vikingsrule Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 After the Bills game, I don't trust any game as easy wins. The Vikes need to dominate this one. I'm looking for a two TD margin of victory and consistent use of the run game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SotanKing Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 I have seen Cardinals game against Bears and also caught highlights of yesterday's match between Cards and 49ers...it looks like Cardinals offense is bad but their defense looks decent...even though they scored 28 against 49ers yesterday, almost majority of those points came due to turnovers...so as long as our defense doesn't mess up, we should be winning this...I trust our offense to put 20+.

Klomp Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Probably the last trip to Minnesota as a player for Larry Fitzgerald. It'd be cool if the team honored him before the game somehow, but I can't see any way that happens for an active player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

swede700 Posted October 8, 2018 Author Share Posted October 8, 2018 There's no need to honor a former ball boy. Yes, he's a great player from Minnesota...but the Vikings already have one in Adam Thielen. Larry Fitzgerald will always have a special place in Minnesota, since he's from there, but he doesn't hold a special place with the Vikings franchise, since he was only a ball boy.

Klomp Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 Not honoring him as a ballboy, but honoring as an NFL all-time great. I'd compare it more to the Twins (and every other team on the schedule) honoring Derek Jeter. Like I said originally, I don't see it happening anyways.

Nozizaki Posted October 8, 2018 Share Posted October 8, 2018 This is a big game for us. I want to see that this team is going to take a lesser team seriously and pummel them. It's also an opportunity for our defense to continue to play well and get their swagger back against the 31st best offense in the league. I think Rosen will be special, but behind that O-Line he shouldn't have enough time to carve up a Zimmer D. And with Chicago headed for what I believe will be a loss for them and GB at the same record as us, this would be a key win to get back into pole position for the NFC North crown.

I'd compare it more to the Twins (and every other team on the schedule) honoring Derek Jeter. Like I said originally, I don't see it happening anyways. Sure...but, I thought the whole Jeter thing was even silly at the time. While certainly he was a great player and is a cinch HOFer, he didn't transcend the game. He wasn't like some grand humanitarian that deserved honor across the league for doing great things (same goes for Kobe as far as I'm concerned). He was a great player playing a kid's game and certainly wasn't a perfect human being. Those are the people that deserve accolades...certainly, Larry would qualify as far as that goes, because he's a far greater human being than both Jeter and Kobe...but he didn't have the same adulation across the league that Jeter and Kobe did...and didn't play in a major market (which is probably the biggest factor). I apologize for going on a tangent...sometimes I can't help myself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
