Viking Season 2015

[ANYFISH2]

Nice^^

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.

Wallace has been this seasons biggest bust, he drops everything that hits him in the hands. Johnson should get a chance at starting again over Wallace. He may not produce any yards after the catch but he does catch the ball!

WOW, that was just down right fugly, top to bottom side to...Wait just our side. I wonder if big Dave will let me take that bet back. ..lol

[fishersofmen]

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.

[reinhard1]

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.

Yep, Ponder 2.0.

Do you want to go Pheasant hunting now while the gas prices are still lower?

Fat lady hasn't sang yet, but she's not to far off..

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.

[fishersofmen]

I don't see any scenario in tonights game that has the purple coming out on top especially when considering the injuries to key players on defense. Hopefully it is not another complete embarrassment but it would not be surprising if it was.

[pikestabber]

Ah, what the heck. The trolls on here need someone new to poke fun at tomorrow. I'll take my turn. Vikes win by 4 in a crazy game with wild turn-overs, special teams plays, and AP getting a full head of steam. Skol, Vikes!

[reinhard1]

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.

[Bobby Bass]

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

[Big Dave2]

I suppose that was another one of those Minnesota moral victories?

[LMITOUT]

 

[ANYFISH2]

Absolutely not!!

We gave away scores 3 times by turnovers tonight, completely unacceptable.  Terrible loss. I don't think we make the playoffs now.

[Bobby Bass]

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?

[reinhard1]

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.

I agree, the turnovers were the difference in the game. The O line & D played better than expected. I"m not so sure about the last play as it took too long to develop IMO. That's on Norv

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
