Game Thread: Week 16: Vikings vs Seahawks:

[Anointed One]

Viking seem to be a bit better than GB imo, but I feel like we match up better against the Vikings than we did against GB... For one, our DL matches up against the Vikings OL much better... The Vikings interior OL has had a lot of the same issues the Hawks have had this season... Their OL has been penalized a lot this season as well due to their challenges up front...

We couldn't contain/stop Jacobs and the run game for the Packers last week, which made it one of the easier games of the year for Love... I feel like we have an opportunity to make Darnold's day a bit more uncomfortable tomorrow... If we can keep continuous pressure on Darnold throughout the day, I think we have a great chance at pulling this one out... 20-17 type of a game..

Why would you do that?

Now that the Vikings control their own destiny they are sure to fuck it up, it all starts tomorrow.

What would be best for the NFL? Hmm that would be a Seahawks win and a Rams win as the Vikings all ready locked up a Playoff spot. Got to make as many games count as possible this in turn can lead to the final week of games loaded with "High Profile" match-ups. for as long as i have been watching football this is something the NFL preaches and why they have the flex schedule in place. Then again a Seahawks loss then the Rams losing to the Cards next week can put the Cards ALSO into the playoff chase.

I don't feel as bad about this game as i did GB but thats because Geno had a shit game last week so i expect some bounce back. Then a good one against the Bears before looking like utter trash week 18 against the Rams.

Have to pressure Darnold as much as possible. Jefferson/Addison are a good 1 2 punch and can make great plays. Also have to slow down Aaron Jones so it's a big game for the D-line and Geno needs to get his shit together.

Last week when Geno got hurt he grabbed his ankle then it turned out to be a knee and upper leg issue .. so weird.
