I believe our "horrible secondary" has made the game winning plays
2 weeks in a row. So I'll take it. :roll:

I believe Caine was referring to the Packers horrible secondary.

Yes indeed I was. The Packer secondary is their achilles heel. Harris is an "OK" DB, and Sharper is ageing. While they will improve with time, right now that is where they can be exploited.

Our secondary is more skilled, but suffered in the past from poor play by our front 7 (Hovan ineffective and Linebackers not locking down their lanes). Hopefully the changes in the front 4 will translate to better all around play by the "D".

actually it was the officials. Was I the only one who so the no
TD by B.O.??

out

Naw, I saw it too. If memory serves that was the play that they delayed getting the replay up where Tice could review it and they did a 'hurry up' on the extra point. Then it became a too late too bad so sad kind of deal. An official was standing right there and still called it a TD even with clear evidence that TO lacked control of the ball.

Didn't ABC concentrate so much on what TO would do for a touchdown celebration that they failed to show a replay until after the extra point kick. They were so hooked on his antics that they didn't give Tice the look he needed.

If the Vikes win the division and stay ahead the NFC West winner, and the Eagles are the top seed in the conference, I don't believe the Vikings would play the Eagles until the NFC championship game. It would be really sweet to be the ones who deny them the Super Bowl for the 4th time straight.

Only one thing would make me happier...football-wise that is!!! :cheers:

hey i don't have bo lol and yes that wasn't a td

I know that the TD scored by TO was bogus, but the Eagles were raping our defence that night anyway...Let's just beat them next time...

yeah in the nfc championship

We moved the ball on them pretty well too, take away Owens' Td and the penalties and turnovers we would have won.

And take away the fact that they scored more! Who cares, we played S*itty and they took advantage of it! If we play them in the playoffs hopefully the outcome will be the other way around!
