**SNF Vikings at Lions** (-3, 56) 8:20 (2 Viewers)

what in the holy hell was that pass?!?!?

Tipped

As Collinsworth pointed out, Lions kinda outsmarted themselves on that play. The Vikings were expecting a run, but as a result they got such a push up the middle that they were able to disrupt the pass

 

[BobbyLayne]

Little too cute there

dude made a play

Got the look they wanted Jamo was WAO

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Let’s gooooooo! Should be 7-6. +2.5 is all I need.

 

[BLOCKED_PUNT]

the nfl is so odd or I'm just bad backseat coach but run it on short pass it on long. Seems like the nfl runs it on long and passes it on short. I get the whole "they'd never expect this..." but it just seems so dumb to me sometimes.

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

We welcome the Bucs to the Linc for some much need retribution.

Get in line. Bucs beat just about every NFC playoff team this year

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Amik is traveling to go with 18 - first time AG has had his CB1 shadow all year

Really wanted the raiders to re-sign amik. Happy to see him balling

I go for a deep pass on 2nd &1, but otherwise, I'm QB sneaking for 1 or less yards.

so he doesn't quite get the snaps of the other guys, which hurts for IDP.

It’s true, but he’s a tackling monster. He was one of my best LBs in a tackle heavy league before he got hurt.

Pace is pretty productive in his role. Had a couple games in the 90-100% snap share. He’s not an IDP starter, but he’s good depth, and at 24 he’s a dude I wish I had on more rosters.

If Cashman misses any time he’s a nice asset.

 

[BLOCKED_PUNT]

The Eagles are going to miss Jalen Hurts so much when he retires.

Love him. I picked him up early.

 

[Snotbubbles]

Them 3 points the Vikes passed on would be nice to have right now.

 

[jon_mx]

Shockingly low scoring so far.

 

[Insein]

In like 10 years?

Collinsworth telling us what @BobbyLayne already told us

 

[BobbyLayne]

nice stop - without blitzing

great to see the Lions playing complementary football

forgot how good that feels, haven’t had it in a month

Detroit gets the ball first in the 2nd half

I mean yes but it was 4th and the length of my Johnson, just fall forward a few inches

Yeah that comment was out of left field unless I’m missing something.

 

[ShamrockPride]

They're pounding Darnold (pause).

 

[ProstheticRGK]

AG calling a helluva game

 

[travdogg]

No idea what Darnold is looking at. He had 2 guys open.

ETA: Maybe he needs halftime to calm down, but he is making awful reads and poor throws in this game. Both these teams are lucky this game is as close as it is right now.

 

[Snotbubbles]

Probably 3 guys running free right at him.

I think Darnold settles down the second half and starts hitting 18 routinely

Ben Johnson likes to stay unpredictable.

 

[BobbyLayne]

Amik is traveling to go with 18 - first time AG has had his CB1 shadow all year

Really wanted the raiders to re-sign amik. Happy to see him balling

he was decent in the slot all year but since he was forced to play outside (CB1 broke his jaw) he’s been stellar

undersized but he is sticky

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Min should be up 9-7 right now.

 

[fred_1_15301]

Wow what a massive mistake by the kicker

 

[Gr00vus]

A lot of non-clutchness happening here.

 

[mr roboto]

Oh my god. Even the kicker is pissing down his leg.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Love him. I picked him up early.

Got him as a toss-in on a trade. “Balancing piece”.

So, um, a few inches is what you're telling us?

 

[ProstheticRGK]

That Kick off is gonna cost them 3

 

[JoeJoe88]

What is that celebration St. Brown keeps doing lol

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

Collinsworth telling us what @BobbyLayne already told us

Have you ever seen them in the same place at the same time?

 

[mr roboto]

KOC needs to light this team up. Make them more scared of him than the other team.

 

[BobbyLayne]

nice!

chance to double up - score & get the ball to open the half

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Good lord

 

[Gjallarhorn]

Kicking the ball out of bounds is the most Vikings thing ever.

 

[BobbyLayne]

What is that celebration St. Brown keeps doing lol

something off Tik Tok

 

[ProstheticRGK]

Reichard looks like the guy in the war movie that you just know is gonna freeze up in fear and let the hero get shot by a nazi.

 

[mr roboto]

nice!

No. MN gets the ball.

 

[jon_mx]

It iis so nice to have Bates.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

What is that celebration St. Brown keeps doing lol

The Vikings are doing it too

 

[BroncoFreak_2K3]

That’s a big three points in this game

 

[crushedspirit]

Not sure what gameplan the Vikes offense came in with vs a D that everyone knows blitzes, (5th highest rate).

 

[ignatiusjreilly]

Very uneven first half for both teams, but I'll take the 4-point lead.

Defense is a very encouraging sign going forward

 

[urbanhack]

Viking better set the ****ing alarm clock.

 

[Insein]

Vikings would not be up 9-7. They would not have had the turnover that led to their other FG because they would have kicked off giving Lions the ball at the 30 instead of the 3.

 

[DA RAIDERS]

Should be 10-9

 

[TheAristocrat]

What is that celebration St. Brown keeps doing lol

The Vikings are doing it too

They are but what is it?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Why do kickers always look so sweaty?

They aren’t doing **** until they come out & kick, and they they half jog 4 steps and swing a leg.

How you gonna be all sweaty from that?
