Game Thread: Wildcard weekend

[Clayton]

glad Hockenson got them over the hump. Have fun with that big pay day Vikes

They will have fun signing a good player, I'd imagine.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Good for Jones and Saquon and the Giants for getting a decent HC in there finally.

Vikings going to Viking in the playoffs

Does Kirk Cousins play defense??

Dude only had a passer rating of 112 and still gets the blame.

The Vikings defense lost this game by letting Daniel Jones have his single best NFL game, and also not stopping the run as well either.

is this the new eli manning?

Looks like next weekend will be the Eagles hosting the Giants....and the 49ers hosting the winner of the Cowboys/Bucs game.

Never thought I would ever root for a Dallas tomorrow but that would make for some fun match ups next week.

I've been saying it ever since cousins came here. None of this shit matters because in the end, cousins is a mental midget who will always make the bad play when it matters.

Amazing to pin this loss on Cousins. Giants won the game more than Vikes losing it.

I rarely pull for the Cowboys but after seeing people shit talking the Eagles schedule, it’s clear that people don’t fully respect how good this division was this year. Would be pretty cool to have 3/4 of the Final 4 in the NFC be from the NFC East.

Defend that throw. Because that throw was as important as all the defensive plays that game.

I'm worried about all of these poorly refd games. Hopefully they're getting this out of their system

Hmm

It's time for Kirk Cousins' final exam: the NFL playoffs

In Kevin O'Connell's first season, Cousins said he has more responsibility in the offense than in any of his first 10 years in the league. Can the quarterback direct the Vikings to playoff success?

He was there before that. Check his metrics hes been a top 10 advanced analytics guy this year

I agree SP. Shows what having the right coach can do for a young guy. He always had the tools. Now he knows how to take care of the ball and lead a team. You can see his confidence has gone way up as well.

31st worst defense in the regular season. They were always going to be a highly beatable team in the postseason because of it.

I'm glad the Giants held on for the win. That roughing the passer call on Dexter Lawrence annoyed the hell outta me. That shit has become a fucking joke.

Amazing you say? Did you see that shit?

Yep and that last play is still a head scratcher. Need 8yds but throw a 3yd curl to the TE that's covered.

Dexter Lawrence is a beast. His arm is like a leg.

That shitty defense is the reason trash ass cousins had even as good of a qbr as he did. 49.8 is garbage, and most of that was against prevent because cousins is complete trash against regular defense.

Same here... Reminds me of the Reggie Miller led Pacers vs the Jordan led Bulls in the postseason back in the day... It was so bad...
