This is a great game so far. Nice drive here by the Vikes. Only down 10-7. They should at least tie it up, could go up 14-10?

Yeah I am trying to go to bed since I have a bad cold but I am having trouble tearing myself away from this game.

I'll second that! :)

Thanks guys. It's halftime; so I am taking a quick break from the TNF broadcast. I told a guy selling newspapers this morning that we were going to get annihilated tonight, as our defense is decimated. Our 3 best defensive players are out (Linval Joseph, Anthony Barr,  and Harrison Smith). All of our safeties were injured. One of the starting safeties tonight, Anthony Harris, rookie from Virginia,  has been on the practice squad the whole year. He was promoted this Monday or Tuesday.  I am pleased to see that the Vike are keeping the game close. They could still get killed the second half but I am more hopeful than I have been all week. 

Enjoy the second half. :)

Nice 1st Half. 10-10. Go Vikes!

The Cards are going to the SB this year, I'm totally bandwagonning it up for AZ to knock the Panthers out 

 

 

I actually agree with you. I have a funny feeling Arizona is going to the SB. Palmer has to stay healthy though, so far he has. I am just not sold on Carolina. My pick was GB before the season but GB isn't going to get a Bye so if you ask me today I would say Arizona.

I just love that Cardinals team. They remind me of the 2009 Saints. People nitpick their defense and often slap the "Overrated" tag on them, but they did the same thing to the Saints. They play aggressive like we used to. 

That team is hungry for success, and if they win 1 more game, they'll reach first time ever, 12 wins. They have to win the SB this year. It would be great seeing a team that's never won anything finally win it.

Tough loss for the Vikes, but nothing they should hang their head about. They played a very good Cardinals team close. I definitely think they could end up beating Green Bay and taking the NFC North. 

That is going to be an interesting game when the Vikes take on GB. Vikes showed me a lot tonight even in defeat. Hey your team and mine have some huge games coming up. This will be fun!

They have a nice shot at winning it all. Arians is a Great Coach too.

The division is most likely over given GB plays Dallas at home this weekend which should be a win and one game lead and they still have the Vikes in GB before season's end. The way things are projecting the Vikes would be the 6th seed and have to go to GB for the WC round. That kind of stinks but who knows maybe they pull the upset.

Norv Turner was maddening last night. No reason to call that reverse from over mid-field when the game was 10-10. What a huge momentum shift. Sometimes he just gets too cute. Just hand the ball to AP!

I like them too. Palmer, Fitz, Arians. Just a great bunch of guys. They are a lot of fun to watch. I hope they keep winning and get the 2 seed as that should lock them up vs the Panthers with a trip to the SB on the line.

No bias there from defeating New Orleans there recently eh Bogie? Just kidding buddy! Your offense still put up 1 heck of a slug fest vs Carolina man. It's just not the Saints year pal. Just like it's not really INDY's either.

    • Ignoring anything to do with accuracy, level of play, etc., just based on his injury history through 8 games, it's highly unlikely he will be our QB in a few years.  It's a catch 22 with him.  If you don't utilize his legs, it will be very difficult to win with him.  If you do utilize his legs, it will be very difficult to keep him on the field.  I've come to the conclusion that his size is not necessarily a benefit.  The collisions are harder.  He goes to the ground harder.  You don't see some of the gentle drops and rolls you see with Lamar Jackson.     The fact that he's also tied to a front office that might be counting their days doesn't help either.  
    • Id say avoid drafting or taking players from your team that you’re a fan of. I’m an avid fantasy guy and also a sports bettor. I literally will avoid taking any Colts players In fantasy and also during the week in fantasy football I avoid taking the props of the players I’m playing against. I never want to wish bad on anyone so for that very reason I avoid those guys. For me personally it has helped tremendously, I can still enjoy the game without bias. 
    • I will just say this about the comparisons between Luck and AR.  And even Manning.   First, as far as overall talent?  I think AR has more talent than Andrew.  And I say that as the biggest Luck fan that there is.  I loved that guy.  But he always reminded me of a Manning wannabe.  Someone who had more pure talent.  Who was very smart.  But I never ever got the feeling that he wanted to win and put in the hours that Manning did.  And I think that was proven when he retired so early.  Manning was like an AI robot who studied 23 hours a day.  Just a huge will to win.    But what Luck had was pain tolerance, drive and overall ability due to his teaching since he was a kid...and his will to do what is right for the team.    IMO that was 100% MORE than AR's is right now.  Not even close.    If only you could clone a combo between Manning and his smarts, Luck and his pain tolerance, and AR and his pure athletic ability.    I am sorry but unless AR is the unluckiest person in the history of the NFL, NO ONE gets hurt this much.  He is a wreck.  Heck I remember in his first pre season game last year he ran out of bounds and started to limp.  Literally his very first hit ever.  Right then I said to myself "uh oh".  And then he has not finished what......4 of his all time starts?  Out of 8?  I mean....that is not normal QB behavior.  He seems to get hurt on almost every hit he takes.    Make that make sense.    It is very VERY odd to say the least.   I want AR to do well because he seems like a good guy and he has all the talent in the world  But after this last game and his words after? For lack of a better word I don't think he has any ability at all to do 2 things.     One....protect himself.   Two.....take a hit and feel pain without it being the end of the world.  He seems to have no pain tolerance whatsoever.  Which is fine.  Just don't be an NFL Qb as a result. 
    • I'm not creating anything.  Till AR can stay on the field it's Flacco that has to be tough. 
    • I understand that but till AR shows he can stay on the field, Flacco has to be the man. It's that simple.
