wcblack34 Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Justin Jefferson now has 1500 receiving yards. He needs to average 125 yards per game to become the first 2000 yard receiver in NFL history. I'm not betting against him. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Could see those week 17 and week 18 games being fairly meaningless. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 Jefferson needs 133 yards to break Randy Moss’ franchise record. He needs 465 to pass Calvin Johnson for the NFL record. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 Pro Football Hall of Fame wide receiver Randy Moss’ best year as a Viking came in 2003, when he caught 111 passes for 1,632 yards and 17 touchdowns. Justin Jefferson’s 13th game of the season was Sunday in Detroit. Comparing the first 13 games of Moss’ great 2003 season with Jefferson’s first 13 games this year: Moss, 2003: 90 catches, 1,372 yards, 15.24 yards per catch, 105.5 yards per game. Jefferson, 2022: 99 catches, 1,500 yards, 15.15 yards per catch, 115.4 yards per game. https://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2022/12/12/eagles-lions-baker-mayfield-peter-king-fmia-week-14/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If JJ is close and wants to go for it, I don’t think he stands in his way. Aside from that, San Fran is nipping on our heels. I don’t think we’re going to have that #2 seed locked up before week 18. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's okay...we'll get some breathing room when we take care of the Colts and Geno Smith torches the 49ers. 🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted December 12, 2022 Author Share Posted December 12, 2022 (edited) After a regular season team record 223 receiving yards, Justin Jefferson moved in to the Vikings' Top Ten for Career Receiving Yards, passing Kyle Rudolph. Jefferson is 108 yards shy of passing Stefon DIggs for 9th in team history. vikings.com Edited December 12, 2022 by vike daddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving players a pseudo bye week is probably more beneficial that fighting for the bragging rights of being #2 or #3. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving players a pseudo bye week is probably more beneficial that fighting for the bragging rights of being #2 or #3. I don't think it'll mean all that much, because the Cowboys are basically already locked into the #5 seed, unless they implode. The #6 or #7 team will pretty much be the same. Should they win that game, then it's the question of whether they'd likely be at home or not, because the difference would be getting SF at home or away (should they win their game).

VikeManDan Posted December 12, 2022 Share Posted December 12, 2022 1 hour ago, vike daddy said: Jefferson is 108 yards shy of passing Stefon Diggs for 9th in team history. Pretty crazy. Diggs, 70 games as a Viking, 365 receptions, 4623 yards, 30 TDs. Jefferson, 46 games as a Viking, 295 receptions, 4516 yards, 23 TDs. 24 less games, 70 fewer receptions, 107 fewer yards, and 7 fewer TDs. Jefferson is so damn special. 1. Cris Carter (12,383) 2. Randy Moss (9,316) 3. Anthony Carter (7,636) - trails by 3,120 4. Adam Thielen (6,611) 5. Jake Reed (6,433) - trails by 1,917 6. Sammy White (6,400) - trails by 1,884 7. Steve Jordan (6,307) - trails by 1,791 8. Ahmad Rashad (5,489) - trails by 973 With health, Jefferson will be in the top 5 before his rookie contract expires. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
