royalfan said:Better question. Are the Vikings going to go better than 11-5 like you said beforehand or are you going to admit you are a homer.

Will the Patriots miss the playoffs?
Yes: +120
No: -135
It's not as much of a luck as it was in the preseason but the Bills are struggling at QB, the Jets are struggling at QB, and the Dolphins are improved but still the Dolphins.
Pats are weaker but play in a division that isn't doing so hot right now.
jakethompson said:I'm not a homer but I still think the Vikings can win 10+ games...
They just need Culpepper and the defense to get healthy. They play in the worst division in the NFL and before all the injuries hurt them, this team was a legitimate candidate for 10 or 11 wins.
Vikes need to get healthy in a hurry if they plan on going anywhere.
royalfan said:What do you mean by the phrase"still the dolphins"? Just curious as they have been one of the most consistent teams that there ever has been when it comes to making the playoffs.
royalfan said:I know, on paper I thought they looked pretty good going in also. Just fun playing with Viking a little bit as there isn't a bigger homer on here, although I do give him credit for being a good fan of his teams, albeit ludicrously unrealistic on nearly every occasion.
