Are there 8 more home games against losing teams on our schedule?

That's the only way we could get 10 wins this season.
We should beat the Redskins and Broncos at USB stadium.
Probably win 1 of the next 2 (at Giants, home v. Eagles).

We might split with the Lions - but I'm not sure. Detroit is better than they were last year - we are not.
Packers and Bears will both come to USB fighting for playoff position. Vikings MIGHT still have wildcard hopes then, so optimistically they could steal 1 of those games.

7 wins.

The bigger question is why do Vikings fans act surprised by these results?

Given the team's documented struggles in Chicago, even with rosters that are "better" than this, or previous Bears teams, and in spite of Cousins' well documented and ridiculously poor history in these games, fans are SURPRISED? 

All I can say is WOW.  

Those who IGNORE history, are doomed to repeat it.

We were told they looked at all the past games at the ranch. Then devised a better offensive scheme for Kirk. Our new OC would use knowledge from three coaching philosophies. Then we also added an assistant with run game expertise so our run game would be difficult to defend. Add that to our rebuilt online and our offense would be top notch
As for our defense? Just wait, we added some wrinkles to make it even better.

I am not at all surprised they lost in Chicago, or GB for that matter. Watching this team for over 4 decades? C'mon now. 

That said, I did think today was a winnable game...

Yup. And the Mayans told us the world would end in 2012. And Alexandria Ocasia Cortez, world renowned bar-tender, claims the world will end in 12 years from now. And Obama promised affordable health care with NO issues with your current health care provider. And my parents told me Santa would bring me an Atari set if I prayed really, REALLY hard.
