What was that one handed attempt? Looked odd, like he didn't want to really go for it.

False Start penalty. Didn't see the play at the goal line.

Diggs looks sharp and Teddy's arm strength looks solid.

Exactly! And that 3rd and goal incompletion looked like miscommunication on his part too.

Should have had 14 points and we only have 6. We need to be better in the redzone.

Is he hurt? Normally he lays out for those.

Fyi this place is LOUD. SKOL!

Cold is temporary. Purple Pride is forever.

We need TDs. Let's try throwing it in before we get to the 5 yard line?

Looks like dressed but not playing is Griffen and Kendricks. Thielen also seems to have cemented the slot position over wright.

Seemed like the defender got there a little early with the tackle. Grabbed his hip/hand.

Play calling, per usual, has been lame. Those runs into the pile on 2nd and goal from the 5-7, just don't look promising at all.
