Vikings @ Texans Game Day Discussion Thread --- Week 16

Showing Cushing on the sideline and selling this as a tale of the Texans losing because of injuries when Harvin and Robison are out is just crap from the announcers.

this was the most solid, complete game i've seen the vikings play against a good opponent since they beat the eagles in 2010 (i didn't see the SF game this season).

although he made a few boneheaded throws, the vikings can win with THIS ponder. he was at least somewhat accurate today and made good plays with his feet. lucky for him that last bad throw wasn't intercepted, but this was his best game since probably september.

You're reading too much into it.

I believe they mentioned a groin injury.
And if he extends said injury it'll only be more difficult for him to get all those yards next game.

Yeah, aot of us, or at least me, were just hoping for the rushing record since there was no way we would get into the playoffs. We are 1 step closer. Personaly I never thought it, not even as a dream. Im giddy as a schoolgirl just at the chance of it.

I really, really can't believe this. This team that went 3-13 last year has now dominated the two top teams in the league (according to many). Beating a 12-2 team on the road by three scores? That's just insane.

They were making excuses all game and saying that this game was "shocking."

Great game by all facets but the Defense was absolutely incredible. Go Ravens!!

Alright guys, ADMIT IT, Frazier isn't that bad. With a full offseason and a year under his belt...it can be promising.

frazier has done a solid job this whole season. most of our shortcomings were player talent related. i am very happy with the job frazier has done.

[Spiderbeavis]

Not one of the "Bristol Braintrust" picked us to win...eat it talking heads!!

No argument from me... I haven't been one of the boo birds.

[PurpleKoolaid]

What a win! On the road, agasint a dam good team, that also really wanted to win. Well done Vikings!

[John_Viveiros]

We may actually be favored next week. Think about that.

[Mothman]

Take what I said with a grain of salt, I'm not really listening to the commentators and I just heard groin in conjunction with Petersons lack of presence on the field.

They said he was nursing a groin injury this week. He's at 25 carries on the day and it's possible that he aggravated the injury and Frazier decided to shut him down and preserve him for next week.

They were making excuses all game and saying that this game was "shocking."

The Texans are 12-2 and have been a very well rounded strong team all season. They're also playing at home against an underdog with a terrible road win percentage. I'm sorry but most unbiased spectators would probably say this kind of victory for the Vikings is shocking.

i would hope not. we play better as the underdog
