Well, no Tomlinson again, no Darrisaw and Evans and yeah.....a challenge for sure. 

Sounds like Darrisaw might be good to go since he practiced yesterday. Even if he can't Blake Brandel played a good game in Buffalo.

Evans hurts with Dantzler on IR. Only Shelley and Booth opposite P2.

I rewatched the game and had also forgotten about Cook dropping the ball right in his hands which would have been an easy TD on the play from the 1 that the Bills were offsides, did this reporter not see that as a fluke?

You guys are too desperate for someone else’s approval.


For me, I don’t think the original post is that far
off.  I think we’ve shown that peak Vikings
football is good enough to beat anyone, but we left ourselves in a scenario where
we needed a lot of things in a row to go right for us in order to get the win
and it’s great that we achieved it, but if we end up in the championship game /
super bowl depending on a fumble recovery for a TD, how much do you want to bet
on that happening?  Part of the appeal and
why everyone is calling it the game of the year is the unlikely nature of our
comeback, and while I certainly appreciate having the moxie to perform those
comebacks, I’d also like to not need to do so because we took care of business
earlier.  That said, games against top
teams come down to the end, because it’s just hard to dominate top teams, but
if we had more convincing wins against lesser teams, it would seem less like
luck when we beat top teams.

Everyone in the fanbase is so skittish and defensive.....the next loss and it'll be Eeyore-fest on this board and the 'I told you so' brigade will show up. Can't enjoy anything because the scars run so deep. Take a different mindset, I have. And I'm as long-timer as they get and always expect the other shoe to drop.
If they lose today, they'll be 8-2. Which anyone on this board would have slapped their Grandmother for in late August. Chill the F out.


I'm enjoying it game to game.

I get it.  Vikes don't have gaudy stats to back up their record.  Expect more of the same from the talking heads.  Might as well start prepping.

I think this is Mike McCarthy on the left and Kevin O'Connell to the right, if I'm not mistaken.
