Guys,
What did I tell you guys about how the Vikings would struggle the last 3 games of their season because of the highly-ranked passing defenses of opposing teams?
I called this entire Vikings facade right from the start this year: Their O-line is an over-hyped sham and when opposing defenses do not have to blitz to bring pressure, the Vikings' offense is doomed to failure. Opposing defenses can leave everybody in coverage and "sit" on the runs.
Minnesota will never make the Super Bowl unless they can manage to face Green Bay and then New Orleans. Philly, New York and Arizona will eat them alive.
The really unfortunate and misleading aspect of this all is the fact Brett Favre is going to be blamed for having a late-season meltdown, yet nobody will have had the foresight (except me, of course, but I'm a cut above.) and common sense to see the pass defending rankings of Minnesota's last 5 opponents of the season, which really is the reason for the struggles in the passing game. This is not unlike the way Tony Romo is vilified for his December play, without looking at the opponents he is having to face. I think this type of coverage and reporting is very misleading and continue to be amazed at the high numbers of followers that have great difficulties thinking independently.
On that note, I look forward to an exciting post season and ya'll have a Merry Christmas.
