[Lambert]

For those watching the game, how good does Pinner actually look? Is he worth a pickup for those with a game next week?

 

[beavers]

Why did Min go for two?

 

[Mt. Man]

why did MIN go for 2?

Mishandled snap on the PAT.

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

Why did Min go for two?

are you kidding me??

 

[King of the Wolfies]

Why did Min go for two?

Because Childress is an idiot............

 

[Bad_Mo]

Is that technically a failed 2 pt. conversion or missed PAT?

No. He's not kidding. Totally legit question. If you don't have an answer, don't post.MIN tried to PAT but the snap was bad. Johnson tried to pass so it shows up like a 2 point conversion attempt.J

 

[Mt. Man]

I think failed 2 pt, because they never got a chance to kick.

 

[Lemmiwinks]

I know it's wrong to say this, but I hope pinner sustains a minor injury that keeps him out for the rest of the game

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

I know it doesn't help... but those who have Fason... say to yourself "I depended on Ciatrick Fason, not Larry Johnson, to win my league".

dumbest post of the year.

Most bitter post of the year. Guy had one decent game ..has carried the ball 12 times all year. Yeah, i'm the dumb one, it seems.

I've seen dumber, but not by much.1. Not everybody had a top 3 pick.2. Some have been hit by injuries.3. This game presented a great matchup for whoever ran for the Vikes.4. Fason was reported as a starter evrywhere.5. I'm guessing nobody benched LJ for Fasonother than that your post was well thought out, intelligently posted, and full of great information.

Keep it on this game or get out of this thread. TIA.J

Hi Bad mo,I'm pretty sure it gets scored as a failed 2 point conversion.J

 

[Ned]

I hate you Brad Childress. Thanks to you, I will never again have a Viking on my team. Way to go, buddy.

i think mr childress might lose a little sleep over this tonight...

Hey Joe - If you're watching the game (it's not on for me), any thoughts on the value if any of Pinner going forward?

 

[King of the Wolfies]

good, DET scores. I hope MN loses and they fire Childress.

Hi Lambert,Been flipping back and forth. Will try to watch a little closer. He's looked good. Revenge factor agains his old team playing in some I'm guessing. Taylor will be back next week though I think. So I'm not excited long term.J

 

[Mt. Man]

And Jamar Fletcher keeps me from changing the channel halfway through the 2nd.

Well, that, and I might be one of the few actually watching the game, instead of living via Gamecenter.

 

[The Dude]

C'mon, it's humorous. You got to laugh about it.

I started him too.

 

[shakeybarn]

Wow... is Jones struggling or are there really zero opportunity, and being met behind the line?

 

[librahi]

get hurt pinner you #####

 

[Lemmiwinks]

Pinner's on pace for 40+ carries, FYI

 

[Joe Bryant]

get hurt pinner you #####

Have a nice day, Guy.J

 

[Leeroy Jenkins]

MIN has the best run-D in the the NFL right now.

 

[Sweeper]

why did MIN go for 2?

I know. what's going on with this play? Insight would be interesting. Anyone? Anyone?

 

[Mt. Man]

On each of his 3 carries, at least one defender's been in the backfield.The worst obviously was the loss of 8, where the o-lineman completely whiffed on blocking Leber. The other two, he didn't have a lot of room either.

 

[Fireballer]

16 carries in the 1st half, Fason has to get some love in the 2nd half.

 

[King of the Wolfies]

Pinner fumbles...go DET go

 

[PizzaDeliveryGuy]

Fumble Pinner. Fason owner hope for a benching.

 

[Workhorse]

OK, now that Pinner can't hold on to the ball, get Fason some carries, please.

 

[Lemmiwinks]

Pinner fumbles! Must not be used to toting the rock 20 times in one half. He hasn't carried 20 times EVER!

No. He's not kidding. Totally legit question. If you don't have an answer, don't post.MIN tried to PAT but the snap was bad. Johnson tried to pass so it shows up like a 2 point conversion attempt.J

No kidding, people may be upset about Pinner/Fason, but seeing -1.2 next to Kevin Jones is better than that.

 

[redman]

I hate Brad F'ing Childress!

 

[Sweeper]

get hurt pinner you #####

Have a nice day, Guy.J

Wow. Joe has been reduced to running the asylum today. Way to keep the kids in line.

 

[Lemmiwinks]

I wouldn't start anyone against Min run defense except LT or LJ (maybe) if I had any other choice. They are unbelieveable up the middle.

Yea, I caught it as I scrolled through the next page. I just assumed that this would go unaddressed as I noticed the current road the thread had wandered down.

 

[my man otis]

unbelievable that the lions are only down 10 at this point.

 

[MOAT]

I'm watching the game and I don't see any reason for Pinner to get any fewer carries in the 2nd. Every time I see Fason in there he is pass blocking.

I started Fason so I'm as frustrated as everyone else. Ugh. I benched Houston and will probably watch him go for 150 and 2 TDs.

 

[Matt_The_Fantasy_Master]

Sure looked liked Gordon fumbled that. Why didn't they review?

 

[Mt. Man]

Sure looked liked Gordon fumbled that. Why didn't they review?

Announcers said it wasn't reviewable And, on the last play of the half, Fason gets his numerous owners a few points.

 

[King of the Wolfies]

Fason is up to a whooping 21 yards.

 

[MBL12PK]

unbelievable that the lions are only down 10 at this point.

After looking at the play by play...this is exactly right!

 

[ramomax]

For anyone's watching

E.Sims was on fire at the beginning,then he's disappeared from the box score.

No tkl,no AST, nothing

Is he injured?

Plz everything matters.....

 

[Slippery Blue]

fason will get a TD before the end of the game for sure....mark my words

 

[Chemical X]

 

[banjomatic]

Screw all this RB talk, where the heck is ROY?!?!

Hi ramon,Yes, Sims was injured. Not sure what it was but didn't seem too serious. Still in uniform on sidelines. Said return was likely.J
