I’m not saying anyone in here is the same way but this comment reminded me of some people on a different sport forum website who are fans of the Minnesota Wild but would get more excitement outta the Wild losing and being right about it over the team actually doing well. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sad People Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Thursday is a pretty big game I feel like. And it isn’t an easy out either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nzd07 Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 I still think this team has a shot at a SB (we'll host at least 1 playoff game). But it's clear that we need to stay healthy, not enough depth behind starters like Darrisaw, DT, etc. If we get a W on Thursday, this loss will sting way less. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Difference is that New England's offense sucks. We'll likely be able to have a more balanced attack on offense and not just let them pin their ears back. Since Cousins has been a Viking our biggest weakness has always been passing against the blitz, he's just not good at maneuvering around in the pocket.

Nah, their rushing attack is nowhere near Dallas. Both the run blocking and backs are superior for the Cowboys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikingsrule Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Feel like there are some really big flaws on the offense that have been covered up by some fourth quarter heroics. If Jefferson doesn’t get going, what is the offense? need to fix this, but I think many have been concerned about the offense throughout the course of the game. New England is going to be a challenge defensively but that offense looks terrible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would it be fair to say he’s having a down year from a consistency standpoint? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's not forget Cook should've had another really long TD in Miami, but he got tripped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Watching some of the highlights, for Dallas, the Vikings have little to no speed on defense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably why they've been playing so much shell coverage. We've been getting some timely turnovers which has masked the problems with the secondary. Sucks that Cine got hurt, he's a really good athlete who could've given us a boost. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBrocks Posted November 21, 2022 Share Posted November 21, 2022 Hard to believe that Booth is this bad given his college tape. He looked so hesitant and slow to process what was happening. That’s looking like a bad trade so far. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Right now, Kwesi’s entire first draft looks bad. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
