Didn't see the Fins game yesterday, so not sure of the energy spent. But at this point I'm starting to believe that the Vikings just aren't that good.
I understand the theory that you are preaching, but I would buy into it more if they were playing a non conference/divisonal team next week. The fact that it's the hated Jets who they always get up for no matter how good or bad they are, makes me think your theory goes out the window in this case.
