It's a good thing defense travels well... the Vikings are going to need to make some hay in the first half to set themselves up for a playoff run in the final 8 weeks.

Yeah, I noticed that right off the bat. That three-game away stretch against the Lions, Falcons and Panthers is especially brutal.

My bad, went back and changed the Carolina game and forgot to adjust my total.

And did you borrow somebody else's fingers or did you have to take your shoe off? :p

Wow... it's a solid rip because i had to think about it for a minute. Good one!

Well 5 home games in the first 8 weeks of the season means on 3 for the second half. And at least we don't give up a home game for London.

Yes, it will be a bit rough down the stretch, but hopefully our offense is hitting its stride, our d is dominant and we continue to surge.
