I haven't smoked anything in 20 years, but if he's feeling that score.... maybe I should start again.![]()
Seattle showed the perfect recipe. Contain AP, force Bridge to throw. Just like San Fran did as well.
As to the Vikings defense... all their best players are out. Barr, Joseph, and Smith is just too huge to overcome against a O as potent as Arizona.
I don't think this game is close. Not sure why it was flexed honestly.
I think this one will be a bit closer than the blowout most people think it is. I doubt the Vikings only run Adrian Peterson 8 times this week like they did against Seattle (should be obvious that's dumb, but if they needed proof, they got it).
While it's understandable that Seattle fans are defining their entire season thus far based on their win last week, Vikings fans seem to be doing the same, being all down in the dumps. They are 8-4 and a good team. They beat the Packers. They are capable of beating good teams.
My money is always on the best QB in the NFL at home though. Vikings defense will put up a valiant effort, but like 10 teams before them, it won't be enough.
Um the Packers kicked their ass the same way Seattle did in MN a few weeks earlier, the second game of the two teams is in GB the last week of the year.
Uh no Seattle watched the game tape a few weeks earlier when GB did what you described to MN and shut down AP in Minneapolis and beat them like 30 - 13 and MN didnt get as many bad calls in that game. The Vikings record is a mirage they will be lucky to make the playoffs with their tough games the last half of the season
This is going to be ugly. I wouldn't be surprised to see 40something to 10.
I wouldn't go so far as to label the Vikings record as a mirage... that's just the hater in you. They've beaten the teams they should (save for San Fran), and they've struggled against the better teams. I said at the beginning of the year, they were a year away, and that's coming to fruition. Hard to say what the game against Seattle might have looked like if we hadn't lost the players we did, to injury.
Well many were predicting a 8-8 or 9 -7 record which it looks like will be a close record. When looking at the record at 7 -2 assumptions can be made that this record should continue and be 12 - 4 or something like that so that was my reason for the reply. I am all in for the Vikings tonight I put 2500 V cash on the Cards to give them incentive to lose as I put money on the Pasts last week and they failed me. I am more for a Cards loss than a Vikes loss as there is hope to get the 2 seed yet. And I am not that much of a Viking hater. A division rival sure but more detest the Bears.
I think most people were also aware of the gauntlet the Vikings faced in the second 1/2 of the season - even accounting for Seattle's pedestrian start.
