Around SBN: SB Nation NFL Power Rankings for Week 11

Prediction for 2009 season

 

Opening day 2009. paul brown stadium. a monumental day in beloved purple history, former sworn enemy, now resurging QB, Brett Favre makes his regular season debut against a team that struggled most of last season and has yet to make a Qb decision this season.  he will walk in the game nervous as a first grader in in a new school. his palms will sweat, his teammates will ask him repeatley "you ready", the crowd will roar and #4 will walk out on the field for the coin toss along with 28 and probably hutch and time will come now for a great game. it wont be a complete blowout but the over all weopons in our offense will break the defense of this browns team. Adrian will not be stopped and harvins blinding speed will leave cleveland defenders only with there necks cocked backwars trying to see where the smoke trails from( and no not from what u think). i will say that the personell around brett will carry him farther than he will carry us. his great experiance to use thoses players is what will seperate him from the other qbs on our roster. he will be good enough to have a 58% completion and and a touchdown pass this game but his over all nervousness i think might get the better of him. a decent performance to say the least. The Defense is gonig to be dominant. i know it is preseason but up through the 2 games, we've had the #1 rushing,passing defense in the league. EJs return plus new youth at safety to help play the run( cause we know johnson likes to hit), with how much cleveland will wanna run its gonna be a long day for jamal lewis. i mean come on is brady quinn really gonna win the game. Despite All SCHISMS from training camp we will win that first game and set a trail to the playoffs and beyond. I say we will finish 12-4( possible losses from, PIT, BAL, NYG,CAR,ARZ, Green Gay, and the lil' cubbies) really any team is a possible loss in the nfl, but those 7 are our real comp. likely scenario we split with lil' cubbies and green gay(good NFC north Division this year only team that might get swept is ... you guessed it the Lions), beat baltimore( Ray Rays is not a young man no more, dont expect him to hang with AP, And flacco you and that reliable run game meet the front seven.) ,lose to pit( i just feel like we will be burnt out at this point 5/8 games in the first half of the season are on the road and that is just tiring, and if your gonna lose one why not to the super bowl champs), beat carolina, but Arizona and Ny i am unsure of. i wanna say we lose to arizona and beat the giants but some how i feel it will be oppisite in hopes that we are resting starters that last game.

Trying to read this post...

makes my eyes bleed.

Please for the love of baby Jesus, learn to use paragraphs and proper captialization.

That being said, my predictions are:
Vikings 12-4
Packers 10-6
Bears 9-7
Lions 6-10

I am fine with no capitalization, poor punctuation, bad grammar etc. But paragraphs make or break your post.

Most won’t even read it much like when someone uses all caps.

Wiping purple blood from my eyes...

I read bits and pieces of it, enough to get the gist. I think.

What Bjorno said.

Oh. Vikes will pull either 11-5 or 12-4, with or without Favre. Favre’s impact will come in the post-season.

Ah, ah,
We come from the land of the ice and snow,
From the midnight sun where the hot springs blow.
The hammer of the gods will drive our ships to new lands,
To fight the horde, singing and crying: Valhalla, I am coming!
SKOL!

I would have to Vote 12-4 with Tjack or Sage at the helm and 11-4 with Favre.

But at the bye, we will likely be 7-1 with Favre and 6-2 with Tjack or Sage.

Maybe it's just too early...

But 12-4 or 11-4? Maybe you meant 11-5? Or did I miss something?

8 - 8

     It has to be 8-8 or worse. If Favre stays healthy and Peterson goes down it will be one of the longest seasons ever for the Vikes. Not even a healthy Peterson can make up for Favre’s inaccuracy . If by some blessed miracle he realizes he is to old early on then we could still take the division.

by yfoogace on Aug 29, 2009 8:15 PM CDT reply actions   0 recs

8-8?

The only way that would happen is if AP went down, and Allen. I think somewhere around 10-11 wins is what will end up happening.

I am sorry guys. i didnt know the paragraph thing was so huge. but any ways. i honestly can not see us going eight and eight. i mean it is possible for a favre meltdown seeing is how our second half schedule is about a hard as the first half
