As a fan, and certainly a fan that is active on a football forum, it can be difficult to look at the season one game at a time. I think every fanbase has this "issue". However we all expect the coaches and players to take the season one game at a time. As fans, we can do our best to temper our expectations (like waiting to see what sort of contract our QB will make this season after their playoff performance) but in general, I don't think this is common. I think its fair to say that the football team and the fans of that football team have different outlooks on things, and that's okay!

SemperFeist Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 (edited) Harrison Smith and Xavier Rhodes were named 1st team All-Pro. Adam Thielen and Everson Griffen were named 2nd team All-Pro. A much better recognition than the Pro Bowl. But the fact that Smith got 45 of the 50 1st team votes, only makes the Pro Bowl snub all the more baffling.

gopherwrestler Posted January 5, 2018 Share Posted January 5, 2018 Dont forget Rhodes made it as a 2nd team also! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vike daddy Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 Robert O’Neill, the Navy Seal credited with killing Osama bin Laden, said Saturday on Fox News TV that he has given the Vikings a motivational team talk about grit. O’Neill, who sounded the Vikings Gjallarhorn before their 34-7 victory over Cincinnati last month, is a huge Vikings fan. https://www.twincities.com/2018/01/06/charley-walters-its-a-good-thing-vikings-arent-favored-to-win-super-bowl/ 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted January 7, 2018 Share Posted January 7, 2018 I don’t think it’s a coincidence that O’Niell gave that speech Saturday night before the Cincinnati game, and Rudolph’s ankle miraculously felt better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it is just a "regular" season award just like the MVP voting. Edited January 7, 2018 by gopherwrestler Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While it’s a regular season award, just like the MVP voting, playoffs seem to come into play. Especially for a coach like McVay who made a bad decision by resting his starters in week 17.
