Don't look now, fans
1-5 Washington is up big over Dallas and Dalton is out with an injury
1-5 Atlanta is beating Detroit.
0-5 Jets are in a tight one with the Bills, down 12-10
1-4-1 Bengals were beating Cleveland, just a minute ago. Now down by 4.

....and in true Viking's fashion, they'll all lose. :p
I think Washington is going to win for sure.
And ever so quietly, the Bears come into this week leading the Norris and 5/1...
That's all this season is now us rooting for other teams to win and hoping for growth and development from the young guys.
It's weird....Detroit and Atlanta, both teams appear to be trying to lose. I mean, really trying.

and of the four good scenarios......only Washington wins
Atlanta loses, Cinn. loses, Jets lose
The Bengals don't need a QB, so it's ok if they lose. They could be a good trade partner if the Vikings need to move up.
Washington is a team that could rally behind Kyle Allen and Alex Smith and win a few games down the stretch. Who knows, that division is so bad they can end up winning it.
The Jets have a hard schedule and probably a lock for the #1 pick. Trevor Lawrence already off the board IMO.
If Lawerance is off the board, would the Giants or Atlanta be !00% sold on Justin Fields or Trey Lance?
The bottom line is the Vikings must be worse than Jacksonville to be in a position to land a QB in the first round.
Vikings vs Jax and Panthers @ home are going to mean an awful lot.

Are Bill Belichick and the Patriots trying to jump in on the Tankathon for Trevor race?
What is happening to Newton? 3 picks and gets benched!

Newton is awful. He has the talent to make splash plays and keep you believing, but you can't trust him. It's why the Panthers went with his polar opposite.

Can't rule it out, but I think Belichick and Brady are in a game of "I'll prove I can win without you" to the other. Pretty apparent which is winning, to this point.
If Brady wins another Super Bowl, with a different team, does that end any and all GOAT debate that remains??
listen Belicheck always looks for the long term he will absolutely tank for the next Brady like star
As it sits right now, Minnesota could get a top 3 QB at #5: the Jets and Jaguars are the only ones in need of a QB. Doesn't mean someone can't trade in front of Minnesota, however.
Once the schedules balance out in terms of bye weeks affecting Win/Loss %, the Vikings have the third pick as long as all concerned teams continue to lose. Of course we play the jags who currently sit ahead of us so in essence the Vikings once again control their own destiny for the #2 pick unless the SOS gets jumbled and their number goes lower and pushes them down.

I sure hope the rest of the season we get to see some players like Cleveland and Udoh and Dye, just to make it worthwhile.
