Not very confident about this one. If you want to talk during the game, hit up the game thread at purplepain.

Spread is Seattle by 2.5. I don't think either team is as good as their record. I do think the Vikes are a better team with Thielen. Hoping the Vikes show up tonight.

I have no particular affinity for Rhodes, but he sure seems to get “beat” a lot on plays where he’s got great coverage and the ball just happens to be perfectly placed.

Also, not sure how a guy who gets knocked cold passes a concussion test five minutes later.

I also question this....

I don't get it either. That's why I think they need to do some drills to help him play the ball. Rarely does he get a hand on the ball before the receiver, despite better position at times.

Looked like they were channeling Denny Green at the end of the half. But they got busy, and got down deep enough in Seattle territory to kick the FG

[Mike Sixel]

Looks like the Vikings and gophers might be the same team. Can beat the bad teams.... Hoping to be proven wrong....

[Mr. Brooks]

Rhodes doesn't even belong on an NFL roster. He's one of the worst corners in the league, IMO.

Not sure what happened to him, there was a time he was elite.

Zimmer continuing to play him is just another example of him being overrated as a head coach.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Zimmer must have left his red bean bag in the locker room on that PI-Int

That wasn't even close to PI. The ball hit Diggs hands before he even touched him.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Nice score, there.

 

But at this point? It looks like the Vikings have the inside track on a 6 seed, while the Pack looks like the 3 seed. Meaning...

[Mr. Brooks]

Diggs is completely overrated. That's three times tonight the ball hit him in the hands and he didn't catch it.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

That wasn't even close to PI. The ball hit Diggs hands before he even touched him.

well watch the replay and let us know

[Mr. Brooks]

well watch the replay and let us know

They showed it several times. Once it bounces off Diggs hands it's a tipped ball and there is no PI. And he didn't even make contact until after the ball hit Diggs hands.

[Mr. Brooks]

This team will never win anything as long as Zimmer is the head coach.

The defender was mugging him. The NFL instituted a rule change in the offseason based on a similar play.

Post the video. A still shot tells me nothing.

Perhaps there was some contact, a hand on the back, but if that's PI then almost every pass is PI. That wasn't even close to PI,IMO.

[Mr. Brooks]

And find a real kicker for once, unreal.

Cousins is just not a bigtime QB, no matter how much you pay him. One of the reasons I want Bumgarner so much, is no matter his season....... he is a bigtime pitcher. Gets it done in the big games. Cousins..... 3rd and 4th and 3 with the game on the line...... and he totally choked. He has one more glorius chance, albeit a very short chance.

totally interference. why didn't zimmer challenge?

[Mike Sixel]

Zimmer... defensive genius my butt.

They scored three touchdowns and a field goal, on the road, versus a good team. This is on the awful defense. I have no idea how anyone blames Cousins. The int sure wasn't his fault.

[h2oface]

At least it wasn't too many men on the field.

Because down 4, with about 2 minutes left, regardless of whatever else has happened, the game is in his hands. totally. And he misfires on 2 consecutive chip passes on 3rd and 4th down. That's why.

 

0-8 on Monday. No matter the team. No matter the opponent. There's another indication of not a bigtime QB for ya.

It's a team game. That stat is stupid.

I hate stats with no intelligence. 

 

Do you know how Viking fans and West Virginians are alike?

I probably shouldn't say, I guess.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Seattle always seemed to pick up the rushing yards they needed tonight. That’s concerning.

 

Not that we weren’t already concerned about other aspects of this team.

[Badsmerf]

Cousins wasn't bad. Diggs had a bad night. Again, not having Thielen limits this offense. The end of the game is where it really showed. I mean... Treadwell is getting a bunch of play, and he was cut twice this year.

 

I'll also say having Abdula on this team and not Patterson is idiocy. Kickoffs have been horrible, and Patterson could at least add some diversity to the offense. Abdula adds nothing.

 

This is a first round playoff loss team. Complete waste of the previous off season. Just lose the rest of the games and get a better draft pick.
