    Here’s the thing about just looking at the stats if they just looked at the stats the Detroit Lions have played the exact same teams almost to a T that the Vikings did so the combined record of the teams against them is pretty much the same, but they don’t mention that. And you can even argue that Minnesota played the 49ers at full strength minus McCaffrey, whereas Detroit‘s about to play them at less in full strength they’ve played them at weaker times same goes for when Detroit played against the Texans. The Vikings played them at almost full strength, and at the same time both of those teams were considered playoff teams early in the season. Now they’re not except for the Texans. They are trying not to give Minnesota any credit because they like these other teams better.

    I like how these analysts left out the out packers who the Vikings best because the record doesn’t fit the narrative. Plus, they leave out the fact that the Vikings were a team projected to only have 6 wins. Teams play their schedule and that’s all they can do.

  • @richquaal7478

    Vikes, Pack, & Lions all play nearly the same schedule. 4 games vs the AFC south. 4 games vs the NFC west. 6 games in division. Seems they're all untested.

    • @robnewsome2407
      @robnewsome2407 18 วันที่ผ่านมา

      Lions are 5-0 in the division and most of Vikings wins are by 7 points of less. They are a good team that's had the ball bounce they're way and squeaked out 13-2. I think they'll lose the final two games.

    You can't take these media analysis serious... how in the world can you "still" disrespect a 13-2 team... saying they haven't beaten anybody... we best those teams at damn near full strength... we're one of the reasons why those teams aren't at full strength... 😆 🤣...and Detroit barely beat us while they were damn near at full strength... Rams snuck one on us activating Puca and Kupp in a surprise activation... we went through the gauntlet of our schedule and prevailed... which every analysis said was a gauntlet... so now it wasn't a gauntlet... these fools are a joke!

  • @dravenbarth9556

    These "analysts" really piss me off on how they spin things. Earlier in the year San Francisco was supposed to be the big swinging willy in the NFC. We beat them before they had all their injuries. Now they claim our schedule was easy as if the Lions game wasn't a coin toss as well as the Rams game with the no call facemask safety. Vikings are doing something truly special this year and I can't wait to hear all the back pedaling when we get it done 😤

    Just keep moving the goal posts. After the Chicago win it waa "well lets see what happens with the next three." So Seattle was supposed to be a teat/challenge, the team wins, and then it becomes "well Seattle isnt great". So then why imply it was a challenge or a test for this team? If it was a challenge and they won the game, give them credit

    I can’t do it man. All he did was talk about pumpkin mode all season and now he HATES that he has to acknowledge it. That’s why he barely does. He was wrong period. And Brou brushes them off like the only teams allowed to win are the Eagles, Chiefs, Ravens, and Bills. He only picked the Packers because he hates the Vikings and Sam. It’s very frustrating man. They’ve won 13 games after ALL year people saying they would eventually shit the bed and they haven’t. Now it’s “well they gotta win multiple playoff games”. If they lose first round they still deserve heaps of praise for playing how they have.

    Almost everyone (fans n heads alike) is missing the pt. on MN weaknesses. It's NOT Sam Darnold. It's NOT the DB/secondary. It's the OL and DL play chiefly and the OC n DC abilities to compensate for their deficiencies....per strategy n play calling....down by down.
    Why does the OL LOVE Sam? Because he makes up for a lot of their lack of pocket protection with BIG/clutch throws.
    Why does the D love Flores? Because he stunts n blitzes like crazy to compensate for lack of DL push/pressure....most games.
    Packers n Lions know this n MORE. Going to be tough to beat them both, back to back. If wins occur, then the bandwagon respect comes Vikings way, worldwide 🌐

    They Win next week, their excuse is going to be that. "They won a one score game yet again, and they can't keep that up in a playoffs."
    When they beat detroit, they'll say, "That's good, but they won't be able to beat any of the juggernauts in the AFC in the Superbowl."

Whereas vikings have played falcons jets giants. If the lions hadn't played the bills i wonder if they would say the same for the lions as the vikings because we have played the 82% of the same opposition.

      Sauce Gardner was on a podcast earlier in the year after playing the Vikings in London. He went on record saying that KOC is the hardest coach to defend the pass against. He is absolutely crazy in the play calls because of all the routes they make coming out of the same formation. You never know what you're going to get based on the lineup until it is too late. There are no indicators as to what they think their routes are going to be because they line up the same almost all the time. KOC is magical
