Chargers @ Vikings Game Day Discussion Thread -- Week 3

[Fran the Man]

I saw the score pop up 16-7 on espn way before my stream showed it.

What stream??

[IrishViking]

Nice little leap by Harrison on that play

i agree purple poet our line is lousy. but, can it only be a matter of time before teddy gets hurt? we had a worse oline last year and that didn't bother teddy he was great.

[dead_poet]

He's started to turn his back and get low before the contact. I don't know if you have followed CJ's career but his demise was tied with his fear of contact. He started folding before he even got hit. Patterson is now doing the same. He's done.

Settle down. That can also be explained by being told to hold onto the damn ball. He covered that up something fierce early. His first return today to start the game was normal.

[yezzir]

I think no one could have accounted for the fact that Patterson doesn't seem to have the fire in him to play. He is good at returning. I think he is more than happy to sit back, return kick offs, and collect a decent size check for running maybe 5 plays a game.

Agreed. Easy to disguise that fire in college. It's too bad. Oh well.

I am right.

Love the blitz on 3rd down.

I use first row sports

[PurpleMustReign]

the fact we are ahead at the half is a miracle we don't deserve to be. i'm beginning to believe teddy will be an average qb at best. he has yet to play a game this year that would make someone think that he has progressed into a second year qb.

I am having some doubts as well. He hasn't really taken command of the offense yet. In his defense, the OL gets him hit often, and that is really bad for a young QB to have to deal with.

[dead_poet]

There's a lot of judgement on Patterson's character going on. Not sure where that's coming from based on one or two kick returns today.

[dead_poet]

I am right.

Oh. Well ok then.

I noted this in the offseason…its crossed the line now. He's just here for a paycheck.
