[timschochet]

What is the percentage of home teams winning the divisional playoff week? Gotta be huge. 

 

[The_Man]

Yeah Shanahan isn’t gonna give Jimmy G another chance to keep this a game 

 

[The General]

Jimmy G might not throw another pass

 

[Manster]

Vikes D looks like they've already given up

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Hot knife through butter. 

 

[skol asylum]

Beat down. Blah.

50

 

[IHEARTFF]

that was a pretty sick drive

 

[Osaurus]

Bet Mike Florio is feeling silly right now 

 

[Dinkle Heimer]

If Minny can do a better job against the run,  they have a shot.

Welp.....

 

[rockaction]

Jimmy G might not throw another pass

There's no need to, really. 

 

[snogger]

That should pretty much do it.. Vikings D has no answer, and the Offense now can't go with their bread-n-butter of Play Action as the Running game hasn't gone anywhere.. Time for dinner

 

[Wingnut]

What a statement drive. All runs 

 

[OrtonToOlsen]

That's equivalent of targeting.

Not really.

 

[NutterButter]

Vikings being pushed around

 

[IHEARTFF]

diggs garbage time

 

[Interseptopus]

Hot knife through butter. 

Sad for Vikings fans. No shot at turning this around

 

[The General]

Vikes D looks like they've already given up

Feels like they have been out there forever. Vikes offense has been hot garbage.

 

[IHEARTFF]

50

either they win or they dont

 

[badmojo1006]

Vikings can't stop the run.

 

[rockaction]

Let's hope your dinner isn't as bland as your offensive performance aside from the Diggs throw.

 

[timschochet]

Still this game is nowhere near over. 14 points is nothing.

 

[Ministry of Pain]

Game is going fast

From 14-7 with a chance to tie the game about 1:00 left in the 2nd Q

5:00 left in the 3rd and it's now 24-10 Niners, pretty hard swing and shows the Niners are likely the better team.

Still almost 20:00 of football left but it feels like it did after the Niners completed their opening drive to start the game

 

[Interseptopus]

Viking fans are just happy to be here. Their superbowl was last week. 

 

[belljr]

either they win or they dont

Exactly!

 

[Johnny Rock]

Sad for Vikings fans. No shot at turning this around

Need a fake punt TD pass on first down.

 

[sports_fan]

Vikes defense is gassed. Can't run. Can't stop the run. Need a big play fast to have any hope

 

[Interseptopus]

Need a fake punt TD pass on first down.

Sounds about right

 

[timschochet]

That should pretty much do it.. Vikings D has no answer, and the Offense now can't go with their bread-n-butter of Play Action as the Running game hasn't gone anywhere.. Time for dinner

You guys are giving up way too soon. It’s not like it’s a 28 point lead. A few big plays, a turnover- don’t be so negative! 

 

[OrtonToOlsen]

Guys....calm down.

Zimmer is a defensive genius.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Sad for Vikings fans. No shot at turning this around

I mean, there’s always a shot, but that was a bad look for the Vikings D/ST. 

 

[rockaction]

I wonder what eXP is right now. Can't be a good look for the Vikes.

Gosh, Abdullah looks like he has a ton of space until he doesn't. That's serious contain by the 9ers.

 

[travdogg]

That was known going in.. Only chance the Vikings had was that G choking in his first Playoff game.. Felt last week they had a 10% chance of winning.. This week, it was 5%.. 49ers are not the #1 seed by a fluke. :always next year: :(

They were a yard away from being the #5 seed.

 

[Wingnut]

Time of possession

SF: 27:01

MIN: 13:05

 

[The General]

SF has 3 dudes in the backfield on every snap.

 

[Johnny Rock]

Vikes could use a first down this half.

 

[rockaction]

I love how Collinsworth was calling for the bootleg and Bosa sniffed it out.

 

[NutterButter]

Keep running those screen passes

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Cousins coulda run for that. 

 

[OrtonToOlsen]

Cousins looks lost as hell.

 

[travdogg]

Cousins has to take off with that. He'll take a hit, but 50-50 he gets the 1st.

 

[Gachi]

he could've run for the first..

 

[The_Man]

Cousins made a business decision not to tuck and run for the first down there 

You like that?

 

[rockaction]

Cousins easily runs for that first down.

This is the Cousins implosion, apparently. Head-scratching. 

 

[SHIZNITTTT]

If he takes one more stride he has the 1st down.  OOF!

 

[sports_fan]

Should have run that

 

[snogger]

You guys are giving up way too soon. It’s not like it’s a 28 point lead. A few big plays, a turnover- don’t be so negative! 

You are watching the same game as me.. right ... The Vikings offense needs Play action.. When the D is up by 14, they can pretty much give up on the run D and pin their ears back.. and the Vikings D is winded..

well

 

[Osaurus]

Vikes could use a first down this half.

They have 4 in the game so far. I see at least 8
