Unless there are some major injuries on D I don’t see it

i wouldn't really say that. My son just started high school and the sports he plays freshman are very under valued and some are skill wise better then the upper classman, it really boils down to experience and that is Sam's biggest weakness right now.

Unless Sam is Burrows his rookie year you run with the been there done that guy until any hope of this season has been lost.

Let's not forget so quickly how dysfunctional this D was early on this year...
I'm happily impressed by how they dramatically improved recently, and I'm cautiously confident they can keep going this way, but I don't know that I have enough confidence in Ron and his staff to completely exclude the potentiality of an ugly unravelling.

Any improvements on the defense can be easily undone by a terrible offense. I think holding the Vikes to 7 points for 3 quarters was a good job. But the offense was only able to come up with 17 points and your defense can only hold for so long.

Holding the Vikings to 7 points for 3 quarters, and 20 points overall, and not winning that game was a gut punch.

GB, MIN, and IND all give up about 20-21 points per game on average. We averaged 20 points per game against those teams over the three weeks Heinicke has started. That tells you that the output of this offense with Heinicke - is average at best. Going to have to get that number up to 24-25 down the stretch to have a shot at a wild card spot.

5 of the last 8 games will be against teams that rank in the top 10 with regard to points allowed per game.

Re: Vikings Post-game Thread

Just found a new go to podcast for the nuts and bolts of the game film.

It's called the "Take Command" pod with Logan Paulsen. He's former a former Skin, incredibly smart, and he reminds me of the Cooley film Breakdowns with out the "look at me" vibe.

He really changed my opinion on Scott Turner v T.H. blame game after the last game against the Vikings.

Maybe alot of you all already listen, but it was new to me and wanted to pass it on.

I had heard about him doing a pod, I think Al Galdi had him on his pod some while ago.
I'll check it out. Cooley is also doing some sort of film breakdown every now on then on Sheehan's pod but I haven't listened that much this year.
