| Date: | 16 October 2011 |
Location: | Chicago, IL |
| Time: | 7:20 PM Central | Stadium: | Soldier Field |
| TV: | NBC | Know Thy Enemy: | Windy City Gridiron |
| Gonzo's Prediction: | Vikings 20, Bears 17 | ||
| Final Score: | Bears 39, Vikings 10 | ||
Yep, after a full afternoon of meaningless football, we finally get to the one game that actually means something. We're an hour and a half from kickoff, so let's take a look at what needs to happen for the Vikings to walk out of Soldier Field with a victory for just the second time in eleven years.
1) Run, run, and run some more - Yes, the Bears are starting two brand-new safeties in this one, but with as bad as Minnesota's passing offense has been, that might not matter a whole lot. What will matter, however, is the way that Minnesota attacks Chicago's rush defense. Going into this week of play, the Vikings have the third-best rushing offense in the National Football League, averaging 160 yards/game and 5.4 yards/carry. Chicago, on the other hand, has struggled to defend the run, ranking 28th in the NFL in that category with 135.4 points/game allowed and allowing opponents to average 5.7 yards/carry against them. Yes, Adrian Peterson is going to be the key to this, obviously, but with the way the Vikings should be pounding the football tonight, Toby Gerhart should get some touches in this one as well.
2) Stop. . .or at least slow down. . .Matt Forte - This season, Forte has basically been the Chicago offense. Coming into this week, he was the sixth-leading rusher in the NFL, but he was also the Bears' leader in receptions. By far. How far? Through the first five games of the season, Forte has more receptions than Johnny Knox and Devin Hester combined (30 catches for Forte, 14 for Knox, 12 for Hester). Undrafted rookie Dane Sanzenbacher. . .and, if you don't know what school he went to, Ted will tell you. . .is actually second on the Bears in receptions with 16. Now, we know that the Vikings are very good against defending the run (fourth-best in the NFL in rush yards allowed/game and allowing just 3.3 yards/carry), but as we saw in the San Diego game, a back like Forte could kill the Vikings on short passes underneath. You can bet that Fred Pagac will know where Forte is at all times and try to figure out a way to stop him.
3) Bring the heat on Jay Cutler - Entering this week of play, the Vikings were second in the National Football League in sacks with 16, trailing only the New York Giants in that category. Defensive ends Jared Allen and Brian Robison have been playing out of their minds during the first five games, and Kevin Williams has remained strong since his return from his bogus two-game suspension. The Bears are shuffling some parts on their offensive line, including starting a new tackle across from Robison in Lance Louis, and long-time stalwart Olin Kreutz is no longer in the middle of the Chicago line to act as a stabilizing force. Granted, Kreutz isn't excelling in New Orleans or anything, but his influence was probably quite helpful last season when Mike Tice got that line to steadily improve as the season progressed. If the Vikings can get pressure on Jay Cutler with the front four and hit him a few times, they can leave more players back in coverage and make things even harder on the Chicago offense.
We've been waiting all day for Sunday night, ladies and gentlemen. Let's hope that the purple and gold can make our wait worthwhile.
SKOLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL VIKINGS!!!!

Peppers is starting. There may be something to that “payback for Favre’s status last year” rumor.
I'm back guys
Here to give some of my down south luck along. I thought for a while I wouldn’t be welcomed considering what happened in 98, but then I remembered Puckett’s HR in 91 and I guess that would make us even.
Anyways, best of luck guys. Hopefully we get a glimpse of Ponder. Thanks for having me.

SKOL VIKINGS!
In one of my fantasy leagues, I am tied.
He’s got Forte left. I have Adrian left. I like my chances. I give myself a 70% chance for a victory.

Is it a PPR league? If it is, I think Forte might get you, but AP will definitely rush for more
Putting Ponder in isn't the question, it's the answer.
SKOL!!!
Nope. Pretty basic scoring.
No bonus points until 100 yards rushing OR receiving. You get 3 pts. at 100 yds. and an additional point every 25 yds. after that. No penalty for a fumble.
It is a 22 year old “old school” league.

But honestly though, you have to give Cutler some props for last week..he was making plays out of absolutely nothing..and when he didn’t get killed because of his line, his receivers dropped easy catches. With that being said, I hope Robison takes old Jay to Jared.

I'm down by 35 in my fantasy football..
Only have 2 players left, Adrian Peterson and Lance Briggs..AP should either be breaking a big one or getting tackled by Mr. Briggs.
RIght, so what you mean to say is that AD is going to get 201 yards, 2TD's and a happy ending from a cheerleader at the half.

Packers might actually be down a DB next week
Sam Shields intercepted Bradford in the end zone and thought it would be cute to run around the end zone like a dumb ass waiting for something to open up, so Brandon Gibson thought it would be an even better idea to light him up for it.
Was a hell of a hit for a wide receiver.

And our inability to actually INTERCEPT ANYTHING continues to kill us..
Along with nice penalties like that one. \:(
I really don’t understand why they’re still playing McNabb. He’s awful, and he’s not going to get any better. Why not put Ponder (or even Webb) in?

he needs to sit for a bit collect his thoughts and come out stronger.
Putting Ponder in isn't the question, it's the answer.
Yeah, because that worked so well for him in the past few games
Just sit him permanently and find a better player. He’s a joke.
coming off two knee surgeries
It’s not surprising if he wears down this year.
He needs more rest and he’ll be back next year.
It is time for him to move to safety though.

