I was way wrong about Baker. Thought he was the safest pick out of all the QBs in that draft class. He may squeeze a few more years in the league holding a clipboard. No team is going to trust him being a starting option for a long time.

I thought he'd be a fine QB, like a Dilfer or something slightly more.....but, ya.

I just read Golf is Not a Game of Perfect, and feel like he could use a mental coach.....

3 concussions in 1 season is insane. Time to shut the rookie down for the season. He’s probably not a long term player in the NFL. 

Good lord that’s scary. Somehow the Vikings escaped scrutiny with regards to the darrishaw concussions. But that was bad as well.

Great, Harrison Smith, Hunter and Peterson are all out of practice with an illness. The good news is they have plenty of time to recover before Sunday. The bad news is that there's plenty of time to get the rest of the defense sick.

Though, maybe those are three of the only guys we need to worry about. Maybe just isolate Za'Darius.

Could have a lot to do with the Vikes being +2 against the lions

Looks like no Vikings are going to miss the game, plus the Lions also had 4-5 guys sick and they are fine. If anything, Harrison Smith popping up questionable with a neck injury out of nowhere is the most concerning.

I have a feeling we're going to lose by 2 scores... just a feeling. This feels like a classic divisional game loss, we're due for one.

The Vikings could easily lose to the Lions to tomorrow. The Lions are playing well. I hope no one sets their hair on fire, losing tomorrow would not end their season.

We’re not going to run the table the rest of the way. I am not confident we’ll see a win today, which is fine by me.

Yeah, it would be nice to see them beat a good team though(and the Lions are a good team)I know they beat the Bills, but many say that was a fluke. But losing isn’t the end, they’re going to win the division.

Good luck to Kirk not getting killed with two backup OL.....

He’s been getting beaten down for a while now. Most of the season in fact. That’s why you can’t just say “it’s ok to lose x game”. Continuing to win these games so we can rest him a bit at the end (or secure the bye) it will be a huge help for the playoffs.

Agreed.
