Well, I was very wrong last week in how the game would go. What should I do this time?
I'll predict it will be a lot closer than I did last week, as this team showed a lot more pride and heart in a playoff game than I anticipated. Would love to see that carry over to today.
Nonetheless, I will go 24-20, 49ers in a squeaker. Prove me wrong again!
I predicted last week I thought the Vikings had gotten all of the bad football out of their system and they would win. I believe this week that the Vikings now have CONFIDENCE by winning in New Orleans where NO ONE gave them a shot to win. I think the Vikings go into San Francisco being loose and confident. My prediction:
The fact that our secondary is SO banged up that we had to work out Terrance Newman and almost signed him to play today scares me with the weapons the Niners have.
And the worry of Theilen's gash and stitches in his foot affecting him as the game goes on really makes me more nervous.
BUT... last week I saw us come together as a team, enter the game given NO chance to win, and come out of that game with a confidence and belief in themselves.
Something just feels right .
So I am gonna say Vikings 30 - 27.
Kirk leads us down to FG range and Bailey excorcises the playoff licker demons and kicks us to a Victory.
I just wanna die as a Super Bowl Champion Viking Fan!!
