I was under the assumption McCarthy would be thrown into the fire and start for you all out the gate. That was always a false narrative put out by the media. Personally, most of us thought there was never a chance that McCarthy was going to be starting out of the gate. I do understand the thought of needing to be taken seriously. That may be true...from the Vikings perspective though, unlike VD, I'm not sure the Vikings are ever going to be taken seriously. Yes, they beat the 49ers, but I still don't think people are really taking them seriously...and even if they do win here, that won't change. And ultimately, I don't think whoever wins it's going to really have an effect in that matter, because really no one is going to take either of them seriously. The Texans, however, have a better shot of that happening because they will likely win their division, which is less of a meat grinder than the NFC North is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How good are the 9ers right now though considering all their injuries? Still a good win, but have to take it with a grain of salt. The Texans Defense is showing elite tendencies. Their offense, we know can be elite (still haven't shown it this season) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ObotimusPrime Posted September 20 Share Posted September 20 Hopefully studying the 49ners game last week helps Slowik and the O find holes in the defense since our schemes are so similar. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vike daddy Posted September 22 Share Posted September 22 On 9/20/2024 at 1:49 PM, lumberjackchris said: Those are 3 good players out for the Vikes [Addison, Pace, Dallas Turner] HOU's injuries look impactful too, no? Addison - we have WR's #3 and 4 who need to step up anyway, so today's their day. Pace - leaves us thin at LB, yes. but HOU will be passing all day and Pace isn't the best at coverage. Turner - hasn't had a huge impact so far in the first two games, getting one sack. the Vikiings this year are very much built on a next man up philosophy, so we'll see today how much depth there is to that...
