Previewing the Lions VS. Vikings Game

Week six is only a few days away and since it's mid-week I thought I would give the Vikings game a quick analysis.

Minnesota coming off a win last Monday vs. the Saints are facing one of the shameful teams of the league named the Detroit Lions. With a win on Monday, Minnesota improved their record to 2-3. Detroit has yet to win a game and is at an embarrassing 0-4.

Gus Frerotte has proven to be the veteran leader Minnesota desperately needed on offense. Yes, sometimes he's inconsistent but honestly-- Can it get much worse than Tarvaris Jackson as your starting Quarterback? Answer: Not really. Frerotte thus far has nearly 700 yards along with two touchdowns.

As for the Detroit Lions they were absolutely crushed by the NFC North leading Chicago Bears 34 to 7.
