Here's for some optimism

For about ten minutes after watching the Packers piss away the game, I was thinking that all these crazy things like the blocked field goal, the coin bumping off Urlacher to give them the ball, were signs that this year, was going to be just like every other year, where the vikes get close, but no cigar.  But after cooling off, let's think about it.  WE have the leagues best running back, who will not let his worst game as a pro bring this team down, I really believe that.  We have a young athletic quarterback that has played lights out these past two games, and an improving defense.  We just need the fans to jack up the place sunday, and AD will take this team over, that's just the kinda player we need him to be.  And let's face it, if we can't win in these situations, then we don't deserve to be in the playoffs.  So in light of all these things that have gone horribly wrong this week, we have to remember that we still control our destiny.  Win and in, Lose and we're out.  Screw the packers, screw the bears, this is our division, and I feel a win coming this week

We Can Do It!

I’ve said it before; IF we don’t turn the ball over, and IF our special teams show up, we can beat the Giants no matter how many people they sit. We seem to have Eli’s # in the passing game, and we have the ability to grind it out or light it up.

We just can’t shoot ourselves in the foot again.

GO VIKES!!!

Agreed

The Division Title is the Vikings’ to lose. There’s no question that they’re the best team in the NFC North, it’s up to them to make official.

My confidence was low after last night

But I’m back to normal

It’s alright to be a positive Vikings fan once in a while. Makes more sense than useless crying.

GOOD POST!

Last Week..

brought the team back down to earth. I believe that the Arizona game was too easy for them and they got overconfident. For everything that happened to them against the Falcons, they were still in a position to win in the end. Some of the other posters on this site have said this and I agree…NOBODY wants to play the Vikings in the playoffs. We are the one team capable of running the table regardless of what the network pinheads say. The only thing left to do is go out and get the job done.
