Sqrl said: @Onyx, As for the Vikings, they are obviously more worried about how high they will be ranked in the playoffs than whether they will make it. With that said I think the PATs have to beat NO for the Vikings to have a legitimate chance at the #1 spot. Otherwise they are pretty much stuck with #2 and the NFC title game will almost certainly be played in NO. PS - @All League Members, Updates will probably be 1/week after MNF until the playoffs. Has to do with my schedule atm. Just FYI for those wondering (its been this way for a few weeks now obv). |
Well I wasn't trying to give credit to the Bears. I was just saying not to count them out. They were playing at a much higher level back then as opposed to now though. I could have told you weeks ago they were no match for Minnesota.
The Packers on the other hand I think will make the post season and follow with a spectacular crash in the wildcard round. Think back last post season at the Falcons, Panthers and Dolphins.
Unfortunately for the Vikings they are at the mercy of a Saints loss, which is still more likely to happen than not. The Saints are just more likely to lose a trap game than against a legitimate contender. I still see the Vikings losing once more also though, so ultimately I think they'll be staring at the #2 seed. As they become more comfortable in a #2 seed role, they'll lighten up their game plan and rest starters, so expect the Vikes to lose either Week 16 or 17.
