I wanted to make sure that we have a thread for Week 4 to discuss non-Viking games. Have at it!
Two big games that intrigue me:
Saints at Packers
Bears at Cowboys |

Maybe yours will be more successful than mine was last week...

I predict the real officials are back.
I predict all three unbeatens will stay that way.

I doubt the regular officials will be back, (these current guys are real officials, and besides the procedural are about as accurate as the regular officials), they still need to finalize deal and get them up to game speed otherwise the difference between the two will be moot. I actually suspect that if you look at # of complained about calls last year to this it would be similar minus the procedural mistakes, we just weren't posting about it in one centralized thread whenever a pass interference didn't go the way of our team. Also, I applaud the Vikings fans for acknowledging when our players have made bad mistakes on the field and not trying to pawn it off on the replacement refs like many teams fans have on this site.

the scenario exists that after Week 4 each of these teams will be 1-3.
who would have predicted that?

Very odd indeed.
I would be worried if I were the Packers. Granted the Saints have struggled, they still have shown an ability to put points on the board. With how the Packers are playing, can they keep pace if the Saints go in shootout mode. I would be very concerned if i were GB. |

That was real nasty looking. Lost his helmet, hit the back of his head hard on the turf, lost the ball and then got kicked in the face with a cleat. |

Rice is helping my fantasy team, Boldin is not.

I have to say, if I weren't a Vikings fan, I would be a Ravens fan. They play my style of football, and I like a lot of the players on their team from an off the field perspective.
Torrey Smith is a great story. I really admire him.

Brandon Bolden went off for the Pats in garbage time. I mocked him to us as a late round running back several times. Just a very solid overall back, he can run the ball, catch the ball, and is good in pass pro.
