meixdaddy_10 Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Entertaining game. A win is a win. 13-4 is a great year regardless of how we won the games. Look forward to a home playoff game next week. SKOL!!!!!!!!! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ArcticNorseman Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 Good win for the Vikes today! I flipped back n forth between games, but in general, the 1st half seemed like the game was in total Vikings control, even with the end of half blunder. The 2nd half was a "let's get this done" approach/feeling. Did anyone get injured or dinged up? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But he came back shortly after that for a few plays. Then they got smart and pulled him for Mattison and then eventually pulled Mattison for Nwangwu and Chandler. Other than that i dont remember any other major scare. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted January 8, 2023 Share Posted January 8, 2023 (edited) Interesting context of stats; In 2021, the Vikings’ offense ranked 14th in scoring, with 425 points scored. They ranked 24th in defensive scoring after allowing 426 points. They went 8-9. In 2022, the offense is currently ranked 8th in scoring, and will likely finish as a top 10 scoring offense with 424 points scored. Defensively, they finished the season with 427 points allowed. They finished 13-4. So, to put it plainly, the Vikings scored more points and allowed fewer points in 2021 than they did in 2022. Yet, they won 5 more games in 2022 than they did in 2021.

SteelKing728 Posted January 9, 2023 Share Posted January 9, 2023 Win-win for both teams. We are 13-4 and have a negative point differential though, right? Lol whatever. Let's go nuts in the playoffs! Skol! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not implying that the Vikings are only lucky, but let’s be honest…. We don’t really belong with Philadelphia, San Francisco or Dallas. I’ll root for the Vikings because they’re my team, but we are definitely a bit more lucky than good. Other than that - SKOL. Let’s enjoy the ride (I guess) as much as we can 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, luck is part of the equation, but the best players stepping up at the rught moment is not just luck...it's great situational football. So, I am not willing to concide that the Vikings don't belong with the Eagles, 49ers or the Cowjerks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Philly looks a little rusty but I’m sure they’ll get up to speed in no time. SF still has an unproven playoff QB. None of these teams are elite by any means and are beatable. But we obviously can’t fall behind so quickly as has been the case against these teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
