Match Day Thread Divisional Round

my preference will be Eagles, then anyone other than LOAT Brady's Patriots.

 

Vikings should be too good defensively for Foles. He only managed to put up 15 points on a worse Atlanta defence, but it is a one off game and anything could happen. If you told me right now that the Vikings will score 20 points on Sunday then I would be pretty confident that they would be the winners. A lot depends on whether Rhodes is fit enough to play every snap. Sendejo will definitely be out,

For any other team I would also say that that win against those ****y Saints after the 2009 game, being potentially at home field for the Superbowl and the whole Keenum thing would be signs that it is written in the stars for that team to make the Superbowl and go on to win it. This however is the Vikings and I refuse to get my hopes up whatsoever. Feel much more confident predicting them to get blown out by a Blake Bortles led Jags in the Superbowl than anything else, or whatever the most humiliating option is.

 

Trust me, We will not lose to Vikings due to our offense or due to Vikings Defense.

It will be our Secondary or mindless Special team's turnovers which could cost us.
If our Secondary & Special teams hold up, Foles (not a fan, but still) will be alright.

I am not too worried (still worried) about Secondary due ot the fact it is Case and not Drew.

But funny thing, if Jags don't win - i would rather Vikings win and do LOAT a solid.
Because our secondary will be toast against one man wrecking machine Gronk.

Cannot stand Patriots with another ring.

 

Wether you like them or not you've got to admire the fact they've been at the top in a sport where everybody has the same spend for nearly 2 decades.
Wouldn' t be to sad if the Vikings ended up as Superbowl winners as it' s massively overddue

 

Will have to see how it plays out, it should be close anyway.

Agree about the Patriots, cannot stand them. Partly because of the cheating things but mainly because every other NFL fan I meet in the UK supports them because they have England in the name, then laud it over you as if that is some actual connection and they haven't just quickly googled who the best team around is at the moment.

 

Ooh touchy

 

That's a bit rich coming from a Saints fan.

 

Are you talking about Saints the NFL team or Saints the football team?

 

NFL

 

No I don’t follow them. You would be right if I was moaning about the Patriots I’d i did though

 

Think Phily v Vikings tonight will be as tense as it gets. An absolute power fest. Running D the key for both sides.

The Vikes tight end might be the key player- he impressed me recently and might be Case’s go to man to get downs in an attritional game.

 

Go Jags !!!!!

 

Jags really taking it to the Pats. Gonna make Brady and the Pats have to pull out some stops.

Interesting second half ahead!

 

Bill & co using their cheat card effectively. Poor jags. Flags flying

 

Poor game management from Jags not burning clock

 

Flags for 88 yards. Refs yet again best players for LOAT and co

 

how did the jags lose that and why is doug marrone the retard getting bortals to pass. Just get fournette to run the football and eat the clock retards

 

I dunno guys, you can’t constantly run the football- the Pats aren’t stupid and would eventually read the run and minimise it’s effectiveness.

Penalty count very high in favour of Pats again but I don’t think they were lucky today- they just had that extra dimension/variety that Jags haven’t yet developed. What a D those guys have built though.

Can I just add though that this kneeling **** is one of he few things that grinds my gears about the NFL- should be made to play to the end.

 

The kneeling should be allowed it' bloody ridiculous.
Felt sorry for The Jags there if they had a top QB and a couple more quality players on offense they' be some team.
