Don't know if I can top last week's prediction. Got the score exactly right, and I almost had the quarter-by-quarter score right, too...
And, really, I've been paying more attention to the TWINS (How do you like THEM apples?!?!?!?) than the Vikings this week, so who really cares if they win or not? It can't really top a three game sweep of the White Sox anyway.
But back to football...I'm conflicted about week four. On the one hand, Gus Frerotte gives us an actual chance to make the playoffs and be a good team. On the other hand, Tennessee is a good team, better than Carolina, and we're on the road instead of at home.
I'm going to take the optimist's path and predict a win here, but only just.
1st 2nd 3rd 4th
Vikings 3 7 3 3 16
Titans 0 3 0 10 13
Peterson: 1 TD, 100 yards
Our defense: 4 sacks, 2 INTs
Ryan Longwell: our best friend
Games left in the Brad Childress era: 12
Minnesota Twins: outscoring the Vikings this weekend

Tampa Bay 24, Green Bay 14 (See, I was right - Aaron Rodgers isn't home free yet)
Philadelphia 31, Chicago 7
Bonus prediction:
Twins win the AL Central outright on Sunday
Last week: 3-1 (Apparently I know what I'm doing here - Vikes-Panthers exactly and Cowboys-Packers one point off)
Overall: 5-3
