I will only be around for the first game because I need full concentration when the Eagles are on-lol

So will the Dolphins and Vikings also play with a CHIP on their shoulder like the two home teams yesterday since they are also UNDERDOGS???

I've looked at the history of the teams who are in the playoffs as to the wild card and it's pretty interesting.

Somtimes it's the away teams that win all four or 3 games. Sometimes it's the home team.

Sorry to break this to you Sol, but there is no way the Vikings will beat the Eagles. JMO

I agree but there is still a chance because of the Eagles road record below

3-4-1

I think they are the hottest team in the NFC right now. The Vikings better game plan against Westbrook.

Being a hot team doesn't matter all the time.

Look at what happened to the Colts- 9-game winning streak and Peyton winning league MVP, and what did that get them? One-and-done.

Not that hot because they just lost to the skins two weeks ago, on the ROAD. Their last week was at home.

Vikings can give themselves a chance by holding on to the ball. But they probably still lose

I think a lot of Eagles fans were fooled by that 44-6 over Dallas for a few reasons

1.Dallas was not a good road team, 3-5
2. Dallas has a turnover prone QB
3.Dallas turned over the ball 4 times that led to 24 pts

How often does a defense get to contribute 24 points?-lol

It may not mean anything but I'm just saying

Bad example because, the Chargers were an equally hot team.

I agree, Brian. The Eagles have the defense to stop Peterson, plus the Vikes have no Qb.

Can't wait for today.

Funny thing is AL and John were talking about Peyton's hair and not having a hair cut for 9 weeks.

Waterston_Fan · 01-04-2009, 01:41 PM

Don't forget the 14-2 Charger a few years ago too. We were already thinking we had the Super Bowl won...

That's why I wanted Gus Ferotte to start because atleast with him, he is not trying to have a HERO MOMENT. Tavaris Jackson has to realize that as a starting NFL QB you don't always have to be the reason your team wins, you just can' be the reason your team loses. Once he figures that out then he may be ok
