NFC Championship Game Thread: Vikings-Eagles

[soflavike]

With Rhodes hurt, how are we going to cover their WR's and Zach Ertz? One answer is pressure. We have to take some risks and throw more blitzes at Foles.

Blitz the living dog spit outta them. What are they going to do?...make us pay. Yep time to blitz

Well, we've seen what happens if we just do a normal pass rush and let Foles throw downfield. It's not working too well. Harrison Smith cannot cover Ertz, Rhodes is banged up, Waynes has been in and out. Our secondary is looking pretty vulnerable.

You got any better ideas?

[Mothman]

They have 30 minutes to win this game. They're going to have play great but it's still within reach.

They are getting terribly outcoached and it is embarrassing. If I were Zimmer I'd yell at the coaches as much as the players.[/quote]

Yes, and he'd better get more resourceful himself too. He and his staff have been out-coached in the last 4 quarters of football.

The whole team just needs to get their act together and put their best football on the field. We know they can play better than this.

Need to stop them on the first possession and then score 7 immediately.

With a quick TD, we are back in the hunt.

Don't need 7 but stopping them is most important, at least hold them to a FG.

Lol, Zimmer said we have to run the ball the second half. Thats effing hysterical when you look at the score.

Im agreeing with you. I wanna see rampant blitzing.

[tzinc]

is Foles a legit QB?
maybe Vikings can trade for Foles

NO QB CAN FUNCTION IF OL DOESNT HOLD

[Dmizzle0]

maybe disguise the blitz?

[PurpleKoolaid]

Maybe we can get Foles as our QB next year. He certainly is playing much better then case.

[VikingLord]

After that play with the TE blocking the blindside by himself Shurmur may be staying.

Yeah, who in the heck expects a TE to come across the field to block a DE?

[Gemfow]

I can't believe that some of you are blaming Case and wanting him to bench him. That's not the problem here.

Case doesn't play defense, and he needs to have his blind side protected. He got us to this game. Have a little faith in the guy.

You can’t blame Case too much but we all pretty much know that he isn’t the type of QB to stage a comeback. This game is pretty much over imo. I also like what Philly’s coaches are doing. They’re keeping the pressure on but if it was us we’d berunning the ball on first and second down for two yards a pop.

[VikingLord]

Wow, Eagles are playing so safe and the Vikings can't even slow them down much less stop it.

[Dmizzle0]

That's a generous spot.

[Knoxx]

It's over

[soflavike]

Wow. They're good and we're sucking bad.

Thinking I'm gonna turn this game off now, I cant take the heartbreak. :/
