Please stop being absurd. The more you fight it, the sillier you sound.

I'm down by 9 I have ADP and the Vikes D... he has Chestah.... I think I like my chances....
Just read this in the MN paper - http://www.startribune.com/sports/vikings/12536356.html - looks like ADP should be fired up for tonight.
Sid Hartman: Rookie aims for another big day vs. Bears
On Monday, Adrian Peterson will look to run like he did against the Bears in Week 6, rather than how he did when he was held to 3 yards by the 49ers last week.
In the Vikings' 34-31 victory at Chicago on Oct. 14, Adrian Peterson rushed for 224 yards and three touchdowns.
Asked what he recalled about that game, the first-round draft choice said, "I remember just leading up to the game, I was really detailing everything we practiced, and really being sharp and really just seeing the same thing on Sunday."
The Bears (5-8) are not the same team they were a season ago, when they won the NFC title. A number of defensive players have been sidelined by injuries, and they will start their third quarterback this season Monday against the Vikings.
The big question is what Chicago learned from last week's game, when Peterson ran for only 3 yards on 14 carries at San Francisco. No doubt the Bears will do a lot of things the 49ers did, and they are a much better team than San Francisco.
Peterson will play his first NFL prime-time game. He will try to avoid having another game like last week, which he called the worst of his life. "But I learned a lot from that game. I took a lot away from it," he said.
While the Vikings were able to rush 43 times for 311 yards in that Week 6 victory, Tarvaris Jackson went only 9-for-23 for 136 yards and one TD. If Peterson fails to put on another great show, Jackson will have to play a lot better than he did the first time he saw the Bears this season.
Not sold on Peterson
When asked where Peterson ranks among the best backs he has faced, Chicago defensive end Alex Brown told the Chicago Tribune: "He is not like Marshall Faulk, he is not like Shaun Alexander, not like that. He's good, really good, but you can't base stuff on one year. In a couple of years, when I play him again, I'll put him in a category like that, but not now."

My chances for the Super Bowl ride on Peterson in all 3 of my leagues. In two leagues I need AP and the Vikings D to score at least 7 points for me to advance. I need AP to hit 55 in my other league (curse the Bucs defense!!!!).
I figure I would be satisfied making the title game in 2 of 3 leaues……

Minnesota isn't a lock for the playoffs, are they? With the Redskins winning a Vikings loss would give them the same record, and they play each other next week. I can't tell if you're joking or not, but those predictions - and the reason for them - seem a bit off.Ni

Other things to consider
o the Bears remember ADP shredding them the last time they played? Do you think they want that to happen again? Did ADP average 0.21 yards per carry in his last game against a far worse defense geared up to stop him?I don't care if people disagree with me, but why don't we get other people to put their neck's on the line with some projections.

I think he will score just enough to beat me
175 total yards and two TDs as I cry myself asleep. Once again the highest scoring team in my league only to lose in the playoffs

I am up by 11 points and have Berrian or C Taylor. My opponent has AP and the Vikings Defense

Close to my situation -- I have a strong lead over my opponent in our league's final four. Our scoring is somewhat heavily TD-weighted. Basically, if the Viking Adrian Peterson doesn't score 3 TDs, I should be safe ... unless he goes for 200 yds and 3 TDs or something like that.But for most potential "decent game" perfromances from him, my win will hold up -- 120 yds and two TDs would put my opponent close, but still a few points short.I think he will score just enough to beat me175 total yards and two TDs as I cry myself asleep.

Need 32.8 out of ADP / MINN DST in a PPR league to make the Superbowl in my low money ($50 / 12team) league
Need 4 out of MINN DST to make the Superbowl in my bigger money ($250 / 16team) league
:fingerscrossed:
My honest prediction is 140 yards / 2TD for ADP... I think he pops 2 in and sits for the last quarter or so once the game is out of reach and Taylor reels off 100 / 1 between a few carries early and some garbage time late.

your prediction is already wrong and Minny has only had the ball for a few minutes in the entire 1st quarter
I'm up 101 in the div playoffs. (Go bucs D and Scheffler FA pickups!). He has ADP left. When ADP broke the record he scored 92 pts. So no record tonight and I should be safe...
