It starts tonight with the Cards @ Niners. Drew Stanton vs. Blaine Gabbert and maybe Colin Kaepernick. Feel the excitement.

Overall this week looks like kind of a dud. Atl @ Denver could be interesting just to see if the Falcons are for real.
 
I wonder what awful color scheme Nike has put together for tonight's color rush match up.

Hopefully the Vikings can take care of business at home and go into their bye week at 5-0
 
As a Vikings fan I am concerned about this game against Houston. Not that I necessarily think we will lose, because our defense should cause a bunch of havoc for the Brocketship. But their pass defense is very solid, I know it has been against lower level teams so far, but put that with Clowney going against Clemmings and Vince Wilfork clogging up the middle could cause Sam to try and get the ball out quicker, which he has limited himself from doing so far this season. I am expecting it to be within one score to 10 points in the 4th quarter. Hope I am proved wrong!

Not having to face JJ Watt doesn't hurt my feelings

Looking forward to when Houston comes to Denver. Our defense knows pretty much every tendency that Brock has or does.
 
I'd like to hear an Osweiler postgame press conference after beating the Broncos in Denver. Could be pretty fun.

You worry too much. I think the Vikes will handle the Texans something like 24-6 or 20-6. They've been making the opposing team's #1 receiving option disappear. If they take Hopkins out of the game there's nobody else on that offense who can beat them.

Lamar Miller....Will Fuller... They have more than Hopkins, although if you take Hopkins out of the game they are very limited. I have been a Minnesota Pro and Iowa State sports fan my whole life, I think it is fair that I have some caution going into every game haha. But I do think we will win, I just think it won't be as easy as some think. Though, I did think the same about Carolina.

This has been just fine so far.

Also, poor Browns having to be s*** on by post-suspension Brady.
