they played the sorry cardinals defense who just had to run a marathon last week in the shootout with GB, Maurice Morris put up 126 on the 'aints "defense" less than a month ago

you think that the vikings might send their front 4?!?!?! ha well duh and you think that only then 'aints will try to run on them????? good luck! the vikings are killer at stopping the run, first of all they won't miss all the tackles the cards did and we're the type of the team to play straight up on run and will let u guys try all day we'll just hit ya right back in the mouth.

Ever heard of Percy Harvin??? Vikings finally used him all over the field on Sunday and his speed, cutting ability, and hands are just as good if not significantly better than Bush is all aspects, team that up with All Day Adrian Peterson on the field at the same time and again good luck...

ya we'll seee about that

First the Saints are in the bottom barrel of the league as far as defense goes and their offensive stats are VERY comparable with he vikings....

they only averaged 24.2 more yards and 2.5 more points than us but that is not taking into account the weak defenses the saints beat up on and the fact that vikings rested their starters MANY times this season sometimes as early as the 3rd

we just put up 78 points in the past two games against some pretty damn good defenses while only allowing 10 points against two teams ESPN in preseason had picked both to make playoffs and one to make the NFC championships

18-3 in the past two seasons playing under fixed roofs. Up here in minnesota the "big easy" superdome is just another bump in the road to miami

These same Cardinals that you refer to did beat the Vikings just as the Cowboys beat the Saints. Both teams had sloppy endings to their regular seasons.

At the Cards house not at the Dome. Either way it will be a good game. I think the front 4 will give Brees some troubles, but if you think you are going to run on the Vikings. Good luck there. The Williams Wall will be ready and if Ray can do what he did against the Cowboys it will be a long day for the Saints offense. If they get pressure on Brett and AD can't get it going it will be a long day for the Vikings. The Vikings Secondary is going to have to play great and that has been a problem. But if the Vikings can get their running game going and I have a feeling they will it should give the Vikings the edge, but the biggest edge in my opinion is that it is played in New Orleans. That crowd will be very loud!

Is that what they call it these days? Because I call it 4 losses.

He's not even a Vikings fan, don't worry about him. He's just a bandwagoner.

You realize this game isn't at home, right? The Vikes 4-4 record on the road is cause for plenty of concern by itself. Factor in that the Superdome is the loudest place in the league and i'd be very worried.

18-3 last 2 years in fixed roofs with turf. Sure its loud there but nothing to worry us
