quote: ORIGINAL: SoMnFan quote: ORIGINAL: Mr. Ed quote: ORIGINAL: SoMnFan So many of the sacks yesterday were "coverage" related. I know Stafford isn't great, but he does throw a great ball, with a quick release. He wasn't purposely holding it, he truly just had nowhere open to go to with it. When you can COVER, you can be pretty damn hard to beat. That Hill kid has a future. Big build, can run. Was another stroke of luck in picking him up. Speaking of pick ups... Am thrilled as hell that Beebe is active now. I wish Zylstra would get an opp, but Watching pre-season, Beebe is a guy that seems to have 'it' . Yep, didn't want people to think all I do is pull for small white guys, but damn, they can play. [:D] I loved that dude in preseason, happy as hell they gave him a shot And I also like that Cousins is an equal-opportunity ball spreader arounder. Still say Zylstra needs that chance now. Dude is big and capable. Could easily be the next Jordy Nelson. And to your first point .. have been noticing the size of our DBs is evolving, and to me, that's been the difference. You watch sidelines now, when they stand together, and our DBs are huge. Love that. D-Backfield is >>>>> now that they play Kearse in dime, are better when Alexander blitzes vs covers and Sendejo was out again.

SI.com Monday Morning QB I’m not sure if the Vikings’ defense is fixed, but it seems to be trending that way—Minnesota has held each of its last four opponents under 300 total yards, and it kept the Lions out of the end zone entirely on Sunday. When I talked to captain Harrison Smith after the 24-9 win, he at least intimated that earlier in the year, guys might have been trying to do too much. And now that’s calmed down. “We have a lot of really good players,” Smith said. “We all want to make plays all the time. And sometimes that can hurt you. When you just get back to just saying, ‘OK this is what I gotta do, I’m gonna go do it, and I know the guy next to me is gonna do it, the guy in front of me, he’s gonna do it.’ Then everything takes care of itself. You don't have to be Superman out there.” Smith pointed to Danielle Hunter’s 32-yard return of a Matthew Stafford fumble for a touchdown as a prime example. “That’s guys up front getting off the ball and getting pressure, and guys on the back end, linebackers covering,” Smith said. “And then once he starts scrambling, just everyone running like a madman to the ball. That's when opportunities come. It may look like luck but there’s another play in the game where Xavier [Rhodes] strips the ball, and we got three other guys swarming to the ball. Unfortunately the ball is just out of bounds, instead of us picking it up and scoring. But we get another chance at that later because everyone is running to the ball. Good things happen when the whole team is running like your hair’s on fire.” The Vikings were my Super Bowl champion in August, by the way. Sunday did make me feel a little better about that.

And the hustle. The dude got paid this offseason. Still flying around. The fumble return was 100% drive and hustle. More players need to play that hard. Forget just Player of the Week, he's a legit DPOTY candidate. I won't be surprised if he's the best defensive player in the game by the end of the season. No weaknesses. He's just as great against the run, he's totally unblockable, and he's still learning how to play the position. I'm pretty sure he only developed an inside move over the past 2-3 games... And he just turned 24 last week. He's younger than some of our players who were rookies last season... I was thinking that yesterday as well. Hunter is so rapidly transitioning from up and coming pass rusher to elite pass rusher to Goddamn force of nature who does so much more than rush passer, it makes your head spin.

I LOVE D players who want to score on returns. Tells you something about them.

Vikings/Bears has been flexed to Sunday Night Football.

Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/18/2018 8:37:59 PM)
Vikings suck terrible first half.

TJSweens -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/18/2018 8:42:43 PM)
Disoriented and disorganized. They look like a steaming pile of dog shit.

Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/18/2018 9:42:02 PM)
Anthony Miller , bears WR is a punk They don't have a great offense, no matter how much sack-sucking Cris Collinsworth tries to do. Excellent defense, for sure.

Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/18/2018 9:42:50 PM)
No one in the NFC is going to keep pace with the Saints, if N.O. stays healthy. Not even close.

Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/18/2018 9:45:47 PM)
And the o-line sucks-ass and the qb played like the steaming pile of dog shit

Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/18/2018 9:47:31 PM)
the big L on the road. Nice job getting them ready on a bye week [&o][&o]

ronhextall -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/18/2018 10:45:49 PM)
If I owned the Vikings I would tell them they have one more year. NFC title game or the door.

Mr. Ed -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/19/2018 6:35:06 AM)
You've seen Trubisky run around the last few weeks. Surely they watched that. And yet it took nearly a half to have someone be the spy. Why? The front 4 could keep him in the pocket? Dumb coaching.

bstinger -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/19/2018 8:00:07 AM)
Neither Zimmer or Flip are geniuses. They had 2 weeks game plan for this and I saw nothing that made me say wow, that was creative. The Bear's had all kinds of misdirection.

MDK -> RE: Vikes talk for Twins Fans (11/19/2018 9:01:11 AM)
1968. First year I followed this team. Followed them as they went to four super bowls and in each one, the great Bud Grant was completely outcoached and the team completely unprepared. Opening drive, still don't understand the placement. Instead of first down, Twins have 3rd and short......Vikings, in their typical creative, Katie bar the door, no holds approach, take the conservative play and get stopped and have to punt the ball. Would it have killed them to do a play fake and go deep or at least 20 yards down the field for a pass? Felt that was the play of the game and the play that sums up Zimmer's head coaching stint. He can assemble a defense but is scared sh**less of losing and so he tries to prevent loses instead of going for wins. So sick of this organization. 50 years of following the Vikings. And what to show for it.....nothing.

Vikes, Wolves, Wild twice, Gopher hockey twice. This was the suckiest Minnesota sports weekend that has ever sucked in the history of suck.
