VikeManDan Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 I'm still a tad confused as to whether they see Cleveland as a long-term guard or a long-term tackle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's what I've been reading/seeing/hearing from the talking heads. With the way this season is going it puts Sewell in play for our 1st rounder as well.

A loss to the Falcons probably vaults us into the top 3 for the time being. One left against the Pack, 2 against the Bears and Lions. Losing Dak hurts the Cowboys, Panthers are playing better, Jags are the Jags, Bucs and Saints will probably only get stronger the longer the season goes up. I'm just not sure I see the wins on the schedule. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just not sure I see the wins on the schedule. They're going to split with the Bears...the Bears are a terrible football team, despite being 4-1. I still see 6 wins left on the schedule...they'll finish 7-9. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
erickendricks4pf Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 might want to rest Dalvin for this game. Mattison should be enough against an abysmal falcons run defense. and now that they have a long term investment in cook, probably smarter to look at the bigger picture.

Assuming he's not 100%, yes, it would be smart to rest him with the BYE week after the Falcons game.

Guest Posted October 12, 2020 Share Posted October 12, 2020 With Quinn as the head coach, I would definitely feel confident the Vikings would win. However, the Falcons might get that Romeo Crennell effect that the Texans got on Sunday! They should be a better team than they've been playing. I hope not, but with the Vikings luck (and if Cook doesn't play), Morris gives energy to the Falcons and they are able to put it together.

Where is there any evidence that they drafted him as a tackle? And many, many collegiate tackles get moved to guard in the NFL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is more or less exactly where I'm at heading into next week's game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swede700 Posted October 12, 2020 Author Share Posted October 12, 2020 Yes, because Raheem Morris' defense played with so much energy this year. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyways, inspired Falcons will likely end up having a come from behind win instead of blowing the lead. I think they win 31-28. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
