Power Rankings link

cbs.sportsline power rankings --- Vikings are the main topic of the article. It does ask a good question: who here believes Tampa Bay will have a better record than Minnesota at the end of the season?

If you look at the actual rankings their comment is some bull shit.

ya good question, but come on raiders ahead of us? and the panthers who lost to the saints as well...some unfair judgement...they base most of it off our offense not our new kick butt D. ahh screw em, we'll show em this sunday!

I know, I know and they're going to keep saying it until the Vikings but a string of wins together. It's not blind love --- we KNOW the Vikes are better.

The Raiders were ranked 8 before the season started --- that's crazy considering they don't even look like the favorite in their own division (SD, Den, KC all ranked below them in week 1).

The key words there are upset victories. Minnesota lost 4 & Okland gained 4. Hmmm! media b@sturds.

it's better to be the underdog...
plus we have to earn it...we did not play our best this past weekend...(that's the metaphorical 'we', I sat on my bum eating nachos)...

Ya very true. But oakland damn well didnt play thier best last week either....but I do like being a underdog

I'd much rather be the under dog. We were so favored and expected so much, a simple loss in week 1 has destroyed the confidence of many Viking fans. Lets go out there and show them who the Vikings are this week!!! :evil:
