wcblack34 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Defense made some great adjustments too. Aiyuk was killing them in the first half. Got bottled up in the second. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Emotional wins need to be followed up so hopefully KOC gets the guys down from the high as fast as possible. Least yr beating bills, was followed with a stinker vs Cowboys if i recall. Glad i started/stacked Cousins and the best rookie WR in the draft tonight Green Bay next week, right? The Packers aren’t really riding high right now and Love looks bad so might also be a good time to put them away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

meixdaddy_10 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 What a phenomenal game from the Vikes all around. Addison is a beast already, such a great 1-2 punch with Jettas. Cant wait to have him back healthy and get these 2 going together. Cousins was lights out all night. Not sure how he wasnt sacked all night, especially that 1st down throw to Addison late in the game. Speaks volumes to how well the O-line played tonight. Just wish we could get the run game going a little better. Big game from Hock, was much needed. And Powell and Osborn with some great plays to move the chains as well. Exactly what this team needed. And the D tonight was outstanding! They came up big time and time again. Was a little worried with the O not scoring TDs in the red zone, but when we needed it the most they made the big plays. We absolutely cant get rid of Hunter now, need to find a way to keep him for awhile longer. Just makes you angry when you see a game like this and know that we lost to the Bucs, Eagles, Chargers, and Chiefs the way we did. Need to take advantage of the dip in strength of schedule coming up and stack more wins together. Firmly in the hunt for the playoffs and the division. SKOL!!!! 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SemperFeist Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Shooting themselves in the foot the first month of the season put them behind the eight ball, but the fact that this team took the Eagles, Chiefs, and 49ers down to the wire does give a good idea of the type of team they can be. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vikesfan89 Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 How was the defense able to slow down the run? I expected them to get pushed around. Did they play more of the big guys up front? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Give Kirk Cousins his flowers. Cousins has been (often unfairly) maligned as a quarterback who is good enough to give his team a chance to win, but has never been a guy who can go win them a key game. Consider that opinion indefinitely suspended after Monday night. Cousins was fantastic, finishing with a stellar line of 35 of 45, 378 yards, two touchdowns and one interception that was ripped from the grasp of his intended receiver. He routinely found outlets when under pressure, never panicking and avoiding making a crucial mistake. He spread the ball among nine different targets, and even found ways to keep the offense moving when both Jordan Addison and T.J. Hockenson briefly exited the game due to injury. And because of his play, the Vikings were able to build enough of a lead to keep the 49ers at bay. Cousins probably should have tossed another touchdown or two, but the two he did complete -- plus a handful of Greg Joseph field goals -- were enough to score a massive upset win, and perhaps change the narrative of the Vikings, who have now won three of their last four.

It likely had something to do with McCaffery’s injury, but I’m surprised they only gave one carry to a different running back. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
viking Posted October 24, 2023 Share Posted October 24, 2023 Great team win today Fantastic to see some young studs emergining in Addison & Bynum. I'm not sure what happened to the run game in the 2nd half. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
