5-0

Postby ThePurplePeopleEater » Sun Oct 09, 2016 4:11 pm

If the Vikings are not #1 in power rankings, I will be surprised, shocked, and slightly angry. (But ESPN is going to hesitate to put them at #1, I know that.) The Vikings have taken down offensive beasts in these past 4 games (Houston probably excluded), while establishing their own offense. At this point, if we're able to beat the Eagles, then the sky's the limit.

I don't care about ESPN power rankings. I love it when the Vikings are underrated - but it'll be hard for that to continue, especially if the Broncos lose and the Vikings are the final undefeated team left.

It's still hard to believe we're 5-0... this defense is truly something else.

That's true... if you guys beat the Eagles, then next up you have the Bears, then the Lions; which should be two easy victories. Of course, you have to face the fact that for undefeated teams, winning gets harder and harder after every victory.

The Packers are not offensive beasts anymore. They're probably the most overrated team in the League overall.

.. but complete props to the Vikes this year! I couldn't be more envious of that defense.

I can see why the Pats would be #1, but it was the Browns.

But Brady threw for 400 yards.

The Browns aren't that bad; I play as them in Madden and I always win. I guess that's probably just because I'm a bloody legend though...

But seriously, Brady, Gronk, Hogan, Edelman, and Bennett all showed their inner hoss in that Week 5, Browns or not.
