Teddy Bridgewater is the worst tackler on earth.

Risk/Reward is just not there for your QB to get down and dirty making a tackle.  Thats how Cutler broke his thumb years ago.

Agreed. Just funny he was put in that position twice in just a couple of weeks and it went the same way both times.

Not true. You also can count on the Vikings choking like dogs at some point every single season in 6 decades as an NFL franchise. Quite often multiple times per season.

A decade ago the Vikings wore a "50" patch on their uniforms to indicate their franchise age. 

Such a dumb idea to remind everyone how many seasons have ended in futility.   Up to 60 now, with no end in sight.

With a short field they were very fortunate to win.  Still a baffling decision to me.  Punt the ball and get a stop.

It was basically the same decision Belichick made way back when. Leading by a few points, he went for it on 4th-and-short rather than punt the ball to Indy and Peyton Manning with a couple minutes to go.

Like the Lions, the Pats didn't get the first down. Like the Lions, the Pats gave up the go-ahead score. Unlike the Lions, the Pats weren't able to rally to victory.

I kinda like the call. In this case, it was a 0-10-1 team actually trying to win instead of trying not to lose. Plus, it was fun!

Sure, but that was a net win for the Bears
If you think for one second that I am comparing the USA to China you have bumped your hard.

Lion fan wants to know how many playoff games the Vikings have won in your lifetime?

When is the last time the Lions were the only NFC North team to get a win in a week?

There may be a reason NE only passed the ball 3 times.

Crazy weather for a game. I do not remember a game where one team only passed 3 times. Crazy that the kickers were as accurate as they were.

The problem was that he had to throw in unthrowable conditions.

Apparently armchair QBs aren't the only ones who believe there is such a thing as "halftime adjustments" in NFL games.

From The Athletic, on why Rhule fired Brady:

Rhule pointed to a couple of areas that were trouble spots for Brady, namely the lack of production coming out of halftime and an inability to find sustained success in the run game. ... The Panthers have scored a league-worst 18 offensive points in the third quarter, a damning indictment of Rhule, Brady and the entire offensive staff's lack of halftime adjustments. "We've had more success early in the game than we do later in the game," Rhule said.

Interesting article on ESPN website about injuries in the NFL.

Only the Ravens have been hit harder by injuries this year than GB.

This is borderline unwatchable. NFL didn't do the Steelers any favors having to play their rival late Sunday and then turn around and go on the road Thursday night.

If the Vikings lose this game, Zimmer should be fired at the 50 immediately after the coaches handshake.

I know Kahn doesn't want to admit his error and/or pay the buyout, but the Urban thing really only ends one way right?
