The Vikings look downright workman like and efficient, which outside of a stripclub has not been the case for some years. Childress even went so far as to actually suspend free agent pick up Dwight Smith for diddling some chick in a stairway, starting a rookie in his place at safety. The last couple of years, Tice would have just patted Dwight on the *** and proclaimed: "Atta Boy!"
I am predicting 11-5, and winning the NFC North outright. FUck the Bears.
That game was fun to watch, and it was close right down to the end, unlike the second game. I'll give Childress his props for that disciplinary action. More coaches should do things like that. I'd be suprised if the Vikings take the North though, I'll take a few more wins to sell me on that.

Did you see Tom Cruise in the owner's box with Dan Snyder trying to look like he didn't want to get down there with those hulking, sweaty men and take a pounding? Catch my drift? Katie Holmes next to him, sipping Jesus Juice from her Redskins mug with those big doe eyes? Yeah, so did I and he's gay gay gay.
You're just jealous.
So am I... Quote:
What did you expect? You picked up Aaron Brooks as your QB. He needs atleast 10sec in the pocket to be any good. Never had it in NO, won't have it in Oakland and won't get it anywhere's else either. He's an "on paper" QB, not an "in gamne" QB.
No arguement here. When I heard that the Raiders picked him up in the off-season, I said "Who is he? What position does he play?"
The Raiders have been taking people's hand-me-down quarterbacks for far too long. It's about time they groom one of their own. It looks like they may be doing it with Walters. He needs some more grooming yet, but he shows promise. Unfortunately he may get thrown into the meat grinder a bit too soon if Brooks keeps it up.
Still, any quarterback needs protection. That line needs to step it up, seriously.

Not bloody likely! Did you see dah Bears beat up on the Pack? The defense looked spectacular, and they were starting a couple of injured players, and even a few rookies. Plus, they shut out Favre. 'Nuff said.
The offense even looked good. That 49yd TD pass on the first drive gave me all kinds of joy in the testicular region, and they were consistently getting to the red zone all game, regardless of all the field goals that resulted. Grossman has his confidence up, he's finding his recievers, and the defense is as dominant as ever.
It's my (and the rest of Chicago's) opinion that the Bears have a trip to the Big Dance in store for them.
Yes, but come on, it's the Packers. That's a team that is no where near what it once was. I'd wait a few more games for them as well before you get carried away.
Not to say I'm doubting them. They will probably do better than last year if Grossman can perform. He did look pretty good this weekend, but I'm not sold on the Bears actually having an offense yet either. If they can perform against some better teams, I may be willing to jump on that bandwagon.
