I'll be able to see most of this game, but I probably won't bother. I expect a slaughter and won't comment unless we somehow are winning.
Green Bay and Seattle play tomorrow night. I expect that game to be much better. New England and Baltimore play tonight. I'm planning on watching some of that game, too.
GAME:
Great first half. This is NOT the conservative Vikings team that has been losing for over a year and a half.
4th and one on the goal line? They WENT for it. An underdog should always do that. We NEVER do. Result: TOUCHDOWN!
The defense puts good pressure on their QB. We get the ball back and let Ponder run as a designed play? Yes. Result: TOUCHDOWN!
We throw a ball to the middle of the field with hardly any time left in the half and get out of bounds in time? Result: FIELD GOAL as time runs out.
Unbelievable.
Can it last? Still not optimistic, but at least hopeful.
Go VIKINGS!!!
Second Half:
Wow. The Vikes just won EASILY. Despite bad reffing, horrible special teams coverage, and THREE fumbles by Gerhart in the last 3 1/2 minutes, the Vikings beat the team who I thought was the best team in football.
WOW!!!!
Speechless...
ReplyDeleteI saw some improvement from Ponder. I liked how he handled that first touch down play. Greenway was awesome and the entire team played very well. They won that game, SF didn't give it to them.
DeleteI wonder which team they really are. Last weeks or this weeks?
Ths short answer? Last week's.
ReplyDeleteJust kidding. More in today's blog.
