    I was referring to goldy but in general I know a vocal part of steelers fanbase has been shi--ing on Tomlin for awhile

    It'd be so like the Vikings to come out after getting embarrassed by the bills and completely destroy the rams, but it'd also be so like the Vikings to come out and get destroyed again losing like 41-3 or something..

    I really don't know what to expect, glad they're playing on a short week though, good chance to prove themselves. If I had to predict I'd guess the Vikings have an 'bounce back' performance all things considered, stay close with the rams throughout then lose late. Even if they play their best it's gonna be hard to get the W here but it wouldn't shock me if they do.

    Just watched the Vikings game, pretty weird game I wouldn't be too discouraged if I was a Vikings fan other than what Timmy has been pointing out about the O-Line. They kept gifting the Bills with penalties over and over, the 2 turnovers by Cousins early were obviously bad but it could have been a lot worse the defense had little to nothing to work with because of the turnovers and they just kept shooting themselves in the foot with the penalties. That said it's gonna be pretty god d--- hard for that O-Line to contain the Rams D-Line even with their two corners out.

    I'm scared even thinking about what Suh and Aaron Donald are gonna do to the Vikings offensive line tomorrow.

    Ugh, Kirk gonna be running for his life all game. Hopefully the receivers can get open pretty quickly, Kirk won't have a lot of time I'm sure. It'll be like a couple years ago or so when Teddy and Bradford used to hike the ball and immediately start scrambling for their lives..

    Vikes offensive line has been the main weakness for years, and they still don't treat it as a priority.

    To be fair though, a lot, if not most teams in the NFL have o-line issues right now. There just isn't a lot of quality o-line play as a result of it having turned turned into a pass rushing league which is just absolutely loaded with monster pass rushers but there also seems to be weirdly little offensive line talent overall

    Hoping for one, not really sure what to expect. Vikings defense hasn’t looked as elite as it should be so far this season, and the o line always makes ya wonder how the offense will go.

    Hoping for the best but nervous. Vikings gotta win 1 of these next 2(@rams, @eagles).

    we already know for sure that talib will be out. marcus peters is a game time decision, but likely won't play because its a short week and he suffered a calf injury. we need to take advantage of those back up corners-backs. we certainly have the WR's to do it with Thielen and Diggs. on the other side, we need to shut down (or at least slow down) gurley. he's the key to their offense.

    can't wait for the game. i'm getting my food and beer ready right now :)

    Really wish the Skins had kicked Gruden to the curb and promoted McVay to head coach.

    goff made some great throws. some of those passes were amazing.

    anthony barr really struggled. he was a few steps behind on two of the TDs that the rams scored early in the game. kirk did really good and the offensive line was better than i thought it would be. they struggled late in the game, but early on they held up.

    not the greatest start to the season, but we went toe to toe with one of the best teams---so i can't be too discouraged
