I know I am because I was expecting Farve to fail big time but the man has proved me wrong.

Favre is playing like a man possesed. He's making me eat my words too.

They will be tied with the Saints at 10-1 on Tues morning

Count me surprised, Solomon!

Of course, I wish they were 0-11.

Is the league rigged to make them Super Bowl champions and "guilt" the voters to vote in favor of using their taxpayer money to build them a new stadium???

Well I may have to root for Farve just in case they play the Eagles Again in the playoffs-lol

It really doesn't surprise me at all because the Vikings were always just a QB away from a great team.

Yeah that is true, if they have a different QB in that wildcard game last year vs the Beagles the outcome would have been different.

Don't underestimate Brees and the saints.

Brian Damage · 11-29-2009, 10:17 PM

Agreed, I really think the Vikings are the most complete team in the NFC.

If the Saints are going to lose, it will be tomorrow night.

If you only need one statistic to understand why the Vikings are 10-1 and why Favre appears to be working his Favry magic, understand this: Brett only has three interceptions. All years. Compared to 24 TDs.

Aside from his first season, in Atlanta, when he played in a total of two games, his previous low-water-mark for interceptions? 13, in three different seasons in the 1990s. He's currently on pace to finish with between 5-7 interceptions *MAX*, easily the most mistake-free season of his career. That's the difference. It also helps that with 5 games to go he has 24 TDs (better than ~50% of his season totals already), but the key figure is THREE interceptions on the whole season.

And I believe two came in one game. It is incredible that he only has three.

What would be weird to see is if the Packers make it as a wild card team, and win the game and play the Vikings in the next round. That would be nuts if Vikings lost.
