Hello, ladies and gents.
Sorry it has been a few days since I have checked in. A variety of reasons are to blame.
However, if you want to participate in this week’s bragging rights competition, then place your predictions for Sunday’s game (Vikes vs. Pats) in the comments section of this post. Nobody picked the Pack to win last week, so I don’t think we can really crown a true “winner.”
So, get to it, who is going to win and by how much?
Pats, 30-20
Favre will play.
27-24, NE. bleak looking at 2-5, huh?
but, hey! there’s always politics and the economy to cheer us up, right?
if you win, i don’t think you want those bragging rights LOL.
“yup im the guy who guessed the losing score!” :p
no doubt, i’ll be happiest if i’m wrong and the vikes win
this might be our toughest game for the rest of the regular season
31-27 vikes
First time predicting here at Vikingsgab.
I’m gonna be optimistic and say 28-24 Vikes.
Yeah Coach it looks that way. He is practicing with the team today.
Ill say this, if he does play and helps lead us to victory I will be impressed.
Ok, so Favre starts, 30-22 Vikes
Jackson starts, 23-20 Vikes
Favre starts but gets knocked out or benched, 26-26 tie.
Jackson starts but gets knocked out or benched, 34-17 Vikes.
32-9 Vikings.
Jon – please get help with your addiction problem – whatever it might be.
45-2 vikings…what can I say? I’m optimistic 😛
42-13 Pats
Favre starts, gets knocked-out in 2nd qtr after holding on to ball instead of finding open pass catcher, or throwing ball away.
11/1-Childress relieved of duty
mmm thats a good question…
a loss = childress gone
a win = a more promising season
which would you rather want?!?
Definitely option one. The vikings would still have a chance even with a loss :P, since I dont see GB beating the jets… but realistically I doubt childress is gonna get fired anyways so I’d rather have them win heh.
Pats 35
Vikes 21
Kills me to say that but I just can’t see a Childress coached team beating a Belichick coached team.
Pats 31
Vikes 20
I can’t either…
24-14 Vikes, someone has to be optimystic.
Ha! Did you do that on purpose? Spelling optimistic with a Y? Takes a mystic to be optimistic? Ha!
Patriots 31-10, and the Vikes keep moving up the draft board.
Pats are a tough team to figure out…lost by 14 to the Jets, but beat the fins by 24. Their defense is mediocre at best, and they dont blitz like any team we have played so far.
I feel Favre will start, and if he can grasp the concept that “guys open everywhere on the field” doesnt apply when they play for the opposition,we will be in good shape.Once again , It comes down to turnovers. They have been the difference in every game this season.
I guess Im a Rube
28-17 Vikings
Pats 38 – Vikes 22
127 to -14, Pats over a limping #4 who won’t sit out, despite his broken ankle. He will play and throw an NFL record 7 int’s, all for TD’s. Also Belicheck will out coach Childress every which way. Childress will counter by running the same play three times in a row, each time resulting in negative stats. The minus 14 is a result of the Ref’s showing Childress that lasts weeks game was no fluke, they can call a game however they want, and he should keep comments of the officiating to himself.
If Favre plays (more than 1 series anyway), 27-20 Vikes
If it’s Tarvaris, 20-13 Pats
31-3 patriots sadly the Vikings r gonna get killed
whats your reasoning behind thinking we’re “gonna get killed” … lol
Simple; Childress against Belichick= Disaster for the Vikings.
Vikes are moving to LA so it really doesn’t matter but Minny by a touchdown. 24-17
im going to this game im so pumped. im wearing a peterson teeshirt under a harvin jersey under a rice jersey under a gold moss jersey, im gonna take one off each quarter. ill probably get jumped but we’ll see..
31-Vikes
13-Pats
Moss 2 Td’s 100+ Yard Rec.
Peterson 100+ Yards rush
Harvin takes one more to the house.
The D plays strong and gets 3 takeaways
Brady knocked out in the 2nd with a concussion.
