Sunday night football Saints vs Vikings (1 Viewer)

[oddsbodkins]

2 timeouts and you white flag it?? Wow. 

 

[Biabreakable]

So with 30 seconds left the Vikings decide to run with Boone and it is now half time.

They likely should have done that when they had the 1st down near the goal line before the Thielen fumble, but they didn't.

 

[sports_fan]

Oh man going for it?

 

[sports_fan]

Treadwell no!

 

[Biabreakable]

Good catch by Treadwell on the come back route.

Vikings running with Murray on 1st down so far.

Roc Thomas is out with a hamstring. Mike Boone in for a play.

Teo with the pass defensed on 2nd down.

Diggs is a bit short on 3rd down.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

All those weapons and they put the 4rh & 1 in treadwell’s hands?  

 

[oddsbodkins]

Why are they forcing to Treadwell on 4th and 1?

 

[Biabreakable]

Treadwell drops the 4th down the Vikings decided to go for.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Vikes coaching staff:

”hey, remember when we were peppering them with Diggs & Thielen and the Saints had no answer for us?”

yeah?

”let’s completely abandon that - they’d never expect it!” 

 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

I am not a huge fan of this gadget offense. 

Man - wanted that Ingram TD.

Someone needs to get rid of the Hill crap in the playbook

 

[Man In The Box]

How hard does Brees bite his lip every time he sees Hill trot onto the field?

 

[sports_fan]

Intentional grounding for sure

 

[IHEARTFF]

Awful plays there

 

[SengerCJ]

If the saints believe he could be an eventual replacement for Brees I admire them working him in in this copacity. As far as the present team goes, it seems to do nothing more than slightly slow the offense down. 

 

[Loomba]

CBS Sportsline is crediting the Vikings DST with a fumble recovery - at least so far this evening.   Have they made a fumble recovery?   I didn’t think so.   Fantasy owners will want to watch that.  

 

[Rodrigo Duterte]

How in the world is Hill the fastest guy on the team?  Isn't he white?

I did see on wikipedia he is named after a rotary park, lol.

 

[Biabreakable]

The Vikings defense holds the Saints to a field goal after setting them up with great field position again.

It’s really not good. 

I like me a good gadget playbook - Andy Rei/ schtick is fun to watch. 

The saints gadget is like pulling teeth - it’s just so awkward & forced. And it doesn’t work that well compared to say, allowing your HOF QB to manage his offense.

to me it really boils down to that - any play where Brees isn’t behind center is a bad offensive play for the saints, whether they’re running or passing 

 

[sports_fan]

WTF was that???

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

OMFG

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Down. 

 

[sports_fan]

Ah at least he was down

 

[IHEARTFF]

lol cousins, but probably was down

 

[oddsbodkins]

Down but what was going on there?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Terrible ruling on the field. This will not take long. 

 

[baymen]

knee down imo

 

[Man In The Box]

to me it really boils down to that - any play where Brees isn’t behind center is a bad offensive play for the saints, whether they’re running or passing 

Yep. 10% of this crap might work out, but if I’m on the other sideline, I’m thrilled when I see 7 taking a snap. 

 

[Insein]

Knee down. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Down but what was going on there?

Thought maybe he could run for a couple, decided to take the sack, when his knee hit he stopped fighting - which is a mistake - play to the whistle and all. 

 

[Biabreakable]

Merry Christmas!!

defenses will scheme against soon enough and it will be ditched. nothing i have seen makes me think Hill can actually pass consistently at the nfl level.

 

[sports_fan]

Really need to start throwing to Diggs and Thielen again

 

[sports_fan]

More of that please

 

[JIMGET]

who is calling these plays for minn?

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Oh cousins. That was awful. 

 

[oddsbodkins]

What in God's green earth? Worse than Winston. 

 

[SengerCJ]

uuuuuh doh..

 

[baymen]

ouch

 

[JIMGET]

Nice route diggs

 

[Insein]

What in the actual ####...

 

[Man In The Box]

Lol

 

[JIMGET]

Oh cousins. That was awful. 

that's on Diggs..garbage route

 

[Insein]

Oh wait that was Diggs fault.

 

[GrantK]

Oops

 

[The Frankman]

Oh Diggs why did you stop?

 

[Biabreakable]

defenses will scheme against soon enough and it will be ditched. nothing i have seen makes me think Hill can actually pass consistently at the nfl level.

What is puzzling is why the Saints would trade for Bridgewater if they planned to use Hill like this and further develop him?

If anything Teddy could use the reps more than Hill if they view him as QB of the future.

Hills does run the ball well and it works against some teams.

Meanwhile Cousins throws the pick 6 to Williams. Digs stops on his route for some reason.

 

[oddsbodkins]

That was Diggs. Ice him. Remember you have 19 to throw to kindly. 

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

As a Thielen/Diggs/Ingram owner I’m not that disappointed with that result. Favorable gameflow for all (except Ingram is a decoy/blocker today it seems) 

 

[Rodrigo Duterte]

Can somebody please answer these real quick?

1. Is Hill really the fastest guy on the team?

2. What color is he?
