But... they said roughing the kicker, pretty sure? That's why I'm confused.

Why pass when you get a minimum 5 yards every rush

Nah this is a very entertaining defensive performance, in my humble opinion. :)

There's some decent penetration from the tackles. Ends and linebackers are struggling.

Was going to say they're going to call that crap but not the 3 holds in the previous 3 plays?

The Vikings deserve to have Berman and Dilfer's commentary, like, piped into their helmets.

Can we even tackle? Good lord I swear that we're throwing pillows at them and hoping they fall down.

I don't know if it's possible but is Dilfer worse than Joe Buck?

Yeah there are lots of holds on every play. We still look terrible all over the place but the holds are bad.

Preseason is about individual evaluation, and the only gameplan is designed for specifically isolating your own players in unfavorable matchups to see how they do.

That said, you guys hardly look 'feeble'.