Not sure what else to predict 🙂
world peace :p.
though many of those are possible, just sounds too good to be true, also known as.. last year
Vikings – 19
Patriots – 14
Viking scores
5 Longwell FG’s
Kenny Onatolu pulls down Tom Brady by his hair for a sack in the endzone for a safety
Newly signed Giselle Bundchen, pulls down Brady by his sack in the endzone for a safety. Vikings are penalized 15 yards for excessive celebration when Giselle “goes to the ground” with Pat Williams
Patriots scores
4 FG’s by Gostkowski
T-Jack, starting in place of favre, is chased out of the endzone for a safety. Patriots are penalized 15 yards for excessive celebration when Vince Wolfork “goes to the ground” with Gisele Bundchen
Dugan spends the entire game on the bench hand feeding favre grapes
Vikes 27 – Pats 24 in a game closer than most think it will be. Most importantly Peterson carries 30+ times for 150 or more 2 TD’s. Moss will get his 1st 100 yrd game back with Minn. at 1 TD. 2 Longwell kicks to put the game away in the final minutes. And I say this regardless of who starts and finishes the game at QB. Defense will get 2 sacks 3 turnovers!
if Favre plays we lose by a lot if Jackson win we lose a close one or actually pull it off
Vikings 20-17
31-28 vikings with t jack coming in the 3rd quarter.
24-17 Vikings. WE have to eventually get a break. HOw may f you guys are afraid of the Patriots TEs?
with EJ, and greenway, not too afriad of em.
Vikings 34 – Patriots 13
Vikings 28 Patriots 21
PLEASE!!!! All I want for my birthday (today) is a freakin’ W!
here ya go – W
happy birfday
rofl.
but yes…an actually controlled offensive vikings game would be a nice birthday gift. but i’ll tell you something better..
last year for my birthday (October 5th) some of you may remember the biggest game last year when we played Green Bay in Green Bay and it was the whole FAVRE GOES TO GREEN BAY DUN DUN DUN Monday Night Game…well I saw it at Sapphires (big strip club here in vegas)…it was prolly one of the best birthdays i’ve had.
but ya .. us being a the patriots would be cool too i guess.
happy birthday brett haha
OK, let’s hear what the Handle has to say:
Seahawk (4-2) at Raider (3-4)
LINE: OAKLAND BY 2½
Al Davis must have thought he passed on after witnessing his previously inept asset rack up 59 points against the Bronco. That performance has boosted this number and while we still aren’t quite sold on the Seahawg, their ability to slow the run negates Oakland’s best offensive ability.
TAKING: SEATTLE +2½
Viking (2-4) at Patriot (5-1)
LINE: NEW ENGLAND BY 5½
Whether Brett Favre goes or not, we do expect to see Tarvaris Jackson on the field at some point and that might provide the stability which Viking need most right now. Minnesota’s defence remains a solid group and against New England’s popgun offence, this one should never get too far away.
TAKING: MINNESOTA +5½
Well, this was an entertaining read! I just know whatever happens, Ole will blame me for it so, I can’t win, but I hope the Vikings can!
I guess I’ll be watching Tom Brady’s parts to see if Ole’s predictions are true…
Being a true purple fan, here’s my guess:
Vikes 28
NE 24
And Happy Dances all around!
Be safe if you’re out and about for Halloween!
Go Vikes!
Lost’s prediction for New England tomorrow afternoon
High of 55 will occur around game time with temperatures dropping to 41 by late afternoon. Skies will be mostly sunny to cloudy with 10 to 15 MPH winds from the northwest.
My turn to take a guess
Minnesota football team – 31
Boston’s football team – 30
Hi Lost Viking! Will you go trick or treating with me?
Hey sis, whoever you are. Vikes have a chance with Favre but little chance with Tjax but I’m with Fran we are so outcoached in this one. Vikes 17 Pats 28.
38-35 Vikes
