And Mattison too. Why is he out?
There's advantages and disadvantages to either outcome. If we want to take the division, we need the Pack to lose. If we simply want to get into the playoffs (wildcard), the Bears losing is a good thing.
Mattison is his ankle. He hasn’t practiced all week. Kearse surprises me though
Yeah if they bears lose which it looks like they will, and we win or even the rams win, they are eliminated from the playoffs. So they are in big trouble but it could be a good thing for us come week 17. I could see them laying down since they are eliminatedTexas Vike wrote: ↑Sun Dec 15, 2019 3:09 pmThere's advantages and disadvantages to either outcome.

Yeah same here. Something about this team that just seems different to me. They’ve fought hard in every game and I expect that to continue. We are battle tested that’s for sure

I was looking at this:
https://www.espn.com/nfl/stats/team
Defensively they are 12th in scoring.
Based on those numbers their record is due to all the turnovers on offense. The key to beating them then is turning over Rivers early and often. We do that we win going away. We don't...

I did not mention the turnover battle at all, but you sure got me good here.J. Kapp 11 wrote: ↑Mon Dec 16, 2019 1:17 pmThis is amazing.
You correctly predicted the Vikings would beat the Chargers if they won the turnover battle. Such clever insight. I don’t know how you do it.
Got any stock tips? I could use some Christmas cash.

Nice job!
Man, I like to participate in game day chat however, I had to log off early because it got cynical quick. But I'm gonna use this opportunity to toot my own horn.I see most people are preparing themselves to be disappointed. I think the Vikings will hold tough especially on the Defensive side.
