Have a feeling the two big name rookie QBs will beat the Vikings this year. I have faith in Ponder but I don't know if he will be able to show up and have a 200-300 yard game with multiple TDs (which may be what the Vikings need if RGIII gets hot)
31-21 Redskins over the Vikings.

Re: Vikings VS Redskins Predictions
This game has 'letdown' written all over it. We're going to lose tomorrow, and it's going to be ugly.
Redskins 34, Vikings 21. Ponder's going to look real bad; I see 3 INTs.
Of course, I pray I am wrong. And for the record, I've bought into these Vikings as a legitimate contender and at the moment I like our chances to make the playoffs, or at least make a serious run at a playoff spot. But people (writers, analysts, fans of other teams) are finally starting to notice us this week, and that is always an ingredient of a letdown game.
And with Ponder, it's essentially the same thing. I'm beginning to gain faith in him, beginning to believe he may just be the long term solution. MAYBE. But others are saying the same, so I expect a letdown performance from him.
We'll lose tomorrow, but I say we rip off either 5 straight or 4 of 5 after this week.
If I am wrong, I would be incredibly encouraged by both my team and Ponder. So here's to that.

Do not mistake KINDNESS for WEAKNESS!

Re: Vikings VS Redskins Predictions
I am not really sure about this game and think that there are certain real possibilities of the Vikes losing.
I am trying to keep things in perspective with the notion that this is a very young team and has already exceeded most peoples expectations.
A win away from home and going 5-1 would be great for the team, it's standing, and for the fans. That being said, a loss by 10 points or a win by 20 would not shock me either way.
My heart tells me a 7 point Viking win

I'm seeing this as a "pick 'em" game but I think the Vikes will stay focused and make enough plays to win an ugly one, 27-24.
