Game day comments: giants/vikings

Post by SunyP »

I have a funny feeling this will be the 1st time the Vikings win easily...they're overdue. The giants are 3 and 6 in their last 9 games. And the 3 wins were against terrible teams, wash, indy, houston. If the defense can play just average I think we win easily but if they if they don't try to disguise they coverges it can be another toss up game.

I feel somewhat the same. I fear the revenge factor from our previous win.

Get by this week. We have a tough one next week 49er.

My picks NFC/AFC playoffs

NFC

49ers
Eagles

AFC
Chiefs
Bengals

Vikings. Can win. But fear that odds are against us in close games. We lose big, win close

Fire Donatell right now. 1st and 20 and then right gown the field. This D sucks big time. Big plays left and right. Only took 3 minutes.

Is Donatell the reason for the problem or is it just that our D sucks?

We give up a TD here the game is out of hand. Giants are averaging 20 yards per play. Can we count on another comeback from 14 down? I don't think so.

Doesn't mean much if the players in the show aren't good enough. Maybe the players are great and everything that has ever gone wrong for our D this year is Donatell's fault. Sometimes you get what you wish for. We could fire Donatell and the new guy could be way worse. I don't know.

I love Irv Smith coming back to get the TD.

Is scoring on our defense the equivalent of punching your way out of a wet paper bag?

Even if we score on this drive we likely leave them enough time for a game winning FG.
