    Offsides negates personal fouls?

    LMAO ... right the Head of Officiating doesn't understand the rules. So please explain this: Why doesn't every team in the NFL blatantly jump offsides to beat the snapcount, knowing if they touch the ball they can legally and deliberately drive their shoulder into the Kicker's plant leg and...

    Offsides negates personal fouls?

    LMAO .... then count Dean Blandino among them. Nobody outside of Seattle will buy that garbage. That was an absolute travesty of officiating to end the half. Blandino already on Twitter to admit the refs screwed up bigtime not calling Roughing the Kicker, and nfl.com blasted the crew for...

    Officiating is so bad, I quit!

    . This "bottom line...you failed to do X" in the face of SBXL-bad officiating is such a poorly conceived line of reasoning. By the time you hit the NFL, the parity is unparalleled. If you make the field in the NFL, you are one of the best in the world at your position. As such, EVERYTHING...

    Officiating is so bad, I quit!

    Please, you think Vikings haven't been screwed by bad calls? Every Packers game we are battling the refs. Last year we were the least penalized team in NFL but vs Green Bay we suddenly rack up a slew of ticky tack calls while they never get called for offensive holding. We have seen it...

    Officiating is so bad, I quit!

    So were you just as outraged when Sherman grabbed Julio vs Atlanta and the Seahawks won on a blown call? Don't get too bent out of shape, you guys blasted Falcons fans here for crying about the refs a few weeks ago. Bad calls are being whistled in every game, but you've been on the good side...

    This play was so awesome vs the Vikes

    Good play by Wilson on the scramble drill but I guess I don't see anything amazing about it other than the quick recovery and presence of mind to look downfield. It wasn't a long pass or thrown into a tight window, more of a blown play by a usually sound Vikings defense. #24 Munnerlyn blew his...

    If anybody tells you lucky win?

    LOL 30 point victory my a$$. Sheer arrogance. It wouldn't kill some of you to admit that the Seahawks were lucky, and the Vikings defense is pretty damn good. Before that game so many of you were on here readily dismissing the fact we lost 4 defensive starters in the last game and many here...

    Everyone is blaming the Minny kick unit for the loss...

    Sorry but I don't see it that way at all. From 5 wins in 2013 before Zimmer to 7-9, then 11-5 and NFCN title and #3 seed, just a missed chip shot FG away from beating the NFC defending champs? Vikings are the #5 defense in the NFL, and ony 1.6 points per game behind Seattle but we don't get...

    If anybody tells you lucky win?

    Did we watch the same game? Minnesota's offense faced the #1 defense. Seattle's #1 D faced the #16 offense and arguably one of the worst passing offense's in the NFL. Minnesota's #5 defense faced an elite QB in Wilson, Seattle faced 23 yr old Teddy Bridgewater in his first playoff game...

    Kam PI was BS

    Now now don't be sour grapes, seeing you guys whine about one penalty is pretty silly when you look at the last game and the several ridiculous penalties that went against us. The fact is you can look up the rules and the link I posted that has a video description by Dean Blandino describing...

    Kam PI was BS

    Not really. Look around the NFL - right or wrong that call gets flagged on defensive players much more often than not. Pats & Packers have made a living off trying to drive their WR's & TE's into DB's who are caught flat footed trying to draw flags. We've been on the receiving end of plenty...

    Good game, feeling kicked in the 'nads

    This one is going to take some time to get over. Maybe I'm a little salty as so many Hawks fans on this board were very confident they were going to put up 30, 40 points and that they just were not worried about the Vikings due to the results of the last game. I think I am more salty as this...

    Bad Omen? It's so cold, the Vikings Gjallarhorn broke

    http://sports.yahoo.com/blogs/nfl-shutdown-corner/how-cold-is-it-in-minnesota--vikings--gjallarhorn-has-shattered-163226386.html Bud Grant was scheduled to sound the horn prior to kickoff, but it was so cold it snapped. Yikes. Not sure if the link worked or not. Good luck today, hopefully no...

    FAO Vikings Fans

    Then you don't know AP, 8 carries is too small of a sample size for him to get going. His biggest runs usually come in the 4th quarter after he's worn down the other team. You can load the box and stop him the first 10, 15 carries and then 1 missed tackle and boom, he's gone - exactly what he...

    Hawks favored by 5.5 over Minnesota

    38-7 without Lynch, Rawls, or Luke Wilson .... while the Vikings get 4 defensive starters - including their 3 best players on defense - back in the lineup who didn't play last time? Pretty confident ...

    FAO Vikings Fans

    Simple, because we won't be down 3 scores which takes our running game out of the equation. AP had 8 carries last time we played because the game was out of hand so quickly due to our defense not being able to stop Seattle's offense. If the defense can keep it close, the Vikings aren't forced...

    Aros' Fearless Prediction Thread (Seahawks @ Vikings)

    Actually the Vikings ranked #5 in points per game, so Vikes only allowed 1.6 points/game more than Seattle. Bad division or not, Vikings face Stafford & Megatron, Cutler & Jeffery and Rodgers twice a year. We played Seattle, Arizona, and Raiders, Chargers, Broncos w/ Manning before he got...

    From a Vikes perspective .... what to expect

    I think both of those posters bickering over officials are both right. First off, officiating didn't lose the game for us. We just got blown out in all phases. No calls would have salvaged a win for us. But jeeez cut the motorcycle guy some slack, nowhere did he even try insinuate that refs...

    Who's heading to Minnesota?

    Brave souls here haha ... I live in Oregon but have spent a few years in MN. The temps are going to be brutal, around 0 degrees without windchill. Good thing is next year we will have a bad ass indoor stadium where you don't have to worry about frostbite. Travel safe, bring lots of layers!

    From a Vikes perspective .... what to expect

    Hey Hawks fans, Lifelong Vikes fan here. Should be a good game this weekend. We got a serious butt kicking last go round, this time it's hard to say what to expect. Just a few random, rambling thoughts from our side: - Did you guys know Vikes were missing 3 starters on defense last time...
