Detroit in Indy (got it tivo'd)
SF in Chicago
and of course, Minnesota playing the Seahawks. The team Green Bay crushed. In Seattle instead of at home. Obviously that's the game I'm watching live. Here's some stuff from Paul Allen on KFAN's site on the game tonight brtween the Vikings and the Seahawks.

very cloudy and chilly at 11:02 a.m. Cappucino Capital time.
new radio analyst Pete Bercich has done some extensive film work of the vike's first two games and offered these opinions last night at dinner:
chad greenway is playing extremely well. very instinctive, well studied. EJ is handling the middle well, too. hutch and birk are getting along nicely and mckinnie's pass rotection is solid. bryant, though, "won't mix it up" on run plays to the other side of the field and doesn't seem interested in getting down the field in case a play cuts back. right side of the o-line is still a problem but pete feels they can work around it.
kenechi udeze is struggling. he's looking like nothing but a run-stuffing DE, which would not have been worthy of a first-round pick. ray edwards is playing pretty well but does not have an arsenal of moves, so his preseason success may not parlay to the speed of the regular season.
teams are picking on ced. griffin. they are passing to his side and running at him and his tackling has been porous. he needs to play better this evening.
winfield is off-the-charts good and reads pass/run better than anybody on the team.
for seattle LT walter jones (seven-time pro bowler) will miss his third consecutive game tonite and SLB julian peterson also is out. the 'hawks plan to play their starters well into the third quarter and coach childress is convinced they will be all out to right the wrongs of that debacle at GB. too, childress is excited to see what erasmus james brings tonite and told me yesterday he was playing "at a very high level when he got hurt last year." you'll hear that back on the pregame interview with brad about 10 min. before the game.
very much looking forward to tonite's tilt.
