    All Things 2024-25 Vikings Regular Season Thread

    It seems the last two "can't miss prospects" at QB of the past 10 years have been Williams and Trevor Lawrence. Interesting that both are in somewhat crummy situations as far as organizations/team management/coaching goes, and both haven't lived up to the hype. It's obviously way too early to...

    2024-25 Gopher Hockey Season

    If they sweep, that puts Wisco at 1-5 at 6 games in. That would be the icing on the cake. Let’s get ‘em!!

    On the topic of going for 2

    This is what I was thinking during the game- that BB would have likely punted if they were down 6 instead of 5, as they essentially gifted the Gophers the ball already within FG range by not converting the 4th down play. Too risky and with Illinois having a good defense (also knowing PJ is...

    Apparently Pat Bryant cleared concussion protocol. Edit: guess I’m slow as it looks like this was announced yesterday.

    How many Mike Morris’s tall is he? And does he have big hands?

    I also really dislike the white M on maroon helmet.

    Well, on the plus side I don’t think there are any truly great teams in the NFL this year. Just get to the playoffs and you have a legit shot.

    All Things 2024-25 Vikings Regular Season Thread

    A lot of times you can look back at a draft and gone coulda/woulda/shoulda. Justin Jefferson was the 5th WR drafted in 2020 for example. That one, the Vikes just got lucky. My big problem with the Cine pick is it was the classic Spielman “act like you’re the smartest guy in the room” bit, even...

    The number of flags in NFL games is getting annoying. 2024: 13.04 penalties/game 2023: 11.34 penalties/game 2022: 11.1 penalties/game 2021: 11.72 penalties/game 2020: 11.1 penalties/game

    4 of their 5 starting OL were drafted by the Lions, 3 of them first rounders, with one drafted in the third round. With Zeitler being the lone free agent. I completely agree with you on Campbell. I think they're winning in spite of him, and not because of him. Their GM has assembled a very good...

    UVA Tony Bennett to announce his immediate retirement in a press conference on Friday at 11 a.m.

    Assuming this is not health related, count me in the group that thinks this is a major dick move. This is much worse than a player quitting mid season. A player is only one of 13 on the roster. A coach is the coach, GM, and leader. You’re not only leaving the team you recruited high and dry...

    Big Ten quarterbacks ranked by Total QBR after Week 7 of 2024 season (12. Max Brosmer (Minnesota))

    If Geers catches the ball that hit him right in the hands on the first drive of the UCLA game on the absolute dime thrown by Brosmer, I think the tone of that game changes. But they started out losing the field position battle and let UCLA get some confidence. Brosmer's OL hasn't done him too...

    The Band Pit

    This is the correct answer. They were trying to do something special and highlight the band with their own dedicated area right at field level, something that is not common. Of course, then everybody shits all over it if it's not perfect. The easy answer is to do exactly as you describe; blow up...

    Curt Cignetti’s Contract

    At first I thought he'd be a low flight risk, given his age. However, you could flip that and say if a big dog comes calling, he only has a few years to cash in and get big $$ before he retires.

    "Simulating brandishing a weapon" penalty

    Didn’t notice that live at the game. Rewatching after I got home I’m yelling at the TV at 1am “why wasn’t that a penalty!?!” I also found it odd all the TV relays cut away right as the USC player is doing that with no mention of it on the broadcast. Not that it mattered, but it was a sore loser...
