win this week and it becomes a Mag Lev train

Most everything went right for the Vikings last week. Should they get down by a couple of scores, on the road, they will be a whole different team.
Seen this too many times before to buy the hype this early!

Ironically, the Vikings had a great comeback last year against Green Bay to take it to overtime. I mean, really nice. But that day the defense looked like garbage.

True and very encouraging at that moment. Cousins brings the Vikings back from behind. Turned out to be an exception. But if they can replicate that, and get some wins on Cousins arm, there may be something to the hype. Sure hope so.

I am not too worried about the hype. As long as they don't buy into it and handle their business, it's all good.

(apologies to the O'Jays)

People all over the world
Join hands
Start a hype train, hype train
The next stop that we make will be soon
Tell all the folks in Green Bay, and Chicago, too
Don't you know that it's time to get on board
And let this train keep on riding, riding on through!

I agree with you and do believe coach Zim does too.
