There are actually rules governing this.

I know there have been "re punts" when the Jerry Jones mega screen in their stadium would get hit by a punt.

They should have been awarded a re kick.


It looks like you’re right.

quote:

Hitting objects over the field

Skycam wires and video boards: If a kicked ball strikes a video board, skycam, or any other wire or object suspended over the field, the play is immediately dead. The down is replayed from the previous spot without a penalty


Vikings got screwed.


Seems Reichard would have been the best person to notice it. If he did, wondering if he brought it up to KOC? Or did the Special Teams coach? Did KOC say anything to the refs?

If there was complete inaction on the teams part, then the team let themselves get screwed.

May have been able to challenge the play


I see.

Even as a minimum just throw the flag so as to stall however briefly to convince the refs they have their head up their arse... ergo please discuss it.

McCarthy had great chemistry with Addison, I very much look forward to McCarthy playing with both Addison and JJ, along with Hock and Mason, and even Jones if he can come back from injury looking like he still has the initial quick burst.

If you want to do it just right, to help give him his confidence back, you have his first game back be a home game where the crowd noise can almost win the game, along with an aggressive approach by BFlo.

So JJ's next start should be the game at home against the weak Baltimore defense.

As long as Wentz can stay healthy, he starts at home against Philthy, then the 2 away games against SD and Detroit, JJ starts in week 10 at home against Baltimore.

Maybe, but would have hoped Jefferson would have had a big influence.

JJM literally had no NFL game experience with Addison.

JJM had great chemistry with Addison in practices and scrimmages, it's only a matter of time before these two are lighting it up on the scoreboard.

I have McCarthy back on my fantasy football team, made a major trade getting Dak Prescott, 2 RBs and a WR, getting rid of the 1 Packer on my team (Jacobs), and gave the other guy Jayden Daniels, and just got the win and the highest score I have ever gotten, and am ready to roll, and to watch the Vikings roll.

Fun game.

Appartently Jags have same playcall/time management system as Vikes... every single play getting under 5 seconds before it's snapped.

Lawrence is an enigma.... some very poor decisions... followed by some absolute dimes.

Yeah, that was a laugh out loud amazing play.
Stepped on, fell down, fell again while trying to get up and still had the wherewithal to find the endzone to beat the evil empire in the waning seconds!
Love to see that

Who is going to be QBing against Philly ?

It's bizarro world. The Falcons game was EXACTLY like those games. So was the first 3 quarters of the Bears game.

I felt that were still in the Falcons game, the defense kept us in it. I actually expected McCarthy to do the same thing as the Bears game, and pull it out.

The games against the Lions and Rams, it never felt like we were in it, and I didn't expect Darnold to bring us back. He has no history of bringing a team back from being behind by a few TDs, unless I am forgetting about some other regular season games last year. I don't recall his doing it when with the Jets.

Hockenson is a waste of space…and cap money.

I guess you could say we're getting an Eagles team that is unravelling, but I see an angry Eagles team, going against a banged up Vikings team that doesn't really know which of 3 QBs will be starting.

This does not look good for the home team.

The Falcons game was a game we laid an egg and once Cashman and Van Ginkel were out we couldn't stop the run. Hopefully both are back after the bye.

14-3

That's what we gave up on.

It's called greed, people. It's a nasty thing.

Death by 1,000 cuts. As I said two weeks ago, there is a very easy way to make this conversation go away.

Brad H, you were right!
