MaroonBells is smart, I am not....
MB knows football, I know less. lol. You were right, man. Vikings blew them out. Happy to be wrong!
37-17, love it! Skol!
They should of had more. Too many 3 and outs on stupid WR screens and behind the LOS gimmick plays. They were lucky one or more didn't end up in a turnover.
The OLine continues to be a major issue with this team. As long as we have to start Hill, Cousins will need to continue his knack for making miraculous throws and our running backs will repeatedly get hit behind the line of scrimmage. The Saints are going to abuse Hill next week forcing Cousins into quick throws to avoid getting sacked. With our defense still very leaky at times, I don't feel real good with how they are playing and the injuries to key players for next week's matchup.

Even if Reiff comes back, what are the odds they put O’Neill back on the bench and Hill back ar RT? Would not surprise me at all. It would be stupid, but not surprising.

But yah, Zimmer might be ultra-conservative of putting the rook out there for such a big, nationally televised night game.
Edit - I'll echo Sticky's kudos to MB, nice call. No Viking fan has ever seen a win on the road against the Jets, until today. That's about 5 decades folks.

Considering Reiff didn't practice at all last week, I will be very surprised if he will be ready to play next Sunday night. Even at 80%, he is still better than Hill, but my concern is that his foot injury is a lot more severe that what we are being told and that he will re-aggravate it if he doesn't let it completely heal. Not only has O'Neill totally outperformed Hill at RT, he has consistently graded out as one of our top lineman when given a chance. Hopefully Zimmer finally wakes up and sees what all of us see, but I wouldn't put any of my own money on that bet.

Not at all. Maybe a little more Aspen than Boca, but hey...it works.
