Im beginning to face the repercussions of playing so much of The Wiggles catalog on the way to and from daycare each day. My spotify algorithm is in tatters.
It's a good thing he did this so that a team from a different conference lost draft capital while a team from his own conference gained some https://t.co/DNSgMG1bOm
Nick Mullens is just as sloppy with the ball as Dobbs.
No way Hall is just as sloppy. We can’t possibly roster the 3 most careless people with the ball in the NFL.
Probably the worst part about the “controversy” last night is Patrick Mahomes seemed to legitimately expect that the officials would pick up a flag that was thrown immediately at the snap because the play ended up looking really cool. The flag was on the ground from the start.
Alright at this point let's both agree to leave our defenses on the field against each other for the rest of the game and let them take turns playing offense.

Vikings win after Saints failed Hail Mary. Chewing clock is understandable to a point but at what point do you just put the game away and stop giving them chances? Defense was tremendous here and the offense was zero help.
𝐕𝐢𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐮𝐩 𝟏𝟕-𝟏𝟓 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐃𝐞𝐧𝐯𝐞𝐫 (𝟏𝟎:𝟑𝟕 𝐥𝐞𝐟𝐭)

• Ball is now down at the 12 yard line
𝟏𝐬𝐭 — 𝐌𝐚𝐭𝐭𝐢𝐬𝐨𝐧 𝐫𝐮𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐧𝐨 𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧

𝟑𝐫𝐝 — 𝐃𝐨𝐛𝐛𝐬 𝐢𝐧𝐜𝐨𝐦𝐩𝐥𝐞𝐭𝐞 𝐩𝐚𝐬𝐬
𝟒𝐭𝐡 — 𝐅𝐢𝐞𝐥𝐝 𝐆𝐨𝐚𝐥
Vikings settle for a FG from the 12 yard line and go up 20-15 with 3:17 left. Could’ve been more aggressive here and played for a TD to make it a 2 possession game. Denver scores a TD on the next drive and wins the game.
𝐕𝐢𝐤𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬 𝐮𝐩 𝟏𝟎-𝟗 𝐚𝐠𝐚𝐢𝐧𝐬𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐢𝐜𝐚𝐠𝐨 (𝟑:𝟐𝟕 𝐥𝐞𝐟𝐭)
— Mattison up the middle for no gain
— Mattison to the right for 1 yard
— Dobbs pass to Powell for -1 yards
— Punt with 2:35 left
Bears kick a field goal on the next drive and win the game. Could’ve been more aggressive here to seal the game with first downs.
Each post-game press conference O’Connell talked about finding a balance between clock management and putting the game away but each week calls a conservative game and doesn’t put the game away. Beyond frustrating to watch and listen to week after week. O’Connell is better than this. The Vikings are better than this.
You get that fumble from Fields and you've got all the momentum.
-Run into the middle of the line.
-Run into the middle of the line.
-Pass nine yards short of the sticks.
-Punt
Unacceptable.
Plays like that 4th down is why people accuse the Chiefs of getting preferential treatment
Take your pick of defensive holding or DPI (should've been DPI) & then the unsportsmanlike
They pick up the flag for what was seen correctly on the field & ref ignores the unsportsmanlike
When all 8 #Vikings OL that made the final 53 were on the team in 2022, which is great for continuity, but you also remember the noises Kirk made in "Quarterback" after getting smacked in the ribs for 156th time
Have you heard the story of the 09' NFC Championship game?! It's not a story the NFL would tell you. It's a Saints legend. Bounty Gate
Here's the highlights the NFL won't show you.
days of the week mean very little to me. but they mean everything. to the human. for example. today is a pretty okay day of the week. and so are the next few. but after that. terrible. you would think the world is ending. then we slowly get okay again
