He probably just bugs me because he keeps demonstrating how good a QB and reminding me that the Vikes don't have a QB can play at anything close to his level. :(
There's that, but he's also a cocky little biz-natch. I'd love to see him get hit really hard.

I'm sure the score doesn't surprise anyone but it sure is embarrassing to look like crap 2 weeks in a row on national TV. This defense couldn't stop a decent high school team.

No one on defense looks good right now. Not one. So either we managed to pick up 11 busts or it's the scheme. I'll leave it up to someone else to figure out the probability of each option.

Another GB touchdown and we can watch Seneca Wallace do his Joe Montana impression against our sorry excuse for a defense.

God this defense is terrible. Can't get to the QB, period. Secondary not good enough to cover for any extended period of time. Allen is a non-factor tonight. GB is most likely not going to punt because we simply can't stop them 4 downs in a row.

Notice the vikings had to run it from outside the 5 on that last TD. Shows what they think of their guy. Just can't compete with the legitimate offenses of the league.

And this is why the cover 2 has to go. You simply can't just rush 4 guys against a mobile QB anymore. Your Ends get pushed up the field, the DT's get locked up and then the QB can rush for 200 yards a game if he really wanted to. Same thing with the soft coverage, the same run 5 yards out, come back 2 for the 3rd and 3 pick up gets you the first down over and over.

At some point you have to try to jump a route on that one!

WHY NOT BOTH?!

But yeah, our stubborn refusal to let go of cover 2 is gonna set us back for years when we ditch it.

Are you watching this? It's NOT the scheme. These guys are getting outplayed.
