Better Oline play and this would have been a blowout.

I've seen the hoody call for it, IIRC.

That catch by Diggs... it bears repeating how great a catch that was. Not just the dive and the two handed snag, but the tuck and control as he was landing... really an amazing feat. :smilevike:

Diggs is the real deal... a true go-to guy and play maker. He has a bright future.

Meanwhile Frazier's defense is having it's typical late game collapse.

Hey, Slow your roll on Diggs. Despite the awesomeness of his play, he was chosen in the 5th round for a reason. (/sarcasm) :P
I've told people a million times not to exaggerate!

It's pretty impressive that Teddy hit 8 different receivers today. Still amazed at that catch by Diggs.

Thirded. The better the rest of the team looks, the more frustrating it is to see the offensive line allow sack after sack and TFL after TFL.

The Vikings can win 9-10 games a season (I think) playing the way they did today, but if the OL doesn't improve markedly the squad will have major difficulty competing with the better teams in the league.
