I thought the call on Bradford getting smoked was a bad call, but that hit on Diggs was excessive... good call.

Zero sympathy. Vikings have been played out by bad calls for years.

What exactly did the Cardinals do that was illegal on Diggs? Diggs was still trying to get away and run, and the player led with his shoulder, not his head.

Was correct, away from play and backing up, giving up. The Favre rule from .2010.

Peterson did not deserve a penalty, agreed. CP could have gone both ways.

I think it's safe to say that Forbath will be a fan favorite for all but a few weeks until he misses a 50 yarder in the playoffs. :lol:

"We need Blair!" :lol:

All I gotta say is we need to put some serious pressure on Palmer this drive. We cannot play soft and let him pick us apart.

I think I worded that wrong. I pretty much dont care how bad the calls were towards the Cardinals.

I don't think the rules say anything along those lines.

Not sure he can make a 50 yarder in practice... he is not known for his leg strength, apparently. As long as he can make a 27 yard FG to win a playoff game, he's an upgrade.

You didn't. I was gonna post about Minny's sympathy calls, but I saw your post which mentioned it, so I piggybacked.

I agree, but yeah...Vikes getting some calls today.

They need it!
