Thankfully the NFC North is trash as the Packers don’t look good whatsoever. Vikings probably end up winning the North, but lose first round of playoffs.
I've noticed the last 2 games or so the offense is beginning to find ways to get people involved who are not named Jefferson or Cook. That's a sizable step forward that will continue to grow and help them.
I agree. I don't think they do have the guys on defense. I think they can get better, but I don't think it can be better than average this season. Hopefully, they'll have some improvement as the season progresses. Staying healthy will have a lot to do with that.
Patrick Peterson was not on the field during Chicago's final drive resulting in Dantzler's strip. I think they are finally realizing that he is just too slow now.
Kicking streaks like that only make me think, if he were still a Viking, there's a Gary Anderson moment waiting to happen. But, to your point, it was a terrible decision to release him and I'm glad it didn't derail his confidence.
All I know is that ISM was the Vikings best friend against the Bears. He lost a fumble at the end of the game that allowed the Vikings to run out the clock and on Fields' long TD run, he was called for an illegal block that nullified the TD and led to a FG instead.
