Not sure there's ever been a sadder matchup than the upcoming Vikings/Lions
You can't really match up two bigger quitters at this point

Well, I've bitched about this team quitting in the past
I was wrong
They had a better QUIT in them than i gave them credit for
Not one guy wanted to hit the ground Friday
It was too much to ask
It was like fake tough guys playing tackle in an asphalt parking lot. I'll kinda make it look like I'm there, ahhh, nahhhh, go ahead.
And to THOSE pricks
You quit against THOSE pricks. Wow.
Zimmer will never try to create offense when we have a chance, he chose Friday to try and create offense late, and gave them an extra 2-3 TDs
Turtle your head and take the beat, instead he opened us all up for a Payton face-rub. Thanks, idiot Dinosaur.
He not only can't manage a clock when we're trying to win, he can't manage one when we're trying to lose by less.

Friend of mine texted me

"Tough to stop Kamara with your 4th string exhibition guys in there"

Excuses

ALWAYS

Why do fans give them every excuse in the book?

That was pathetic.

This is as close to jumping ship as I've ever been.

They Quit

Management has

So guess I'm next if they don't make changes. Eff them if they continue down this path.

I heard that all day too
"they're just too banged up"
LOOK at the other teams injuries
Just as many, or more, than us.
Its always the first route Viking fans take, look for reasons to excuse not getting it done.

Got 1 in the fam that has jumped ship

Liv is a Chiefs fan

Says she enjoys watching Mahomes throw the ball all over the park.

State of the Union

She got a KC sweatshirt from her boyfriend

Will got a Seahawks sweatshirt from his girlfriend. He's about ready to jump ship.

Speaking of the Seahawks...

Can't stand Carroll.

But look at what he's done since the Vikings game. They actually play a higher level defense now.

THEY GOT BETTER WITH YOUNGER GUYS

Imagine that?

Granted the Rams are the best chokers in the league right now, and I'm loving that.

But Seattle is much improved from their near loss to MN earlier.

Same players who were on a record pace for bad defense, yet they righted the ship and are rolling
Sounds like they got coached up

Coaching up your players to do well

He's a positive rah rah happy as hell coach

But Carroll gets a lot out of his guys.

Zimmer rips bitches and complains about younger guys and not very good

All true

But yeah, who wants to bust their ass for that?

And the worst part as usual, is that the Packers resurgence always occurs when we are on a crash.
They look to be sewing up HFA, which will play into their whole media darlings role
was absolutely gagging last night to hear about Rogers from start to finish
Another place you look at coaching
On offense they always appear to have one more guy than everyone.
Someone always open, and the ball leaves Rogers hand before anyone can even breathe on him
Add that to refs absolutely babying them, and you have the formula for a very long playoff season for me

An you can cay they're paid to do this, pride and all that

But there's no doubt the more you rail and rip on guys, the less they're going to do for you.

This ain't Lombardi's Packers. Different era.

Adams is a stud. No doubt. He's always open. Crazy

Rogers meditating and all that Bullshit in the offseason?

Gimme a break

He's about Aaron

Winning is the cure all for his arrogant ass

He was long faced-pouty

One of the best games of the year.

The ont good thing about GB is they are always one tiny step away from a total collapse, when AAron gets upset
He turns on them all quick, when he fails.
Alls great, when they do as he says and he looks good.
But slip up and make him look bad? YOU in trouble.

Look back 3 weeks
Chicago coach ... we're over here laughing at the pathetic Bears, wondering who gets fired first
Talk about righting the ship
These young coaches are NOT dinosaurs
They learn
They adapt
They are driven
All of them have been knocked down
None stay there

Had to go back to Trubisky, who, IMO, will suck against a good D

But he faced the Vikes

And Nagy put him in a position to succeed

The Vikings put stare at one receiver Cousins in the pocked and believe the 5 turds that make up the line will hold up.

Mitch is actually pretty good. Why they messed around with Foles at all is a mystery to me.

The Line sucks, no doubt.

But Cousins in Kubiak's offense put up about 30 against two of the supposed better NFC defenses(CHI, NO). Not garbage time points.

Then I watch the Wonderkid Coach from LA try to ram it in 4 times from the 1 yard line against SEA when one play action would have been an easy TD. They got 3 FGs all day with alot of offensive weapons.

We aren't far off from being a Top 5 offense(2 above average Guards).

Defense is another story. Need a perfect storm of guys coming back playing well after injuries and about 3-4 more good hits in the draft.

Vikings running back Dalvin Cook's 16 rushing scores puts him ahead of 19 different teams for rushing touchdowns.

Hmmm.

I hate to be "that guy" but it's all on Zimmer. Everything you guys have said is correct but just read his quotes.

"We're down a safety and 6 LB's"

Yeah man. Nice try McEnany. I've seen Smith and Harris play every down this year. What safety? A backup that should never see the field? 6 LB's? Really? We fall for that bullshit? I knew it was BS from the quote but had to look it up. We only kept 5 on the opening day roster.

I can't wait for next year when we get those 7 resources back along with Hunter and Pierce. Hell, that's 21 pro-bowlers by Zimmer's math. We are a lock to win the NFC East.

2 sad franchises that go out drinking, come back at 2 AM and order a pizza. One piece left and they stare at it for 3 days. Day 3, pizza isn't eatable and they just stare at each other both barely keeping their forehead from bouncing off the table.

Last post before I puke. Game could still go either way. It was early. Titans block a FG and return to GB's 18. Penalty, offside. Even the "booth ref" they employ every game (forget who this one was) said after commercial...."There wasn't a single Titan offside there, not sure what they saw".

It's unwatchable.

It's unwatchable.

One of several last night
Game still in balance ... GB RB steps out at 44, runs to the 9, GB ball at the 9
Ref looking right at the foot we all saw out of bounds
That kick block play was the worst, felt completely Viking-ish
Easily could have swung the game, but the refs were having none of that
Love it when it gets so bad that the announcers just kind of go ... "uhhh, moving on"
As in yeah, we see GB getting the breaks, but lets pretend we don't
Rodgers works the refs the minute they hit the field
They are all lining up to be his fave. Is that smart? Hell yeah on his part. Sucks for the rest of us.
They fawn like little kids around him. He's so funny! He's so good! He likes me, he really likes me!

Anyone see the Fitzmagic show Saturday?
Dude has been fun to watch the past couple years

Weird stat .... game ended 26-25 First time in NFL history a game ended with that score.
How is that even possible?
