Lions @ Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 10

Post by yezzir »

Cant believe the season is already half over. Here's to a strong 2nd half!
Is today more than likely a must win?
Prediction: Vikes 16, Lions 13

SKOL! :v):

Mathematically it's not a must-win but it's clearly a game the Vikes really need to win.

I agree. The second half of the season is tough and it would be great if we win this game. If we don't, however, things aren't looking good for us. Ponder needs to pick it up, or were done.

The Vikings will step it up. Harvin's absence will motivate them. AD will run wild and Ponder will hit Wright for his first NFL TD.

It's a must win for both teams. If the Vikings lose this one, at home, they may very well not win another game this year. The Lions need to win to have any chance of salvaging their season. The loser of this game will almost certainly finish last in the NFC North.

Now that I think about it, every time I've been able to regularly post on the gameday discussion threads, we've won, and every time I have not been able to, we have lost. I am able to regularly post today, so I might be changing my prediction to a win.

If Ponders blunders multiply by the quarter, which seems likely without Harvins mercy thunder, then yikes.

I have seen enough of Plunder. Hope Webb comes in today.

Right now are chances of making the playoffs are supposedly 13%. If we lose to the lions pretty much fat lady is warming up her voice. Our only chance is for Webb to the rescue.

Excited to see Jarius Wright play. I'm predicting a TD drive on our 1st offensive possession. SKOL

If Ponder has 3 completions and 22 yards at half time, I don't really care who at this point, but somebody (anybody!) else better be under center in the second half. Go Vikes!
Agreed one more #### half by Ponder and im done with him hes gotten way more than most get without being benched .
