I don't know that the Vikes are that close to winning the big game, but as far as getting into it is concerned, anything can happen in the NFC. Dallas leads the conference in choking away playoff games, so anyone who makes the playoffs has a shot.

Exactly, make it through the NFC and then play the perfect game in the superbowl....its what happened last year. Who really thought the Giants were going to win the superbowl until they got there?

A lot of teams you can say are a QB away from being a Champion. The NFL QB is something the league is lacking. Value in your future bet ? Worth a shot good value. GL

As a Saints fan I can remember Ditka saying we were just 1 player away from going to Superbowl right before we acquired Billy Jo Hobert lol. But, I would agree there is value with this play Dr. Jack. Worth a $10 bet.

a pro-bowl QB makes them an 11 win team or so assuming AP stays healthy, and they do have a talented defense. I would say probably.

they def have a chance of making it out of the NFC which is pretty weak and in a 1 game situation like the superbowl they have a shot, i see value in the play.

The most difficult starting SCHEDULE
stretch could arguably be felt by the Minnesota Vikings, who will see three 2007 playoff teams (Packers, Colts, Titans) in their first four games, including Green Bay and Tennessee on the road.
Green Bay is Favre less now ,

But Vikings outdoor record
has still been historically poor ...


The "break" in the Vikes' first month is a home game against Carolina in Week 3

How does anyone predict the Vikings win/loss ratio is their first month?
2/2?
1/3?
