CURTain Call: Playoffs Baby! PLAYOFFS!

[The Gopher]

While the Vikings sit with their 3-2 record, barely escaping the wrath of a lion scorned, they are a team that is much better than their record may show.

instead of kicking a long field goal, or punting, they chose to punt the ball from a field goal situation.Cause their isnt any one back their to return the ball. Its a battle of field position.


All they have to do is run LEFT! Let's examine what is left. Matt Birk at Center (Pro Bowler), Steve Hutchinson at LG (best guard in the NFL/pro bowler), and Bryant McKinnie (Future Pro Bowler). They have Jim KLiensasser, a top 3 in the NFL blocking TE, and Tony Richardson, one of the best lead blocking full backs in the league. When i have had a chance to watch the Vikings i have seen them do nothing but run left. I also have noticed Hutchinson getting beat on blocks in run and passing game. The one i noticed most cost the Vikes the game Vs the Bears. He didnt even move and Harris got the fumble that ended up making the bears win.

Also Birk idk if its me but he looks smaller then he use to be. He should get in the weight room. Then Mckinnie he doesnt look like he tries on every play. Everything is their for a great OL but it takes time.

While Seattles OL hasnt looked good but Hutch hasnt looked much better. Thats my view as a Seahawk fan.


Good read tho. Keep the job up

why not just line up for a punt? And allow a Punter who is quickly becoming one of the best in the NFL show what he can do?

Eddie Drummond. That's why.
