Queens/Lions

[Cooter]

One of the two is gonna be at the bottom of the NFC north by tomorrow afternoon. Thought I heard the Vikes are picked to win by a healthy amount. If I had to put money up it would be on the Queens. Its certainly a must win for them. We'll see if last years team comes out and plays. However, I must say - go Lions!

Lions 28

Queens 24

Vikings ship sunk.

[LMITOUT]

The Lions are who we thought they were, and they'll be at the bottom of the division when the day is done.

if i were a betting man... Vikes by 11 points? i don't think they cover that

wish the game was on here in Virginia... there's an episode of Cold Case on tv instead of an early game. [PoorWordUsage]?

[FISHINGURU]

Vikes, with ease.

[Bowfin]

Hopefully they will put in "Carma-mello" early in the game so Farve has someone to pass to instead of Bernard "Barely-a-catch".

[james_walleye]

vikes 27-13

[snoozebutton]

So far either the Lions offense looks out of sync (or the Vikings defense is looking good.) Maybe a little of both.

[Shack]

I predicted a Vikings win once in here. I had enough hate posts to never predict a Vikes win ever again.

[LMITOUT]

Appears the Lions defense is out of sync too.

[walleyeking19]

that blow to the head was a weak call. they baby quarterbacks too much.

[pike doctor]

Once again the O-LINE CANT effing block. put a stop watch on how much time we have to throw the ball and how much time they have to throw the ball. Thats why we are 0-2 and close with loser Det.

If our line wouldnt get blown on their arses every play we could actually get peterson running downhill and this game would be over.

[flipper]

That was a bogus roughing call against the lions.

[goblueM]

also clearly that was a backwards pass by Favre

That's exactly right...the problem with our offense is not Favre's timing with his receivers, it's the fact that he has absolutely NO time to throw the ball. The talk is we have no deep threat...Berrian is as fast as just about anyone in the league...he can go deep...Favre has no chance of getting him the ball right now. He barely has time to throw outlet passes and check-downs.

Good thing we played Detroit today. On a positive note Peterson looks fantastic and the early bye week ended up being a blessing.

[reinhard1]

farve had a lot of ice pacs on the sideline. defense played well. offensive line not there yet. penalties and turnovers were nuts and we still won. good luck.

[zepman]

I hope Cook continues to play center...it's his natural position and we finally get some attitude and push in the middle of the line. Sullivan is a career back-up at best.

Ugly game but it was a win.

[DTro]

One thing about the Vikes is that they are consistant. All 3 games have been off the chart ugly. Just turns out they played a bad team yesterday and could actually win.

I think 8-8 is about as good as they get this year, and they miss the playoffs.

[Cooter]

Not pretty but certainly a win. The bye might be nice but wouldn't you rather have it latter in the season? Gonna be tough coming off that and playing the Jets. Poor Lions.

[FISHINGURU]

Perfect time for the bye, we need it.

I agree about Sullivan, he's just to small, I don't care how smart you are if you get bulldozed everytime. They need to move Loadholt to RG too while they are at it.

I agree 100%. We start making some positive moves on the OLine and this offense starts to click. It gets REAL tough for the next four: Jets in NY, Cowgirls in Minny, at Lambeau, and at Foxboro. Yikes. At 1-2 we need to win 3 out of 4. Two out of four makes the rest of the season pretty stressful.

[PierBridge]

2 out of 4 is the best case scenario. Looks like 1 and 3 to me.
