Game score predictions?
Vikings will win 27 to 24.

The Vikings are strong and I see nothing but rainbows and puppy dogs ahead.

Also, I’ve really had a great time today.
Thanks GF for making this possible

I’m not great at score predictions, so I’m just going to go with the Vikings winning by 6 points.

Seems reasonable, I think we’ll score north of 30, for some reason.

You bet! It’s so much fun to troll when you’re obviously trolling, but the trollee still doesn’t know you’re trolling.

When I watch the offense, it just feels like they aren’t firing on all cylinders. When that happens, I think they’ll score with more ease. The defense though? Yeesh, shave that dog and teach it to hunt.

I’d like to believe that there will be improvements after the bye. That the coaching staff worked on the weaknesses. The way this team is winning is not sustainable for the entirety of the season and especially into the post-season, should that happen. They are going to have to improve on both sides of the ball.

I figured it will take time to learn this new offense/defense. But it just may be that are players aren’t good enough.

I’m hopeful, too. I don’t think they’ll struggle with the same issues all year, as the staff has shown the ability to adapt & overcome. In the end, we’re 5-1 and looking for ways to become better, it’s a good situation to be in. It’s better than being 1-5 and wondering how we got there.

Does this mean Booth will see the field this weekend?

That would be something. He wasn’t on the injury report last week, either, yet we never saw him.

I actually have a chance this week, as long as Lamar gets his head out of his a**.

Cousins is my backup, so I can always fall back to him if I need to.
