much brighter.

The vikings will probably not make the playoffs.


It is possible & they may do it but is isn't the most probable outcome.
Now that is not being negative, it is being honest.
Look at the current situation honestly and tell me it is likely that the vikings will be in the playoffs.
Now had he said "I hope they lose because of X", that's being negative.
What he said was on the mark, the vikes still have yet to show they can play well as a team consistently.
I'm sure all the folks on this board WANT the vikes to go to the playoffs but the simple fact is that our chances just aren't very good.

The Vikings are fine. We have the league right were we want them.
