The Cowboys are 2 Point Favorites for next week???

Thats my thought,  a very emotional win seems to be followed by a let down game for our team.

Until the Vikings win in convincing fashion they won't get a lot of love from Vegas. Packer game doesn't count because that seems like a year ago. Just a simple 28-14 win would do it. 

Actually I am concerned about a let-down game Sunday...

Same here. Hopefully they won't be too full of themselves or spent from yesterday's game and not stumble in the weeks ahead. This team has shown a resiliency that I haven't seen in quite some time. They'll need that mindset each and every week going forward.

If this team doesn’t let down this week, it will speak volumes about our coaching staff. This is a classic let down game. 

That's blatantly disrespectful to have the Cowboys as favorites over us when it's a home game.

Yea, and should fire up the team.  Seriously, they just lost to the Packers and we beat the best team in the AFC.  

I think the line will move to even before the game but even that is disrespectful.

Aparently the Bills suck and the Vikings haven't beaten any good teams yet.  B)

This is all about the Cowboys and has little to do with us.  They are consistently the most overrated, over hyped team in the year every year.  The media and league cowers to Jerry Jones BS empire

That and perhaps a really, really smart bet to place on the Vikings...

I just hope when they shake the euphoria of yesterday, they're ready for prime time.  We need Darrisaw and Evans back too. 

Openers are based on analytics power ratings.  My guess is this will close next Sunday at Vikings in the 0 to -2 range.

POST IT ALL OVER TCO

No respect.  Fuck'em. You have to take it.  

Go beat the Boys (we owe them for the last two years).

What will they say after we beat Dallas?

Exactly my thought as well. I would take the Vikings and the points, and I almost never bet on the Vikings, but I usually like to see the final injury report on Friday first. By that time the money will have moved the odds to favor the Vikings. If not, I will bet on them for the first time in years.

Update - moved to -1 everywhere.  Adam Chernoff released Vikings +2 and it dropped a point.  I'm amazed that anyone can move NFL lines single-handedly but that guy does.

That's fine. Screw the rankings. Just stay focused and get the job done.

that was Zimmer's schtick it worked a couple of times, but not in today's NFL

But IMO this is just what the coaches need to keep this team humble and hungry.

Every week is a prove it game for the Vikings. Don't expect complete buy in. For Minnesota to be 8-1 is beyond comprehension.
