2021 Miscellaneous NFL News

Dalvin Cook tested positive and is out for 10 days, which is gameday at Lambeau.

 

 

There goes the Vikings' gameplan of ramming Cook into the line 32 times. Of course they'll just do that with Mattison now. Zimmer's coaching philosophy is straight out of 1987.

 

 

As I recall, Cousins passed for about 350 yards against us a couple weeks ago. Cook had a decent game, but Cousins shredded us going repeatedly to Jefferson and Thielen.

 

Since then Thielen badly sprained an ankle that has kept him out of the last 3 games and Cook injured his shoulder, and the vikings' offense has been very pedestrian most of the time. Jefferson is a problem, but it's easier to roll coverage his way without a healthy thielen on the other side. The Vikings are so jekyll and hyde, they always find a way to be in a 1 score game - they will likely be playing for their postseason lives next wkend so I'm sure it'll be a tough game. Will make it sweeter to bury them.

 

Cook was unvaxxed, so it'll be interesting if he can get back on the field by next Sunday night...

 

As for the 49ers, their defense is enough to keep them in any game, and Jimmy g is enough for them to lose any game, too. If a team holds their running game in check the beat s.f..

I'm not super worried about SF. The only team in the NFC that I think is on the level with the Packers is the Bucs, and maybe the Cowboys. However, with McCarthy as their coach, he can mismanage his way to a loss like nobodies business.

 

Dallas' Defense has 24Ints this season. We have Rodgers. Nothing to worry about vs Dallas. They were 7-4 are on not only a 3game win streak but a 4 turnovers caused streak vs Saints, WFT, and Giants. The QB quality has nothing to talk about. Now that doesn't mean Murray and Cards beat Dallas him being the Star QB. Murray has his worts when he doesn't use his legs. Aging is taking that weapon slowly away from him. It makes his threat lessened and in Dallas' favor, as it worked for us.

Murray is 24.

 

Whos avg rushes per game is down 2 attempts or 25% per game and nearly half the yards per attempt than last season. The mentality is changing already. Throw the ball vs run with it. You've also got defenses better gameplanning to not give him the freedom to run.

Tampa is in dire trouble this week, and probably the weeks to come.

 

Godwin out for the season including play-offs.

Mike Evans out this weekend, and more than likely the week after.

Fournette out the remainder of the regular season, and I highly doubt he is 100% for the playoffs. (at least they have a capable back-up in Ronald Jones)

Antonio Brown who is able to play this weekend after being suspended, but is now questionable due to an injury this weekend.

 

They have no receiving corps left and are down to fumes. We saw what that meant last week with no legit targets, even with Brady throwing the ball. They simply have nothing.

 

Defense is still not healthy and hasn't been all season.

Antoine Winfield not playing this weekend.

LaVonte David is out the rest of the season, a HUGE blow...

 

Even the GOAT Tom Brady can't be expected to perform magic tricks when his #1 WR now becomes Tyler Johnson. :( With their top 3 offensive weapons out, it is going to be tough sledding to score points the remainder of the season.

 

Looks like it will be the Brady-Gronk show for the next 3 weeks...

 

I'm sure this makes Packer/Cowboy/Cardinal/Rams fans extremely happy knowing they probably won't have to play in Tampa to get to the Super Bowl.

 

I was really looking forward to another Packers Buccaneers showdown in the playoffs this year, but now, not so much...

A Bucs loss would be great too. And a Rams loss, which would mean the Vikings would win.

 

Whatever the Rams or Bucs do is irrelevant to us unless we lose our last two games. If we lose our last two games we have a lot bigger problem than the Rams or Bucs.

I understand that but with the way we've been playing lately, we could use all the help we can get.

Yeah, I don't think the Colts plan is for Wentz to win games by himself. He's a decent QB with a track record, which is what the Colts were looking for. He's not in the class of the guys like Mahomes/Brady/Rodgers, but he doesn't really have to be as long as JT is healthy.

Thielen looks like he reaggravated his bum ankle....bodes very well for next Sunday night

 

It was all drama apparently as he is back in.

 

Yeah, but the fact it took him a month to get back on the field and the first time he really had to do anything forcefully on that ankle led an injuy timeout means he is nowhere near 100 percent next weekend.

Josh Johnson pressed into service as the Ravens starting QB today due to health/safety protocols and Jackson not being able to play yet, and he's not done a terrible job as the Ravens are now fighting for just a wild card slot, and their defense just laid a huge egg. Joe Burrow has thrown for 525 yards.

I know it's probably better if the Vikes win, but I just can't...

 

I don’t want anything to do with them in the playoffs, especially should we stumble to #2 seed. It’s not ideal having them in an elimination game for them next week but eliminate them we must.
