We have zero pass rush and post time are secondary is going to let up the underneath pass when in zone. As for offense, the only hold back I've seen is Bates's playcalling. When he let's Darnold throw, our offense seems to kick into gear. If he's being conservative with Darnold, we tend to stall and sputter. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The OL needs an upgrade for long term success. We need Darnold to continue to develop. And lastly, we need an edge or two to bring constant pressure. Once that happens, we’ll be ready to contend with the Pats. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bowles finally admitted that Long’s injured finger has been causing the bad snap. Damn finger has been killing us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 three of our starting D lineman are not practising today. Everson Griffen we knew would be out for his present mental health issues, Linval Joseph is nursing an injury and his status for Sunday is unclear, and now Danielle Hunter is not practising for an unknown reason. advantage, Jets.

As long as you have Thielen and Diggs, you're gonna have the advantage. Those guys are incredible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 yeah. i meant advantage only for that subset of factors, not the whole game matchup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
doumeyer Posted October 18, 2018 Share Posted October 18, 2018 Its getting late in the week, it looks like the Jets are going to stand pat and not sign any of the WR's they brought in for a tryout, So it looks like it is status quo for the Viking game.

vike daddy Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Pete Bercich, a former linebacker for the Vikings, does a very nice film review of our opponents every week. here's what he sees in the Jets: https://www.vikings.com/video/vikings-jets-nfl-film-room-cousins-darnold good stuff.

Rockice_8 Posted October 19, 2018 Share Posted October 19, 2018 Cook ruled out now. If Hunter and Joseph are slowed by injury too that will even up the playing field with us and our banged up secondary and WR core. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hunter and Joseph being out is definitely a blow to our resources, but we have three very good backs outside of Cook so we're ok there. one had 155 yards last week.

Much rather face Murray than Cook. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
