DLmen with total pressures, Vikings have 2 ranked in top 5

In fact, now that I thinking about it, their DL is probably just a good as Saints.......didn't handle them well at all.
 
Dak better move in and around the pocket and not spin out into Tyron Smiths ankle.

I'm also thinking more screens and draw plays would ease up those rushers, but I feel like our draw plays that would eat defenses are nowhere to be found.
 
O-line will be tested. Dak as well if they get past our O-line. Zeke if he can find and get through the holes the O-line may create for him.

Either way, this is not a good matchup :facepalm:. This adds to my list of worries. Last time we went against a dominant D-Line, we got shut down hard (Saints).
 
WE WILL SEE. They will not be top 5 Sunday.


I don't think big Tryon, Martin, Frederick, Williams or Collins are worried about any opponent.


:huh:drinking this early? or the wrong key.......LOL

Yep, you guessed correct. I though t it would be great to start the day with grilled a ribbbeye with Jim Beam. The keyboard is one big blurrrrrr. I can't tell the differnce between the peoidss andcommas.

Total pressures is meaningless. 50 pressures when your opponents have attempted 327 passes is...not particularly good. Hunter has played 496 snaps...DLaw has played 293. I'd sure as heck hope that Hunter has way more pressures.

Win rate, is way more telling, and nobody is better than Dallas. It's not even close.



Using round numbers, 50 pressures on 300 pass attempts is only a 17% win rate. Hunter is probably at, say, 275 attempts...which is only a 20% win rate.
 
both excellent players and the best way to slow down a pass rush is to run right at it 25 + times.

Luckily for us we have the ultimate pound the rock player. Rushing the passer after you have had to tackle zeke for 3 quarters is difficult. like columbo said in that sounds from the sidelines from monday "Keep running right at them, thats the gameplan"

..so how many opposing NFL teams have bookend pro bowl caliber OTs like the Cowboys do in Smith and Collins (who appears set make his first pro bowl this year)
- best plan is to pound an run them down with zeke/pollard

Last time this happened we lost and every one blamed Garrett for supposedly game planning as such.

How about we follow the patriots way and go after their weakness or use their aggressiveness against them?
 
Notice who is number 5 on the PFF list. How did he do against Collins a couple of weeks ago?

Need to run at the DEs to slow down that rush. Elliott will need to be fed early and often, control TOP to keep Cook and Diggs on sidelines. Cousins will get his yards but Cowboys will get TO opportunities.

Vita Vea is huge 1 tech with win rate as good as Maliek.

Crazy.
 
Gotta throw quick passes to Zeke and Witten and hope the Vikings don't take it the other way for house calls.
 
Maliek about to get paid. I figured hed have his best season lookin for that money lol.
