Donato scratched. Must be shopping Zucker so he has to play.

He's not disabled mentally or otherwise. He's just a guy and no one is bullying him either.

This game was... ...unfortunate.

Especially when you consider how fragile this teams psyche is all the time.

I know everyone here will be tuning in to watch the Pro Bowl on whatever channel it's on at whatever date and time it's being played. There is more incentive to watch now that the Viking's very own Xavier Rhodes will be playing!

It's weird. They were cruising along heading into a stretch of almost all home games and then fell right back into their old habits. And Blade is not the first (nor will he be the last) fan to correctly observe the teams lacks overall speed and grit. Ehhh...I see a lot of grit on this team to be ho...

I got over it quickly too. I've been watching the games in a vacuum. Trying not to apply anything about the season to what I am seeing. Making it a more enjoyable experience for sure. They do have the same problem they've always had. Too many moving parts have to be moving in the same direction. Loo...

They're also short on skating speed. Top Trade Bait listed on anyone's list is always the fastest skater on the team. Yet, while he was out the team was horrid. And now that he's back the team is playing well again. Who in the top 9 would you move to make room for Kaprizov? I don't know right now. ...

Dear Wes Walz, the Wild are not playing well tonight because it is Hockey Day Minnesota. I know that is the company line, but they are playing well because of their passing.

How can anyone be sure with this squad?

Yikes

So why isn’t Fox sports north showing the games with Minnesota Hockey day 1-17-20 ?
Hockey Day Minnesota is tomorrow 1-18-20
They have games being played today no tv coverage I wanted to se the alumni game

They don't want to spend the money to air games all day both days.

I think Whalen probably is following Geno's example. He is so spot on with this take.

Good find. I bet that is exactly it. Sadly it wasn't just the player who got disciplined that has the problem.

I remember someone getting shredded on this board for having the opinion that it was a bad idea to sign a player like Dubnyk to a long term deal.

Did they really have much of a choice? They still don't have a replacement for him. Kakk isn't ready yet.

I'm speechless. I've seen this happen at a much lower level before to what I considered a fantastic coach but I never thought I'd see this with this coach. Weird.

In a vacuum it was a fun game to watch.

wth?

Bears hire Bill Lazor for OC.

Guys, the Bears are getting worse with each staff hire. That'll be two easy wins

LOL

Winning in Chicago does not happen easily. No matter how much the Bears screw up.

They're better off hoping Suter and Parise can play at this level for the rest of their contracts then deal with that.

Is Rodgers better or worse than Eli Manning?

If Rodgers wins another Bowl, Rodgers. Otherwise I would take the two rings every day and twice on Sunday.

they had a terrible start to the season with a great deal of road games, now with a great deal of home games the same play production, they are a terrible team :censored: :chainsaw: :censored: Yes, but we got one fabulous month. And if they happen to stumble into the playoffs the season is a roarin...

It was a good run while it lasted.

The 1 month was fab. We get one every year lately but never in May or June.

Losing at home to an average GB team was the downfall of our season

There is no downfall to this season. This season is exactly the goal.

Mission Accomplished.

Unacceptable how? They made the playoffs. That's all that has ever mattered. That's the goal.
The play by Sherrels Scooby...,DUMB, Dumb, dumb

He tried to do too much. It happens. Vikes met their highest expectations. That's all that matters

SF plays better Zimmer football than Zimmer's.
Their defense is also at 100% for the first time since week 9ish. They weren't calling Terrence Newman to come for a workout this week.

I don't think it matters.

SF plays better Zimmer football than Zimmer's.

All runs.

Big difference is they get yards on running plays. Vikings do not

That's better

They had to work for that one....I guess....

Didn't look too tough to me.

Butter is back.

Hot knife thru butter.

Their recent play in any other context is a minor swoon. It's that troubling start that has cast a pall over this season. It doesn't help that Zucker is out. In a closely contested game like last night's, a player like him could be that one goal you need. Zucker is supposed to be traded. I guess th...

Any belief that this team gathered during the month they tore up the league is gone. They're back to square 1 again.

This recent home record is not getting the job done. That's 4 straight with no regulation wins.

Hamonic has freedom to cross check whoever he wants.

If the Vikings run the ball next week like this week, and the d line dominates, they will be in the game. Bet Mr Smug is down in the locker room slapping jock straps with the boys right now.

49ers have a monster dline. Going to take a great game plan.

You like that?

Man, I hope that puts the dagger in Kirk's anemic finishing ability.

Wow. No review.?

Lol. PI.

Come on man.

That was a nice throw.

He has a chance right here.

Vikes scored zero in the 4th.

Vintage Kirk.
That was 100% the correct decision. If your read isn't there, turtle and keep the clock moving.

He has given it back to the D every drive in the 4th. He can't get it done.

Vintage Kirk.

Going way to conservative.

Saints fans won't be happy with replay.

Maybe they can get it thrown out?

This offense is something.

Refs trying to screw the Vikes here.

Will Kirk give it back to the D again?

So NO scores here, and Cousins has the ball with a chance to win in the 4th and fizzles... I've seen this before.
This would be cliche Vikings' football. All day long to win the game and put it in the hands of your defense.

Happens every time.

Nice tackling.

Typical Cousins 4th qtr on road.

Cousins is under massive pressure even though they've had a running game.
Saints defensive line is one of the best in the league. They had 51 sacks this season, 3rd most in the league. And they were selling out hard that last drive to try to get a turnover.

Take advantage of the sell out?

Cousins is under massive pressure even though they've had a running game.

Wow this offense is something.

Rhodes makes a play.

Offense blows it again.

The door is open.

With a duct-taped secondary I am pleased the Vikings only gave up one TD in the first half, especially considering the early turnover. Would have been pleased with a tie, having the lead is nice bonus. I suspect (hope??) the Vikes running game is wearing down the saints' defense. That's the hope.

They missed? You're kidding.

And then they blow it.

Finally.

Have to score a TD here. Have to.

Wind the clock down please.
