It’s tough because week 18 would be an ideal time to rest some hobbled guys and protect some others if the game were meaningless, which it isn’t. It would be nice if just one time, the Vikings could take care of business early on and maybe pull some guys in the second half. I mean, Nathan peterman is starting for the bears.
i understand you have to win the first game before you get a second one, but a trip to SF (or even Philly/Dallas at this point) would not, in any way shape or form be an ideal scenario. I’d guess the Vikings would be 10 point dogs.
