Should be a good game

It's much easier to catch the ball when it isn't thrown at your feet, or short.
@D J posted:Gibbs has that extra gear. TD Lions.
He's got blazing speed, but he was untouched on a TD run from the 15. You and I would have gained 6-8 yards on that before we got hit.

Have you seen some of the catches Jefferson has made this year?
And the Lions lose the Superbowl. Perfect for me. Superbowl losers really drop off the following year. See S.F.

He could have space walked through a void that large.

Jared Verse may be the defensive rookie of the year at LB, but their pass rush is Packers-esque.
and let’s talk QB’s eh?? Queen QB is not that good looking….really…..he’s a good QB, this game??? it’s tricking him out, was #12 back in the day??? Did he get screwed in big games and crack??? Am I wrong??
The “meathead” can coach and lead just a little bit.
Darnold is shell shocked.
Refs bail out the vikings with a holding call on Detroit.
Kevin O'Connell is now calling plays to try to keep Darnold's confidence up for next week rather than trying to call plays to win tonight's game. Down 14 and calling dump downs on the first two plays when you have Justin Jefferson, Addison, and Hockenson.
Anzalone had been getting away with quite a bit of holding, they finally called him on one.

YES, AND THEY’VE BEEN ABSOLUTELY AMAZING…….amazing. Not tonight, yet anyway…..a gawd receiver. Now, Jefferson to Green Bay??? OHMYGAWD.
That was a really nice break up by Branch. I wonder where that pick came from....

You may want to rethink this.

Probably should not mention it here, but I think Jameson Williams, Justin Jefferson, Jordan Addison, and TJ Hockenson were all drafted in round 1.
And I may be mistaken but the Eagles spent a 1st round pick on DeVonta Smith and traded a 1st for AJ Brown.
Just weird, weird allocation of resources.

Vikings fall apart when they fall behind.
(we don't know anything about that)

Packers had 44 sacks this year. The Rams had 36.
..... And another team that beats Green Bay loses the following week. Doesn't happen every time but it happens a lot!!
Obviously I don’t admire the Vikings, but I do admire their defensive edge rushers. They are so much more versatile and agile than our one trick ponies like Gary and Van Ness. Maybe Van Ness can watch some films of Van Ginkel in the offseason and learn a trick or 2? Probably not, but I can dream.

You mean drafting one WR or RB in the first round since 1988 is unusual?

There is a reason that Van Ness couldn't even start for Iowa when he was a 3rd year sophomore.
