**Vikings at Packers** (-3, 43.5) 1:00 (1 Viewer)

[Bri]

I like the Malik offense better. Even before the Vikes big lead it felt like they were trying too hard to get big plays whereas with Malik it was methodically moved down the field.
It's probably expected as those WRs were probably itching for his return but...

 

[Todem]

My goodness. The Sam Darnold saga is turning into some movie.

This is like the Jim Plunkett story.

 

[GroveDiesel]

Welp, guess I’m not getting much from Jacobs today at this point. Still hard for me to buy the Vikings as legit, but getting harder and harder to deny it.

 

[Funkley]

Unexpected

 

[Snoopy]

I had to turn it off

 

[Donnybrook]

Come on GB keep taking 30 seconds on every play.

 

[Bri]

Vikings are giving an enormous 15? yard cushion to WRs and cheating inside when it's an obvious run play. Love's gotta snap n throw it to the WR. That's just ridiculous

 

[Bri]

Come on GB keep taking 30 seconds on every play.

They need to calm down. The shifts seem to settle them a bit.

 

[Donnybrook]

Both are 50/50 could be called either way.

 

[Bri]

Love ran, got tackled, got up holding knee, and slight limp to huddle and the announcers glossed over it.

He looks fine. I guess it was a just me thing

 

[-OZ-]

My goodness. The Sam Darnold saga is turning into some movie.

This is like the Jim Plunkett story.

Darnold is proving the importance is coaching.

Apparently.

Jacobs is averaging over 5 ypc, but they keep slinging it with Love averaging less per attempt. Stupid.

 

[sho nuff]

Out punter is our best weapon.

 

[ShamrockPride]

My goodness. The Sam Darnold saga is turning into some movie.

This is like the Jim Plunkett story.

Darnold is proving the importance is coaching.

And having a quality organization around you that can draft and build an actual team to support you.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Can’t advance it !?

I’m not too embarrassed to say that I don’t know that rule or why it exists.

Why dammit?

 

[Donnybrook]

Terrible challenge

 

[Bri]

They needed that gift.

I'd have guessed Malik here but nope

 

[Donnybrook]

Can’t advance it !?

I’m not too embarrassed to say that I don’t know that rule or why it exists.

Why dammit?

Vikings were victims of this one year

 

[TheAristocrat]

15 yard temper tantrum.

 

[Dez]

I nearly benched Mahomes for Darnold not sure why I didn't pull trigger I mean Mahomes is as avg as it gets for Fantasy now.

For some reason I thought GB pass DEF was good my bad

 

[Dez]

1 hell of a catch by Reed there

 

[sho nuff]

Reed is really good

 

[Donnybrook]

Terrible challenge

I take it back he was calling timeout

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Reed is a stud.

 

[chad in Indy]

15 yard temper tantrum.

He is going again Jacobs in fantasy. Couldn't have a 1yd TD

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

Can’t advance it !?

I’m not too embarrassed to say that I don’t know that rule or why it exists.

Why dammit?

Vikings were victims of this one year

Why can’t you advance it?

ETA - I guess the holy roller play. A punt is essentially a fumble.

From da nterwebz:

In the NFL and NCAA, the punting team cannot advance a muffed punt on the same play because of rule restrictions. However, the punting team can recover the ball and continue the drive.

 

[Bri]

Wow
Turn your head CB!
Nice catch

 

[billmatic]

Reed bailing out his coach after his hissy fit almost cost his team 4 points

 

[Donnybrook]

I don't know I always thought it was a stupid rule. A muff is different than a fumble I guess no possession

 

[snogger]

The Packers getting a TD there is all on O'Connell. Previous drive 3rd and 1 at the 40.
Clock is running, if you run there either you get a 1st down, or Green Bay uses 1 of 2 timeouts and then you punt.
Instead you try to throw stopping the clock. With the way Aaron Jones was running why are you throwing there??

 

[Ghost Rider]

Dominating first half by the Vikings, who look legit.

But why is that punt returner even trying to field that punt in the last minute? Let them down it anywhere they want, kneel on it and go into half up 28-0. That brain dead muff gave the Packers life.

 

[sho nuff]

Reed bailing out his coach after his hissy fit almost cost his team 4 points

Coach has to keep his cool. But he had every reason to be pissed. He is calling TO and the one ref sees him then turns away from him. That is when he ran out on the field.

Again, still has to control himself better

 

[sho nuff]

Guessing Love plays the first drive and if they score they keep pushing. If not and they give a score up on the Vikings drive…we may see Willis.

 

[STEADYMOBBIN 22]

My goodness. The Sam Darnold saga is turning into some movie.

This is like the Jim Plunkett story.

Ive always liked him. Reminds me of Boomer, who ironically nobody likes.

 

[brun]

My goodness. The Sam Darnold saga is turning into some movie.

This is like the Jim Plunkett story.

I like him and think he got unlucky going to the Jets.
I only know what I see on Red Zone. He appears to get really good pass protection and also has JJ. I'm not sure it's as much a turnaround for him as it is an awesome situation.

According to Packer beat writer Matt Schneidman LaFleur tried calling timeout EIGHT times. LaFleur still has to keep his cool but come on

 

[sho nuff]

oh look another third down…zero pressure and wide open receiver

 

[sho nuff]

McKinney is really good too

 

[Donnybrook]

Dude didn't get possession until he was out of bounds

 

[sho nuff]

Ouch yeah. Close but didn’t have it.

Or not?

Thought at least one of the overturned receptions for GB could have remained and that should not have been. What do I know anymore in the NFL.

 

[sho nuff]

Among GBs problems today…dropped passes.

 

[encaitar]

Ouch yeah. Close but didn’t have it.

Or not?

Thought at least one of the overturned receptions for GB could have remained and that should not have been. What do I know anymore in the NFL.

I thought that was much clearer of an overturn than the Doubs catch they overturned. I'll never understand how or why refs make decisions.

 

[sho nuff]

Finally brought pressure

 

[Donnybrook]

That is the book on Wright. Punts it deep no matter the field position.

 

[Donnybrook]

They could have called PI on that.

 

[BespokeJort]

Are Wicks hands always this bad

 

[Donnybrook]

Vikings D is getting gassed. The up-tempo is working for GB.

 

[sho nuff]

Are Wicks hands always this bad

Nope. Really bad day (and first game too)
And he almost dropped that one

 

[The Kerminator]

Are Wicks hands always this bad

Nope. Really bad day (and first game too)
And he almost dropped that one

They've only played 4 games. So 2 out of 4 games. And the other two they didn't throw much with Willis at QB
