We just keep getting better and better.
The KC game was crazy, hope you guys start losing soon because I don't want either of you fuckers beating my Raiders in the playoffs especially in Oakland
I've been a little concerned that the Giants keep winning and staying 2 games back, but looking at their remaining schedule ... I can see them easily going 2-3. @ Steelers, vs Cowboys, vs Lions, @ Eagles, @ Redskins.
I don't think they beat the Steelers this week, I think the Cowboys will be ready to play next week and look to avenge the season opener. They can beat the Lions, but that's not an easy game. Should win in Philly, but division is always tough and the Eagles might be playing for a wildcard depending on the results of the next couple of games. Same with Washington in Week 17, both teams will be fighting for the playoffs. There's not really an easy win on that schedule, and I haven't seen much from the Giants to think they can suddenly pull away from the pack. I think (hope) that walking this thin line with all these close wins catches up to them and Dallas can pull away with the division.
Yeah I don't think Giants will win the division. The thing with close wins is a double edged sword, definitely. It means that we aren't running away with games and the other team always has a chance. The good part for us is that winning close games shows and develops toughness. It's reminding me a bit of the year the Broncos had last year (though their defense was definitely better and offense was definitely shittier).
To be honest I think we are more likely to lose to Philly or Washington than Pittsburgh. They are so over hyped as a team. Their defense is utter trash. I think we can go in and take the W, especially if they leave Odell as our punt returner (he got the role last week after Rainey fumbled). Putting him back there gives us more juice in the return game and could bring more life to our offense. Really cool if it happens too cuz AB is the only other #1 who does it
Talking about close games, I am super stoked at 9-2, buuuuutttt...
We beat the Saints by 1, lost to Atlanta by 7, got Tennessee by 7, Ravens by 1, Chargers by 3, legit beat by KC, crushed the Jags, slipped by the Buccs with 200 penalty yards and 6 points, Broncos by 10 but we shut their offense down and ran like madmen which isn't a super likely repeat scenario, beat the Texans by 7 in Mexico, and then just had another 3 point win against the Panthers.
At least it's exciting though.

Why do special teams players insist on touching the ball? I'm not sure if they'll conclude this was a touchback or not, but there's no fucking reason for that Packer to touch that ball. It checked up and stopped at the 1 yard line all on its own. Why mess with it? Do they get a bonus for being first to touch it?
I half expected them to rule the tying td not a td.Quote:

That's pretty good, bdog. Hats off.
Rip Joe McKnight
these dumbass vikings fans boo every time an official talks
terrible holding call. that wasn't holding.
LOL WHAT IS GOING ON WITH THE OFFICIALSq
it should probably be 14 or 21-0 right now
I just tuned in, seems like I missed a boring half.
not at all, there were a lot of big plays by dallas that all got called back by bullshit penalties
There were 2 big plays. That's not "a lot." Don't be mantis. Log run by Elliott called back by borderline hold/good sell by the LB. Then an interception was wiped off by illegal hands to the face, which was the right call.
vikings offense is so garbage lol
their defense is doing a pretty good job so far, but if vikings don't score soon it'll be over i think
i disagree. our offense is doing very well against them if all of their big gains don't get called backQuote:

looooooooooooooooooooooooool nice one vikings
There has not been another first down negated by penalty. Please show me these multiple first downs in the play by play. You can't.Quote:

Their offense is so bad it kind of lulls you to sleep. Every time Bradford makes a bad throw or the Vikings pick up penalties and have to punt you think the game is going well. But after three quarters you only have 190 yards and 7 points and suddenly they force a fumble in field goal range and you're about to be trailing.
i checked, you're right, must have just seemed like it because we are in 1st and 20 all the time. which is just as much a drive killer as a recalled first down. the 43 yarder called back, the interception, the block by escobar making a 2nd and 3 a 1st and 20...can't win making these kinds of mistakes, especially when they wipe out positive plays.Quote:

Escobar keeps getting beat and committing penalties. But those holding calls are generated by the Vikings pass rush, so I don't think it's fair just to blame our mistakes. And the line can't open up the holes it usually does so Elliott is stuck with 3 yard runs. Thank goodness for Prescoot's legs.
Yup, there's a hold to slow down the blitz. The Vikings secondary is doin a good job on play action and forcing Dak to scramble or hold the ball.
the one on the 43 yard rush was irrelevant and didn't stop any rush
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !
What a big play.
Brown is so terrible.
he was playing so well early in the season too when scandy was down. he must have hit "the wall"
cant win games if you dont score tds
Can't win games if you can't punt the ball more than 25 yards, either. That Vikings punter is garbage tonight.
