Tonight the Vikes play the Saints to kick off the NFL regular season. All my life the Packers have been #1 and the Vikes #2 in my heart. Sad to say he two teams will not be neck and neck as they were last season. I want to make two predictions today.
#1 - Packers will win it all this year. Regular season could be a even a 12-4 year. (For sure 11-5) Rogers has a great team on both sides of the ball and they are young but maturing fast.
#2 - Farve will step out by the end of game #1 (yes tonight) or game #2.
Farve was begged to come back and his heart is there there anymore. Reality has caught up with him. His mind and arm can play, his body can't do a full season. Plus he really us the "old man" of the team and can't relate to all the kids on the field. He's a man from another time.
I have loved Farve play for so many years. The gunslinger has a hear of 12 yr old, but the body of a 40 yr old. Sad to say, but I think even he know really, really knows he is hanging on for all the wrong reasons.
So there you have it. My Kick-off thoughts for another season. Now play ball and let's see some long passes and hard hits already.
