Love Diggs. Love.

As long as he keeps his helmet on

His mocking that after the TD was funny

Post by **team22tank** » Sun Oct 13 12:58 pm

Wow props to the ref for not calling PI on the long ball.

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 12:59 pm

Mike Hughes is really really good, BTW

I fully expected to see one thrown there and it would have been a brutal call.

Diggs again!!!

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 1:01 pm

Holy crap Cousins just said FU to everyone

Post by **ScoobyDoo** » Sun Oct 13 1:01 pm

Diggs is wowza.

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 1:01 pm

That was a perfectly designed play again and Diggs made a great play on a great throw.

Wow.

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 1:02 pm

As did Diggs BTW

Post by **Border Gopher** » Sun Oct 13 1:02 pm

Who is #8 on the Vikings? I thought that was Cousins' number.

Post by **bearpaw28** » Sun Oct 13 1:02 pm

Wow was Diggs wide open, and Captain Kirk got him the ball

Replay showed Thielen was wide the F open too

The Eagles had 4 guys watching Rudolph on that play

I think everyone on the Eagles saw the play action and forgot to try to cover.

Elflein with the "LOOKOUT" block and gets Cousins sacked.

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 1:12 pm

Elflein just got walked around. Ugly

Post by **bearpaw28** » Sun Oct 13 1:13 pm

OMG Elflien, I’ve seen Matadors make a better effort. And who the hell was Bradbury blocking.

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 1:25 pm

Diggs forgot to use his hands to catch that one. Bounces off his helmet straight in the air. And of course Andrew sendejo has it fall in his lap for the INT

Post by **bearpaw28** » Sun Oct 13 1:25 pm

That was on Diggs, crap

Post by **Bigbeer** » Sun Oct 13 1:26 pm

Ouch Diggs....not good

Post by **team22tank** » Sun Oct 13 1:30 pm

Wow for all the ticky tac holdings that get called in the trenches that was an amazing miss there on Ev Griff.

Post by **ScoobyDoo** » Sun Oct 13 1:31 pm

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 1:31 pm

Yeah that was a bad miss. I mean he was damned near choking him.

And didnt Philly learn from Nebraska...stupid fakes are stupid

Post by **bearpaw28** » Sun Oct 13 1:32 pm

I can’t stand Doug Peterson and that visor he wears (even when it’s 10 below). Of course, he is a former Packer bench warmer, there’s that

And BTW, nice fake FG Doug

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 1:40 pm

Such a weird spot to fake it. Any points and you go into the half excited because the 2nd quarter you played much better...instead you call that play and bail out Diggs.

I mean I like guys being aggressive but that was not the spot for it.

Post by **Snowcool08** » Sun Oct 13 1:43 pm

Even if they convert the fake, the FG unit is out on the field with the clock running. You have to get the offense out there and run a play in 10 seconds. Not going to happen.

Post by **Bigbeer** » Sun Oct 13 1:44 pm

They should have taken the points gifted to them by Diggs

Exactly. The play would have worked for nothing...

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 1:52 pm

Speaking of working for nothing...Vikings D did zilch on that drive.

Post by **Snowcool08** » Sun Oct 13 1:56 pm

Have they not learned to not put Barr in coverage one on one with a RB?

He ran into a pick play there.

Post by **team22tank** » Sun Oct 13 2:00 pm

Refs got the call at halftime to make the game unbearable.

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 2:01 pm

Diggs dropped another ball that hit him right in the hands.

What a terrible turn here. Philly goes down and scores and the Vikings take a hold and block in the back.

This game will be tied up soon.

Yeah. And the hold was obvious (he actually did it again another play with no call) so it isnt even like it was a make up call for the rather weak PI flag. (for this game)

Vikes D has been struggling since Philly realized Wentz is only good when the pocket is moved. Zim better figure something out...

I’m aware that he was picked. Doesn’t change the fact that he didn’t avoid it and was still going to be late regardless.

LBs are going to cover RBs no way around it.

Post by **bearpaw28** » Sun Oct 13 2:13 pm

Nice...way to go Cousins!

