How do we match up with the Vikes?

If we can't get a sack against that patchwork Vikings OL we're worse off than I thought.

One thing I've learned with Dallas is you have to have an efficient offense to outscore them. Minnesota is anything but that with Bradford as an. I think it will be a 28-10 game

I don't see a problem winning this one, but there is no way they only score 10 points against our D. lol

What a coincidence I have that score for us when we play the Giants.

Yeah, if Dallas has an off day.

They only scored 13 against a Lions D that is much worse than ours.

What worries me is Bradford is actually an accurate qb when given a clean pocket to work with. Our pass rush is horrible so I could see him having a pretty good day against us. Plus he takes care of the ball so I'd be shocked if we actually picked him off. He threw the bad INT yesterday but for the most part he's taken care of the ball and hasn't put his team in bad situations.

I know I'm riding Han Solo on this and everybody is freaking out about our defense but keep in mind that starting the 4th quarter, our defense only gave up 12 points and I don't know where you have cousins in your ranking but he's waaaaaaay ahead of Bradford in my opinion

I see them settling for a lot of fgs

If we do not commit a turnover and don't allow a special teams major play then we should dominate. Eventual lead by more than a score, Vikings try to do too much, nail in the coffin play and done. If they get a big kick or punt return and/or we have an uncharateristic gaffe then it's dog fight time.

You got it. Protect the ball and don't let them hurt us on special teams and this will be 11 in a row

 

[ragman]

They have no running game and Bradford only throws short passes. The Cowboys should win easily. The operative word there is SHOULD.

 

[jobberone]

Their o-line is just horrid, probably worst in the league.

If we cant get any pressure on Bradford with their sorry arse o-line, then we probably are not going very far in the playoffs.

Don't dismiss the difficulty of getting to the passer when they get rid of the ball so quickly. Pressure maybe and if we get a sack of two then fine but I'd work on getting hands up with as much push as possible, i.e., making the pocket smaller. I'd work more on coverage underneath and the importance of tackling.

I think we can hold then to around 13-20 its at the most.

 

[lkelly]

Unless Patterson takes a handful of kickoff returns to the house, shouldn't be too close.

 

[haleyrules]

The Cowboys have been much more consistent than the Vikings...any team with Bradford as their starting QB are in trouble. The Cowboys are the better club and should beat the Vikings easily. The Cowboys defense troubles me a lot.....but so far it hasn't given up too many points.

 

[THEHEREAFTER]

They've lost 5 out of their last 6. We're fortunate to get them now. Teams headed in different directions. I think we keep the train rolling by double digits.

At 10-1, coming off a huge division win, I will not be stressing about this game. I think the Cowboys will win, but if they don't, it's not the worst thing that could happen. Beating the vikes actually increases the chances of the skins making the playoffs. I don't want us to lose, but if we're going to lose one more game before the playoffs, this might be the best spot for it to happen.
