lolzzz well in that case 5-10% is too high!
I think it's about right. If you give the Pats 50, the Steelers 20 and the Saints 20, you still have ten percent left over and the Vikings claim most of that lol

of course that's intentionally oversimplifying it but I do think they have a 5% shot. That's not much but it is a chance.

I've been a Vikings fan for more than 40 years, they have no shot, they will find a way to lose!

Truly think the Falcons/Eagles will be the best game. Foles will play better than expected but once again the Falcons will win.

The Saints/Vikings, not sure the Vikings offense will keep up with the Saints.
Pats/Titans - yeah right...just remember all that success Dick Lebeau defenses have against Brady? I think we can count them on zero fingers.
Steelers/Jags - If Ben doesn't throw 5 int's they should win.

Vikings D is legit, I think that game will be more low scoring than people expect

Oh yeah should have prefaced. I don't think the Saints will score 35 but even at 24-28 pts not sure the Vikings can put up more. It will be a fun game to watch Brees vs the Vikings D but overall I really think the Eagles will give the Falcons more of a tough time.

I'll take Falcon/Eagle for a $1000 Alec!

True homer pick but I'm ready to watch the Eagles shut some folks up......

If Vikes give up 28, they'll be in trouble.

The most points given up at home by MN this season, 19....(which was vs Saints and they got a garbage TD at end)

I know week 1 means nothing, but we have a trend.

They held the rams to 7 points....

As the week goes on, im gonna like the Eagles more and more, cause already it seems everyone is loving the Falcons a little too much

I can see a jacked Eagles D make some game changing plays, and Foles playing better than most expect

Best way to beat Brees is to keep him on the bench.

I think our offense will need to stay on the field, no doubt there.

I'm expecting close game, 24-17 Vikings

It's gotta be Saints/ Vikes for me. I love how everybody, everywhere is counting out Keenum still. I agree that he ain't no Drew Brees but he really doesn't have to be. There's enough complimentary guys on that offense to get the job done and that defense is the best in football, imo. I like it's balance more than the Jags. The Saints could still go into Minny and win but they will need to play perfect. They need to run better than they did yesterday for sure. Should be a good game.
I know everyone is talking about Big Ben's 5 int game and the Jags maybe beating the Steelers but I think LeVeon Bell will run the ball on the Jags and the Steelers will score points. Bortles is absolute garbage, Fournette doesn't really look right and I don't think the Jags can score enough unless their defense scores a bunch. Ben won't miss open receivers like Tyrod Taylor did. The D might keep it close for awhile but I doubt they can win this all alone.
Falcons/Eagles might just surprise us and be entertaining but the Eagles just don't look right anymore. If Foles shits the bed, this will be a long, shitty day for their fans after such a promising season.
Is there really much point talking about the Titans/Pats match-up? Would like to see an upset but just can't even imagine any way the Titans stay in this game.

Vikings have more than a "tiny" chance.

Saints are 3-5 on the road and they'll be playing in Minnesota. The middle of the field wont be wide open like it was vs Carolina and we can beat your blitzes

With that said, it'll be a good match up. I think winner goes to Super bowl
This is the playoffs. Drew Brees is a battle tested vet. Keenum, not so much. We saw how the Rams played in their playoff game. They were a different team than what we saw during the regular season.

I wouldn't be surprised at all if the Saints win this game.

Me neither, but some acting like it is foregone conclusion that NO will win is what gets me

I think MN will win, but I'm a MN fan. This is the matchup I didn't want

This will be a great test for the Vikes, pass it and we'll know if they're legit SB contenders or not

You mean like their first game this year where the Saints were held to field goals until a meaningless garbage time TD at the end of the game?
