Vikes have only trailed 22% of the time this season, which leads the league. Commies second at 38%.

Since the playoff field expanded in 1990, no 6th seed has won more than 11 games. Going to happen this year with either Packers or Vikings. Hopefully nfl doesn't overreact and stop giving byes to division champs.

I'm not there yet, but starting to hear some national voices label the Vikings super bowl favorites. Who'd have ever thunk . . .

Boone and Sirles podcast talking about how difficult are the Thursday games on players' bodies. They said the first thing they checked when schedules came out was if they had any December games on Thursday. Was also funny listening to them talk about gifts for offensive linemen in light of...

Very good. Interesting how 4 teams (at least) have a legitimate shot. NFC playoffs going to be intriguing. Believe I would go with Philly at this point, but not at all confident about that choice. Obviously would be so helpful for Vikes to get the bye if going to make a run to the super bowl.

Former player and current player agent Jeremiah Sirles says Darnold's agent will ask for $60 million a year. Locked on Vikings podcaster Luke Braun says Darnold will get $40 -$50 million a year. Vikings podcaster Alec Lewis wonders if Vikes could get Darnold at a discount - $40 million a year...

Let's say for some reason you are determined to place a large bet on who makes the super bowl out of the nfc. Which team would you place your money on?

NFL.com does an mvp watch every week. This week's version just came out: 1. Josh Allen 2. Lamar Jackson 3. Saquon Barkley 4. Jared Goff 5. Sam Darnold 4th best QB. 2nd best in nfc. Ahead of Herbert, Burrow, Mahomes, Love, Dak, Stroud, Stafford, Hurts, etc. Who'd have thought there...

I thought it would be interesting to look back at preseason rankings. Here is the Sept. 1 ESPN effort. AFC omitted. 1. San Francisco 4. Detroit 6. Dallas 8. Philadelphia 10. G.B. 13. LA Rams 15. Atlanta 19. Chicago 21. Seattle 22. T.B. 23. Arizona 25. Minnesota 26. N.O. 28...

This Nov 20 article says field goals are being made at a record pace this season. Made from distance as well. 85% of all field goals are made and 72% of field goals from beyond 50 yards earn the three points also. https://www.npr.org/2024/11/20/nx-s1-5179900/nfl-kickers-field-goals

I think narrowing the goal posts should be at least considered. Not sure what the stats say, but seems like makes are becoming too automatic. Even from beyond the 50 as you say.

Cheapest ticket right now on stubhub for Vikes-Pack next week: $363

Now how can I ever top that. You definitely win the who is the happiest contest. Well done 🙂.

A bit testy today I see. Hopefully can get a Vikings win today to lift your spirits 👍.

Seahawk players look at the scoreboard and see the Rams and Cards both trailing. Could be a big day for the Seahawks if they can beat us.

Was surfing the web and came across a Bears reaction site. These three guys watch the game and react on their podcast. They are actually playing monopoly today on their pod. When someone messages and asks why they are playing a board game when the Bears are on, they say it is because the Bears...

Yes. But there are gh posters to this day who will defend Kwesi for that draft.

Stuck watching Jets-Rams down here in Rochester. 😡 Would be nice to get Lions-Bears or even Commies-Eagles.

Would be interesting to see the NIL for the BB team. I have seen a ranking showing gopher athletic dept as a whole ranks 10th among big10 schools ( private schools USC and NW excluded).

Guess I don't recall such a definitive report, but you could certainly be correct. Perhaps Gates just wasn't interested in us.
