Good on ya if you are, I won't be. I should say I'll just be watching whatever plays NFL Redzone decides to show me from the matchup. Its been awhile since I've cared less about watching a Viking's game than this one. To see what? What young talent am I going to see that hasn't already played? Fast forward me to the Draft for being interested in what the Vikings are doing. Happily, Michigan beat Alabama so I've got the CFB championship game still ahead to get excited about, then I'll watch the NFL playoffs and segue into college basketball.

I'd love to know our record on holidays. Might just be my mind playing tricks on me but I swear those games rarely go our way. At least I'm usually eating good on these days while we get thumped.

Ditto...

I got no "root for" the 23 team left

We need the Raiders, Falcons and Bears to win plus a Viking loss to move us from 12 to 9th (I think :)

Raiders are Home vs Denver
Bears at Packers
Falcons at Saints

IMO, the season is already over...they will probably lose to the Lions and finish at 7-10.  I'll just kick back and hope for a successful free agency period and the up-coming draft and see if the organization can put a better team on the field next year.  LOL...no suicidal tendencies in my house over this...

I love the Vikes and we only get 17 weeks to watch them, so I will be watching and trying to enjoy the last time getting to see them until August.  To be honest, that internal Viking fan the keeps punishing myself with false hope is tracking the 3% scenario in which we can still make the playoffs  ;)

Providing the above happens, we may be able to move to 8th if the Jets win. Both Jets and Vikings will be 7-10, it'll come down to strength of schedule as the 1st tie breaker.

LaPorta scores, Gibbs scores, Jack Campbell all over the field on defense. Top tier draft class

Too bad for us Michigan basketball is as pointless as Vikings football...

Just another hapless, pathetic, non disciplined effort to end the season folks. Offensive line is sieve. We literally cannot do anything. It's time to do some major overhauling and evaluation this offseason. Kwesi has been quasi hanging on to the prior regimes coattails as far as early success. It's time for him to earn his money this offseason and see what he's got. No more passes because this is his offseason to shape this franchise moving forward. We've cut salary and have some money to work with. Highest draft pick in a while. We need to get the quarterback position figured out while upgrading the talent across the board. This is Kwesi's offseason.

Annnnnnd the defense gives it right back. The total collapse of the defense over the last month has been baffling. I think it's safe to say opposing coaches have figured out what Flores is doing
