We should not have this problem. We had the best return man in the game. 2nd best KR all time.

Yes. Don't know if he's been in yet though.

No penetration on run plays. None.

He had a giant opportunity to be a running back 1 last year and failed miserably

We know. Either way, that was a terrible call.

Thanks for that tidbit. Wrong as usual, as the ball hit his hands.

Except for the one two plays ago that Griffen stuffed for a 3-yard loss.

Or the one earlier that Sendejo knifed in and caused Howard to run into the pursuit.

Or the one Harrison Smith had for a TFL.

But no, other than that, no penetration.

You watched our offensive line last year, right? Our historically awful offensive line?

Is Murray/Mckinnin a better duo than Asiata/Mckinnon? Id think Murray is a better runner than Asiata but Asiata was always reliable as a blocker and receiver too.

What are the odds the Vikings are keeping a ridiculous 7 WRs to try and trade one to the Giants?
