Hawks are going to look so damn good on the field beating the crap out of the Vikings.
I hope so. Although I don't expect us to have the cleanest game on offense. Brian Flores knows Sam very well and will be able to use what ammo he has to it's best.
I do think though that our defense will destroy them.

I agree, their defense is tough and I almost guarantee there will be some frustration on offense. But then again nobody has had an answer for JSN yet this year and I don’t see that stopping Sunday.

Agree. It really is reminiscent of the Largent years and how savvy he was in his ability to get open. When you would see him on his route, there was nothing explosive or remarkably athletic about anything he did... But he was always open and often wide open. I would often sit there and just wonder, how?

JSN is the same kind of player. It's a special thing we are witnessing

That is 100% true, man.

But it goes both ways here :

Sam knows Flores' Defense very well also as he's played against it in Vikings Training Camp, their offseason program, and all throughout the regular season in practice last year.

Now he may not know the new guys they have in Hargrave (and the other guy they got) but he does know Metellus, Greenard, Van Ginkel, and the others on D so there won't much (if any) surprises Flores can throw at Sam that he hasn't seen before.

Should be an interesting chess match.

BTW, I think Kubiak should take this opportunity to incorporate more Checkdowns as Flores has made it no secret what he's planning to do here.
