Re: Week 3 Reaction Thread

October 1993.....as far as I can find is the last time a Vikings defense has shut out an opponent. i think it matters......especially in a one score game in crunch time. yup, We've gotten shut out by the Packers in 2007 and obviously by the Giants in the 2001 Playoffs. We shut out the the Buccaneer...

Re: Week 3 Reaction Thread

I am trying to keep myself grounded. I felt great after week 1, then i was angry and miserable during the week 2 game as i was slammed back down to earth. Luckily the Packers got destroyed and helped me feel a bit better. This time I am trying to temper my excitement for a few weeks. So far this sea...

Re: Vikings-Steelers Game Thread

I didn't tottaly expect a win but I did expect much better than this... everything changed when Robison jumped offside. I was glad that we showed some life in the second half, that didn't last.

Refs have been tough on us.

Disappointing.

Going to be a tough game next week also.

Re: Have to be disciplined against the Steelers this weekend

I was thinking Wayne's and a safety on Brown. (Wayne's is faster) and Rhodes take our their second best receiver. Would be good if Kendricks could mind Bell most the game otherwise Gedeon may get abused.

I'm sure Zimmer has plan. Can't wait til Sunday! SKOL!

Re: Week 1 reaction thread

Waynes is nowhere near Chris Cook. Lets not forget all the plays Waynes made last year as well and how he won us the game vs. GB at home. Chris Cook never had an interception in his career. He literally never made plays. Waynes does. It's just I feel that since Rhodes is such a shutdown CB, everyon...

This is odd to me. Seems to me that Cook was the 3rd or 4th best offensive player just on our team Monday night (Bradford>Diggs>Thielen/Cook...). But and impressive debut nonetheless and i will never turn down accolades.

Re: This cannot happen!

I'm pretty mellow. Usually just lounge and watch the game quietly unless something really good, really bad or really stupid happens. The wiff is usually more emotional than i am. But we were both dead silent after the Blair Walsh miss.... Was at the game this week and I was also on my feet most of t...

Re: Saints @ Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 1

SKOL! Going to the game this evening. After all the other games this weekend, seeing how good some bad teams (from last year) played and how flat some good teams played it made me lose some confidence. I am sure that it will build back up throughout the day. These first few weeks are really going to...

definitely over.

Maybe the poll should've been for 30 TDs

Re: Will the Vikings Win 9 Games Or More?

Voted Yes I feel like we made some key editions this off season without losing much of our core talent. Also, the vikings always do opposite of what is expected of them. Last year they were a dark horse super bowl pick, and they blasted our of the gate and fizzled. This year they are "power&quo...

Murray vs. Cook

I feel like this would be an interesting topic for discussion this summer, up until week 1. Who is going to be the #1 RB / Starter week 1? Latavius Murray or Dalvin Cook? Here is what Murray has to say about it. "If I'm looking at it from my perspective, here I am, already behind in a sense, go...
