Call me superstitious or whatever, but I saw ATH on ESPN gushing about the Vikings today at the gym, and now this - I start to get very nervous. I prefer to fly under the radar and be the underdog.
I am worried about Bridgewater though, but man it's nice to see a return to great defense.

Re: Where does the Chicagoland contingent of VMB watch the V
I've watched a couple games at Redmond's in 2013, but then got DirecTV, and now that I'm in Evanston (at Northwestern), I'm basically stuck with Nevin's (which sucks). Though I bought Sunday Ticket Streaming now so I don't have to waste Sundays at Nevins. BTW, for my Capstone project (I'm getting my...

Re: Vikings @ 49er's Gameday Discussion Thread -- Week 1
After watching the film, it was even more clear that they manhandled us upfront on both sides of the ball. Our line provided no holes for the run game - though surprisingly not terrible against the pass. Their line on the other hand, pushed us around like it was HS vs College. Our LBs were terrible ...

Re: Vikings @ 49er's Gameday Discussion Thread -- Week 1
I just got home from the game, and haven't had a chance to read any of this thread, but wow, we looked terrible. First and foremost, I haven't seen a Vikings run D this bad in - well, I can't remember the last time. On top of that, Teddy looked like a Rookie who had never played on the big stage. Li...

Vikings vs Niners MNF - anyone going?
Anyone going to this game? And if so, anyone going to tailgate/pregame? I'm going, but with a Niners fan , but he has to finish up some work before, so I'd like to meet up with some fellow Vikings fans if possible...

Re: Vikings @ Bears Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 11
Perhaps but it's not just a question of technique. He was facing players with a significant physical advantage over him and that does matter. Brandon Marshall is at least 5+ inches taller and probably 30+ lbs. heavier than Robinson. That's not an easy disadvantage to overcome. Thank you. All this r...

Re: Anyone going to the game this week?
Yeah, that's sad when the best part of the game isn't the game itself. Anyways, not sure where you sit, or if this is standard for Soldier Field/Chicagoans, but ALL GAME people were constantly going up and down the aisles, and stopping right on the edge - in front of everyone's view right during the...

Re: Vikings @ Bears Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 11
That was rough. Especially rough to sit in 25degree weather and watch that. The officiating and clock guy was terrible (not sure if this was noticed on TV, but the clocks were messed up all game). The scoreboard guy should also be fired. After the first Vikings FG, the FG read 9 - 0. Then it went 9 ...

Re: Anyone going to the game this week?
I'll be there! Sec 442. Excited for my first Soldier Field experience, but not looking forward to the weather. BTW, I discovered that Soldier Field has been affectionately referred to as Mistake on the Lake.

Re: This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: The Chicago Bears
Traffic gets congested near the field but parking is the bigger problem. It's expensive and I think lots near the field require a coupon. You can park in the Millenium Park garage and then catch a bus from there to the game but in the end, you're better off taking the L. Have fun! Jim Thanks Jim!

Re: This Week's Enemy Fan Forums: The Chicago Bears
Anyone been to Soldier Field? I'm going tomorrow (living in Chicago for grad school), but trying to decide if it's worth it to drive or take the L. And if I drive, does traffic usually suck (i.e, allow an hour from Lakeview)?

Re: Vikes record with Cassel?
The bigger problem IMO is the defense. Yesterday was the only 2nd half lead we've held onto (and barely).
