the level of confidence http://www.vikingscheapshops.com/cheap-authentic-brett-jones-jersey was waning significantly prior to last week, and with good reason. An ugly, ugly loss against Buffalo and a shootout loss to Los Angeles dropped the Vikings’ record to 1-2-1, and the team appeared to be a far cry from what many were expecting going into the season.Apparently, getting a win and a small measure of revenge over the defending Super Bowl champions was enough to get things back on the upswing.With their 23-21 victory in Philadelphia last Sunday, the percentage of Vikings fans that felt they were confident in the direction of the team has more than doubled. Going into Week 5, that number was at just 33%, but now the number is at 70%.Fans of their opponents this week, the Arizona Cardinals, are not nearly as confident.According to our friends over at Revenge of the Birds, in what appears to be a bit of a strange trend Mike Remmers Jersey , their confidence in the team appears to have dropped following a victory. The Cardinals picked up their first victory of the season last week with a win over San Francisco, but while their level of confidence going into Week 5 was at 33%, their confidence level going into this week’s game sits at just 18%.Both teams, at this point, seem to be in agreement with their projected results of this week’s game at U.S. Bank Stadium is going to be. Vikings’ fans, on average, are predicting a 9-point victory, while Cardinals fans are projecting that their team will lose by 7. Hopefully that will come to fruition this Sunday.Vikings Antwione Williams Was Fined For Roughing the Passer Against Jacksonville Jaguars NFL fans don’t need more reasons to not like the new tackling rules that they have introduced, but this new rule seems to be the gift that keeps on giving.Viking Antwione Williams was penalized and fined because of the confusing new rule and he, like us, are not happy about it.The penalty came when Williams used his body to tackle the quarterback to the ground. While the rest of the world sees this as a normal hit Cheap Everson Griffen Jersey , the NFL now says this is roughing the passer which is now a penalty and a fine. I understand wanting to make playing safer for the longevity of the players health. That should always be the first concern. But since the NFL is not going back to the ways of old like we all want, they need to extremely clear on the new rule as to avoid future confusion.But the lack of clarity on the new rule continues to show. SB Nation found that, “Through two full weeks of the preseason, as well as the Hall of Fame game, there have been 51 penalties because of the helmet rule, an average of 1.5 per game, mostly called against the defense (43).”We may not like this rule but it is here to stay. Hopefully clarity comes through from the top and they can go back to playing and we can go back to watching with no confusion.***Edit from J-Dog***It wasn’t known until a little earlier how much exactly Ant was fined for the penalty, but Ian Rapoport had the amount on Twitter:Quite the pretty penny for one of our backup linebackers.
