***OFFICIAL*** Vikings vs Seahawks NFC Playoff Game Thread (1 Viewer)

[Zow]

Pretty sure if you're OK with football being played in this kind of weather you're OK with segregated schools and internment camps.

Terrible analogy.

 

[dschuler]

With all the "It's so cold" angles they played in the pregame it's a wonder that didn't revisit all the times where guys got frostbite and hypothermia in cold games past.

Weird.

Exactly. Some people don't get out much

 

[ROCKET]

Seattle need to abonden the run for the most part and get Wilson out of the pocket. It's obvious the weather is a huge factor but their current game plan isn't going to work.

 

[dschuler]

Terrible penalty there.

 

[Jobber]

WTHF Rhodes??!!??

 

[sports_fan]

45 yard FG not even worth attempting?

Too cold, ball probably wouldn't make it to the goal posts.

Oh, I didn't realize it's cold out. Since no one is talking about it.

 

[skol asylum]

Cmon Rhodes. Turn around.

 

[The General]

Easy call.

 

[Johnny Rock]

Just once I'd like to see Rhodes turn around for the ball. So much talent. C'mon man.

 

[sports_fan]

Rhodes has really not had a good year.

Your face is a terrible analogy.

So?

 

[ROCKET]

Also keep challenging Rhoades

 

[skol asylum]

Nice play Kendricks!

 

[Billy Bats]

Bad pass, Chris.

 

[dschuler]

It seems like the Vikings have much more energy out here than Seattle. They should play every game in this weather

 

[The General]

Wilson floating it all over the place.

 

[dirtyjay]

Just double team Baldwin and the Vikings will win. Wilson has no one else and the run game is bad.

They practiced outside all week I heard. Is that right? The might be the difference.

 

[ShamrockPride]

That ball just dies on all these punts.

 

[TommyKramer]

Just down it here.

 

[sports_fan]

Just run out the clock

 

[ConnSKINS26]

Lockett will make a big play if they do that. You could argue he already did.

 

[ROCKET]

smart decision by Carroll, go in and regroup only down by 3

 

[ShamrockPride]

Yay! It took the whole first half but we finally got a sticky for this thread!

 

[skol asylum]

Taking a knee? Denny advising here? Cmon man.

 

[snogger]

I know many are going to think this is due to that one call but I have been wishing for the past few years they'd get rid of the "Spot" foul on PI.. Go to the College 15 yards.. No Penalty should be 30+ yards..

Off season rule changes..

Both teams get the ball in overtime regardless with what the first team does

Catch - Two feet down and possession.. Catch.. period.. No "going to the ground" crap..

and the above mentioned PI change.

 

[sho nuff]

Pete's gum froze, had to toss it.

 

[beef]

I wasn't sure if Minny would be able to hang. Good for them. Viks playing solid. Beating GB in GB gave them the confidence.

 

[Johnny Rock]

I'm sure players will rehydrate at halftime but I haven't seen players drinking much on the sidelines, probably rightfully for fear of it freezing on their face. But cramps could be a factor late in the game.

Maybe that's the difference. AP looked better in the second quarter IMO

 

[ShamrockPride]

Score may as well be 0-0. Still anyone's game.

 

[sports_fan]

Minny going to regret not scoring more this half

They should be trying to outscore their opponent IMO.

 

[snogger]

Taking a knee? Denny advising here? Cmon man.

Better choice then the Denny choice to throw when up in the first half giving a TD to the Defense..

Agreed.

 

[The General]

Ugly first half. Wilson cannot throw the ball in this weather. Not good.

 

[skol asylum]

I am impressed with the Vikings. Hopefully they can keep up the intensity.

Yeah i know. I just want the team to keep up the intensity they have going.

 

[thatguy]

Ugly first half. Wilson cannot throw the ball in this weather. Not good.

I was hoping his one season in Wisconsin would have prepared him a little bit, no idea if he ever played in conditions anywhere near these though.

 

[dickey moe]

It's really uncomfortable sitting here in my chonies wrapped in a blanket on my couch stuffing my face with Doritos while in my temperature-controlled residence.

 

[dschuler]

Yeah Wilson looks like I thought Bridgewater would.

In both halves if possible.

 

[IHEARTFF]

I've been told there is no impact on the game from this weather. Take your dehydration like a man.

He had a comment earlier in the week where he said "Once it gets below 20f it all feels the same".

People say this...but college season ends so early before it really gets that bad.

Cool Ranch?

OK

 

[Andy Dufresne]

It's 72 upstairs but only 68 in my basement where my projector is, so I'm watching upstairs.

The weather is taking its toll on all if us.

Do you have trouble pouring water in your mouth when you drink?

Yeah, good point.
