All I can say is thank you Jesus. Our playoff chances just increased.

:toast:


so, my guess as to what the stat lines will be:

Jackson, MIN : 32 attempts 14 completions 185 yards 1 touchdown 3 Interceptions

Warner, ARZ : 36 attempts 29 completions 315 yards 3 touchdowns 1 Interception


Arizona 30 Minnesota 16

Well in the 1st qtr, Jackson has his bomb TD to BB and Warner has his int.

BB also took one to the bank on a punt return. right now looking like the Bears should have taken care of business on their own. It is still early though.

Cards - 0
Vikes - 14 midway thru one

Cards - 0
Queens - 21

The Cards heads' are clearly not in this game while the Queens are fighting for it. Boldin even fumbled a ball.

Another TD pass by Jackson, 28-0, 2 min left in half (1st).

Jackson playing, not like himself at this point. The bomb to BB was a perfect pass.

Vikes clearly taking care of business and Cards, well, they are just being the Cards.

This unfortunately puts us in a horrible spot. The Vikings win? They're in. So our MNF game against the Pack may not mean anything more than draft position.

Yeah, we would need a mathmatical tsunami....but it's still possible for a wildcard.

I hope Santa Claus leaves each member of the sorry-assed no account choking dog useless turd sucking numbskulls known as the Arizona Cardinals a huge steaming pile of shit in their holiday stockings

I now want the Cardinals to lose their first round playoff game by 50+ points

Don't worry - the Falcons can beat the Vikes, and likely will.

How am I so sure? I'm jinxing him - I picked up Tarvaris Jackson for my FF playoff game this week, so he definitely won't repeat his performance from last week! :evilgrin: :frustrated:

I'm more worried about the Giants game. Theire "playoff" game is this weekend against the Panthers since it will decided who gets to be the #1 seed. After that, there's no incentive to play their starters against the Vikings.

Did no one see what the G-Men did at the end of last season? If anyone is likely to play their starters in a "meaningless" game, it's the Giants.

based on how the Giants have been stinking it up the past 2 weeks, I think Coughlin is going to ensure some quality time for the starters even if the final game against the Barney Boys from Minnesota has no statistical significance, which should mean a Giants win
