Well darn it, you guys are ruining the possibilities at LB!

Asamoah and Pace are the future at LB, and probably another draft pick tbd.

Pretty wild the amount of QB’s hurt this year, 16 starters have gone out for injury, half the league. And we still have a ways to go, so in the ultimate parity league having the ultimate of parity season, everyone with a ticket to the tourney has a shot this year imo. Not saying the Vikings will go on a run, but I think it is VERY likely someone unexpected does.

The defense has been the strength over the past 3 games only giving up one td if memory serves me correctly.
Are they due for a letdown today? I hope i’m wrong but something tells me they are not going to be as stout leading to a loss.
Again, i hope i am wrong and Flores has them ready with a good plan.
It’s up to Chandler to carry the rock today with Madison being ruled out

I question the defense as in the last 3 games have been played against questionable teams with losing records.

I think them raiders just put up 63 on the chargers for whatever that’s worth.
it wasn’t a zero points

And the Bears put up 28 against the Lions on the road right after they played the Vikings.

if this D is legit and it appears to be heading down the stretch, they have a shot at making some noise in the playoffs.

ANY GIVEN SUNDAY……….OR SATURDAY

I guess we will see if they ever have to play a team with a decent offense, but the league this year is everything but consistent.

They are fifth in the entire league in PA for the season. The schedule is the schedule just like every team. They all have a weak part of their schedule.

The guys need to wrap those tackles up.
Its nonsense hitting without wrapping up

Damn that was a dime to Chase when Browning got blown up.

Didn’t realize that the Bengals had the 31st ranked defense in the league. And their main run stuffer on defense just went out.

Should be a heavy dose of Chandler today.

Nice first drive.

Some long third down conversions nice drive and up an int at the goal line.
Good teams can survive that, bad teams can’t.

Hunter just earned himself $1 million bonus with that sack.

Have to be smarter than that Mullens come in take the points.

Fugly….

-J.

Charity football again today I guess. Gets so god damn old with these critical mistakes

Mullens is def a better fit for KOC offense but man is he terribly inaccurate.

just ugly decision making by Mullins
That’s at least two Field goal attempt not realized or more

And here we thought Jake Browning was the next Tom Brady.
First pick was bad but typical of a backup. Second there is no reason for it.

KOC idiocy may cost the Vikes this game. He should have handed the ball off on both 3rd down plays that resulted in INT’s.

Yeah no. That is on the QB.

Does Flores call a different defensive scheme in the second half like he has a tendency of doing so?

I agree, just throw it away. Heck even a sack in both of those situations would have still been a relatively makable FG. Literally anything other than 2 INTs puts points on the board.

I’m starting to rethink our head coach based on some of these crazy play decisions.

I just hope they don’t go into prevent defense playing soft nothing like giving the opposing offence an opportunity to get into rhythm. edit: It appears playing zone is not a good plan

What crazy plays?

Cover two zone coverage gave the Bengals rhythm and momentum now.
There’s something about this team that does not like multiple score leads.

it’s turning into a cluster F!@# fast

Unless the time on the TV was wrong, they threw that flag when there was still time on the clock.

I’m feeling sick watching this, open the door to give a beaten down offense life and the momentum has been so typical

First and goal on the one why is Kevin O’Connell throwing the ball?
