[quote=FRPLG;1039222]SS...they're not allowed to do games on Friday correct? As part of their their antitrust exemption.[/quote]

The NFL in the past has basically said that High School football feeds College and College football feeds the NFL so they avoid doing Friday night and Saturday games (Until College football is basically over) so the pipeline keeps churning out the players. Dont see why the exemption would prohibit Friday nights but I guess anything is possible.

Maybe that was the intent but the results have been in for weeks. Enough.

Listening to a cd i bought in new mexico by a group called Pahuakume. Lots of indian drums, etc.
Getting pumped for a good ole skins scalping of the Vikes. Its blowout time folks.

[quote=GTripp0012;1039213]For what it's worth, Morgan used to be pretty effective on returns with the 49ers. So he has a history. Before the broken leg.

You may be wondering what that has to do with the current decision to keep him returning kicks...and that would require a much more thorough investigation of how/why decisions are made in this organization.

[quote=Chico23231;1039142]agree. i hate Thursday night football. bad idea, always has been. Move it to friday night.[/quote]

I'm not a big fan of it either, but that's because I'm at work until 6:30, and then it will take me an hour to get home and change, and then I'm going to be at a sports bar all night with my friends, and then I have to go back to work another 11 1/2 hours tomorrow too. So yeah the timing's not that great, but I'll survive somehow. A win would definitely help. And honestly, if there's one game that I feel we have a chance at blowing out a team in, it would be this one. I'm really hoping we don't have a nail biter at the end.

What a hatter. I love some Mayock. Probably more than I do Gruden and I like him as well.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Pretty simple formula. If we run the ball and stick to it, we win the game. Vikings are there for the taking with all their injuries. But I expect a close game.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Yeah it will probably be close but this should be a good ole fashion beat down.

Vikings have a decent run defense don't they? I do believe that Morris/Helu/Griffin ought to be able to open some running lanes, but we need to pass consistently too. Just need to keep solid balance.

Ranked 29th, one spot ahead of the Skins

Ya know, I was taking that from people defending Dallas' lack of run attempts against them, didn't check the actual stats... go figure.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Ed Hochuli is the ref tonight. I HATE when he does our games. Expect a lot of ticky tack calls. The game will probably end at 1am.

I want to see D. Hall get a pick 6 and do the Deion Sanders dance :)

Lets go Skins!

Good job Rak!

Alright BM!

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

I don't know why but this feels like a pre season game. Crowds quit.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Wow, that was a RIDICULOUS run by Morris!

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Huge catch by Mr. Hanky, love the use of the hands to pluck that one, we need him to keep developing. Morris - Beast!!

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

wtf.

Come on. Punch it in!

Hated that second down call.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

This will come back to bite us.

Mayock is the best announcer in the NFL. And that's a garbage play on 3rd down. Paulsen isn't good enough to make that play.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Dropped TD. SMH.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

If hes going to throw the ball that hard when its that short. It needs to be lower. Period

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Looked like the chargers there....

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Wtf....

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

Wow, did coaches watch the Chargers film, and decide getting stuffed 3 times from the 1is awesome?

Why do all coaches have to go into these power formations at the goal line, we don't have a power line. Spread them out and let Morris/Helu find a hole. Nope, we have to go to the standard playbook in Coaching for Dummies.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

The 2nd down was the one I didn't like.

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

We should have went for it on 4th down. If we don't get it we make Ponder go 99 yards.

Sadly I'm not surprised we only got a fg. On a positive note, it didn't get blocked.

[QUOTE=redskins5044;1039261]The 2nd down was the one I didn't like.[/QUOTE]

Yup

Re: Redskins Vs Vikings Gameday thread
 

WTF was that call.
