bears vs vikings

booger · #1 09-19-2006, 04:47 PM

I have been a vikes fan since 1967. Yes 39 years of purple despair. Brad Childress has done a good job with the team trying to right the ship with discipline. Brad Johnson is a good fit for the vikes for now and I'm actually interested in what Tarvaris Jackson will do in the future. The emphasis, finally, on improving their defense is a welcome sign.
Vikes have done a good job winning on the road vs the redskins (05 playoff team) and at home vs carolina (05 playoff team). The biggest test will be da bears. The bears have a better O and D. For the vikes to win they will have to win the turnover battle. Vings offense has been average at best.
I fear the bears will wear down the vikes.
Anyone elso thinking Bears/Ravens possible superbowl. I know it's extremely early.
Anyway, thoughts??

While I've been impressed with the Bears and Ravens, I'd like to see them beat teams other than 4 of the worst 6 teams in the NFL right now.

I see the Vikes keeping it close, but I don't think they score enough to win.

With HFA I could see this game being close, the bears have beaten up on two bad teams, I'd like to see them play a good team.

Works for me. Back to the Bears V. Vikings thread.

I'm aware of that. I wasn't knocking them, and right now I think they may even be the best team in the NFC. I was just reminding people not to start screaming SB matchup immediately after Week 2 because 2 teams have looked good against absolutely terrible opponents.

It seems as though this Bears bandwagon will fill up quickly. Don't worry MyTurn2Raise we will always keep some room for you if you come around.

I almost bet on the Bears big here, but remembered how the dome can be a house of horrors. I think that's the only thing preventing a double-digit win for Chicago.
