Vikings Post-game Thread

Normally when we lose it doesn’t effect me. I watch trying to find individual small things to enjoy but don’t really invest emotionally.

I was pissed after this one. I haven’t been emotionally triggered by this team in a while.

3 game win streak, up by 10, defense playing real well against a bonafide good offense ….. Just when I think it’s safe they sucked me back in today

Lol,I felt same way,didn’t think I cared anymore then this bs today

I barely avoided getting sucked back into caring too much about a loss. It was nice to see that we were competitive and probably better than pulling off a fluke upset and forgetting that (1) we don’t have a QB, (2) our O line is patchy, (3) our play calling is inconsistent and at times illogical, and (4) our HC is a bad game manager. Not going to pick on the D today. In the end, the better offensive team won, and we should stay positive by repeating the mantra “Dan is selling, Dan is selling.”

Was at a memorial service all day. No televisions and completely forgot about football until i got home an hour ago. Literally never checked my phone to see the scores or my fantasy team. Absolutely forgot it was a football Sunday. Reading the two game threads for the story. Sounds to me like Ron and Scott are still holding this team back and Taylor is still a jag.

What is up with the D seemingly shutting them down until there are ten minutes left in the game and giving up three scores though?

bad team plays bad? This is why the staff felt like they needed to go dump money on a QB. It still almost worked out today anyways. D is playing better (for the most part), we'll win some more games, but we've been out of the playoff hunt (by reasonable measures). So it's either try to win some more games w/ TH or CW for a bit or give Howell some time now(ish).

Thing that is absolutely disgusting: outside of Leno and Cosmi the Oline is really troubling. Guys who need to go this offseason are Norwell, Trai Turner, Charles. Roullier has become an injury prone disappointment. We need to add pieces including a high draft pick or spend some bigger money at Right Guard. Fuck Ron Rivera as GM. Penalties on special teams

Things I like: Jamin Davis being comfortable and improving this year. Daron Payne and Jon Allen just dominate. Combo of B Rob and Gibson running the ball. I like the way our secondary is playing since Will Jax has sat.

We need a QB and better pieces along the Oline. I’m leaning towards keeping Payne and Allen duo in the center of Dline.

I didn’t watch today so I don’t have the emotional vested interest in blowing a 10 pt 4th quarter lead, but it is hard for me to be upset about losing to Vikings. They are the second best team we’ve played this season and we held their O to 20. They probably have the two seed in NFC.

Defense played well today. Our run defense is stout, held cook in check.The secondary played well, they gave up two td through the air that were just perfect throw, both td throws they had great coverage. The only thing on defense today that frustrated me was the coverage on their new Tight end Hockenson…sometimes they just let him run free, one time Davis got beat 10 yards. Justin Jefferson is gonna get his, but we broke up a TD and couple other pass plays against him.

The dline had Cousins under pressure most of the game. Payne completely leveled him late.

Kirk is the best QB the Redskins have ever drafted.
He would be a first ballot hall of Famer if he played with the hogs.

FU Kirk

That game was a gift…

Exact opposite of last week: ugly game awesome win agains the Colts, solid game excruciating loss against a tough opponent this week.

Heinicke plays bad, but you can't totally dismiss the effect he seems to have on this team. Everybody seems to be having more fun and playing harder when he plays... Can't build a team around him though, no arguing that.

Credit to JDR for turning things around. The Vikings' Offense is loaded with weapon and they couldn't move the ball on us past the first drive of the game, minus one big play, which they gonna have agains pretty much any body.

Secondary playing really well. Whole Dline awesome.
