3rd Quarter

After the first quarter of the season, I expected the Vikings to lose one out of the 4 games making up the second quarter. Turns out I had that backwards. After the way they played the last four games lets take a look at the next four:

@ Redskins
vs Cardinals
@ Lions (Thanksgiving Day)
vs Cowboys (Thursday Night)

Earlier in the season this looked like a pretty easy stretch. Now, not so much. The Redskins seem to have a tendency to beat up on the Vikings at FedEx Field, the Cardinals are in the heat of the race for the NFC West, we all saw how the Lions played the Vikings yesterday, and the Cowboys are possibly the best team in the NFC. This will be a tough stretch. However, I see Zimmer getting this team together and winning 3 out of these 4 games. The lone loss I believe will come to the Cowboys. And the Vikings will be sitting at 8-4 going down the stretch.

I picked them to go 1-3 but 2-2 seems quite possible. I'll be pretty surprised (and happy) to see them do better than that.

They beat Detroit, only because it is Detroit on thanksgiving day. I had this team 7 and 9 at the start, and so far they've beat 3 teams I figured were losses, but it turns out those teams were just not that great anyways(Green Bay, Carolina, and Houston).

I don't see us winning any games. We are as bad as the browns in my opinion.
