Re: I think we should offer a 5th for?

2017 free agents usually make good trade targets as usually there is no or little cap hit for the trading teams. A lot of the younger players drafted in 2013 would not be free agents and instead enter their 5th year option most likely. http://www.spotrac.com/nfl/free-agents/2017/cincinnati-bengals/ ...

We can be the #1 defense next year

Even if all we do is resign Greenway and Newman, and have Newman convert to safety, I think this team has the talent to be the next defense in the NFL. We are very young on defense and if some young players can iron out some minor inconsistencies and take a leap forward as many young players tend to...

Re: I think we should offer a 5th for?

Bengals have a couple of OL in the last year of their contract. I'd look there first... But Zimmer knows the Bengals roster well enough, and the defensive players know his defense well enough that if he wants someone, go get them.

Re: Vikings @ Packers Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 17

Ellison is a key component of a gameplan that works well against a lot of teams, but won't work against Seattle unless we get off to an early lead AND manage to keep it... :wallbang: Bellichek is the only coach that has seemed to figure this out yet... Against a weak front 7 you power your way to ya...

Re: Vikings @ Packers Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 17

Here we go. Let's blame the protection on Teddy's STUPID play. Take the sack and move on. Favre did stupid #### like that all the time and pulled it off occasionally, so he was a "genius". I hated Favre for the longest time because of #### like that. On a side note, if Wallace continues t...

Re: Vikings @ Packers Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 17

Zimmer/Norv need to come up with a plan for situations near halftime. It should look something like 1)If we want a fieldgoal, let the clock run to 3-5 seconds and take a timeout. 2)if we want a hail marry, let the clock go down to 5-8 seconds (time for QB to run out of bounds or check down and get t...

Re: Vikings @ Packers Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 17

So if we tie we still can go and play Washington next week...
So far it looks like the Vikings are trying desperately to tie with their sloppy and conservative offense and their just do enough defense.

With like 6 defenders in the box? Garbage. When you have a back that can average 5 yards a carry with 9 defenders in the box on every play talk to me about what a quality runningback is.

Re: Vikings @ Packers Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 17

he's flashing the oop rental to be able to pass out of the play action when his back is turned and he has to make quicker reads after seeing only half the play develop.

Re: Vikings @ Packers Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 17

Why? You would theoretically have to deal with them or the team that beats them at some point regardless, if you want to make a SB run. I want to counter the logic that playing them later or a team that beats them is necessarily the same or worse than playing them now. Yes, playing a team that beat...

Re: Vikings @ Packers Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 17

I'd really like to see AD be the recipient of some designed swing passes or little dinks after play action where he is the primary guy. It would really slow down the run blitzes if they did something like that more than once a game IMO, and might make running the ball a half second more efficient. ...
