    Well i seen this post a few days ago and i held back my comments. I wanted to see more information on injuries and such.So now that i has analyzed this to death im fairly sure my prediction on the Vikings forums is close to being accurate. I try not be a "homer" why i look in to a game.Here is my break down. The Bears have looked impressive in thier 1st 2 games, and they are being hyped on ESPN and all other forms of media. In the Bear forum section i mentioned i am not sold on them,, I stand by that comment and statement. The Bears have won 2 games against 2 extremely weak teams. Lions and the Packers. 1 home and one away. Where on the other hand I think the quality of teams that the Vikings have played are a bit better, minus a healthy Clinton Portis / Steve Smith......Carolina was picked by every "professional" sports caster and sports TV personality in the nation to be one of the top 2-3 teams. Will they get better?.. you can count on it and you can count on the Skins doing better as Portis gets more playing time. And once Steve Smith is fully healthy ,well. we all know what kind of havok he can bring to defenses...... The Vikings escaped and dodged a bullet by not having to face RB-Clinton Portis and WR-Steve Smith. Would the Vikings have won with those players being a factor? Hard to say, but the Vikings won both games by a field goal. The have scored 35 pts. and allowed 29. Not too impressive from a defensive stand point. Vikings are hard to look at, because of those facts, Is it the Vikings Def. that held down battered teams?Or was it beacuse of those battered teams the Vikings where even in the game? One would think that a healthy Vikings team playing a bruised team at home would have scored a shit load more points then 16. I certainly did....My opinion on the Vikings is just as i previously said, they have an advantage on the carpet, but this is a really weak team with a new head coach, and a team on the rebuild. There is, in my mind no way the Vikings can physically match up with the Bears. The Bears deffence alone is solid as any defence i have ever seen. The Bears defence will be up in "Bad" Johnsons face all game. They are too fast, and the offensive line for the Vikings will be folding all day. Expect the Vkings to run alot, screen pass, and dump the ball fast to keep the D-Line out of the back field.. They need to , Brad Johnson runs "the 40" in virtual slow motion... If the Vikings didnt plan this way for Sunday , its going to be a long day for Brad Johnson. I also expect the Bears to lay off the Blitzing because of the quick plays and maybe even ''no huddle" offense. If the Bears dont hold back a bit they can be over ran, or over shoot the ball, and the play.. If they Bears dont adapt quickly to it, the Vikings will run up a quick couple of TD`s before they know what hits em...On the other side of the ball, look for Grossman and the Bears offense to exploit the deep ball , Altho the Vikings Linebackers are good, thier deep guys are very inexpirenced. I dont expect alot of change in what the Bears have done from the first 2 weeks. Unless the game is close during half time. I expect them to run, play action, and set up the deep ball. I am trusting in the Deffense to adapt to a quickly run offence..(fingers crossed here)... Chicago sports moto "If it`s not broke, find a way to break it" ......Lets hope that this team will void it self from that way of thinking and keep on track.. Do the same thing that they have been doing, and we win big.... No i am not sold on them yet,, I want to see how they do next week at home against a healthy Seahawks team ,, If they go 4-0 i will be sold, and eat the words of my fellow Bears fans who have been "gung-ho", and talking super bowl after week 2...."Duuuuur"Well dats whada tink. Da Bears....(All grammer errors are the responsiblity of the Chicago public school system, and are not the responsiblity of its author) lol...

They are too fast, and the offensive line for the Vikings will be folding all day.</div>The panthers battered and redskins "battered" are a hell of a lot better than the Packers and Bears on a good day. "Just win baby." Don't read too much into how much teams win by. The vikings play a grind it out running offense allowing their D to hold the opponent in the cover 2. Games will generally be lowing scoring because of that. A weak team? Last time I checked "on paper" means absolutely nothing when you step on the field. So far, the vikings are undefeated. What more could you ask for? If we were on the rebuild I think Tarvaris Jackson would have started week one. The cover 2 is not a blitzing defense as much as you probably think it is, bears fan. The Vikings have one of the better o-lines in the NFL and probably the best left side in the league. Don't expect to see badass brad on his ass all day. The vikings o-line only folded last game because we played the best front four in all of football. Also notice that only Julius Peppers was getting pressure. Peppers is likely the best pass rushing end in the league going up against a rookie. The bears don't have peppers and Marcus Johnson will only get better with time.

