    Williams is practicing this week and will play according to local news

    Jackson is cooked. I would be curious to see his drive charts over the past 2 years. His ability to take a team down the field with a sustained drive is very poor.

    Good info. Bastards at NFL.com mislead me!

    Trust me and take the Eagles -3 or 4 or 5. Seen every Vikings game for the last 10+ years. I went Giants +7 right away last week and that payed off big. Jackson and the O-line won't be able to hold off the Philly blitz and Peterson has his fumbling problems. He fumbles at least once against the Eagles. McNabb 4-0 all-time vs. Minnesota. Vikings barely beat the Giants second and third team on Sunday.

    Philly 27 Vikings 16! Philly stops the run pretty well...they have all their receivers together finally and McNabb is playing well! Only thing that concerns me is the Eagles playcalling and inability to run the ball in the redzone and 3rd/short but Minnesota will turn it over & probably set them up for atleast 1 score!

    The Vikings fans don't seem to like it at Youtube. It's currently rated 1 star...

    Give us one reason why we should be optimistic? Maybe the Wolves won't blow a 29 point lead next time? Maybe the Twins won't trade Mauer and Morneau in a few years? Maybe the Wild will make the playoffs again in the next four years? Maybe the Vikings will find a way not to choke in amazing fashion in important games?

    I said it time and time again... Vikes no only cover but win outright. Best of luck this is a classic trap. I will not give my reasons again as I have said them several times already. That being said, I will be taking the points and not playing the ML. BOL!

    Philly is perfectly capable of laying an egg. That's about the extent to which I have capped this game, so I still have quite a bit of work to do tonight. Early lean: Vikings.

    Tavaris Jackson may be the only rookie QB this weekend that will not succumb to the pressure of his first playoff game. First of all, he's playing at home. And secondly, the game will not be on his shoulders, even if the Vikings fall behind. It will up to AP, so Jackson can be more relaxed. (Flacco, on the other hand, may get the rookie welcome to the postseason).

    Philly road record:
    week 2 37-41 loss at DAL
    week 4 20-24 loss at CHI
    week 6 40-26 win at SF
    week 9 26-7 win at SEA
    week 11 13-13 tie at CIN
    week 12 7-36 loss at BAL
    week 14 20-14 win at NYG (*the NYG 'Plaxico Burress' week)
    week 16 3-10 loss at WAS

    This is not a good road team. Just one win against a winning team.

    Sure enough, the media called the loss at WAS 'inexplicable'. Let me guess. Because they had beaten the Giants?

    You're right.

    Why did I think of him as a rookie?

    Great!
