Cobb!
Football is becoming unwatchable with a goddam flag in every play....you watch a play and then look in the corner of the tv for the yellow “flag” symbol.
FU Goodell for killing the golden goose.
28-24 Vikings with 10:00 remaining.
Under 7:00 remaining
Elliot and the O-line run blocking look terrible.
Thanks, Cowboys.
I hope Michael Irvin is choking on his coke. He’s been pimping this team as having the “heart of a champion” on First Take. Stood up two weeks ago, and I thought he was going to go Oj on Stephen A Smith.
Cowboys are total spares. Worthless. Jerruh has run this franchise into the ground.
Red Jesus, your contract is running out.
That dude gave up a punt return touchdown. Wide open field to the left with 6 blockers.
Fair catch instead. Smart football awareness.
MIN looks best built for post season if 3rd cousins doesn't regress to the mean. In the north.
Kirkie looked very good tonight. He keeps playing like this and the Vikes will take the division race right to the wire. The hiring of Gary Kubiak as OC is paying dividends.

Amen.
I don't mind a call when it's something blatant. But sometimes they throw the flag for such weak type things it's ridiculous. The lack of consistency is the most frustrating thing.
Leave it to the Cowboys to lose to the vikings! It's probably why Dallas is my second least favorite team.
Saul Goodman.....Packers Keep taking care of business - it won't matter what the Vikings do
Dallas was moving the ball, at will, with their passing game on that second to last drive. Why did they run the ball, at all? Both run plays got stuffed and caused them to turn over the ball on downs. A slant to either Cobb or Cooper going to the end zone, or a pass to Witten there ,could have sealed the victory for the cowpokes.

Near the end of the game I thought the cowboys ran because they assumed they were gonna get the TD and didn’t want to leave the Vikings munch time on the clock.
kirk isn’t Rodgers.
I think the Cowboys are one of the more disappointing teams in the NFL. It's pretty clear their O-Line isn't the elite unit it was just a few short years ago. I think they've got a talented defense, but just watching them get worked over by the Jets a few weeks back and the Vikings last night, they don't seem to be playing to their talent.
I would have liked to have seen the Cowboys win last night and frankly win the East. If the Packers are facing someone in the playoffs, I'd rather see the Cowboys than the Eagles. The Pack couldn't beat the Eagles when they had 4 CBs missing. I don't think it will get any easier if some of those guys are healthy come playoff time. I actually hope the Cowboys hold the Eagles off, but I would put my money on the Eagles to win that division.
Cowboys coaches screaming fair catch it with a 20 yard cushion and blockers all the way to the house.

I’m not afraid of the Cowboys or Eagles
One of them will win the division and likely be the 4 seed hosting the 5 seed.
I don’t see SF falling off anytime soon and the Seahawks probably have one of the WC spots locked up. With the Vikings win I think they will have the other WC spot locked up assuming the Packers don’t stumble and MN wins the division.
With New Orleans losing it opens the door for a team like GB because the Saints now have 2 conference losses. The goal for GB is to get that first round bye and host a playoff game. A game or two could decide it that happens or they are a wild card team that has to travel week one.

Interesting proclamation before the SF/Sea game tonight. It's going to be a fun one.
For the Packers, their next 3, they need to win at least 2 of them (hopefully all 3!) vs. Niners, Redskins, Giants
Lotta football to play yet.
Rooting for the Seahawks tonight.
Only other time was against the Vikings.
Feel dirty.
Feel really confident, too, that they're gonna punch the Niners in the mouth and expose them as a fraud with a great DL and TE but not much else.
Kittle is doubtful tonight -- don't think he's going but they got their 2 tackles back (Staley & McGlinchey) plus Jusczyk

If they can't beat the Giants and the Redskins, they don't deserve to advance very far in the playoffs. They will both be playing rookie QBs. Jones is capable of putting up big yardage numbers, but you'd think you'd be able to generate turnovers off of him. The Packers should be 10-3 with the three NFC North teams lined up for the final 3. The Lions may be done by the final game and they aren't going to play Stafford with a bad back if it doesn't mean anything. They also should beat Trubisky and the Bears at home.
I'd still predict a loss at SF, but maybe MLF learned something about preparing for West Coast trips from the LAC debacle.
Predictions
@SF - Loss (8-3)
@NYGiants - Win (9-3)
vs. Redskins - Win (10-3)
vs. Bears - Win (11-3)
@Minnesota (Toss-up)
vs. Lions Win (12-4 or 13-3)
Minnesota has these games - predictions are as follows:
vs. Denver - Win 8-3
@Seattle - Loss 8-4
vs. Lions - Win 9-4
@LAC - Win 10-4 (I think the Vikings will take care of business out there)
vs. Packers - Tossup
vs. Bears - Win (12-4 or 11-5)
If the Packers beat the Lions and Bears and lose to the Vikings they'll be 5-1 in the division. Even then, the best the Vikings can do is go 4-2 in the division (they've already lost to the Bears). So, if the Packers go 4-2 including 2 of 3 from the Vikings, Bears, and Lions, the Vikings would have to go 6-0 to win the division.

Should be a great game.
#1 D in yards allowed (San Fran) vs the #5 O in yards gained (Seattle).
#6 O in yards gained (San Fran) vs the #25 D in yards allowed.
Wish everybody was healthy so we could get a good gauge on who they are, but I don’t think a loss for either team will be too damning unless it’s a blowout.

Also rooting for the Seahawks (and will be in 3 weeks when they host the Queens on MNF) and also feel weird about it.
That said, Seattle has had a horseshoe up its derriere all year. They have OT and 1 point wins at home agains the hapless Bucs and winless Bengals, respectively, were very lucky to beat the Rams at home, caught Pitt in a close one in the game Roethlisberger went down for the season, got thoroughly outplayed by Cleveland and won, etc.
They were also handled surprisingly easily by New Orleans and Baltimore (both good teams) at home in Seattle.
Wilson has been great and I hope he keeps its up tonight and in the final game of the season at home against SF and again against the Queens but I see SF going to 9-0 fairly easily tonight unfortunately.
These are the type of games that Seattle usually finds a way to win. However, several Hawks wins this year could have easily gone the other way and SF will want to prove on national TV they are for real.
Thinking Niners jump out to a big lead and Saint Wilson will stage a monster comeback (along with some nonsense from the officials) and Niners close them out to win by 3 or 4. Maybe like 27-24 or 24-20.

Well I saw this game quite clearly.
Vikings Suck 2.0
Just trying to get this thread back on track.
Vikings going completely unnoticed.
VIKINGS SUCK!! 😂
There's so much purple suckiness going on that we could afford to not talk about the vikings, for a bit, on a thread made just for them. Nothing gets under the skin of viking fans more than to be unnoticed by others. We understand the game and know that the vikings have sucked and will suck forever!

This.
Yes. Reminds me of a few weeks ago when GB put up 40+ on Oakland. I was talking to my brother in law from MN and he saw a bunch of highlights from GB game and goes “You know the Vikings scored 40+ today too, but no one would ever know it.”
