Viking Season 2015

Im still not sold at all with anything on the Vikes except maybe their defense. They have yet to beat a team with a winning record. I will also say that Teddy looks pretty good also(No turnovers yesterday  while constantly running for for his life). That was the only thing that impressed me yesterday.

Diggs looks great on offense.  Rudolf looked good yesterday but that was yesterday.  The offensive line needs a lot of improvement.  Peterson is set to have a great season but that fumble he had yesterday was among 6 or so he has had this season.  Wallace should be benched and Johnson should replace him in my opinion.  Pattersons penalty yesterday with that head butt was one of the dumbest penalty's I have ever seen.  The defense is the bright spot on the team for sure.  good luck.

Most folks with any sense have understood that the Vikings record going into this game was inflated. The Vikings are just not very good. They will stumble into the playoffs and be taken care of rather easily in the first round. Christian Bridgewater has not only not improved but is slowly moving backwards. The defense loses a couple of starters and can't stop anything. Hopefully they can improve this offseason.

Yes the team was terrible today, worse than the 49'rs game.   The ref's bad calls were not the reason they lost but the refs had just as bad a game as the Vike's.  I'm watching the Panther game against the Saints and the refs are just as bad.  But again that's not why the Vike's lost.  They sucked the place up big time.  Just one of those games that you can't say anything positive.  Well we are 8-4 and so are the Cheeseheads.   The Bears lost today also but who knows they may still have a shot at the division LOL.  good luck.

Well the Vikings are on tonight.  Doesn't look good for a win, but you never know.  The defense is banged up big time and I'm glad there will be more time for the injured to heal after tonight.  The division is still up in the air however.  The Packers still are not the team they were last year.  I think Rodgers misses Nelson big time and he does make a difference.  Packers play Dallas, Oakland, Arizona and the Vikings in their last games so we will see at the end of the season who is on top.  good luck.

Ya, I'm optimistic all the time.  I just hope that they open up on offensive.  Tell Teddy to open up.  Throw long passes, get AP 30 runs a game.  Teddy is better in the shotgun, so do that also.  Trick plays ect.  Just go out there and not do the same plays all the time.  good luck.

I don't see Peterson getting 30 touches, to do that you have to put some drives together. I do see the D playing a lot and I see Arizona putting up some big numbers. This is just going to be one of those games you are suppose to lose. Defense is so short on healthy bodies in the secondary that Palmer is going to have his pick of targets. Of course I do hope I am wrong but this game is not going to play out like the Miracle on thirty-fourth Street

We will still make the playoffs, this was a game on paper that we should have been blown out in and we had a chance right up to the last few seconds. Wallace decided to step up and play some football, about time. A nine day rest and Chicago and Giants are winnable.. Packers don't have this wrapped up... Fun game as I listen to it on the internet feed and had my tablet tracking fantasy scores. When is the last time we had a good Vikings game in December?

I thought it was a good game by the VIkings.  Teddy had better stats than Palmer in total yards and the banged up defense played well considering 3 of the starters were out.   Everyone thought this was going to be a blowout, and not even close including the announcers of the game.  We still have a good shot at the playoffs.  Cheeseheads play Arizona also in a couple of weeks.  We will see how they will do.  I am tired of watching 1st and run with Peterson on almost every first down.  Every team knows that play by now so it's time to change things up.  good luck.

Vikes are 1-4 against teams currently over .500 (7-1) against everyone else.

I dont think the last play took too long to develop, Bridgwater just held onto the ball to long. I still dont understand with 3rd and long with no time outs to try and go for a few yards instead of kicking to tie. With the offensive line in shambles, Kalil whiffed big time (no one should be surprised by that either)

all they needed was a chance for a field goal long or not and they didnt get it. I dont think the outcome changes in overtime but it would have been nice to have the chance to see

    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
    • I haven’t done any leaf springs for a long time and I can’t completely see the connections in your pics BUT I I’d be rounding up: PB Blaster, torch, 3 lb hammer, chisel, cut off tool, breaker bar, Jack stands or blocks.   This kind of stuff usually isn’t the easiest.   I would think you would be able to get at what you need by keeping the house up with Jack stands and getting the pressure off that suspension, then attack the hardware.  But again, I don’t feel like I can see everything going on there.
    • reviving an old thread due to running into the same issue with the same year of house. not expecting anything from yetti and I already have replacement parts ordered and on the way.   I am looking for some input or feedback on how to replace the leaf springs themselves.    If I jack the house up and remove the tire, is it possible to pivot the axel assembly low enough to get to the other end of the leaf spring and remove that one bolt?   Or do I have to remove the entire pivot arm to get to it? Then I also have to factor in brake wire as well then. What a mess   My house is currently an hour away from my home at a relatives, going to go back up and look it over again and try to figure out a game plan.           Above pic is with house lowered on ice, the other end of that leaf is what I need to get to.   above pic is side that middle bolt broke and bottom 2 leafs fell out here is other side that didnt break but you can see bottom half of leaf already did but atleast bolt is still in there here is hub assembly in my garage with house lowered and tires off when I put new tires on it a couple months ago. hopefully I can raise house high enough that it can drop down far enough and not snap brake cable there so I can get to that other end of the leaf spring.
