Weakness in the leg ! Lay off the wack tabacca! The guy has talent but, had a hard time picking up the playbook in cincy. If he could get that head right , the vikes could have a great reciever on their hands.

Personally I see the Vikes going 11-5 is that a Wild Card or Division or out of the play-offs at this point who knows.

VIKES could be 7-9 or 12-4 or anything inbetween it all depends on injuries and if they score TD’s in the RED Zone or settle for FG

PACKERS could be 7-9 or 12-4 or anything inbetween it all depends on injuries and if they can find a running game because if Rogers has to win by throwing 80% he will not make it through the season and their # 2 QB is a weak link.

Carl -

The only prediction I’m willing to make at this point in the season is that the Vikings will have a better record than the Packers.

Highly doubtful.

With probably losses coming this weekend, vs Arizona, @Seattle, @Chicago, @Green Bay, vs. Chicago, @ Houston, and vs Green Bay, the Vikes are at best an 8-8 team. Green Bay will win more than 8 games.

So you don’t talk to anyone in your own fanbase? That explains why Minnesota is so backwards.

@thankheaven

Why am I not surprised? No guts, that’s why.

@thankheaven.

So, you’re predicting 12-4 or 13-3 if he misses the rest of the year with his “unilateral leg weakness.” What if he comes back? 15-1? Let’s hear it, what do you think?

Guess he was just at the wrong place on the field at the wrong time when the injury happened.

Dodged a bullet there. The Vikings were only 3-1 without him so they clearly are desperate to have him available.

Can’t believe much that coaches say anymore. They want the Washington defense to prepare for Simpson in the lineup.

Bilateral leg weakness involves BOTH legs, hence the term “bilateral”. Simpson only had weakness in one leg.

I don’t know about that, bilateral leg weakness derailed Joe Mauer’s performance for a signficant stretch of the baseball season….

Will definitely need them both at 100% this Sunday. Even though Simpson did not have a catch last week he still draws attention which opens the field up for our other weapons. Good enough for us all!
