Three At Home
#Three At Home
Feel me?
If Philly holds serve, then two at home will suffice. This defense will travel. We can definitely beat Philly on the road. Our D gives us a chance every game. And, damn, the offense looks pretty good, too.

I'm thinking this year would be a different story. Case's mobility, and a much improved OL could make them pay for the bail out blitzes they were throwing up against a Swiss cheese line, and statue QB.

Yep. That was when our O-line was finally and fully exposed as completely inept. No pass protection and no run blocking. It was the beginning of the end.
despite them blowing up our OL we still blew many chances to beat that team at their place.
I welcome a rematch. I would like to see XR29 shut down Jeffery and us smack the hell out Wentz and that offense

Us facing the Rams, @Was, Staints (yes I know it was week 1), and if we can get through these next few weeks... we will have shown we have the biggest balls of them all!!!True, but I'd still rather have em @ USB then go there...Thats what makes the next 5 weeks so nerve wracking and great. So much at stake now.

The Vikings kicked their ass in every phase of the game with an immoble QB. I’d like it to be said as the Vikings are one of the few teams to beat them.
IN Philly for a late January playoff game-no thanks. This team is good but that would be a very tough beat IMO.

If we have to play them again I hope it's in Minnesota.

Philly is built well for winning in the cold, Blount, Clement, Wentz, quality TE's and a pretty aggressive defense.@"NodakViking" said: IN Philly for a late January playoff game-no thanks.

The whole “the Vikings haven’t played anyone argument” really falls apart when you look at their SOS compared to the rest of the playoff field.
I'd love to hear how loud US Bank can get with a fired up playoff crowd.
Anyone watch Zimmer's post-game speech to the team after beating Detroit? He said (paraphrasing), "We're not just playing to get into the f*cking tournament, we're playing to f*cking WIN at home in our home!"
Love this guy!

Been following this team since 1968...it's time to be the last team standing...the ultimate would be to defeat the Saints, then Falcons, the Steelers...a three pack of payback...
