Well, the Locks just doesn't seem too comfortable getting too far on either side of .500 when it comes to the NFL this year. After a 7-7 week to date (didn't profile the Raiders game due to lack of timely line), we right back where we started 15 weeks ago. Instead of 0-0, we're 106-106-7. Like kissing your goddamn sister.
Well, we'll try to make the over .500 push starting tonight in frozen Minnesota:
Three Star Special:
Chicago @ Minnesota - Line is Bear -7 - This game is just chock full of story lines - unfortunately, not many of them have too much to do with NFL playoff implications (aside from the Bears clinching a birth with a W). No, instead we have another will Brett play debate. We have a playing field that might be more frozen than the current relationship between Tom Coughlin and Matt Dodge. We have the potential debut of a guy named Joe Webb. We have the potential for an always fun "snow" game. And finally, we have hundreds of thousands of fantasy playoff match ups hanging on the performances of Adrian Peterson, Matt Forte and the Bears D (if you're somewhat lucky) or Jay Cutler, Sidney Rice, Percy Harvin or Johnny Knox (if you are not).
With all the chaos encircling this game - not to mention the insanity that has governed the NFL all season - how can we expect anything other than the unexpected this evening. When we get that sort of feeling in our demoralized (note: we're Giants fans) bones, then we take the points. Bring on the ice, bring on the snow, bring on Joe Webb and any other lunacy that can be conceived. Tonight will be certain to give you something you never thought you'd see. We'll take Minny +7. Final score is 27-23 Vikings. LOCK IT UP