Brad Childress knows his old school football. He is going to run the ball all day, whether it works or not. Also expect the deep ball in this game. The best way to hold a defense like the Bears is to throw the deep ball. Brad Johnson has shown that he still has the deep ball and if Troy Williamson can hang onto it you guys may see a bomb or two score on your defense. Our deep guys aren't very good? Inexperienced? I think you mixed us up with another team.. Antoine Winfield is easily the best tackling corner in the game. His coverage skills are suspect but still solid. Fred Smoot has been playing solid football as of late and earning his money. PRO BOWLER Darren Sharper has been.. well pro bowler darren sharper.. Dwight Smith is adjusting to the game in minny but had a solid game last week too. It's not like the Bears recievers are anything scary anyways.

    Wow,, You sound like your speaking with you heart, which is good if you have a team that backs it up. But you should be speaking as if the facts are in front of you, then become a realist. Since i presented you with some facts, ill continue my trend... The Vikings did win 2 games barely by a field goal each, in each game.They played battered teams, both teams marquee players where out. Vikings caught a big break.. Dont get hyped on them just yet. They <u>barely</u> won 2 games, and are 2-0 because of that fact. Both the Bears and the Vikings played weak teams in the first 2 weeks, either from injury or just plain bad. The difference is that the Bears Dominated 2 weak teams like a good NFL team should do..The vikings squeeked by Washington with 2 TDs, 2 field goals and a missed PAT. The vikings managed to kick FG in the 4th quarter to win. Washington is living up to thier preseaon hype as a pathetic team with an aging almost benched QB and a hurt RB. (the teams only hope). Any NFL team should have smacked Washington into the Patomac and walked away lookin like a super bowl team. The Vikings slipped past this game with a win because of the "X" factor = Portis wasnt healthy.. Injured he still managed to run for 39 yrds and a TD. To play a injured Portis, shows no respect for the Viking deffence.Also....The Panthers where not a big suprise to start out slow for me, Steve Smith would have accounted for 2 touchdowns and 140 yards against the Vikings desperate deffense. NOT TO MENTION,,, The vikings trailed in this game in to the 4th quarter, untill the Vikings had to make a desperation trick play with Longwell. (the teams only TD pass of the day). Nice play, yes, but does this show the Vikings as a power or a great team in the NFL, Hell no... Its a win , which is the most important thing, but they got beat-down, and beat-up by a team missing thier main guy. Lets not forget this game took place at home, in the dome and the Vikings got handled till that 4th quarter trick play late in the game to go to over time. A bad series for the Panthers gave the ball to the Vikings and the Vikings ran Taylor into the ground till they got into field goal range. Longwell the leading passer and kicker of the day won the game for the Vikings. So congrads to Taylor and Longwell for another squeeky win. No thanks to "Bad" Johnson, who tossed for 243yds 1 interception and completed ony 52% of his passes. Hmmmmmm facts got to love em.. right? Let see the Vikings try to shove the RB at the Bears 35 times. The Bears fans can only hope..So are the Viking weak,, ummm Yes, Are they good.. ummmm No... Are they 2-0 yes, and thats what matters, and when a team is 2-0 it breeds confidence, but in this case it has bred false hopes. Yes the Vikings are rebuilding, thats what happened when you hired a new head coach and coaching staff, nothing you can do to get away from that, The Bears had the same thing a few years back when Lovie Smith marched in to Soldier Field.THe Bears have to date , this year blitzed on 45% of all deffensive plays. You had better hope for cover 2 , that arrangement keeps Urlacher out of the backfield , something he is quoted as saying he dislikes. Great offensive line? Julius Peppers lead his team with 3 sacks, 5 for that game, and a season total of 6 sacks in 2 games. Im not a "math-o-brain" but thats an avg of 3 sacks per game. That means "Bad-ass Brad" will be on his "bad-ass" approx 48 times this season,, WOW.. nice "O-LINE".... I beg to differ...cause i got the facts....Dont be so deffensive,,let that be the point for you and the Vikings, It something that would help you both... greatly. More deffence for them, and less for you....Cheers...Lets see what will happen,, im sure you wont be so quick to jump on the Vikings super bowl bus after tommorrow. Oh i like the "Pun" on you name "No place like dome",,, Well i got one for you,,, the Bears deffense are "Dome wreckers"On the Bears end of things,, read this link, it will show ya my opinons on the Bears.Bears reportThanks the "Realist"

