just in the worst situation ever. poor guy. so much talent and unable to display it.

He has talent but I think was put in the top too fast last year. Hasnt shown anything this year and to fumble inside the 5 then inside the 20 cost them 6-14 points. Totally changed the game. why they didnt get Pennington on board is beyond me and their receivers suck can they catch the ball...

ok bang....

1. The vikings are one of the most overrated teams in the league.
2. Their offense rivals the Ravens
3. Defenses only gameplan for Peterson (8 in the box)

that being said, the Vikings are capable of that insane game where the defense posts a shut out and AP goes off. However, 7 times out of 10, they are what you see today.

I'll just throw in my observation. It seems like the NFL is really advancing in regards to overall defenses. Running games are extremely tough establish and no team besides Tennessee has shown me anything that resembles a constant/reliable ground game. I'd really like to see the ATS for teams who the previous week combined rushed for over 150 yards and got the SU win.
