This would be a big win against a good defense.

Let's hope we get the running game going. I'm still waiting for our first 100 rushing-yard effort by one of the RBs.

after the incredible effort last Sunday and winning a game most of us knew we were going to lose, this game is a big game but it's not a must win game - last Sunday means we can go 5-3 and have a good shot at the playoffs - not because we're a good team but because there are a number of NFC teams that are actually worse - especially those NY giants, what a joke
last week's game was a nail biter - I'll be a lot more relaxed this week - instead of 3-6 we could be 4-5 or 5-4
btw - this roster was not built to have a strong run game or to get 100 yards rushing from a RB each week
there's no way that anyone expects any of our RBs to get 100 yards against this D - Gruden will not be, that's for sure
enjoy the game - win or lose we're still in it

7-0 was more fun.

nothing wrong with a lot of scoring ... especially in a game against a better team

I guess the Vikings are a lot better than the Seahawks Home field advantage doesn't exist @ FedEx field

we're not very good inside the last 2 minutes of both the game and the half
14 unanswered by the Nikes

21 unanswered points - good thing we won last week or we'd be looking at 3-6
4-5 ain't bad and we're still in it

Still in what? Still in perpetual sub-mediocre-level performance?

we're still in contention for a playoff spot - losing this is not a big deal if we go 5-2
there's a HUGE difference between 3-6 and 4-5 - especially when you look at the rest of the season

we seem to let really good players like Kai Forbath go a lot these past 10 years

Thanks, Jay! Terrible play calling. Kicking field goals when you need TD's. Same ol' JG.

Forbath couldn't kick the KO's out of the end zone, so they cut him.

Gruden is such a really bad play caller - he keeps calling a play that doesn't have a chance of working

GAME OVER
the Vikings scored 21 unanswered points in 5 minutes

(the last 2 minutes of the half and the first 3 minutes of the 3rd qtr)
PLUS we allowed Case Keenum to have a career best game - Case Keenum is not a good NFL QB, not even close - Colt McCoy is better
BUT ... the really good news is we're at 4-5 and not 3-6 which is where we should be ...

I don't understand running Chris Thompson on a Heavy Jumbo play up the gut. Why wasn't Perrine in there for that?
Send Rose to on-side kicking school. That's his second horrible attempt out of two tries.

Another week, another game we fail to gain 100 yards with one of our RBs.
That's pathetic.

If you're content with 6-10, 7-9, or 8-8 records, Jay & Co. is what you need.

We should have sent Gruden to LA and kept McVay
