Chris Tomasson@christomasson Projected that the #Vikings will get a sixth-round compensatory pick for Teddy Bridgewater, a seventh-round pick for Tramaine Brock and a seventh-round pick for Shamar Stephen. Andrew Krammer@Andrew_Krammer #Vikings projected to get a 6th and two 7th-round picks. Lost a big one in compensatory formula with Bradford's cut date in AZ.

Maybe Philly 2ndary is better in the playoffs, or maybe they didn't play as well when Wentz played, skewing their stats down a little bit. I thought LeBlanc made a few really nice plays for Philly.

QB's are like China dolls now and WR don't get their heads taken off any more across the middle. I like defense when you see a serious pass rush or excellent DB play. I don't consider good defense having the other team be stupid and run on first and second down non-stop, as Seattle seemed to do yesterday.

Speilman's trouble is he has a great draft one year and the next year he tries to get cute and it backfires.

I have more faith in Speilman making corrections than I do with Zimmer. I would fire Zimmer, keep Speilman.

quote: ORIGINAL: Mark Anderson quote: ORIGINAL: Brad H quote: ORIGINAL: Mark Anderson quote: ORIGINAL: Brad H quote: ORIGINAL: Bill Jandro Brad, that's a strong point regarding most qb's getting rid of the ball quicker in today's game. However, when a team is down late in the game that is when a pass rush becomes more valuable. QB's do hang on to the ball longer trying to make something happen. I still value a good pass rusher. But we're paying TWO 13 and 11ml next season. With the emergence of Weatherly I think the prudent thing to do is move on from the aging Griffin. unsure if he has much trade value at his age coupled with a rich contract. I think good DT's are paramount to stuff the run. I have no problems with having a great pass rusher. I just don't happen to think it's as great of a need as having great corners. A ton of average defensive linemen have been made to look great by having great corners. Not many corners have been made to look great because of a great defensive end. Bears corners in '85' and this year are one example off the top of my head. Carl Lee, Reggie Rutland(before he changed his name), Jimmie Hitchcock, Corey Fuller all looked great with stud pass rushers. Does anybody who isn't a diehard Viking fan know who these guys are. Most NE corners during their dynasty. Lee played in the 80's and early 90's, making three Pro Bowls. He was one of the top 3-4 corners the organization has ever had, and one could make an argument for him being the best ever. He, along with Isaac Holt and Joey Browner made for one of the best back ends in Vikings history. Nonetheless, the conversation was how football has changed into a passing league and how defensive linemen are now nearly irrelevant (IMO). Donald and Mack will probably 1-2 for DPOY. I doubt any CB will finish in Top 10. Yes. CBs are important. You need a lot of competent guys with teams going 4 wide alot of the time. But, to say that DLineman are irrelevant is crazy. DLine is irrelevant? Sure, if the QB has 6+ seconds to throw he wont find anybody open. Good WRs can beat the best DBs with a good route and ample time for the QB to find them they will eat the defense alive all day long. Pressure on the QB is essential along with good DBs. Sometimes you get coverage sacks. Good DLines make good QBs rush throws with makes them off target more likely to pick etc DLines are hardly irrelevant.

But how can you not like Big Dick Nick Foles? Loved the story last year and maybe it'll keep going. Thought there were some great games over the weekend. Shame we couldn't get in, but, apart from the Texans, the teams seemed to be on a different level of intensity. Gotta pull the plug on Zimmer. (I'm home sick today, so I'll see about an avatar change...)

I like the Eagles team. Players that you can rrot for. I now despise and will forever despise their fan base.

Lars -> RE: General Vikes Talk (1/7/2019 3:38:32 PM)
My $0.02/2018 post-mortem: The Bears are what we thought they were. They are a team that plays decent defense and keeps the score down. They also don't score a lot of points on offense in their own right. If you can match their physical play and not give them short fields/defense scores, you are in the mix. PHI was the perfect team to go in there and knock them off. They were fools for not letting the Vikes and their weak OL win in week 17 to get them yesterday. CHI losing - and with the double doink - was glorious. **** Chicago. SEA should have won but was too stubborn to adapt in-game. DL vs. CB is chicken vs egg, IMHO. Good TEAM defense is what works. The units all have to be good and play well together. Otherwise, good OC and rules favor the offense. If you made me pick, I would take DL. Need to be able to stop the run and get after the QB. Ask Eli and Tom Brady about that. And the rules have become wwwwaaaayyyyyy more in favor of passing in recent history. Just look at QB stats and compare them to 5, 10, 15 years ago (which is still in the 2000s). It's insane. Defenders that play smart, physical and fast is where it is at - from CB to DL. DET is gonna be a grease fire this year. I think you will see GB struggle again. CHI will not repeat at 12-4. Need lots of resources to OL and coaching. The rest - from Barr, Rudolph, etc. - will work itself out. I will be rooting for Indy during the playoffs, and also LAC. I like Rivers. I will never root for the Saints. I hope PHI (who I am no fan of) crushes them in their own stinking house. I will root for LAR over DAL. Anyhow, peace and health to all in 2019. I hope they right the ship and the Vikes get back on track. SKOL!

Hopefully Maddox takes the lesson. Apologies to Brad, but Brees like all good QBs can only be stopped by pressure. Hope Philly smacks him around.

Now that he's got good corners, he's suddenly gone from relative obscurity to a pro bowler. As for people backing me, I could care less. If everyone wants to be wrong, have at it.

So Matt LaFluer to the Packers as their new HC. I guess I'm ok with that, I didn't see Tennessee as a dynamic offense. They couldn't figure out if they wanted to use Derrick Henry or Dion Lewis. They made the playoffs last year, so not sure that he was an upgrade, which is good for us. I'm sure the Packers hope they found the next "BE YOU" coach. [:D] Dirk Koetter to the Vikings? Hmm, he seems to have offenses that can put up points. I still can't believe the Bucs went into New Orleans and beat them in Week 1. I also must acknowledge that I was not upset that he went with the "hot hand" approach at QB, though "experts" claim it is a bad idea. Why is it a bad idea to pull the guy who sucks?
