Now that's good playcalling there on that drive. The offense has woken up a bit on that last possession.

Finally, the right spot gets determined and the refs terrible ball spotting gets corrected.

Jared Goff owes everyone on that defense an autographed Mustang in a color of their choice for tonight's performance.

FINALLY, a flag on the Vikings offense.

Both. Well, a bad play call in the context of the war Goff has looked tonight.

I don't know how much more you can ask of them really. They've done just about everything right and have been stout on the goalline.

Arnold down now. You've got to be ****ing kidding me.

What the effffff. Goff overthrew him by a mile.

Chef's kiss Aaron Glenn.

Once AGAIN they miss a delay of game.

That was a ****ing rotten call against Branch. WTF!

Thank you Aaron Glenn for keeping us in the lead and keeping this game competitive.

This offense owes this defense an apology at halftime, including Johnson to Glenn. As bad as this defense has been at times this year because of injuries, Glenn is calling a masterful game tonight. He's really done a great job matching coverages and getting pressure on Darnold all night thus far.

When you have the best Oline in the league just pound the rock home for the first.

They tried to catch them napping, so I get what they did. But they needed to just run it or sneak it there.

I can't tell from the one reply visual, but live action, it looked like he just got the first down.

He's been dialing up pressure and it's clearly working out well l. Darnold isn't getting the time or in position to make the throws he wants.

Goff's decision making and reaction time needs to be a touch quicker.

That's unfortunate there. Ugh!

Gaaah Goff needed to get rid of that ball a click sooner.

What a big defensive stand there. Absolutely massive stop.

DELAY OF GAME!!!!!!!!

I'm not saying they'll be St. Louis from 2019 and go worst to first and win it all. They won't as their defense is still too poor for that kind of a turnaround and we need more guys on offense to pick it up a bit. They don't quite have that level of physicality that St. Louis had along the boards and in their own end either. But if McLellan can keep the team playing with this level of energy and physicality than I think they will make the playoffs. This has been as fun as nearly anything we watched under the Lalonde era. There was that run we had, right before we collapsed last season, that was a lot of fun and felt like we were turning a corner. But other than that, the Lalonde era didn't produce much.

Am I wrong or a bad fan for thinking the Vikings are going to win? I don't think they're doing to blow us out, I think this is going to be a down to the wire type of matchup. A much closer loss than when we lost to the Bills for sure. I thought the offense was expected to carry an unrealistic load in that Buffalo game. But I still feel like we're going to lose and feel like a bad fan as a result. I can't shake feeling this way because of all our injuries to on defense, at critical positions along the front 7 and at CB. I just worry that Darnold is going to get a ton of time inside the pocket. With no pass rush I think our CBs will struggle to cover and contain Jefferson and Addison and they will have big games as a result. I'm not sayin both Jefferson and Addison are going to have 100+ yards each or multiple touchdowns each. I just feel really insecure about where this defense is at and that the offense is once again, as with the Buffalo game, going to be asked to do too much.
