Yes. We win, 17-10.

That was a quick trip back to the bench for Pettigrew. Nice job mayhew.

 

[Mitchrapp]

Minnesota's biggest flaw, rush defense. Unfortunately, ours is rush offense.

AP downgraded to questionable with an illness.

C'mon bird flu!!!!

If you want your QB Cook, you better hope he gets healthy.

Just can't root for my teams to lose.....no matter the circumstances.

Understand-o.

 

[mhughes0021]

When wins are meaningless...loses become important.

Since someone decided to close a thread for some dumb reason I'll continue it here:

Damn... even a discussion on the evolution of the game somehow turn into "Stafford sucks". I didn't even mention the guy. I was discussing ALL QBs... every one of them.

This record is really broken.

When in actuality the thread was talking about how easy it is to throw for yardage in today's game and staffords prolific yardage really means jack squat. Just cause i don't post every day doesn't mean i can't reference what was being talked about on a previous page.

I was messing around with some stuff and might have accidentally closed it. Hadn't realized.

Should be a win, I'm sure they'll fuck it up somehow.

 

[manchild98]

AP is listed as active today.

 

[kdp1980]

Cb Josh Wilson out, so Diggs will start in his spot snd get eaten alive with his slow feet and small frame. Where the fuck is Lawson? I expect this kid to get picked on a ton today

 

[tigermud]

I'll go with late come from behind win today, possibly in overtime again 30-27 lions

 

[manchild98]

Staff ties the team record with 85 starts as a QB...that says a lot about the history of this losing for this franchise.

 

[mhughes0021]

TD calvin.....Lombardi getting his head out of his ass....a little.

 

[manchild98]

Nice easy opening drive td to cj.

 

[Monster]

Ugh, I hate it when we put together a good drive to start the game. It always looks too good to be true and most of the time, it is. Sigh. 7-0.

 

[mhughes0021]

Staffords bad eyes actually worked in his favor that drive. Lance moore wide open for the first down on 3rd down....instead he missed him completely and found calvin for 40 yds.
