I Admit It - The Minnesota Vikings Are For Real
There is no more convincing win than a comfortable dismantling of an NFC contender in week 2. The Vikings weren't supposed to be here. They certainly weren't supposed to be here without Addison, Hockenson or a full game of Jefferson. But they are. And it's undeniable.

    There’s so much to like about this Vikings team. Great fans, great players, great stadium. All that being said I'm a Niner's fan, and I think they'll win this game. Would it surprise me if the Vikings won? Not at all. Short week, west to east, early start don't help. But I think the Niners will want to get this one to avenge last year's loss. 3 turnovers, and the zero blitz to end the half. 35/45 for 378 from Cousins and it was a 22-17 game. I find it hard to believe things will go that bad again, but that's why they play them! See you Sunday Vikings fans. Stay classy.

    What’s stopping Brian Flores from doing fake Hawk rules?

That seems easy enough to punish an offense that tries to predict the Hawk rules.

    The key takeaway from Sunday is that the Vikings played a deeply flawed opponent. And even given the weakness of their adversary, they still punted 4 times, turned the ball over twice, and only scored 21 offensive points on 10 possessions. The remainder of the schedule has zero "cupcake" teams like the Giants. Given Sunday's performance, the Vikings will go 5-12 and that is if they beat their other flawed opponents: the Jaguars, Titans, Cardinals, and Falcons.

    • @TylerSmith-vz3ch
      @TylerSmith-vz3ch 4 дні тому

      I think some of the punts came when koc went to a "safer" offense (one thing he needs to work on is playing aggressive with a lead) , cj ham fumble on first drive would have at least ended in a field goal based off how following drives went fumbles can ruin games as we saw last season though, the int I think is avoided if it was jefferson or addison vs the 2 dbs (#11 had chance at the ball and our other receivers win 50/50 balls at like a 75/25 rate) . I get where your coming from with the flawed team take but at least it was dominating a flawed team how they should be instead of letting them keep it close. I don't think we are winning a super bowl this year unless darnold turns into a 2017 keenum/ nick foles but taking the nfc north back and shutting up lions fans would be acceptable for the real first year of koc/kam/flores era here.

      @@TylerSmith-vz3ch The Vikings scored on three possessions and punted on four possessions - hardly a domination. The Saints dominated the Panthers - scoring on their first nine possessions and punting on their last two, after they were up by 37 points. The Cowboys punted six times against the Browns and still put up 26 points against a much better defense than the Giants. The Giants possessed the ball eleven times - if they had any offensive talent, they could have won.

      Is it? And if so then that must be the same takeaway for the Cowboys and Falcons and Lions and Bears. I have watched all Darnold's games over the last 3 years and suggested that he would play exactly as he did, (my score prediction was 31-10). And I expected that most folks would settle for the conventional wisdom and blame the Giants for being a bad team. So tell me what will all the folks that regurgitate second hand cliche takes say next week when the Vikes beat the 49ers and Giants beat the Commanders???

      @@TylerSmith-vz3ch Exactly, except the game was over in the 3rd quarter and KOC shut the offence down going into the 4th quarter. He just started running out the clock and bringing in the rotational starters.

    I think Tillery and Ward helped Phillips a lot, both on the field and keeping him fresh on the rotation - only 37 snaps (52%). Tillery absorbed 3 Linemen on the stunt when Phillips got his sack.

    So small data sets then, not samples? We're not randomly, or systematically sampling, every 5th snap or anything, just that there isn't much data.

    Per Pro Football Reference - Darnold's accuracy in 2022 was 77.1% of throws on target. The same year Kirk's accuracy was 76.5% and he went 13-4.

    If Sam wins the division, and or makes the NFCCG - I doubt they let him walk. I'm pretty sure they'd at least extend him one year, and maybe trade him mid-season if McCarthy is ready.
