Westbrook to return punts, ISM kickoffs, Herndon will play. Udoh. All the new def faces … even excited to see the punter! Goddam I love coffee!




marty -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/11/2021 11:31:28 AM)

I am picking Cincy, but I am only right about 40% of the time.

I wonder if Cleveland will open up some new holes for Dalvin on the left side.




marty -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/11/2021 11:35:12 AM)

The Vikings have a new OC, changes on the OL, and many different players on the defense. Not just Cousins, but I am guessing other anti-vaxxers on the team has made a little bit of a schism.

Looking forward to the game, even though I have some reservations on the Vikes.




marty -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/11/2021 11:36:20 AM)

IF the game were in Minnesota, I could see the possibility of a lopsided game. On the road, seems doubtful.

OK Marty, put your money where your signature is:

If we lose, my signature line is, "I'm going with whatever Marty says"

With a win we could just reverse that to '... whatever Tom says' but, obviously, you should be doing that anyway ...

so if we win, your signature line is, "I'm going with whatever my cabana boy tells me to say"

Deal?

Sorry Tom, I would only do that on something I felt sure about, like Tampa winning on Thursday night.

I don't feel that strong about Cincy. Burrow looks good in highlights, but the Vikes should apply plenty of pressure. Could end up being a great game.




TJSweens -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/11/2021 5:23:38 PM)

Rest in peace Mick Tinglehoff

I didn't expect you to ... I'm just messin' around.

Trying to kill time. Can't wait to see the latest version.

Man… what a time it was..




marty -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/12/2021 12:20:16 AM)

Changed my mind after watching some Vikings' hype.

Vikes will be behind at halftime, but will make adjustments and win the game by a FG.




David F. -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/12/2021 11:11:28 AM)

Dantzler is inactive. Did our secondary improve THAT much?




marty -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/12/2021 12:22:22 PM)

Dantzler did seem unfocused, or just plain sucked in the preseason.

Oline a mess.........check

If you can't beat the Bengals, there aren't many you can beat.

Do we play the Jets?




Bill Jandro -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/12/2021 4:04:00 PM)

Here I thought Rashod Hill would fall apart about week 3

Instead he fell apart after about the 3rd snap




Bill Jandro -> RE: General Vikes Talk (9/12/2021 4:05:11 PM)

Spielman won't being giving any seminars on oline building anytime soon

I loved the play where it looked like he juked the defensive guy and just let him by

Since the starters didn't play during the preseason, it was hard to figure out what this team was going to look like. It only took one game to give us a good indication of how the year is going to go.

I think we can beat the Lions at home, and maybe beat the Panthers and the Bears on the road, but otherwise this team is sunk. After watching a lot of football today, it's apparent that the next two weeks are going to be particularly brutal as Arizona and Seattle are going to destroy us.

This defense against Murray and Wilson? Yikes!

According to Zimm, they just got to figure out how to play the C-gap. Then everything will come together!

IF the Bears lose decidedly, the Vikings could be in 1st place in the division after tonight.
