Game Thread: Vikes (8-2) at Bears (4-6)

[wood20ks]

I was hoping someone would start it,so I gues I will do it just to have something to read this week.......

 

[wood20ks]

At this point and time,I just wanna see them look respectable,dont even care if they lose today,cause whats the big whoop.....
Give CW time to throw,lets see his accuracy improve.....
Lets see how the oline does it job.
Lets see what kind of plays Brown conjures up.....

Just dont look pathetic losing,or some type of wtf was that game ending loss.

the Viqueens made it really clear that they are going to blitz the hell out of Williams. If he reads his hot receivers correctly, he should have one on one coverage all over the field. Might end up with 50 air yards for the game, but the YAKs can get him over 200 or more.

Some good news was Swift had a groin injury, but made it thru all of friday practice, but they could be more cognizant of sharing carries and let Roshon eat today. But with all the blitz pickups, I guess we see if Homer gets more time or if he was just Waldrons go to guy. The mistake will be keeping Swift between the tackles because they are trying to protect the groin.

I still think this is their last shot at a win this year, (although San Fran is really banged up now) but all I really want to see is a first 15 script so the players might show they are prepared and score a first drive TD.

at the start of the season, I thought the Vikes would split with the Packers and Bears and get swept by the Lions.

My thinking hasn't changed...Good Luck.

Positives: Too small a sample size of game film on Thomas Brown's tendancies as OC for the Vikings to prepare for. Plus Brown and O'Connell were on the same Rams staff. Slight advantage to Brown.

Negatives: Eberflus.

Actually feel pretty good about our chances in this game. At least until kickoff.

It does have that feeling......

Here is what I am going to be watching today is how Thomas Brown preparing for today and adjusting to Brian Flores' blitz packages. Because we all know Flores is going to throw the kitchen sink at Caleb. If TB installs hot routes, rb screens, and quick slants to beat the blitz, AND THEN adjusts when they stop blitzing, I will be really impressed.

I have a weird feeling we get this one too…. Of course I thought we’d get our asses kicked last week, so whatevs.

 

[Jiddy]

We can’t handle their blitzes…Im surprised how many think we will win.

 

[justanidiot]

Here we go again, nickel base defense against a runner like jones

 

[Jiddy]

D with a big play postponing the pain

 

[Jiddy]

We scored…first?!?

 

[Jiddy]

Universe at end of quarter: Simmer down and know yer role Bears fans.

 

[Jiddy]

Our touchdown: Thank you Jesus for this manna rained down from the heavens!!!!!

Their touchdown: Just another Tuesday at the office boys. See you tomorrow.

 

[Jiddy]

Again dudes?

 

[Jiddy]

They suck the life out of me like vampires.

 

[nebearsfan70]

Here we go again.

 

[beardown07]

Why did the clock keep running on that completion to Odunze? Did I miss something, cuz I thought he went out??

 

[beardown07]

Holy blatant holding that was conveniently missed. Fuck these officials. That was an obvious hold on whoever was "blocking" Walker.

 

[beardown07]

Take the fucking points ffs.

Didn't learn from last week apparently.
