If the Bears and Seahawks can't crack 20 against us, the no-WR Patriots won't be doing it either.
Vikes win 24-14.

This should be a good game, I want to see if Minn. can put together back to back games like there way they played Seattle, if they can it will be a close game.

It will most likely be a low scoring game, 17-13 or something like that. Vikes win due to home field.

Homefield advantage only works when at least two thirds of those in attendance are home team fans, which rarely happens in the Metrodome. I do, however, agree that it will be a low-scoring game. Both teams are very strong defensively, and both have become very run-oriented teams, at least since Seattle took both of their respective #1 WRs. That said, my prediction is 14-9 Patriots. I have been wrong a lot so far this year though, so we'll see.

You must not know much about the Vikings. Ever been to a game there? I have. It is mostly Vikings fans there. When I went last year, the one and only time I cheered for the Vikings' opponent (Steelers) the season ticket holders I talked to were amazed at how many Steelers' fans were there. They said we outnumbered the Packers' fans 2 to 1, and Wisconsin is only 20 miles away or so. My estimation was that Steelers fans were about 1/3 or so of the total crowd, maybe more...and the next team to us in attendance in the Dome was the Pack, so if they're 1/2 of what we are, then I'd say the Vikes almost always have over 2/3 of the crowd wearing purple and gold. They definitely will with the Patsies being the visiting team. They're not real popular around here, and they weren't anywhere till the last 10 years or less.

The Vikes have a definite home field advantage playing in that dome and the Pats will definitely struggle with all the noise there.

Patriots - 21
Vikings - 6
Unless our defense shows up bigtime, our offense falls flat on their faces without M-Rob in the redzone.
