Wasnt it about a month ago. Everyone on here was saying how good our line was gonna be and so glad we had most of em signed for the next few years. I have always thought this line is junk.

Defense keeping us in this game. Man lets just start with first downs please.

They are goddawful. No insight, misreading yards gained and saying names wrong.

Other than the first drive, defense is playing admirably today. Offense - not so much.

We've had Don Zimmer, Norv Turner working for Caldwell, and Jerome Fulton getting a handoff when it went to McKinnon.
The Devil whispered in the Viking's ear, "There's a storm coming." The Viking replied, "I am the storm." #SKOL2018

Didn't the announcers say Norv has been doing a nice job with Cadwell?

For sure! They sent us the JV production crew that's for certain. I missed the opening of the game so I can't be sure, but I think one of the announcers is Mike Goldberg. I'm used to hearing his terrible commentary when watching UFC but never thought I'd have to suffer through it while watching my beloved Vikings!

I don't think the Lions converted a 3rd down play yet. Defense is really playing well since the first drive.