Thanks the "Realist"</div>First of all, i'm not on the vikings super bowl bus. I never said I thought we were going to win this game.. just dont write us off right away with a 30 + point win. We aren't the lions and we sure as hell aren't the packers. I take it that you're one of those betting gurus who takes note of the over/unders on each game. Personally, I don't give a crap about that.The vikings have shown one thing in the past two weeks. Regardless of who they're playing, when they are in close games, they can find a way to win them. So far Brad Childress looks like the best rookie NFL head coach especially in the way that he exploited the knowledge that he had about the panthers Special teams. The fake kick came at a perfect time against a panthers ST that loves to stack everyone on the line to block a kick. That is a great coaching move. As much as you want it to be true, the vikings aren't a weak team. Sure, read into all the pundits saying shit about a team they don't know anything about. Troy Williamson has proven that he can be a #1 receiver, Chester Taylor proved that he can be a 100 yard a game back, and Brad Johnson proved that he still is a good quarterback and will still be as mistake free as always. The offense plays to his strengths. Yes, the o-line is good. As mentioned before, the vikings played the best front four in football and paired a rookie against the best pass rusher in the league. Notice that they only gave up 1 sack against the Redskins. Clearly the Panthers front four has skewed your so-called stats for the rest of the year.Again, i'm just trying to tell you to watch out for this team. Not being defensive.. just some friendly intelligent jabbing before the game.Your friend,The apparent pipe-dreamist [​IMG]

    I love the jabbing, but your all heart, and a "homer" , Your not lookin at facts, i am. Sry to say Vikings havnt proven 1 tenth of what the Bears have with both of their 2 wins. And the Bears havnt proven crap yet. You have a rookie coach, and a mess of inexpirenced players, and the others are soo old you had to send a hospice vehicle to pick them up in Green Bay just to sign them.. ... lol.....Look the only thing that you should have lost in Minn. in the last few years was the owner,, Moss, Culpepper, the list goes on,,, Ouch man,, Flippin ouch.. I respected that team,., i dont respect, and wont watch out for anything but disappoint in the eyes of the fans wearing yellow womens wigs , blowing cow horns, dressed up like celtic rejects lol.... Now thats a jab my friend from too many lakes....<span style="font-size:24pt;line-height:100%">GET ON THE VIKINGS SUPER BOWL BUS</span>[​IMG]

    Heart? What the hell are you talking about.. Would you actually read my posts instead of ignoring them, please? Last time I checked you guys beat two teams that sucked ASS last year. We beat two playoff teams from last year. Read into point differential all you want.. Inexperienced players? Who? Old players? Other than brad and pat williams (who both still have game) we hardly have any players over 30 in our starting lineup.. Get your facts straight bub. And your last paragraph.. makes no sense. It's completely incoherent so I can't comment on it. To the picture.. read the very beginning of my last post.

