Been a Vikes fan since Tarkenton was under center. I think Favre is the Anti-Christ, but it's hard not to root for the Vikes' first decent season since the Culpepper/Moss days.

Go VIKINGS!!!

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

I am raised into being a Partial Vikings fan, but knowing some family moved to Louisiana Years ago.. It grew on me.... hehe

So no matter what I will be rooting for one or the other, but if they both make it to the big game I will have to go for the Saints, Even though the Vikings are still a blast to watch!

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Forget the Saints right now.
Focus on the Cowboys.

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

haha But if the Cowboys take out the Vikings.. a bit easier for the Saints eh :banger



...running away :D

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

I'm so undecided on them... granted I'm not a 'fan', but I dont know if

a) I want them to lose so Farve will just retire and go away

or

b) I want him to win so we can see if he has any magic left in those 65yr old bones of his :D

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

I bleed purple!! I'm a die-hard Vikes fan and I'm pumped for the Cowboys game this Sunday. I love the support Carlos, we'll need it this weekend if Dallas continues their hot streak.

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Kill them Cowgirls!

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Will do. And you meant Cowboys... Right? :D

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Its looking good for you guys today

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Congrats to you guys. You guys played great

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

took a nap... they still appear to be winning.

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

It was a fun one today. There was a lot of talk about Dallas' defense coming into this game and Favre and Rice carved them apart. The Vike's defense stepped up huge and played the best game of the season. We're going to need to continue playing at this high level if we're going to sneak out of New Orleans with a win.

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Ray Edwards especially stepped it up when they started doubling Allen.
Favre will need to spread the passing around next week, because you know the Saints will be all over Rice.

Excellent game by Vikings today. Looking forward to next Sunday.

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Congrats Vikings! The NFC championship game is going to be awesome!

Born and raised here in MN. I bleed Purple. :D I really hope they get the one that Page, Marshall, Tark, Yary, Krause, Eller, and co. never could get.

They beat up on a team that was considered the hottest team in the conference coming into the game. They were able to get pressure and shut down a pro bowl WR (austin) and limited the damage one of the best TEs in the game did (10 catches for 98 for Witten, but no scores and a lot of it came late.). Edwards needs to be relatively healthy and be able to get pressure next week, though if the rest of the D-line steps up like they did, it will be fun to watch. They didn't get Peterson untracked, but if the Saints gear up to stop the pass, I have a feeling AD will go off like he hasn't done in a long time. Not sure that thay have the defensive personnel to bottle up both the passing and running games of the Vikes. I'm confident on the Vikes run D, but they need to get pressure like they did against Dallas to have a shot, especially with Winfiend not back to 100%. Being a road game is tough, but they can match up will on offense, and on the D-line. The game will be won or lost based on how much pressure they get on Brees. If they get him on the run and he doesn't have time to find his receivers, then I think the Vikes win.

As for the offense, well, I don't know that the Saints have the defensive personnel to shut down everyone else like Dallas did on Sunday. Can their corners match up? Favre had an atypical day on Sunday. Throughout the season, he's been able to spread the ball around a lot more than he did, but when his #1 receiver is getting that many touches, I'll take it. They have more weapons to use than they did in Sunday's game, and I'd expect to see them be utilized more.

I think it will be a close game, and come down to the amount of pressure the Vikes get on Brees, as I said before.

Skol Vikings!!!!

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

I think if the front 4 bring it like they did against Dallas, and Favre spreads the passing around more (Harvin and Shiancoe hardly had any touches), we've got a shot.
Chester Taylor was looking good too. He doesn't have the explosiveness of Peterson, but he's got better hands. That gives the Vikes a little more versatility when then drop him in.

Don't pack you bags for Miami yet. The Saints play their best against the hot teams and as far as Dallas beating the Saints remember it was only a 7 pt. win and the Saints were missing some key defensive and offensive players.

Tampa may have been an embarassing loss but again, the Saints didn't have all their starters healthy and on the field.

As for Carolina, that was more like a preseason game where none of the starters played and everyone else were auditioning for a job next season.

That being said, I don't think the Saints should pack their bags either. The Vikings have also played some excellent football and are deserving to be on the field this coming Sunday.

It should be a good one to watch...

Turf in his mouth,

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

That's funny. We've got the same thing too.

Saints on the ground,
Saints on the ground,
Looking like fools cause the Vikes put them down!!!
Turf in your mouth,

thinking you could rule that looking like a fool.
Walking around town with your heads hung down,
WHO DAT!?!?
Saints on the ground,
Saints on the ground,
Looking like fools cause the Vikes put them down!!!

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

:r
Don't you just love big games and all the smack talk that goes with them!
Good luck Vikings fans!

Just remember that Herm Edwards and The Rock both picked the Vikes... :r

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Vikings fans will show up everywhere if they win Sunday, the teams playing great and have a amazing offense, I'm a jaguars fan not much for me to cheer about.

For people who hate Farve root for the vikings to go to and win the superbowl, Farve wants to go out on top!

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Should be a good game tomorrow

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

we see tomorrow..:)

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

I bleed Burgundy and gold but I'm pulling for the vikings....I like the old man. THUNDER AND PLUNDER :banger

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

"Oh, when the saints go marching in-Lord, how I want to be in that number....When the saints go marching in"

You realize that the Saints in that song are marching into heaven (in other words, dead), right? :r

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Absolutely. :tu But I'd like to add that Saints fans plus Vikings fans combined have nothing compared to Dallas fans. They talked a whole lot of trash leading up to last weeks game. Funny how that turned out. :D It should be a fun one tomorrow. Both teams are coming off of convincing wins and are playing some fantastic football. I hope the game lives up to the hype (or the Vikings win in a route). :ss

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

LOL :r:r

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Grew up in MN and been a Vikings fan as long as I can remember. Skol Vikings!

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

I'm just glad we can talk smack in here in a polite and respectful manner as compared to some other threads I've seen. But then again, there have been some Vikings fans calling our local sports radio shows and talking trash.

I expect either a game that lives up to the hype... or another blowout win by the Saints. (They tend to do that to "hot" teams that are supposed to beat them.)

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

I have nothing invested in this one, but if I had to pick I'd go with the Vikings because I want to see Farve get on before his second to the last...last...last retirement.

Like Dallas? Oh, wait... :r

Anyone know if Percy Harvin is going to play tomorrow?

Last I heard was he didn't practice Friday. They still have him listed as Questionable.

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Hope he can play, I'm not much of a Vikes fan, but I am a Percy fan.

We need him. I don't think the Favre/Rice show will work against the Saints. We need Shiancoe, Harvin, and Berrian getting a bunch of touches too...

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

I will be rooting for the Vikes, even if Percy is out, hoping 2 weeks will be enough time for him to heal if they win. And Favre?....hey, I gotta root for the old guy. ;)

He's the Anti-Christ. But, he's also the best chance the Vikes have had since oh... 76 or so... :r

Fran?

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

All you Vikes fans can go spit! :D

GEAUX SAINTS!

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

Yeah. The Saints blew that game and lost by 7 points.

But the Saints defense was not healthy for that game or for the Tampa game. The last Carolina game was a throwaway because most of the starters were sitting on the bench.

And just how many games did the Jets and Giants win in New Orleans? And what were the teams that BEAT the Vikings?

Re: Vikings Fans....Where are you?
 

:tu Geaux Saints!:banger Saints Have Never Made It To The Super Bowl In All These Years. We Need This One Badly! Should Be A Great Game In New Orleans!:banger
