I would like to see us run more. It might not be working now but eventually it will if you can just get carries for positive yards and manage to stay on the field. Soon enough the defense will break down, that's why you keep running the ball. Last week Chicago's run game really wasn't do much until that 53 yard run by Jordan Howard, once you keep running the ball eventually you get a big run.
 
TRade for LUCK TRADE FOR LUCK. Lmfao

I read somewhere that the Colts should trade him, wtf??

By the time it works it will be 4th quarter with 3 mins left and meanwhile our defense will have given up a couple TDs. The Vikes actually have a good defense. In case you were wondering, this is what a good defense with a good DC looks like.
 
even with a depleted receiver corps i think our offense looks the same. still a majority of screen passes. boring as usual

lmao No sorry. Other than the long Vikes drive THEY ALLOWED THEMSELVES, they were NOT ON THE FIELD LONGER THAN THE VIKES DEFENSE. It does not work that way. They still were only on the field for ONE PLAY with that turnover.

Ok so let me get this straight, you don't believe that a failing offense that repeatedly sends the defense back out after multiple 3 and outs can be to blame for a defense suddenly regressing mid game? They haven't allowed a TD, they have a turnover, they were playing a very good game until late in the second after a series of hideous drives by the offense, and you think what happened is that our defense suddenly said "fuck it we're gonna stop playing good"? You don't think that giving the offense that many tries might allow them to get into a rhythm and figure out some nuances of our defense?

So the defense is to blame here for being down, because they suddenly dropped their level of play which was totally independent of themselves...
 
I'd really like to see what Alex Collins could do with 25 carries even against this Vikings Defense.

He's bound to get at least one decent run and then could get Flacco one good play-action pass (that he would probably force to Watson. )

This passing game is woeful, it's identical to what he was doing last year only worse.
 
I still don’t understand why people are crying about our defense. They have allowed some yards on the ground but have stopped them when needed. 9 points at the half?

The Vikes offense did the exact same thing until our defense allowed them that long drive. That is the point. No one is blaming the defense but they also don't get a pass. They and no one else, allowed that long drive.
