PrplChilPill Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 If they are going to change the game plan this week, why didn't they appear to make any adjustments last week? Other teams seem to adjust at half time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're too deep in to this playoff race to make any more QB changes unless we have to. Now, if we have no shot at the playoffs the last week or two, I'd be down to start Hall and see what he's got. Right now we roll with Dobbs I can see it now, Vikings drop out of the playoff picture maybe in part due to Dobbs play, only to start Hall in week 17/18, where maybe he looks more effective, and finishing 8th in conference with no playoffs and drops our draft position. Sooo Vikings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not the only issue, but certainly the biggest one. By a wide margin. I do hope they throw in the "don't turn it over" play in the game plan this week though. It's been very effective when they use it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDBrocks Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 Vikings wins (6): 12 takeaways vs 7 giveaways Vikings losses (6): 4 takeaways vs 17 giveaways I don't care what the game plan is or what adjustments are made at halftime. Stop turning the ball over => win games 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, basically, it's going to be an ugly, ugly game. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 The Raiders made an addition to their defensive line coming out of their bye week. Defensive end Janarius Robinson has been signed to the active roster off of the practice squad. There was no corresponding move needed to open a spot on the 53-man roster for Robinson. Robinson was a 2021 fourth-round pick of the Vikings. He spent his rookie season on injured reserve and then went back on the list in 2022 after the Eagles signed him off the Vikings practice squad. https://www.nbcsports.com/nfl/profootballtalk/rumor-mill/news/raiders-sign-janarius-robinson-to-active-roster who? i sure don't remember this guy.

It’s very difficult to switch things up mid season, and it’s usually why it doesn’t happen until the bye week when coaches have time to sit down and reassess. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That teams don't do that all the time? That they weren't doing their best to use his skills? And we're good with that? I mean, after two weeks, KOC was a genius at adjusting.....at least that's what I read here. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted December 6, 2023 Share Posted December 6, 2023 There's a big difference between adjusting strategy and the plays that you've installed for the week, and changing the scheme and sitting down with a player to get a better idea of what concepts they are most comfortable with. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
