Secondary looks promising, especially considering four or five of them aren't even playing tonight.Reignman wrote:I know it's only preseason but I don't remember the last time we held a team scoreless this late into a game. In fact our last shutout occurred on December 5th 1993 at Detroit. That was only 21 years ago (341 games including playoffs). To be fair, we did have a shutout in preseason just a few years ago vs Houston lol.

Re: Vikings v. Raiders Game Thread - August 8th
Has the ball been on the raiders side of the field at all this half?
Re: Vikings v. Raiders Game Thread - August 8th
Locke punts tonight:
1. 33 yds (inside 20)
2. 40 yds (touchback)
3. 47 yds
4. 31 yds
5. 37 yds
6. 41 yds
7. 38 yds
A 38 yard average and not much hang time. He's been awful.

That's what I like to see from a coach, Zim looked pretty serious with James there.

Damn, no shutout. I didn't jinx it, Ponders inability to move the chains is what jinxed it lol.

Man these raiders announcers are brutal, the guy sounds a hundred years old and knows absolutely nothing about football.

We have quite a knack of making scrub QB's look like Joe friggin Montana in the 2 min drill don't we?radar55 wrote:regular season with starters or pre season with the scrubs....this team cant stop anyone in the last 2 minutes of a game

Re: Vikings v. Raiders Game Thread - August 8th
Lol. Finally a decent punt by Locke. Man... I really hope this just rust otherwise this could be a long season come punt time.

Re: Vikings v. Raiders Game Thread - August 8th
Lockes best punt of the night and it was still a mediocre 45yds.
