Welcome to the all new, super-duper unbiased self-critique on my prediction from the Monday Night Football game. If I can remember to do it, this will become a weekly feature.
If.
Well, let's see how I did...
I said the Saints wouldn't be able to run up the middle....22 carries for 55 yards. Score.
Jared Allen did NOT have a big game (1 tackle, 0 sacks), so he was not a factor. Push.
Reggie Bush didn't get a long screen for a touchdown. Swing and a miss.
But he DID get two of the them on special teams. SCORE.
Have the Vikings settled into Gus at quarterback and was this the week Bernard Berrian broke out? 19/36, 222 yards, 1 TD, 0 INT and 6 catches for 110 yards and a TD, respectively. Check and check. Scority score score.
Brees did put it up 46 times for 330 yards but threw two picks. Push.
And as far as the last point, the one about the Saints havinga poor rush D and AP being due for a big game........well, yeah.......um..........21 carries for 32 yards. Ssssswwwwwiiiiiinnnnnng and a miss!!!!!
Score prediction: Vikings 31, Saints 24
Actual final score: Vikings 30, Saints 27
Aside from totally whiffing on Adrian Peterson, I am going to give myself credit for a good preview and award myself an 'A-minus'.
Sound fair?
