What are the Vikings fans saying about the game Sunday?

[⚡Slumerican⚡ 4,824]

Just in case anyone is wondering 

Two evenly matched teams IMO, I will take the better qb. Atlanta wins 31-27

Wouldn't surprise me if we get our ***'s throttled at home, let the games begin.

(Julio is going to smoke Rhodes.

10 catches for 135 yards. 2 TDs

Rhodes with 2 PI and 1 illegal contact) 

Just a glimpse of how Vikings fans see the match up.. Its always interesting to me

Well **** lol. Usually it’s us who’s saying these things

[Ezekiel 25:17 12,058]

Not surprised as they are the most down to earth, realistic, doubting Thomas’s of that division.

[mattyicefalcon 4,059]

Skoll!!

[tywreezy33 192]

A lot of Vikes fans live in this area and non of them are talking trash. They know it's going to be a tough game for both sides.

[⚡Slumerican⚡ 4,824]

I actually thought Julio would have 185 yards 

[R_The_Great 3,144]

Only thing I am worried about is the Offensive line having enough chemistry to take on the Vikings D.  I don't have much faith in Freeman doing anything, besides his usual 30 yards.  Its going to have to be a lot of quick passes and going deep vs this defense. 

Falcons defense should do enough to win the game, its going to be up to the offense to get points

I’ve seen some on social media saying they’re gonna blow us out, but those are just the idiots. Seen some good fans and have actually talked to them and they see it as an even matchup as well, which it is. 

 

On a side note, just because it’s funny, saw a dolphins fan that thinks they’re going to blow out the ravens this weekend lol.

I’m not falling for it I reckon home fields worth a score wheather it’s a TD or FG.

For us too win we need to come out firing.

DQ mentioned that in his presser. They’re planning on It being loud and of course this is when a non-gelled offensive line can make mistakes for us.

Glad someone is paying attention.

Idk where the illegal contact penalty came from  he sounded quite sure about it lol

[FalconsIn2012 19,480]

This may be the first of two games we play against Minnesota this year.  Two teams built fundamentally different but strong across the board.  

If we played em 10 times, maybe we beat em 6.5 times

[The O.D.B 4,033]

I think this from two of their posters lays out in crystal what we need to do...

 

When the Vikings hold their opponent to 19 points or less they are 39-7 in the Zimmer era.
When the Vikings let the other team score 20+ points, they are 9-27-1 in the Zimmer era.

Atlanta has an 0-13 record when scoring less than 20 points in the last 2 seasons, and they are 17-2 when scoring more than 20 points (incl. playoffs).

well, just because they have some who ARE, doesn't mean we don't have some who won't as well

 

[ShmevinShmarris 2,625]

I live in Minneapolis and while most my friends are talking ****, most of the fans I small talk with are super humble. A lot say that they’re surprised to be favored by four at home

Tevin Coleman would have been really helpful against the Vikings and Eagles. Hopefully Ollison cans step up.

[Nobis_Ghost 179]

On paper these two teams are identical, this will be a very telling game. I believe it will be an indicator of how the rest of the season will go. I think our defense, all in Takk again, will perform admirably guided by defensive coach DQ. The offense has never had a problem putting up 30+ 35-7 Falcons in the upset of the week, we move to 10 in in the power rankings. We are 'misunderestimated'.

One of my neighbors down at the lake is a Vikings fan. He says the team looks awful and the Falcons will win easily.

I wish I had his confidence. I'm on the wait and see approach.
