ErinInTheSky Posted January 15, 2018 Share Posted January 15, 2018 I’ll be honest. I don’t feel that terrible. We had 22 players on IR, for the first time have a TON of cap space, and get like 5 rookie starters for pennies on the dollar the next 4 years. We have 2nd year Kamara and Ramczyc and Lattimore to look forward to. If we can get another good year or 2 out of Brees we will be back next year. Good game to the 2-3 Vikes fans I spoke to here.

Ji actually made a solid point...gulp...we don't get the medium snows anymore...it's 20" or dustings...that I would agree is frustrating.

Expand Legendary finish...especially after some recent finishes that didn't go so well... I'm so happy for Diggs it's not funny. He did amazing things at UMD. A literal one man highlight reel surrounded by mediocrity. I figured he would make it in the pros but you never know. I wore my UMD sweatshirt last night and rooted for the Vikes. That final play will be talked about long after we're both dead. One of my favorite college QB's of all time (Graham Harrell @ Tx Tech) never made it to the pros. Crabtree was his #1 receiver and he's done fine in the pros. Not sure why nobody drafted Harrell. His gunslinger style reminded me of Dan Fouts.

Expand Sometimes real winners don't do it on stats alone right? Look at Romo. Dude should have won a ring or at least got to more (some) superbowls but a clutch QB he was not. I always told my cowboy fan friends that I hope Romo plays with them forever because I never have to worry about listening to a bunch of superbowl trash talk. I'm impressed with Keenum. He may not be the most accurate or a gunslinger but when you deliver in the clutch then the softer stats become much less important. Philly's D is going to get after Keenum. Will probably be relentless. If they can break the pressure and get the ball in the playmakers' hands then MN will simply outscore an underpowered Philly offense.

Thats where this game will be won....trenches. Minn O line will have a challenge with the top D line in the league. Keenum will need to get the ball out quick or have alot of screen and slant plays drawn up, which i saw little of either yesterday. Both teams are well-coached. Should be a very good game. I dont think the Vikes will have as much success Sunday throwing downfield like yesterday. Eagles D has this thing for shutting down the top receivers. Not saying Diggs wont come thru clutch again, but dont underestimate the Eagles D. I know on paper Minn is #1 but lets see what happens Sunday. My heart says Philly, my gut says Vikes win it all this year. We'll see. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OU is already set at 40. That might be too generous. Most importantly....the Jags need to sack the F out of Brady and send the Pats home for the season.
