I'm going to nitpick, only because I've seen the words great and perfect associated with the throw. It was a great result, that's absolutely true (if one is a Vikings fan) and I give Keenum all the credit for throwing it up there allowing Diggs to make a play, but the entire thing is predicated on the safety screwing up. Diggs was about 5 feet from out of bounds and he had to high point the catch, meaning Diggs was not in control of being able to get out of bounds. If the safety doesn't completely blow it and take out the next closest DB, Diggs is probably tackled in bounds and it's game over.
It was very similar to Bridgewater to Johnson at Chicago in 2015 to set up the game winning FG. Great results and credit for the QB for throwing it and allowing the WR to make a play, but neither are great throws, it just worked out.
it was t predicated on ghe safety screwing up. any number of things could have happened. Case put the ball in a good place to let bis PLAY MAKER MAKE A PLAY ON IT. This is what good QBs do. This is his job and he did it well.
Sick and tird of tbe back handed compliments and whining about this and that when it comes to Case all because he isnt some people version of what they think a perfect Qb should be.
If you cant find beauty and joy in that last play then maybe you are a Minnesotan

you might want to quit reading message boards if all you want is unicorns shitting rainbows. the pass was very good, not perfect, the play was really great for the result, but the results were dependent on the defense screwing up. everybody was thrilled for the result, very happy with the result and are not knocking Case for the throw, but some are not going to make ridiculous claims like it was the most impressive pass they have ever seen or that it was perfect.
I am not sure why it has to be an extreme view point or it gets taken to the opposite. Case has played very well, he threw a lot of really nice passes on Sunday and the good guys won, what is wrong with talking about the bad plays or imperfections of the day along with the good ones?
You might want to stop whining and handing out cheap advice Jimmy. Your act is getting old and tired.

Speaking of extreme. Someone really tried to say the INT was a good read? a weak heave off the back foot was a good read?
No, if he had the footwork to make the throw, the WR was open. But a wobbler to slightly open WR doesn't make it a good read. That was a bad play through and through. Timing, field position, the blocking, the decision and the throw.

What makes his accuracy is his ability to read coverage. He doesnt force the ball, his rainbow throws are always one on one type coverages with the ball placed away from defenders.
Even the INT, it was a bad throw with too much air, but that read was golden. The WR flashed open up the sideline between the CB/Safety zone.
Yea I saw that to. I thank he spazzed there because that could have been a touchdown. If he only wasn't getting tackled when his eyes were flashing Goalpost's. He knew better and said so after the game.
The irony.

I remember last year when this site moved away from a message board that wasn't unicorns shitting rainbows.

Ok. Is there anything else you would like me to do to be a better fan? I literally said give credit to Keenum for allowing Diggs to make a play. Again, great results, exciting play. It's funny that some that are so against Keenum critiques are the same that wanted Bradford to replace Keenum in the last game.
Mariota had a great result, exciting play in the wild card game with his TD pass to himself. It was a poor read and a bad throw, but still an exciting play. It's almost as if the games have some randomness and can't be won on paper.

the message board that was not longer being supported by the hosts, the one that Mike was working on alternate sites and software to replace in order to maintain what we had going months prior to making the change, is that the one you were talking about? OK, just making sure you know what you are talking about.
You really ought to get rid of your condescending attitude. It's unbecoming a moderator.