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 2:15 pm

That Diggs play reminded me of Freshmen Football...just make a play up and pretend to throw it to fake out the D.

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 2:16 pm

Diggs gets the Hatty!

Post by **Greyeagle** » Sun Oct 13 2:16 pm

THAT was one hell of an answer drive!
THAT was one spectacular catch!

Post by **ScoobyDoo** » Sun Oct 13 2:17 pm

What a grab.

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 2:19 pm

That was Carter-esque...thing of beauty from Diggs

Even though the plays arent always working I love the playcalling today. They are doing everything they can to keep the Eagles off balance. Cousins being able to work at the line a bit is smart too. As the announcers said, the play to Thielen for the 8 yard gain was a running play that Cousins just decided to throw to Adam cause the CB was 8 yards off. For the first time all year Stefanski seems to trust Cousins and Cousins trusts his line and WRs.

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 2:19 pm

Perfect throw and catch there. Big answer to get a TD there.

Let's turn the Eagles over here and dagger them.

Post by **frozen4champs** » Sun Oct 13 2:21 pm

So do the Vikings fans love Cousins and Diggs again, or they week to week?

I always love Diggs.

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 2:27 pm

My feelings are the same. If Diggs doesnt cause problems I have no issue with him. If he pouts and acts like a child I will rip him for it.

I didnt like Cousins in college, didnt like him in Washington and only really "like" him now cause he is a Viking. I think he is a fine QB but not a franchise guy. I dont want him cut, dont want him benched, just want him to play well enough to win. That will always be my opinion. Today though he has been pretty dang awesome.

Post by **Handyman** » Sun Oct 13 2:31 pm

Kendricks damned near murdered the D2 QB on that play. Crowd noise is a killer right now

They definitely didn't count to "One-Thousand-Four" before rushing the passer.

Yeah he and Mackenzie yelled "BLITZ!!!" and met at the QB

Post by **ScoobyDoo** » Sun Oct 13 2:39 pm

Hate the Eagles so much. Thanks, Vikings.

Post by **Greyeagle** » Sun Oct 13 2:39 pm

Love it, now we're Cooking!

Little late 2nd quarter, early 3rd quarter lapse then the O & D both wakeup and drop the hammer!

Taking care of business at home. Gotta win the next two because it's a ROUGH stretch after that.

This fumble should stand.

D2 QB should go back to NDSU

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 2:57 pm

Really nice play by Mack Alexander there!

Treadwell

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 3:00 pm

Look at Megaquon!!!

Post by **Greyeagle** » Sun Oct 13 3:00 pm

Wait....what...WHO just did that?

Post by **bearpaw28** » Sun Oct 13 3:02 pm

Treadwell with the ultimate FU catch on 4th down up 18!

Post by **Beauner** » Sun Oct 13 3:04 pm

Throw a TD to Treadwell on 3rd and 12 and give the ball to the Eagles LB who ripped Cousins, his former teammate.

I'd die laughing.

Post by **bearpaw28** » Sun Oct 13 3:24 pm

Cousins BEST GAME...as a Viking...by far! 6-2 actually looks do-able now

Post by **The Rube** » Sun Oct 13 5:35 pm

The refs did some home-cookin' today. Very surprised at some of the calls and non-calls.
How can Wentz avoid being touched?! Jesus, that guy is elusive. Just out of reach every play.
Cousins was being knocked around, but just a second too late; nice job of getting rid of the ball today.

And the All Apologies Tour continues. Theilen's week was last week, this week it was Diggs. Is Rudy next?

Post by **ScoobyDoo** » Sun Oct 13 5:40 pm

Refs did home cooking? No. No. Not even close.

Post by **The Rube** » Sun Oct 13 5:54 pm

The Ertz non-call and then following it up with a PI against the Eagles? That was the most obvious one.

Now, not saying the refs cost the Eagles the game; MN outplayed them for most of the game (minus a drive or two). But, MN got more benefit from the refs than the Eagles did, no question. The key to this game was the injuries. MN had that opening, and took FULL advantage of it.

Post by **ScoobyDoo** » Sun Oct 13 5:55 pm

Good Lord what a bunch of bs.
