ROFL. 2-14 after they win their opening game. My God, dude. You really don't know how unpredictable football is.

Tennessee will be hard pressed to beat Minnesota, as will Tampa Bay and Washington, and the Lions never play well at the Dome.

Percy Harvin is not "average at best." GTFO with that. They'll get Jerome Simpson back for a deep threat and the top 4 WRs as Harvin, Simpson, Jenkins, and Aromashedu will not be that bad. Add in Kyle Rudolph and John Carlson and Ponder has quite a few receiving options.

Adrian Peterson is still the best back in the league. Arian Foster is great, but his exaggerated production is the product of a PHENOMENAL offensive line and a scheme designed specifically for his cutbacks. AP and Foster are 1a and 1b, at the most.

Christian Ponder is a good quarterback and will show it this year. How you don't think he's worth a shit is beyond me. Oh wait, you don't actually get to watch the Vikings, so your knowledge on the team is jack shit.

The secondary is improved. No more Asher Allen. A healthy Winfield and Cook with the charges dropped. This secondary is better.

Doubt them all you want. Just watch them win 7 or 8 games.

yes, they won their first game. Against Jacksonville, who I view as a Top 3 worst team in the NFL with Cleveland and St. Louis. A victory over JAC means quite little.

How will Tennessee be hard pressed versus MIN? Locker looked very comfortable in the pocket against the Patriots, and was out-throwing Brady statistically before he went down. I doubt CJ runs for 11 yards again, knowing that New England has a better run defense than Minny (BEFORE you get all pissy and stupid, I said Run D. Vikes' pass rush is better than NE's). Titans are probably gonna fight with the Jets for the 6 seed in the AFC; they are a very good team. Tamba Bay just stopped the Carolina Panthers to 10 yards running; you think AP is gonna go nuts on them? lol good one. Greg Schiano is a defensive genius (I love Schiano). Washington just beat N'Awlins, and yet while I'm not comfortable saying they are a legitimate contending team, they are good enough to beat the Vikings. And idc if Detroit "plays closely in Minnesota", it isnt even close to how much better the Lions are.


If you actually read what I said, I said all but one of your guys is average at best. The "All-But-One" refers to Percy, stupid. Who do you think im talking about, Devin Aromoshadu? lmfao. Simpson is a great athlete, and a decent #4 WR. Not a #2.

In an ideal offense, Percy should be a #2 WR. He's a #1 here.
Simpson should be a #4. He's a #2
Jenkins plays his #3, although he kinda plays #2 right now with Simpson out. Jenkins aint bad, I liked him as a Falcon. He's nothing special though.
Aromoshadu should be cut, he's plain terrible. and right now he's #3 on the DC lmao.





Lets just put this out here.... I dont even think 701 is crazy enough to think the Vikings will win 7-8 games. May he say 5? probably so. To think you have a shot of anywhere near a winning record is laughable

Predicting any team to go 0-6 in the division is stupid though. The Redskins were by far the worst team in the NFC East last year and they beat the Giants twice. I'm sure the Vikings will pull off at least one upset in their division, that doesn't mean I think they're a good team though.

FWIW, the Vikings did go 0-6 in the division last year. 4 of 6 were pretty close games though.

And the Vikings were god-awful last year. There's no reason they can't possibly be in all 6 games this year.

Also remember they played with Green Bay during Ponder's first start.

I'm aware, actually I think it supports my argument if anything. I think they'll get a game or 2 in the division, upsets happen in the NFL all the time.

I wasn't trying to poke a hole in your argument, just pointing it out. I'm not really sure why I needed to post that. Padding my post count, I guess.

Keep in mind they had that 20 point lead vs. Detroit last year and blew it. Shouldn't have happened, but I think they proved they can play with DET, granted this year both teams are "different".

Excited for Sunday's matchup with the Niners. Game was pretty close last season. Should be another good one.

The Bengals are going to be pissed, and this game is going to get ugly.

In case anyone wanted to see the ass of Jeff Backus, LMAO:



Wonder if it is because of the new Nike pants lol.

Never know, the Browns always play the Bengals tough. I hope the Bengals are ready to respond after that horrific performance that I had to endure. This was me during the game:

AJ Green is going to decimate the Browns secondary, especially without Haden playing.
