vikesfan89 Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Anyone think that the Vikings would have a better home field advantage playing the Patriots? Most of the people there would probably love to see them lose. Although they have a lot more fans than the Jaguars that could be going to the game Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klomp Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 Only thing I'd say is that our underdog/underappreciated chip on the shoulder probably goes away against the Jags, because we'd likely be the favorites for a lot of people. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it does not affect his throwing (an I am not at all convinced that it won't) there is the basic fact that he did not practise this week. That, and any hit he takes could lead his hand to getting worse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uncle Buck Posted January 20, 2018 Share Posted January 20, 2018 It's hard to know what to think about Brady's hand injury. He did miss practice, but then again, this is Belichick we're talking about here, so this could be a total non-issue. One thing is certain, if there actually is an injury that is hampering Brady's ability to throw, they have to be kicking themselves for trading Garapolo.

They knew it was unsustainable to keep both. They made a move when they had to, with the knowledge that Brady was healthy at the time and that he would be back for the 2018 season. I have to imagine they understood the risk and were fine with making the move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted January 20, 2018 Author Share Posted January 20, 2018 i would have thought long and hard about keeping Garappolo and trading Brady, getting like two 1sts and two 2nds for him, over a couple of years. maybe more. having Jimmy G and suddenly a new barrage of players to immediately re-tool with would be very tempting.

No one is giving up that much for a 40 year old QB. I doubt they’d even get what they got for Garoppolo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Browns? no they would not. A team that is right there I would be willing to bet would give up at least a 1st for a Brady. I honestly wouldn't be shocked if the Vikings were willing to.

If you watched last week’s game, you should have. New England is not a very physical team and can be pushed around, something the Jaguars are good at.
