Can't Beat Houston at Home, Beat Minn on the Road?

Your guess is as good as mine. Looks like we took advantage of a bad Vikings O-Line. As far as our O-Line looking good against a top 5 Vikings D-Line, I don't know how they did it. Luck had some quicker throws and Gore ran for 100. % is confusing.....

Sorry they could of beat Houston if they would of played small ball instead of the 5 and 7 step drop for a 20 or 30 yard pass to TY and Dorsett. In this game they used Gore and their TE to set up the long throws. If they would of done this last week as many on the forum was predicting they would of done and played ball control they could of won that game against Houston.

These kind of performances happen all the time and every week.  Not just to our team but to all of the teams. That's why a team that has been up and down all year can get hot at the end and win it all.  I don't think the answer as to why it happens  is as black and white as some people would like to think it is.

Houston has 10 straight division wins, maybe 11, they clearly know how to beat us , and Tenn and Jax like a drum . You have to give them credit for that. 

You're giving Houston a little too much credit. They couldn't even beat the Hasselbeck lead Colts at home and luckily beat us this year at their house.

    • When did you last attend a game?   Polian never tried to do anything with second hand ticket sales 
    • Pretty sure Leonard was an all pro 4 times.  Defense rookie of year..  no one cares about your averages.   You are wrong most of the time.   I wish I could give you an "aggressive laugh emoji"
    • I don't really care where a player is picked, because if he's starting he's likely been deemed to be the best we have. That in itself CAN of course be pretty unfortunate and that's where it starts to be a Ballard problem.   To the OP: Cross, Speed and Franklin have all been questioned because of their questionable coverage abilities - especially Speed and Franklin. What gets brought up in the OP completely misses the point. Speed and Franklin have also been called out because too many of their tackles seem be be made 5+ yards downfield. I don't see anything disproving that here either.
    • Its come to my attention that some members just can't take anybody second-guessing the Colts.   I probably fit in the nonsupport of Ballard group, but I've never targeted the players mentioned because I thought they were decent picks at the spot they were taken.  If you average out the draft spot of those players, I'd say they average to about pick 90...mid to late 3rd round.   My target was the lack of attention in picking impact players with first round picks, identifying them in college.  One All Pro in 8 drafts, plus capital from trade downs.  And that one All Pro is/was a G.  Doesn't seem like our recent pick #4 is headed there either, but its very early.
    • No one really said anything about Rainman. People were screaming for him to start over Pryor after week 2.   Jones had 1 good game with 2 INTs but he’s still a liability in man, and tends to always give up 1-2 big catches a game and a penalty. He’s fine as a number 3 corner.   Lot of people also wanted Cross, just at SS instead of FS which is why he has had success. I’ve always thought he was better than Thomas.   Fries has been a surprise and this is easily the best we’ve seen from Pierce. Ryan and Minshew definitely limited him.
