Very much so. This game by every measure should be a blowout right now.
-
Brandon Powell blocking a D end ain't going to work.
-
There he is!
-
He hasn't had a good start for sure. Verse looks like a better player. Just saying...in this game, defense is getting off the field really fast tonight.
-
It's hard to judge.....defense is getting off the field quick. Every stat says this should be 21-0 Vikings. It's wild.
-
What's weird is....that might be the best half of play-calling all year. And they have zero to show for it.
-
Wheels are officially off, lol.
-
Jesus Darnold....throw it away.
-
Those yardage and T.O.P. stats really show how huge those eff ups by Darnold and Bradbury were.
-
That's the first time our sneak didnt look crappy!
-
I personally want less sensitivity on QB calls. I support picking up that flag.
-
Two of the three drives have looked really good only for epic player failures ending them.
-
You can't scheme your way around your center being tossed like a rag doll.
-
What the hell Darnold? Great playcalling and the QB straight up throws it to the defense. Woof.
-
Yeah, Harry needs to hang em up. He's just a step or two slow.
-
The Jags have the worst GM in the league. That team is straight up garbage.
-
Dallas being terrible is delicious in so many ways though.
-
To be fair....Denver is not a very good 5-3 team. But the Ravens pass defense is a major issue for them.
-
When you look at the slate of gsmes, you can tell why the Vikes got flexed. Matchups are ugly this week.
-
Flacco really makes it diffivult to predict. I think a narrow win sounds right.
-
That was a retraction? If you say so.
-
I missed the "my bad, I overstated my case about where they would rank and was too dismissive of valid points on the state of the scoring offense in total" Those arguments are what derailed any good faith consideration. I do see where you're trying to go, I don't wish to engage with it if all arguments made are in bad faith.
-
My number didn't cherry pick or flirt with counterfactuals. And still, after all the cherry picking, 26th still isn't "easily bottom five". You can't back up "easily bottom five". You argued 8th in scoring was "barely top ten" to dismiss it. Tried not to count field goals. It's a fallacious argument, from the beginning. You either can't make the point fairly or, for some bizarre reason, choose this unfair/embellished one. If you have a good case to make....why not just make it without the hyperbole? Or obviously narrowed criteria?
-
I didnt watch....but that's nuts.

Unlike you, I didn't cherry pick anything. I simply added up their total points over the course of the last 14 quarters. 3 against GB, 23 against the Jets, 29 against the Lions, and 20 against the rams. That's a total of 75 points. Take those 75 points and divide by 14 quarters and it comes out to 5.35 points per quarter. If they maintained that pace they'd be averaging 21.4 points per game. Which is decidely above the bottom of the league. Which is exactly what I said. I'm sorry you literally didn't do the math for your position. I did. At this point, to be "easily bottom five in the league" they'd have to be sub 17 points per game. No method of calculation will arrive at a number to support that conclusion. What I just did was demonstrate exactly what multiple people are trying to tell you: you aren't making a good argument. You're using half-baked calculations, broad generalizations, and cherry picked statistics to arrive at the conclusion you want rather than using the numbers to guide a conclusion. You're not doing analysis, you're stumping. You took what could have been a sustainable, reasonable point and dressed it in hyperbole and falsehoods to the point that it should be called out for what it is. Schlock.
