To win they better bring there A game, or at least play better then they have the last couple of weeks. Stop the stupid penalties, and get that passing game going.

Defense needs to keep doing what its doing, but please tackle better then they did in the first quarter today.

If they bring there A game then yes they should be able to win.

Damn. That was a nasty injury to E.J. Henderson. Too bad.

The Vikings are looking really beatable though. Apparently that soft schedule has hidden some serious flaws. Hopefully the Bengals offense will be able to play well enough to exploit them.

You start the game thread, Cincinnati will get the win. B)

Yep. We're all doing our part here at the zone. The Bengals are lucky to know they can count on us.

I feel really good about this Minnesota game. You have to think the players are ready for another challenge and I think they will be.

Let another week of the prognosticators dismissing us begin!

Not so sure. NFL is a "what have you done for me lately" league, and Minnesota got embarrassed on both sides of their line. I could almost see a lot of people predicting the Bengals take care of business. And that's what worries me.

Nah, the Vikings "rebounding" from a tough loss to face the Bengals who are struggling to score points. We'll be at least 6 point underdogs. Under the radar. It's where we play best.

I do not like the Harvin matchup. He is very dangerous. With Crocker hurt, I like it even less.

I like our LB's to handle Peterson. He has slowed down a bit in recent week.

Minny had Loadholt taken off on a cart. We will need to hit Bret early and often.

I do like Benson running against their depleted D.

AZ gave a nice blueprint on how to take them apart.

There was the blueprint to beat the Vikings.

Pass the ball effectively against the secondary of the Vikings that is the weakest part of the team (although still good).

Build a lead that forces Favre to throw the ball and take the ball out of Peterson's hands.

Pressure Favre to make quick throws as he isn't half as effective when he doesn't have the time.

The injuries on the Vikings o-line don't bode well for them either and I can see Zim dialing up some blitz packages next week.

While I don't think our passing offense is anywhere near what Arizona's is, they didn't run the ball for sh*t and I think we will be in this game.

I honestly think we are going to walk away with the big win and hand the Vikings their second loss in a row...

Minnesota's secondary is totally depleted, I expect the passing game to be in motion as long as Palmer stays upright. I look foward to seeing Cedric run the f**k over Madieu Williams.

Thats what worries me. Will Jared Allen be contained? I hope so otherwise Carson could be knocked out.

Not sure what happened to the Vikings run defense in this game. Maybe they were overplaying the pass, but they gave up 113 yards on 25 carries to the 26th ranked rushing offense.

Perhaps the Vikings defense just looked really good because of the level of their competition thus far. Arizona was by far the best offense they have played this season. Regardless, I think Benson will continue to get his 30 carries/game, and Favre will watch most of the game from the sideline.

The Bengals don't resemble the Cardinals even a little, so I'm not sure that the Bengals should try to use the blueprint they gave. But Minnesota does look vulnerable, and the Bengals should be able to control the clock. Should.

Mojo check:

Buzzkill: Vikings slaughter us 34-13. (check)

Inflatable Bengal prick gone: (check)

Go to my brother's house to watch game on wall via movie projector hardwired into directv: (Bengals 3-0 so far, check)

Anyone else?

My son decided he didn't want to wear his CP jersey on Sunday. About 10 seconds after the pick, I ordered him to put it on. I believe the results speak for themselves. #9 Jersey on before the kickoff this week.....check.

Ha Ha! My five-year-old son wears his Carson jersey during games too. I'm thrilled the Bengals are giving him some memories that don't include Dad rampaging drunkenly through the house after yet another loss. JK.

Yeah. Dad's a happy drunk after a win.
