I’m glad we didn’t draft Caleb Williams.
Where are all the pundits who predicted the Vikings to have one of if not the worst record in the league this year?
OH DANNY BOY THE TUDDYZ THE TUDDYZ ARE CALLING! FROM END ZONE TO END ZONE!
LOL, refs help Mahomes out a bit with that flag. Too bad the INT didn’t stand.
Always
Yup, when he doesn’t play well, he’ll get some help from the zebras.
Another mostly peaceful assignation attempt I see. Vibes and Joy has a weird affect on some.
Bengals leading the Chiefs 16-10 with 1:12 left in the half.
We always cheer for whoever is playing against the Chiefs.
Man, the Cardinals are stomping the Rams… 31 to 3.
Didn’t see that one coming.
Marvin Harrison Jr was a bust until he got 2 TDs in the 1st qtr.
Now he has 130 yds receiving, that’s Jets territory.
Quite a few injuries to the Rams after the Lions game.
Jets should be fine….
Whew, what a relief.
We out gained the 49ers ‘power rushing attack’ 146 to 102.
And we had 5 sacks to their 4.
Maybe our OL is better than their DL? or Our DL is better than their OL?
Or we just got home field breaks.
Just glad we got the Win.
Very happy for the win, and we looked good doing it, in all three phases for the second game in a row.
I accredit it to me managing to ‘#nojinx’ all of your dangerous statements throughout the game.
Laughing…
Not all heroes wear capes.
Guessing Sam will sleep well tonight.
Twinkies scored enough to get a win vs Cinn. 9-2.
Still two games up for the last playoff spot.
Beating the Niners is always an awesome win! Hope the reports on here about Jefferson being OK are correct. Vikings D looked terrific. The other two teams I was cheering for both lost and now Ravens are 0 – 2. Yikes.
Welcome back Ms Kathy.
Win makes the day/weekend all the sweeter.
Especially against a good team like that.
My wife is a big Ravens fan. She says she’s going to binge watch “Iron Chef” replays for the next few days.
We cheer for Ravens since Lamar was a UofL player.
Nice win for the purple! Gotta cleanup the turnovers, should’ve won by 20. A wins a win though, and I’ll take it. Skol
It is always sweeter when the ‘experts’ say we have no chance.
The Athletic’s Vic Tafur gives the Minnesota Vikings ZERO chance to beat the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.
Think Jet has a quad contusion, not serious. Think Turner not bad . SKOL!
We are currently leading our division.
Yeah baby!
SKOL!!
Costly win. Wonder what is up with Jets and Dallas Turner
Yes, very concerning going forward.
They were both walking ‘normally’ on the sidelines.
Have hope that they are both more than ‘fine’.
The last I saw of Jefferson he was very hobbled walking into the tunnel. They never showed him again.
Was listening to KOC on post game, what he said.
I saw him walking into the tunnel and he was walking normally looked like to me.
Maybe a different Jets in a different tunnel.
That’s a good football team in San Francisco…..
AND WE BEAT THEY ASS TODAY!!!!
LETS GO CRAZY!
LETS GET NUTS!!
DETROIT LOSES AT HOME!
UPDATE 12:41 P.M: Initial reports indicated that two people were firing at each other outside the course. However, sources have stated that investigators now believe the Secret Service agent was the only shooter.
According to sources, the Secret Service spotted a suspicious individual on the Trump International Golf Course and opened fire after seeing what appeared to be a gun barrel.
The man’s motives are currently unknown and he was arrested by local police on the I-95.
Current reports are that it was an assassination attempt. Terrifying.
@LucasFoxNews
Secret Service opened fire on potential gunman carrying AK-47 outside Donald Trump’s golf club in West Palm Beach, Fla. this afternoon while the former president was playing golf.
Investigators are treating the suspect as a potential assassin, U.S. official tells Fox News.
“This does not appear to be some random guy with an AK-47 walking outside Trump’s club,” the official added.
Early reports are always misleading, so gonna take some time to get the story straight. Believe there will be a press conference soon.
Right. Reports say Trump was 2 holes away from where the assassin was waiting in the trees, but this time Secret Service moved him to safety and didn’t let him get in range. The extra shots supposedly was secret service shooting at the assassin. They missed, but caught him in getaway vehicle.
Nice win. Worried about Jet. A pyrrhic victory?!
First place all alone!!!!!
Wife texted me that Trump was shot at again…
Saw headline that there was shooting ‘near Trump’.
No? If true i suggest cackles is in serious danger. Keep me informed.
Quality win, noice!
The best part of this win, is it didn’t take a bunch of lucky plays. The Vikings look like the real deal.
get healthy this week, hopefully the injuries are minor, and everyone is back next week.
This defense, a very good running game, and Darnold throwing strikes. Looks good to me!
What a tremendous win. Balanced attack, offense and defense both did their jobs. Defense especially.
Vikings win 23-17
Tampa punts. Lions have the ball at the Bucs 35 with 27 seconds left, first and ten, with no timeouts.
Now ballgame.
Told you… grin. Way to go Vikings!!!
Van Ginkel almost won the game with another interception on a screen pass. He was inches away from securing that one.
23-17 1m 12s left.
Defense coming up big, time and time again.
Goff throws a 5 yard pass, and the Bucs take over.
Lions have 4th and 8 at the Tampa 11…
Good grief, both teams are gonna have their entire roster injured.
Still think the game is over.
It should be.
Yep, I think an onsides is nearly impossible with the new rules. If the Vikes get the ball back, they’ll just drop into victory formation.
Dallas Turner limping off.
I don’t like this defensive series. Fuck the prevent defense. All it does is prevents you from winning.
Yup. Keep doing what worked before, prevent defense seldom helps
Agreed, prevent defense pisses me off every time I see it.
Up two scores, making them burn clock, 2 min warning.
I will allow it.
A 3 and out would be nice.
That would be most welcome. Or a turnover.
Lions at the Tampa 36 with 2 minutes left, down by 4.
Saints whooping the Cowboys 44-19 with 5 minutes left in the game. Garbage time for Dak.
Holy sheet.
A made FG in a must situation.
I was only a little worried on that FG.
Quite the change.
It feels good to have a reliable kicker.
#nojinx
Game!
#nojinx
I have faith in ‘The Fates’ ability to take it from us.
Defense is gonna seal the deal right here.
SF out of time outs.
OK, we’re good. Kick the field goal, put the game out of reach.
Ricola will nail it
Chandler having a game
Keep that clock moving, get points.
FG here helps.
TD here is better.
We’re gonna score!
