**TNF on Prime - Vikings at Chargers**(-3.5, 44.5) 8:15 (1 Viewer)

Jesus, what a week to be facing Eboigbe.

Damn. I asked Tau about him in a DT premium league and he told me not much of a pass rush or something like that. lol.

Yeah but he’s going against a turtle who crawls into his shell repeatedly. He was in the fetal position when Eboigbe touched him gently on the shoulder.

Very true. I think it’s likely fluky. Funny though. I’m not going to re-post it and be a jerk, but the convo we had about him is funny right now.

 

[Donnybrook]

Vikings look like they will eke out 6 wins this year. Probably draft a CB with the 8th overall pick.

 

[Insein]

No need to stop. Just keep pounding.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

Cashman & Greenard putting up a bonanza on my home league bench.

 

[fatness]

All the first half passing has loosened up the running game for the Chargers.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

With Alt back, the Chargers might well be the most dangerous offense in the NFL.
Loaded with weapons, a QB who can run, and a rock solid defense… we might be watching the AFC’s representative in the SB.

 

[renesauz]

where the heck is Quentin Johnston at? He's disappeared with the emergence of GAdsden

 

[fatness]

Chargers with 20 first downs already.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

It feels like Harbaugh just changed his offense midseason.

 

[Terpman22]

Maybe Jalen Hurts didn't figure it out last week. Maybe the Vikings D is becoming a problem.

Justin Herbert just has to get a perfect passer rating then…(oh wait)

 

[zed2283]

Looks like this Jones/Mason combo is going to work out.

 

[travdogg]

Not really all that surprised with the Vikings offense in this one, Vikings D has been shocking to me. Big holes, wide open guys, little pass rush.

Oh dear Crikey. You know what? Guy is right 95% of the time about the Chargers. Probably that awful line O’Connell won’t put McCarthy.

Well, that had been true to this point.

This is the best pass rush game of Eboigbe's career, by far.

Nah, dude. I actually think he should enjoy the sacks now. lol. I trust your judgment and it’s either a fluke or he developed a game, in which case we both win because I like seeing the Chargers on offense.

 

[irish eyes]

And the Eagles almost lost to this team, wow.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

2016 was a pretty good draft actually. Wentz went 1.2, he had a moment after that, and then.

 

[renesauz]

Wentz is getting pummeled

Lucky me, either way.

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Surely the Vikes know they need to complete a deep pass soon to stay in this thing. Shirley.

 

[fatness]

Vikings take so long to get play calls in

 

[travdogg]

Wentz is getting pummeled

Most of its his fault too, dude just refuses to checkdown.

 

[Desert_Power]

Wentz is the only QB that KOC can't work on

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

2016 was a pretty good draft actually. Wentz went 1.2, he had a moment after that, and then.

Early on Wentz looked like Favre II (without the whole stealing from charity thing).

He was a beast in the pocket, shugged off would-be sacks, and pulled off unbelievable throws under duress.

Now he’s a turd in the punchbowl.

 

[irish eyes]

Wentz wincing after every single play. Seriously, why is he still in there. It's painful to watch.

 

[Donnybrook]

It would be a good night to give Brosmer some reps. It not like Wentz is moving the ball.

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

What timing:

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports that the Vikings “hope” QB J.J. McCarthy (ankle) is “ready” to play in Week 9 against the Lions.
Rapoport adds that if fill-in starting QB Carson Wentz “throws for 400 yards” tonight against the Chargers, “that will be taken into consideration” when deciding which player starts in Week 9. Vikings head coach Kevin O’Connell is “not going to put McCarthy out there until he can be successful,” though Rapoport adds that McCarthy is “close” to returning. McCarthy has been sidelined by a high-ankle sprain since Week 2.

 

[ShamrockPride]

#### was that, Herb

 

[Terpman22]

PICK

WE GOT A BALL GAME NOW

 

[travdogg]

That 3rd down play, Wentz had both Hockenson and Jones (or Mason, I didn't see before the play) for 5-6 yards and just didn't take it. Sure they were short of the 1st, but maybe one of them breaks a tackle. Its a lot more likely than Wentz breaking 3 tackles and running for it.

 

[Penguin]

#### was that, Herb

Tipped

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

Fire it up, Wenzzie. Lo these many years from now they’ll ask what was the play that turned the tide.

 

[fatness]

Time for Jefferson.

 

[Terpman22]

Lmaooooo the back hand incompletion while levitating

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

What in the world was that Carson?

 

[ShamrockPride]

Why the refs let that run? It was clearly never a fumble.

 

[renesauz]

not sure why they let that go....if not down was clearly a pass

 

[travdogg]

Time for Jefferson.

Watch it be Thielen or Nailor

 

[Runkle]

not sure why they let that go....if not down was clearly a pass

Why stop it? Let it play out, review of a turnover is automatic

 

[ShamrockPride]

Vikings can't win this with Wentz taking at least a sack per drive.

Gotta pull him.

 

[IHEARTFF]

Sweet plays

 

[Hot Sauce Guy]

jfc Wentz

 

[irish eyes]

Wow, just wow on the play calling.

 

[travdogg]

Missed a wide open Nailor for a possible TD there.

 

[Donnybrook]

It like they are going to settle for the FG.

 

[Terpman22]

With the FG they cut the 3 score game to a 3 score game.

 

[Smack Tripper]

WTF is KOC doing kicking?

 

[SaintsInDome2006]

That makes no sense mathematically, right?

 

[travdogg]

WTF is KOC doing kicking?

 

[fatness]

Time for Jefferson.

Watch it be Thielen or Nailor

Or that hated FG guy.
