		<description><![CDATA[Won&#039;t let me post my comments at all (no bad words in it either). Well. this team has actually been playing better as a unit the last (2)games. Improvement shown on most all aspects of the team. The Texans will be playing their starters as they would get home-field advantage if they won. We need to contain JJWatt,Foster,Schaub at all costs. Keep Schaub out of his rythm from the get-go. Don&#039;t allow 10-15yd.middle of the field catches. Play tight to the plays at all times. Limit PENALTIES to a minimum. This team has been evolving over the last 2 games and they know what is at stake with winning this game. They want AP to achieve his goal and THAT, in itself will spur them on. @True Vikes: My son, who just got back from Afghanistan, will be there as well, cheering on his team/AP. It would be great if he gets his RB record at home! GO VIKINGS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I hope Frazier and his staff spent every every minute they had at their disposal dissecting how Brady and the Patriots were able to put the smack-down on Houston. To me, it looked like normal Pats and sub-par Houston. Lets hope this week we have a sub-par Houston again and the best game of the season for the Vikings. I would be a lot more optimistic if we had Harvin, but this can still be done if: 

1. Ponder can keep his cool, avoid the rush, throw zero interceptions and not fumble while throwing enough 8-15 yard completions on first and second down to soften up the zone right behind the line of scrimmage so Adrian can have a better chance to break loose like he&#039;s been doing.
 
2. We can avoid costly defensive penalties like what happened last week in St. Louis. 

3. The pass rush steps up and brings down Schaub at least twice in critical situations. Jared needs to have a career game. The defensive backfield needs to take advantage and play smart and aggressive and stick to Houston receivers like glue, but avoid those pass interference penalties. At least one interception would help too.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[AP Record Breaker.

OTK is correct.  I had to keep trying to post time after time on the one.
I kept at it each time it wouldn&#039;t post, lost track and tried to get Smith into the Taxans team. Finally when I found out I couldn&#039;t type Dic-kersons name without changing the spelling, or spac ing in this case. Like OTK and couple of others say, watch the words.  Some day Mike W. will let people post.  Don&#039;t bet on it.

But bet on the Vikings and that great runner Adrian Peterson!!!]]></description>

and not throwing any interceptions, we have a chance. I am only saying a 

chance. FOCUS on Execution, not Records !]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[@OTK... You know what I meant brotha.  I don&#039;t want them to lose at all.  I especially don&#039;t want AP to lose.  But I am not sure this team can make it past anything playoff team during a playoff game while the season is on the line.  

IF we can beat Houston, I will have a great feeling going into GB and beating the Fudge Packers]]></description>