    Look young man i read your post, thats why every part of my replies addresses each -part of your comments. I dont skip parts as you do. I addressed it all and i commented with facts,,, you keep braggin on a team who barely won and allmost lost both games, The vikings won which i said is all that mattered. First off , get this straight, i am not looking at this as "i hate the Vikings thing" you are defending them as if they are real contenders,, They are not.. Are the Bears, Who knows at this point, But the Bears have been more impressive to this point.You are getting offended,. and taking these posts to heart, you are not looking at the game or the teams from a realstic point of view, you are looking at it as a Die-Hard Vikings fan which has your intelligent view points blurred. Deffend them all you want, I know facts, i look the big picture, and i look at games realistically.. Your not, Im not getting nasty,, but thats where you want to take it,,, fine. Your lookin at this game with you heart as a Viking fan, and i appreciate your loyalty, I am also sometimes blind by my love and devotion for the Bears, But as you can see, and if you read all of my posts, and responded to every asspect of them, as i did yours you would know i have been looking at things objectively.I am sorry you are getting upset "bub" but the facts are the facts, and you can try to banter, argue and debate with me about your "OPINIONS" , but sooner or later you must come down off the cloud that your tripping on , and realize the Vikings are not much more then a 7-9 team maybe, and thats being gracious.You want my honest opinion on matters? I give Brad 3-4 more games before someone runs thru that sad excuse for a "o-line" your so proud about, and tramples his ass to the turf. I will break it down like this,,, position by position to see how they match up..factually...Lets see how you look at it factually...QB- Bears,,, In 2 games he has passed 551yds 5TD 1 INT, completing 71.7% of his passes. Young inexpirenced top draft pick who is prone to injuries, who has seemed to have shown up so far this year leading the NFL thus far. Not alot of stock, yet he has youth on his side. 1 Fumble QB- Vikings,,, In 2 games he has passed 466yds 1TD 1 INT completing 57.4 of his passes, A 13 year Vet, who after being with 3 teams, 4 if you count his 2nd go in Minn. He has never had a qb rating over 92.9 (with the bucs). He is worn, tired and slow. He has a decent arm, not like it used to be, But his big advantage is his expirence. 1 Fumble"0-LINE"-Bears,,, Have allowed 1 sack this year.. Last year they allowed 31 sacks. 2nd in the NFL.. 99.9% to Orton."0-LINE"-Vikings,,, Have allowed 6 sacks this year, Last year they allowed 54 sacks. 27th in the NFL.split about 50/50 with Brad and Daunte.RB-Chicago,,, Last year Jones-1335yds with 9TDs This year just as healthy with a up and coming , unproven back up. 2 Fumbles This year split time combined 217 yds. 0 TDRB-Vikings,,, Last year Moore-662yds with 1TD (back up with less yds and more TDs 3). This year spliting time with a so-so back up, combined 226 yds. 1 TDWR / TE-Bears- 556yds 5 TDs this year.WR / TE-Vikings-482yds 2TDs this year.DEF-Chicago- Points for 60 Points against- 7,, Ranked 5th in NFL with 9 sacks, 2 int.DEF-Vikings- Points for 35 Points against 29,, Ranked 7th in NFL with 2 sacks 0 int.Special teams ill give to the Vikings for kicking soooo many field goals this year...Altho the Bears have a Punt return for a TD. And have about triple the return yards..So i will give you the edge on QB going into this game, other then that, you had better hope that Johnson and Longwell show up so your team has a chance. Especially Longwell your leading passer tied for TD passes. Ill even give you a small advantage at RB, but the Bears Deffence will quickly drop the Vikings rank in the rushing area soon after the game. I wish you, your heart, and your team much luck this week, you will need it. Also if you dont understand "last paragraph" the im certain that your not a real Vikings fan after all. And the old players you scrapped out of Wisconsin is Longwell, and Sharper, but since your such a real Vikings fan im sure you knew that, and your comment about old players was a mistake.. Ill let you slide on that one young man... but ,,I will be here posting right after the game,, i hope you join me no matter which way the game turns out....<span style="font-size:24pt;line-height:100%">YOUR BUS IS WAITING, HURRY, HURRY</span>