Great the D is already demotivated and getting tired in the 1st
If Ponder doesn’t see the field this half to put some kind of spark in this will be a massive blowout.
Look at it this way
At least Frazier is so much better than Childress.
Or is he?
The Bears were complaining about the bad turf at Soldier Field
Wait until McNabb blasts a couple dozen more porholes into it with his dirtballs.
Our defense is toast
And we have no offense or special teams.

Stop trying to defend him, seriously.
Yes, Peterson didn’t properly block Urlacher, but it was McNabb who went down in the endzone well before Urlacher even got to him. And then he finally realized he was going to get a safety after he was down and tried moving the ball out.
This is the same guy who didn’t know regular season games could end in ties, and then thought playoff games could.

"Other than that, Mrs. Lincoln, how was the play?"
Before kickoff, I went in to a grocery store in Iowa City.
There were plenty of Bear fans around, of course. There were also some Packer fans out. (They sprouted up last February like mushrooms after a rain.)
Anyhow, not one but two Packer fans wished us luck tonight. So, we suck and everything, but at least the Vikings are sort of screwing the Packers over a little bit.
Oh, and the Tigers are not going to the World Series. And the Lions lost today. The Brewers are probably done tonight, too.

Only legit starters that we have left
Allen, Robison, and Greenway. The other 8 are inadequate and/or past their prime (Sorry, KWill). Winfield is still a starter but he isn’t playing and should move to safety anyway. Griff needs more time to recuperate and rehab and should switch to safety too.

Unfortunately McNabb will not be benched at halftime
Here is why, He is 13 of 17 passing for 122 yards. Two of those incompletions were bad drops. The safety can be partially blamed on the whole fair catch thing. McNabb actually is playing halfway decent today. Our coaches are being gutless, they won’t bench him till he is completely terrible.
I want him gone, but I don’t see it happening…

Wow...
Come on Vikes, show something! I guess we STILL haven’t paid for 2009. Potentially the last season as the “Minnesota” Vikings and they do this to us, we deserve a hell of a lot better, guys.

Thank god my lady and I didn't get tickets to this game...
It’s our 2 year anniversary today, considered heading to Soldier Field fro this game. Thank god we didn’t do that. What a waste of money this would have been…
Then again, i’d probably be in jail right now, after having taken out Musgrave on the sideline and trying to take his place calling plays….

I’m sick of having to watch the last, sad, few seconds of hall of fame quarterbacks
oh come on, we are only down by 23 points...and you know how well we adjust at the half.
warcraft, you are my guitar hero !!!
on draw play before half.
any qb with a fucking spine would have said fuck that shit, we got to take a shot we’re down 3 scores and audible into a play with even the slimmest of chances to score. McNabb didn’t. Bench him, play ponder. Trade the 1st pick in the draft for a kings ransom. that’s assuming the colts win a game this season, which may not happen.
We're getting out coached and out played
It’s as simple as that
"Skol Vikings! Let's win this game Skol Vikings!
les is overmatched at this level...not head coach material at all...
he makes chilly look like vince lombardi
at least put ponder in in the second half…we need to see what he’s got.
Shit, even if we kick it deep
The way our kicking game has been so far… It might end up only going about 10 yards down the field…

And to think I gave up watching the X-Factor for this
"Skol Vikings! Let's win this game Skol Vikings!
Well OF COURSE the Bears get the ball first in the second half
Thanks for reminding us, NBC.

you didn' t finish that statement.
The team should contract the same thugs that Tonya Harding used, the target being McNabb and Berrian.

Do we have a home game next week?
I can’t imagine the booing if McNabb comes out. Unless he does something amazing in the next 30 minutes, our offense isn’t going to be able to hear McNabb over the boos.
by HammeroftheGods on Oct 16, 2011 9:01 PM CDT reply actions
Yep...
We’ve got Green Bay at home…
May as well chalk up another loss…
by Eric The Viking on Oct 16, 2011 9:01 PM CDT up reply actions
OK fine....
… don’t care about that. Want to see Webb or Ponder come in and make some positive plays. If we play them close and lose, and see some of our young QB’s do something to give hope, then I won’t be pissed if they lose.
If McNabb starts and this happens again, it’ll just be totally depressing.

Is there seriously any way we can just concede defeat...
And not actually have to play a second half?

FUCK ME AND FUCK MINNESOTA SPORTS
And fuck Wisconsin.
Fuck Chicago too.

seriously why cant we beat the bears?
Who said life was fair?
When I find that person I'll beat the hell out of him
Thought I Knew
Being a New York Mets fan, I thought I knew the definition of Suck. This Vikings team is biggest pathetic pieces of shit I have ever seen. I’m hoping Lawrence Taylor comes in for the Bears. Was thinking of wiping my ass with my Vikings jersey, but what did my ass do to deserve that? Imagine what the Packers will do to us. Fuck the Vikings and Fuck You Leslie. At least the baseball game is exciting

right now, I doubt
if the jersey can keep the crap from touching your hand

Better to trade for promising backups than veteran starter castoffs
Acquiring McNabb was a mistake. Bruce Gradkowski would have been a better choice…and cheaper.
Perhaps now we'll have a paradigm shift!

With Coach Zorro on our side, we will slice opponents to ribbons. Tim Tebow gives me hope and I already have faith and charity in my heart! I see a propitious future rife with Lombardis for our Broncos!

Longwell needs to get his ass chewed for that
Or the Special Teams coach.
