Week 12 Early Game Discussion

by Christopher Gates on Nov 29, 2009 10:24 AM CST in NFL

Yes, the Beloved Purple don't play until 3:15 this afternoon, but not all football has stopped in the meantime, as there are still some early games on to watch.

Unfortunately, most of the games that the Vikings need to keep an eye on for playoff positioning have either already occurred or will occur later on. The Packers, Cowboys, and Giants played on Thanksgiving. . .the Saints don't host the Patriots until tomorrow night. . .the Arizona Cardinals take on the Titans at the same time we're playing.

But if you're watching the early games, feel free to discuss them with your fellow Viking fans here. The game thread will be up about an hour and a half prior to kickoff, as per usual.

I got Phi/Was and Indy/Hou

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.

Cardinals

I heard Warner woke up woozy today so he might not play. Good news for us.

If you can get your hands on the ball you should be able to catch it no matter what!

Real Madrid-Barcelona at noon.

Should be a doozy.

Media in Chicago has been apologetic of the Bears all week. They’re priming the fans for a loss. It’s a thing of beauty.

Andre Johnson gets a TD but its ruled incomplete

and Kubiak challenges the play. Looks like a TD to me. Should be 20-0 (Pending PAT) Texans on top of Colts.
