Guess who was in Green Bay today for his long-awaited return. He did an end run around the league to get there, but he finally made it. The Vikings walked into Lambeau sporting a 6-1 record, the one loss coming from the only winning team next to GB (and let’s face it, their wins were against garbage) they faced, the Steelers. Then go back and look at who it is the Vikings have played, and that list won’t impress you too much either. By the time they end their season, the last game with the Giants, who were rocked again, and are tumbling fast, they’ll probably lose two more games on the 3rd easiest schedule in all of the NFL. Then, my prediction is, one and out of the playoffs. If you’ve got to battle the Saints in the playoffs, it’s all over but the cryin’. They almost let the Pack into this one, and they’ve got a habit of doing this. S.F., remember that one? Then Baltimore, a FG and there’s another loss, so don’t get too excited about this Purple bunch, when they’ve got to play the upper echelon of the league, if we can even find them anymore, they will fall.
Steve D pointed out during the game, that not one breakaway to another game occurred during the Pack-Vikes game, and I said, you’re right, I didn’t see it. Tennessee’s Chris Johnson had 228 yards and 2 TD’s today, one for 89 yards, but you had to read the ticker to get those stats, you weren’t getting it during the All Favre, All the Time game, nope! Here’s a question for you. Favre supposedly has a bad hip right? Okay, so explain to me how he turned on and off his limp in between plays, but when Berrian scored he jumped up and down 6 times, then ran into the end zone and not only picked Berrian up, he walked him about 5 feet. Must be that on and off kind of arthritis, or it was the Vicodin was kicking in.
Let’s look at the setup for today’s game too. At noon we had Berman saying, by three pm we’ll know if he’ll be the starter…huh? Oh, let’s pave the way for IF they’re losing he can come out, keep his record intact for consecutive starts, OR, if he wins, he’s frickin’ SUPERMAN…get ready, by 11 tonight you’ll be tossing your dinner from all the pats on the back he’s going to get…right into next week’s BYE WEEK and let’s not forget the next battle coming up for Minnesota. After they “rest” on the bye week, they get to sleep in their own beds for the next three home games, and good thing, they’ve got Det, Sea, and Chi. That’s an impressive trio gunning for them. But something tells me Kyle Orton might catch their attention, if I’m not mistaken the Bears have the ability to give their QB time to throw the ball instead of picking the sod out of his mask 8 times a game.
I’m not drinking the Kool-aid, not even close. Not when I see a team play the ice cream schedule they’ve played so far, and had some trouble closing out some of those teams in the process. Hell, St. Louis scored 10 points on this so-called great defense. There’s no way they don’t make the playoffs, if they implode this blog is getting bronzed. But just don’t be fooled by this team, they’ve got holes, the biggest is their QB who is known for choking when the games are really on the line, and if it’s a quality opponent. That’s going to be Chicago, @ Arizona, what about Cincinnati, possibly the Giants if they get their act together. Until they actually beat someone with a winning record and of some substance, I’m not biting!
