a p***y o-line thats done nothing all year.

how many games does sing have to watch to realized this o-line is not a smash mouth line.

Why haven't we offered Langston Walker a deal yet? P.S. I know how elated most of us where to get Crabtree but Michael Oher right now would be nice.

Third time this season we cant run the clock out, how many times before we start calling NFL plays?? fucckk Raye and fuuckk him again and again!!

I really think we would have had a better chance to pickup yards if we come out in I-formation & wide recievers split out wide. By doing goal line offense they just stack the box & pound our offense.

If we did use a regular pro set as you describe, we would either have man converage on 1 WR or the defense would keep the safeties back to help and leave only 7 defenders in the box. Most of today we dealt with 8 men in the box, minimum.

You make a good point, stacking 9 men in the box was probably, to some degree, a reaction to our formations. If we show 2 TEs and a motion a WR inside, I don't see how you could do anything but stack the LOS with at least 9 guys.

Maybe Sing and Raye think they should still be able to win those 11 on 11 battles

8 out of 13 1st downs were threw the air. Maybe Sing and Raye should re-thing this "run at all cost" playcalling

Link please

sorry it was on the point after

he said it in the sense he could have done more (prepared more)

I just watched us GIVE A GAME AWAY. The run three times up the gut of the Vikes was STUPID... Why the hell go conservative when you can win the game with a 1st down... We were one 1st down from being 3-0 and a top team in the NFC. The O is far to predictable.

This.

And, what made us successful in the 80s? Using the pass to set up the run! If we pass a little more, we'll move the chains. Consistantly running the ball against 8/9 man fronts for little gain (or negative yards) makes absolutely zero fkn sense. Make them respect the pass, and it'll open the run, yes?

You think maybe all the purple cool-aid is gone now? Finally.

Is it too late for a reality-based offensive scheme?

Don't blame poor Raye. He is just following orders.

I hope this loss makes them rethink wtf they're doing. But losing Gore will definitely change things. I do not think we can run 60% of the time with Coffee yet. We will pass more next week and it should work, and when it does work hopefully we don't stubbornly stick to the run in the future if it's being stopped.

anyone see the gameday highlights?

Thats all that should be said

O Line. ver yppor. exept these two runs from cofee no run blocking.
Pass protection, not bad, just one sack, yet to much pressure allowed.

Playcalling predicable.

After our defence stopped the vikings on 4th down we failed miserably at putting the game away.

No imaginatioon whatsoever.

Raye has to do a much better job at the end of a game. This is now three games in a row were he fails to call a good secure the win series.

One playaction pass could not have hurt.

Passing game was pretty effective. Hill had a solid game.

What makes me mad is teh fact that we were not able to put the game away.

Just one first down was enough.
