Buy I’m certain AD was also a First Class a hole.

Good D lines work the Vikings over.

Cannot believe Zimmer went for it on 4th down at the 34

with a sneak that was completely blown up

And Haskins bails them out with a pick

Keenum injured was huge.

@Andrew_Krammer

Feel like that's the kind of call Mike Zimmer makes when he knows Dwayne Haskins is taking the field if it fails

Seeing Rudolph trying to be Irv Smith jr in the first half and outrun people was laughable.
Get Smith the ball on a screen instead.

Washington isn't that good, but their line when it was passing time kicked the Vikings around a lot.

Vikings missed Thielen.

Good stuff Ed

Redskins are better than their record
Helluva tough line on both sides of the ball
Physical game that we probably would have lost in years past, because we lacked the will.
At least at this point we are full of guys willing to fight back.
Our OL is improving, they still get beat at times, but at least they are starting to be the beater at times.

Goes as a W
I hate that adage, but sometimes its true.
Thats all we needed out of that tilt. Another W and on to KC.

Your Rudolph post made me chuckle
Once a game now, he AMAZES me with his lack of speed and strength, for being a beast-like-creature

Hilarious last night, I'm sure it was the play that prompted your post ….
ALL he had to do was tilt the shoulder, lean forward, and run over the DB who was half his size
Instead, of course, the guy just stands him up and grinds him into the turf, a yard short
My wife, who loves sports but bless her heart, doesn't really understand them fully, had seen enough.
She yells "why is Rudolph always going east and west when everyone else is going north and south?"
Proud Husband Moment, there.

That was the play where I shook my head on Rudolph

The NFL equivalent to Joe Mauer

Use Irv more
Love the ability he’s showing

Mattison is more talented than Sammy Johnson ever was

The situation is so similar

Foreman wore down the d
Johnson came in late and ran all over teams

Mattison punished a tired defense late

Lost over 30 yards to penalties

Again Barr made a play attacking
He doesn’t enough
And I thought the other linebacker was better than Gideon
Didn’t miss him

And I think Mike Hughes is better than Rhodes right now

The simple things in life .. do you know how much easier (and more fun) it is to watch Viking football when you are not petrified of your kickers?
I like how no one is saying much about it.
That's the way its SUPPOSED to work!
You've got one job. Be really really good at it.

It wasn't smart to go there and even less smart with that play. Not like our C and guards are going to over power a bunch of DT's, they are built for speed right now.

I can probably say the same about he play-calling
I love what Stefanski has been doing.
I used to question every damn play call. Now, even when we fail, I gotta say, yeah, I woulda tried the same thing, it just didn't work

But also agree on the 4th down stuff
NOT the play to run at that time.
I'm thinking Zimmer might have called that

From the second we were at 4th and 1, I was saying go for it. I have no problem with that decision what so ever. In the back of my mind, though, I was thinking, they wouldn't be dumb enough to sneak Cousins right over the middle would they . Unfortunately, they were.

I really think moving Cousins is beneficial
The line is pretty good at run blocks
Passing
Not so much
