On this date in 1987, Al Michaels was calling the World Series and Kent Hrbek hit his 6th inning grand slam in game 6 as the Twins faced elimination! 37 years later, he will call our Vikings game tonight!!!
I am most confident in the Vikings kicking game. I am not so sure on the defense. The defense needs to do better at covering Receivers. Offense needs do better in the trenches.
Would it be feasible to complete the team this way... Danrold and a fifth and a conditional later pick for Stafford. Then trade two first rounders for Dexter Lawrence. Superbowl winning QB in a short window helps transition to McCarthy. Then add a pocket collapsing dt to play along Phillips and that nasty pass rush in a good scheme. I think that would push us over the top and help us long term.
Don’t worry about Darnold…he has to go through the ups and downs of his position to learn and come back wiser and stronger. KOC has proven that he can coach up QB’s, even veterans like the Vikings persona non grata of last year. Look for better play against the blitz from the Saminator!
Christmas is to be with family not watching games but it is ok screw the streaming 😮and all these out of control contracts and the crazy ticket prices! Every sport drops in popularity look at baseball and basketball ratings dropping players want to play when they want ! Skol from chicago
Worried about tonight’s game. NFL should have a rule that on Thursday night games the home team also can’t be at home on the Sunday prior. Very tough for Vikes to have to travel all the way to LA on a short week while the Rams just played at home. And as a fan who wants to have your team play two games at home in 5 days.
The luck ranking is one of the dumbest things I have ever listened to. What a dumb metric. Somehow teams that lose are unlucky and teams that win are lucky. The rams got pushed around and won last week and are somehow deemed unlucky. What a dumb thing for Phil to rely on.
Screw streaming. Its more expensive to subscribe to all of these platforms than it was to have a basic cable plan. Completely defeated the purpose of cable cutting. I'll continue to watch my games with my friend Jack Sparrow.
Don't let this distract you from the the fact that in 1966, Al Bundy scored four touchdowns in a single game while playing for the Polk High School Panthers in the 1966 city championship game versus Andrew Johnson High School, including the game-winning touchdown in the final seconds against his old nemesis, Bubba "Spare Tire" Dixon
