Mr. Sunshine....not

I can really understand your sentiments...with everything that's been going on the last couple of weeks.

I figured 2 or 3 wins after the first 5 and assuming the offense will need time to jell...

Losing EG is huge, 1 win after Philly would suck but could be our hard reality. Losing like that to Buffalo has taken the wind out of a lot of fans sails and then the s hit kept piling up.

Hopefully they surprise us all in a good way this week. 

I think we'll see a totally different game tonight. I think the Vikings will compete and it will be a good game. But I worry about their mindset with everything that's happened. Throw in the west coast travel in a short week and they could start to unravel again at the first sign of trouble. 

Well then here comes Mr Sunshine. I'm stoked got my Skol Vikings t-shirt on and in game day form already. Tough week for us. Time to take it out on some LA league darlings. If this team is half as pissed as me...look out. We got this.
SKOL!!!

I'm thinking we're going to get killed, and I do believe it.  On the road on National TV against the hottest team in the NFL.

(now watch them pull off the upset since I'm so sure of myself) B)

thursday night games where the road team has to travel 2 time zones or more.... O for the last 10 tries.... so the odds are in our favor.

It's not a game they must win, but a game they must compete in.  The boy's in the trenches must man up.

If they do get beaten tonight, it's worrisome to think about the team's attitude going forward. They will have 10 days off, and I don't think extra time to sit around and think about what has been happening is good for them - especially if the Griffen drama is combined with 2 bad losses.

Win tonight and the team could feel they are able to overcome trouble.

All 5 have been on the road.

Hey NFL,

... but hey, maybe they'll surprise us! Need a better offensive gameplan for starters

As any sci-fi geek will tell you. I just happen to be a Viking geek as well.

i say that all trends end.. 0-10 is a long run in the NFL,  i say the odds are in our favor that the streak ends tonight.

@"StickyBun" said: I have a REALLY bad feeling about this game tonight against the Rams. Like where they look so bad that things start to get questioned. 

I sincerely hope that I'm wrong. Please. 

My skepticism just won't allow me to think the window didn't close against the Eagles in the Championship game.

Past performance does not guarantee future results. Its like saying after 3 straight blacks at the roulette table, that the odds are that red is coming. Not at all true, its still 50/50. That is a trend for a reason and the odds are against Minnesota. Doesn't mean they can't win.

This team is soft and has proven in the past it shrinks when a few things go wrong. I expect full turtle mode at some point tonight.

I think they will be competitive tonight but will actually be surprised if they win.  I'm looking more towards winning in Philly, even though they rarely win there.  They will have a few extra days to absorb everything that's been going on before the Philly game and I think that will really help.  I do believe this is still a very good team.
