The Gnat Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 This will be a very very tough game to win. Keenum is going to have the game of his career for the Vikings to win, or the defense is going to have to shut down the Packer's offense. Now, I tend to think that the defense can slow it down pretty well, it will depend on if the Vikings can score enough to win the game. With Keenum in there last night the answer seemed to be probably not but maybe, and Bradford it was a big solid nope. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Keenum needs to start. He seems much more effective than Bradford at this point. Vikes DL must dominate their depleted OL if MN is to have any chance in this game. my gut tells me this one will be ugly but it feels like a must win since we've already lost to one divisional opponent at home.

SteelKing728 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Tell Keenum he's playing Tampa Bay and not Green Bay all week and watch him light em up! Haha GB is better than Chicago but we're playing at home. Should be interesting. Trae Waynes needs to play better. Rodgers typically stays away from Rhodes so much of their passing attack will focus on one side of the field, or to their Tight Ends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really true in its current form. We really only have one person not playing there natural position at this point in the season and there is a pretty good chance that we will have everyone back on the O line this week..

KFP7 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Has Rhodes been shadowing receivers or sitting on one side of the field? I thought I heard the announcers implying he's been following other team's top receiver...and still shutting them down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah makes sense, I'll assume Davante ends up with something like 2 catches for 18 yards then. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
VikeManDan Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 If he's shadowing anyone my bet would be on Jordy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 The loss to the Lions at home really hurts. We could have been 4-1 and playing for the outright division lead this week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 It'll be Jordy. Rhodes and Smith cut the field in half. They sit back and watch Waynes and Sendejo get torched. On a different note: it'd be wise to spread Green Bay out and attack their #3 and #4 CBs. Michael Floyd, Jarius Wright and Laquon Treadwell might literally have their hands full. Elflein needs to play better. He's getting there, but Mike Daniels can destroy an interior offensive line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Xavier Rhodes will cover who he needs to cover, and I predict that we will see a lot of this everywhere else: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They both have their faults and make mistakes, but I believe are better than you give them credit for. It's not like the days of Asher Allen and Tyrell Johnson in the secondary. I think, arguably, the 4 of them constitute one of the top 5 secondaries in the entire NFL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteelKing728 Posted October 10, 2017 Share Posted October 10, 2017 Maybe we're just spoiled then by having 2 unquestionably great defensive backs on our team and I've just set the same standards for the other 2. I realize other teams have it a lot worse. Trae Waynes can be up and down. There are times that he's seriously impressive and other times you wonder why he's even on the field. I'm not a fan of Sendejo. He's improved since first starting but still very replaceable. Anyways, both of them will be heavily tested on Sunday. Same with Alexander facing Cobb.
