Here is proof that I am cured of
VIKINGS NEGATIVITY SYNDROME

I sent this to a blogger on the VIKES site just before the bye week.  It's fun to look back at the week of doubt knowing what we know now.  So many fans were fed up and losing hope.  At the same time you had teams like Buffalo and the SKINS and Dallas dominating. Ha!  

In my humble opinion it's a team that is on the verge of getting it all together. we have yet to have a "solid game" we always have some dumb turnovers, penalties, some bad call or some un-characteristic weird play (see punt drop)

you have to believe that we will "nip that shit in the bud" regardless of chilly and his gang (my take on chilly is very neutral, i think they get too much credit and too much blame, as do quarterbacks) and their efforts.  these guys are all evolving as one group.. like 11 dingo's that are hunting a gazelle and they have to work together and if one of them messes up, well, they all starve. I think our team is hungry! i really do, and I am not being a homer... I am just using common sense.

Sure we all had big expectations, so have the dallas fans. they have no excuse, at least we have excuses =p

Keep your head up.. I think the bye is perfect timing and the vikes will come back with some new wrinkles to give us a few more three and outs on the defensive side.. a few more looks on offense.. a little more flair.

very quietly berrian is on pace for 1000 yards. shankoe is on pace to have a solid year.. AP is on pace for like 1500 yards.. our defense is slowly climbing the charts.. im not big on stats but it's indicative of our aptitude and skill set.

We have a team that could easily beat any other team. so remember the shitty giants we killed last year, remember the wild card steelers who ran rough shot to the super bowl, remember the 87 vikes who beat the 13 and 2 niners and 12 and 3 saints  etc.

"it's too early to call!"


It's not over yet.. but I can smell the Post Season and it smells like astroturf and Grain Belt Premium.

Darn good analysis.... especially with the hindsight factor. Do you have any sage words about the economy I need to hear?