    You're reading me wrong. I'm not angry. This is kind of fun going back and forth. We'll find out tomorrow who was right and i'll more than likely have to come back here to get my crow. As you can see by the last sentence, i'm not blinded by my viking love. I still think they are a going to contend for the division and in the end win a well faught wild card berth into the playoffs. Super Bowl? Far from it. Let me defend my team in your analysis. QB: Yes, brad johnson is old. Yes, his stats are not the greatest. Yes, he is not the best fantasy QB out there. The thing is, Brad Johnson wins games. He is 9-2 as a starter in Minnesota. That's really not half bad considering one of the two losses came to the eventual super bowl champions. People on this site discredit Brad Johnson so much. He's a mistake free quarterback that knows the west coast offense like the back of his hand. Absolutely nothing that makes me say "Let's throw away the season now, we're doomed because our Quarterback won't win people fantasy leagues"RB:Mewelde Moore isn't the starter any more... Chester Taylor is currently ranked 6th in the league in total rushing yards. Not too bad if you ask me. He is also on pace to set a league record for number of carries. Splitting time? I think not. O-line:Last years o-line stats mean nothing. We currently only have one player from that line that started a majority of the season. That means we have added 4 new starters to the offensive line. I've given them two games to gel and now they should be ready to perform. If not then the bears will eat them up like they have to the packers and lions respective o-lines. WR/TE- Stat wise, you guys are probably better. I'll give you that for now but Troy Williamson is stepping up big time especially with the clutch catch in overtime against carolina. And no, Steve Smith has absolutely no impact on Carolina's secondary. DEF: umm yeah.. Uhh can't argue that one.. you win. Vikings defense ranked 7th thus far could shut down the bears o. That remains to be seen. Should be a good game, but honestly you are as much of a homer as I am. I can admit when a team is clearly head and shoulders above another. As of now, the bears are NOT head and shoulders above the vikings. We have the edge at QB, and o-line IMO the two most importand positions in the game. We'll see how this plays out tomorrow. The fact here is that you can't take it when other people have an opinion and i'm the same way. Oil and water don't mix.. neither do bears and vikings fans. So take my comments with a grain of salt, and hope to god that we don't injure Rex "can't make it past week 4" Grossman again. [​IMG]

    Last comment for me then im going to bed or my kid will will wake me up with almost no sleep...Ok,,, How can Brad Johnson be 9-2 in Minn, when he has played in 55 games for the Vikings? Mistake free? Are you sure we are talkin about the same "Brad" = 156TDs and 103 carreer interceptions.. 53 fumbles???Chester Taylor = a completely unproven player,,, his 1st starting job is umm Now.. 1800 yds in 5 season, 5 TDs and 4 fumbles.. Lets not hop on this horse yet, Dont give me he hasnt gotten a chance rutine..He is not a starter for a reason.. He sucks, Great he had 1 good game... Im totally impressed, im glad Minn has you sold on him,, Glad you have em and we dont.O-line: Ohhh so now you agree with me that your team is in the rebuilding stage, because a few posts back you debated that the Vikings where not... Hmmmm 4 new on the O-Line ? I guess you need to have all 5 new linemen to be rebuilding right? The Bears are going slip thru that line like oiled diarrhea and turn Brad into a Chit sandwich... lol.Troy Williamson = 6 catches for almost no Yac. Is not stepping up, its not bad, and he looks promising,, But no TDs this year.... Brad threw 31 passes what reciever wouldnt get 100 yards? Not to mention he is a short reciever , Good luck with any teams DBs and CBs.DEF- Noted..agreed. Ok i got the grain of salt, and im going to bed but look at what the so called experts picked for this week. I agree most of these guys are kinda goofy with thier picks But notice who is the only team picked by all people.....LOLTHE PICKS CLICK ME HERE...

    One more comment then off to church. I never agreed that the o-line is in a rebuilding stage. Do you call bringing two perennial pro bowlers back to the line a rebuilding stage? Steve Hutchinson, arguably the best Left Guard in all of football, and Matt Birk, who is still one of the top centers in football. Those Brad Johnson games were like 10 years ago. He's 9-2 in his new stint in minnesota. But anyways.. its not worth arguing now.two hours til gametime.go vikes.
