SI.com: Vikings Superbowl contenders?

[MaroonBells]

We were saying the same about the Chiefs last season. Then December rolled around & their only loss was a meaningless game against LV. We know how that story ended.

Yep and both were true. Like I said, that's a talented team that can get hot and make everyone forget how badly they've been playing. They did it last year. But there's no doubt they have been less than "super." Maybe Mahomes and company just don't come alive until the playoffs. Some teams are just wired that way. I think Mahomes is.

Yep. Chiefs were underdogs vs BUF, BAL, and SF in the playoffs last year. New season new team sure but I predict they'll be in the Super Bowl once again. Hopefully losing to us.

I think the Vikings are real contenders. I'd rather bet the Vikings at +1700 or GB at +1400 to win the SB than any of the 5 teams ahead of them.

I think GB beats DET tomorrow, so if I'm dead wrong we'll know fairly soon ha.
