Vikings better?

jn671 · 11-29-2009, 06:12 PM

Watching the Vikings vs. the Bears games, I heard the commentators comparing our saints and the vikings an awful lot. They had good things to say about our team, yet would stress that the vikings are a tad bit better. Stating that the vikings have the run game that the saints dont or saying how balanced the saints are yet the vikings are better because of their run game. theres alot more said but some i could not remember since i watched on and off. what do you guys think? do you find it as disrespect or just a mere comparison?

BS. That's the best description I can give you. Last I checked, we are still the number one rushing offense in the league. So, how the Vikes are better is beyond me. Just remember, if Brett Favre was not on that team, and Sage Rosenfels was starting, they wouldn't be getting as much press as they are.

I know the Vikings are really good and I hate them a ton.

I remember 1987. I also remember 2000.

I think we end up with HFA, but if we don't, I want these guys and want to end their season. Something like 45-10 would be nice...

They are NOT as good of a team as we are.

Only one team can beat the Saints this year and that team is New Orleans...

Adrian Peterson is not the second coming of Sweetness. Not yet at least. He can't beat all three of our backs by himself. End of discussion.

I think the Vikes are really good just like us. Our offense is better. there defense is better(front 4 is unreal). I think whoever is the home team is proably who would win.

i feel our front 4 is pretty sick but we need sed back.. hargrove is amazing.. i think adding in mcray in the middle would add some valuable pass rush.

Vikings (11 games) = 1262 yards rushing, AP = 999 yds

Saints (10 games) = 1543 yards rushing
