how is it that the Eagles are locked into the #2 seed?  Doesn't either the Vikes or Lions still have a shot at #2?

No, because the loser of the Det/Vikes game will become the top WC team, which is the #5 seed.

why the extra on gift cards???

apparently if you get Visa type gift cards they charge fees of some sort...........get a target or other store card.........they dont charge. its what my wife told me anyway. think it was like 4 bucks per card.

  even from costco??  send a check then.. piss on that..

Come on 9er's!!     

yea it's whoever has the ball last the way it looks!!

Think I'll watch NCIS first!

[Gunner55]

Come on 9er's!!     

It makes no difference if they lose, if they win next week they still win the division & are the #1 seed.

Oh so your saying the Vik's going into next weeks game 14-2 against a team who lost their last game and are 13-3.  May not help on a confidence note leading into the play offs?

The Lions score 27 pts in the 2nd 1/2 & win 40-34.

If it wasn't for Purdy throwing those 2 interceptions I think the 9ers may have won. Neither defense could stop much of anything. I'm sure come this Sunday though the Lions defense will be exceptional.

If the Lions defense is still banged up and play the way they did, the Vikings should light ‘em up.  On the other hand, Detroit’s offense is pretty good. Final scores could be really big numbers. Hope the Vikings don’t go flat on either side of the ball.

[Gunner55]

I expect Detroit to blitz early & often to try to protect their beat up secondary. So, the OL, FB, & RBs will all need to have a good game picking that up IMO. Some of that can come down to something as simple as communication/not being able to hear because of the crowd noise. Their 2nd Rd pick was a CB & he could be back off IR as he's been there (hamstring) since before Thanksgiving.

Blitzing is not what they can do. It will expose their linebackers who are either hurt or bad. If they blitz, Jefferson & Addison will carve them up with crossing patterns. My opinion anyway.

I see there is no Thur Night Football tonight.  Games again on Sat this week.

Campbell is 1 of the most aggressive coaches in the NFL & it kind of burned him in their last loss to Buffalo with the onside kick early in the 4th quarter. I'm not sure how hands on he is with the defense though......................guess we'll find out.
