Sunday Games Open Thread

PrintSince the only game that matters this week doesn't kick off until 7:30 pm Central tomorrow, here's a place for everyone to discuss the rest of the games that will be played in the National Football League today. The only other game of concern to the NFC North will be in the Windy City, as the Chicago Bears will host the Detroit Lions.
And, as mentioned earlier, don't forget to check out Twinkie Town for the best discussion of the final day of baseball's regular season. There will be plenty of scoreboard watching being done this afternoon, as the Twins try to make some magic on the day of the Metrodome's final regular season Major League Baseball game by beating the Kansas City Royals. If the Twins can win today, they'll either win the American League Central (if Detroit finishes their collapse by losing to the Chicago White Sox) or host the Tigers on Tuesday afternoon in a one-game playoff to determine who will face the New York Yankees in the first round of the American League Playoffs.

What games do everyone have
I got the Bears/Lions snoozefest, and the Ravens/Pats game. Guess i am not going be watching much fox today.
Jared Allen is to football what Jason Voorhees is to Lake Crystal.
Percy Harvin is Devin Hester, except someone very smart decided to teach him how to catch and run routes.
Me too
Then Rams 49’ers at 3.
It may take a village to raise a child, but it takes a Viking to raze a village.

Lions TD set up by questionable penalty

Lions take an early lead
1-yard touchdown run by Kevin Smith and a Hanson extra point makes it 7-0.
Drive was helped by a face mask call on Alex Brown. . .not surprising, since those are the sorts of things the Chicago defense is known for.

And now tied
As Chicago’s whining, crybaby quarterback takes it in from seven yards out. No word on whether or not his uterus was bruised on the hit he took.

Very little defense being played in Chicago

Lions lead again
Touchdown pass from Stafford to TE Will Heller, and the Lions are just pimp-slapping Chicago’s defense up one side of Soldier Field and down the other.
14-7, Lions, 5:03 left in the first quarter.

I was in a Bears bar watching the Vikes last week!
As the Bear fans were piling in and seeing the score of the game in the last couple minutes, they were all happy and crowing about the eminent Viking loss. A couple looked at me in my purple and asked in a snooty way “You’re not a Bears fan?”
I said to them “I was 2 weeks ago. Where were you then?”
That was the last time they spoke to me!!!
Baseball Update
Jason Kubel with a three-run homer to put the Twins up 3-0, bottom of the first.
The White Sox, on the other hand, are not cooperating, as they trail the Tigers 4-0 in the bottom of the 5th.
The Lions have a 3rd and 6 in the Chicago red zone with 1:07 left before halftime, trailing 21-14.

And another dinger
Delmon Young adds a solo blast, and it’s now 4-0 Twins.
Certainly starting to look like Game 163 for the Twins for the second straight year.

Hope
They can pull this one out this year. Young has been on fire, along with Kubel and Cuddyer.

Lions tie it up again
Kevin Smith with a 3-yard TD run to cap a 98-yard drive.
Hanson’s extra point makes it 21-21.

Tigers beat White Sox
5-3
Twins need to beat the Royals to force a playoff. They’re ahead 7-1 in the top of the 5th thanks to two three-run homers by Jason Kubel and a solo blast from Delmon Young.

Looks like a Tuesday game in the Dome.
It may take a village to raise a child, but it takes a Viking to raze a village.
To all the idiots
who were kissing the Niners ass after last week’s victory by us, check out the game in progress vs. the Rams today. The Niners stink and will fall today as I predicted! Stay tuned.
The game they're currently winning?
Really. . .you’re going to have to do better than that.

i am here to ask what was it you said about the niners? that they were gonna lose to the Rams? 49ERS 35 RAMS 0
looks like you were wrong buddy nice try saying we aren’t a good team
good luck to the rest of you on Monday night

I'm glad the niners can beat up on a bottom feeder
If they couldn’t, that would make the Vikings look really pathetic. The Vikings probably should have lost last week. The 49ers had the ball with less than 2:00 minutes to play in the fourth quarter and a lead. The Vikes outplayed them at the start of the game, but really filled the field with mediocrity for large portions of the rest of the game.

All we got out herre on the west coast was Raiders-Texans, Colts-Seahwaks, and 49ers-Rams(not sure of the second CBS game). The Niners game was so much fun to watch after picking up their D as a Bye week fill in. 3 TD’s baby!
Go Nevada Wolf Pack!
Some interesting games today
Denver over Dallas?? I really thought Denver was just 3-0 cause of the teams they’ve faced but they might be the real deal.
Pats over Ravens. That Ravens defense just isn’t the same. The Pats look to be getting their groove back more and more on offense. Their oline looks to be declining a bit though.
Saints over Jets. I was pulling for the Jets to win cause I’ve been talking them up but today proved to be too much for Sanchez. How about Sharper with a 99 yard pick 6? He is having a great year so far.
Jags over Titans. In convincing fashion. What the hell is going on with Tenn? I mean they have had some tough losses but they got blown out today by what looks to be an average Jax team. Collins with 3 picks, and wasn’t able to do anything the whole game really. Is Vince Young going to get his chance sometime soon?
Haha and lastly I want to talk about the 49ers. In both my fantasy football leagues I faced their defense today. They scored 39 points!! In terms that some of you non-fantasy football players can appreciate, 39 points would be AP rushing for 210 yards and 3 TDs. (Or Rodgers having 400 passing yards, 5 TDs, and 30 rushing yards. Yes I had to do it).
games here today were
…..cinn-cleve and wash-tb first games…what a bunch of losers !!!! I get to see local crap here every week..cinn, cleve, wash and pitt games..rarely get to see Vikings on local tv…So I go to sports bar just abt every week. At least they have lil speakers where u can listen to any game u want…..I AM SOOOOOOOEXCITED ABT TONITES GAME !!!! GOOOOOOOO VIKINGS !!!!!!!!!!
Just be glad you haven't lived in a Bay Area market
The last couple years of every Raiders and Niners game I think has lowered my IQ. We watch the Raiders games to figure out how long we can count their 1st round busts going back, all playing on the same play for the offense. At least the 49ers are competitive this year. Also, we are getting a lot more Minny games than past years, I thank AP for this.
Go Nevada Wolf Pack!

Well Hello GUYS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The SUPERBOWL is only 3 and a half hours away!!!!!!!!!!!! O wait this isnt the superbowl :(
Well it might as well be because everybody and their mothers been talking about this game since the Agust 18th and the smart people we’re talking about since the schedule came out. I’m as excited as I’ve ever been for a Viking game and it really has no nothing to do with a certain number (4). It’s more because A) ITS THE PACKERS FOR GODS SAKE! B) Todays the game where AD just acts like a grenade and explodes the Packers Defense. C) A certain former packer plays against them (Ryan Longwell). D) It’s MONDAY NIGHT FOOTBALL! E) Last but certainly not least its the VIKINGS for GODS SAKE, The best team in the league. Well I hope all you guys are as fired up as me if not more. I hope that everyone will be able to tune it to tonights game. I will c u guys later tonight.
