This is your brain on drugs!

The Warpath - Where every game is a trap game.
There should be an Admiral Ackbar jpeg at the top of this page.

Baller alert: Sam mother fucking Bradford.

He's plenty capable if he has time. If he gets hit hard a few times he pretty much checks out. Barry has to get after him.

Without Trent and Desean ... yeesh. Why couldnt these guys miss a game when we play pedestrian defenses.

Vikings D - 2nd in total yards, 4th in avg pass yds/game, 8th in av run yds/game. They are also 2nd in total takeaways (10 ints, 7 fumble). On offense they are tied for 1st w the least giveaways (1 int, 4 fumbles).

Good news - their offense is caught in an anemic last 3 games. They also are avg 2.7 yds/run which would be a record low since the advent of the Superbowl.

This game is on Barry imo. He has to take advantage of a one dimensional team. He has to make sure he doesnt let the Vikings run game suddenly become effective against us.

Good coaching wins this game for us.

Skins 24
Vikings 17

Redskins coach Jay Gruden said receiver DeSean Jackson is listed as doubtful for Sunday. If he can't play then Rashad Ross would be active. Jamison Crowder can play in Jackson's spot in a two-receiver set.

Per keim.

Interesting to note, grant was the guy who backed up djax in 2 receiver sets...little bit of a promotion

“Yeah, he was getting checked out today, got some extra treatment. Got the MRI, we got the results and he’s just dealing with a little bit of pain right now.”

On if there is hope Jackson will practice tomorrow and play Sunday:

“Yeah, we’ll see. We’ll see how he’s doing. I think that will be on him.”
Quotes: Head Coach Jay Gruden, DC Joe Barry, OC Sean McVay (11-10-2016) (http://www.redskins.com/news/article-1/Quotes-Head-Coach-Jay-Gruden-DC-Joe-Barry-OC-Sean-McVay-11-10-2016/4baaa05e-99f3-46bf-858f-9daa368bbafd)

Thats clear coach speak that "Desean should play but if he wants to be a bitch, thats on him."

More like a demotion for Grant.

The pessimist in me says of course this will be the game Minnesotas offense gets right and they're able to outscore us. However I do think we're the better team so I'll say we win something like 30-17. Cousins and the passing offense have moved the ball against anybody and everybody, I dont see Minnesota being the one to shut them down. And if our defense is back to creating turnovers, this could be really long day for Bradford

Vikings have been missing their LT and RT, that plus no AP. They been on a tailspin since losing those OL.
