my prediction:
24-20 Vikes.
we win cause sharper gets two picks in the second half and takes one to the house.

ron brown gets 38 yards on the ground with 1 TD.
Harington moves the ball well all game but keeps throwing INT's.

Not sure but before that pick you would have to have 17 points and I am not sure if your O can score that many, especially on the road in MIA. I see another 17-10 or 20-13 game with the Fins coming out on top.

I hope the Vikings run right at Jason Taylor,no matter where he lines up.



Anything to slow down his pass rush. I don't want to see our QB get killed.






I can't believe Harrington will be consistent enough to win with the pass,so if they can slow down Ronnie Brown, (a big IF, he's a big,strong runner) the Vikings could make a game of it.

Too bad Fumblepepper won't be in there to turn the ball over a couple of times,that would have been great.

Oh god cut me a break. They need to quit their crying. He screwed us over and made the bad blood with the team. It's not like we kicked him out of Minnesota for no reason and he wants revenge.

Smoot on injury report
Thursday, November 16th, 2006

Fred Smoot, who returned to the Vikings this week after missing Sunday’s game because of the death of his brother, has been added to the injury report as questionable. The cornerback missed at least a portion of today’s practice because of a groin injury.

Smoot has declined to speak to reporters since returning to the Vikings on Monday and it’s unclear when he was injured, although it must have been at some point in Wednesday’s practice. Defensive coordinator Mike Tomlin said this morning that it, “remains to be seen,” whether Smoot will start Sunday at Miami.

“He’s out here working of course,” Tomlin said. “He’s going through the grieving process I’m sure but he is a professional. He’s been here every day and getting ready to go. I would expect him to step up and play football. But we’ll see.”

The Vikings made no other changes on the injury report, meaning six other players remain questionable. That includes receiver Marcus Robinson (lower back); linebacker Napoleon Harris (wrist); running back Chester Taylor (calf); cornerback Cedric Griffin (foot); linebacker E.J. Henderson (hamstring); and left guard Steve Hutchinson (knee).

If Smoot doesn’t start, Cedric Griffin will be used in his place. There is always the possibility the Vikings could start Griffin and use Smoot in the nickel role. Tomlin said if Smoot starts, Griffin will move back into the full-time role in the nickel. That means Ronyell Whitaker only will play on special teams.

[size=13pt]The Call: Moving the ball against Miami's defense[/size]

The Vikings, who have lost three games in a row, figure to have a tough time moving the ball against Miami's defense, either on the ground or in the air.
