They’ll just guard Hock and barely acknowledge Irv.

I think Irv is talented. If defenders barely acknowledge him I think he can make them pay.

Just watched the Vikes/Lion highlights from earlier this year.

Metellus made a bunch of plays that game.
Not sure he shouldn't be getting more playing time.

Seemed like one of the only guys that game who was actually actively playing to stop guys short of the first down marker.



his plays have been limited, but metellus grades out as our best safety...he could be starting next year with bynum....

I don't think it's time to send hit man Harry out to pasture yet. Maybe we have to move on based on cap implications.

Didn't make Philly pay

maybe he'll be better against the 3rd linebacker...also, he'll be showcasing for next year's contract....

it sounds like there's a good chance that darrisaw plays sunday...dantzler, too....

I'd prefer they keep Darrisaw out for another week or two. He's too valuable to risk his long term health. Brandel has been doing surprisingly well and Det doesn't exactly have a juggernaut DL.

Yep, although Brandel and Det's DL IMO have nothing to do with it.

Darrisaw left the games in week 10 and 11. Inactive for weeks 12 and 13. See what research show about repeat concussions. Two more weeks - or longer - might be nothing in the big scheme of things, like if he has to quit football and is more susceptible to getting CTE.


Related, Evans had his third concussion and is on IR. I'd shut him down for the season.

During a presser yesterday, O’Connell sounded like Darrisaw was going to play….

I see our friends in New Orleans have been caught again,
this time faking an injury. Guess they're not completely over
Underhandedness yet

Was it worse than this?

Edit: It was as bad: https://www.espn.com/video/clip?id=35225676

The rules say draft picks could be taken away. That will help more than fines depending on the club, but maybe not if the run to a championship is on the line.



Todd M -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 6:53:47 AM)

Should be interesting. The least respected 10 and 2 team vs the greatest 5 and 7 team ever to take the field.

I think KOC will have their heads right.

Let's lock up the division and give the middle finger to all the doubters.



marty -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 7:33:50 AM)

Be the FIRST team to win their division !!!



drviking -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 3:21:12 PM)

No need to overthink it,

We are a good not great team, get to the playoffs and hope for the best



Bill Johanesen -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 3:23:54 PM)

We'll need an Anthony Carteresque performance in the playoffs, if we make the playoffs.

KOC got schooled by Campbell. Bonehead 1st and goal call, fake punt, 2 point conversion fail.



Mark Anderson -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 3:26:11 PM)

Is it too late to replace Donatell with Pettine?

You can't change a system this late but you can change the aggressiveness.



Bill Johanesen -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 3:27:33 PM)

Brady 329th career start vs some guy on his first start.

Fourth and 1 call in first quarter



Todd M -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 3:31:48 PM)

Chance we'll go 1 and 3 the rest of the way. Barely controlling our own destiny. Det probably drops one as well


But NOT fun. All those weeks saying we weren't the same team anymore

Different but same.



Bill Johanesen -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 3:33:50 PM)

Kwesi targeted the right positions in the draft cause the secondary needs a talent influx, although he might not have selected the right players.

Nah.

2-2 or 3-1.

I'm calling 3 game winning streak and we rest starters at GB. 2nd seed.

Playing at home next 2 weeks against floundering teams. Darrisaw and Smith probably back.

Your rah-rah/flip-flop posts have rung hollow anyway.

And what is "controlling our own destiny"? Last I checked, Philly alone has the opportunity to control where they play in the playoffs.

Fair enough.



joejitsu -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/11/2022 3:49:38 PM)

We SHOULD beat the colts and take the division, but we need to get really better if we want to make some noise in the playoffs. And I don't think we can do that as we currently are constructed. The defense is not ready for prime time, and KOC makes some really bad in-game decisions.
