Word is out that Minnesota plans on going deep on our depleted secondary. They've been buoyed by Washington's success against us. The question remaining is whether or not we're able to pressure Bradford enough to cause inaccurate downfield throws. If so, they're in trouble and if not, the game might well become a scoring contest the might well make it a close call. I think Bradford lacks Cousins' ability to stand in the pocket with the poise that's necessary to ensure success within a frequent long ball format.
If our pass rush pressure is merely fairly discernable versus a Minny OL that's slumping, we're quite likely to fare well. If not, the Dallas offense might be obliged to score somewhat generously. Either way, we should be capable of competing well enough to win as long as our offensive execution holds true to form. Dallas must display the same grit that took them to their 10-1 record. I think it's likely that they will. We'll see.
I agree they are very flawed on offense and if Stefon Diggs is not full strength they are very much below average. This is their fourth center starting with Berger out, so that should provide access to a middle rush that has always been the achilles heel for Bradford. Now as to whether or not we can take advantage of these vulnerabilities with our current defensive line.
Like you said if their are no turnovers the game should be heavily skewed in our favor. With Zimmer's defense the most pressure will be on Fred, Martin, and Leary as they love to bring heat up the middle either immediately or a delay. This is basically the same defense that the Bengals played against us but with better LB's. I am expecting the same game result.
I hope Church can come in and not miss a beat, I realize that probably is not going to happen so here's hoping Jeff Heath has a great game.
I think it just might , I predicted 15-1 before the last game, and I think they might do it.This run has to end soon. You're not just going to continue to run the gauntlet unscathed like this. There will be slip ups even if this season ends up the way we want it to.
He's not far off!Haha he said Dak just manages the game and the offense goes as Zeke goes.......guess he don't watch Cowboys games
Lol especially when he thought the play was going to LUCKY WHITEHEAD LOLOLOLOLOLI like those two. Dude in the purple had some personality
There is no doubt in my mind we are the better team, whether that team plays later today is the issue. If they do show up in full force it will not be pretty for the Vikings.Sounds about right to me . . . looks like we're both cautiously optimistic -- here's hoping our faith is well founded . . .

Dak is not a game manager and it's foolish to think soHe's not far off!
This 10000% We lose this game if we play sloppy football, turnovers and mistakesIf the offense doesn't turn the ball over, we win by 2 scores.
Turnovers and poor special teams play is how we lose this game.
The video talked about how Kirk Cousins burned the Cowboys secondary.
I know Sam Bradford. I have seen Sam Bradford play. And Sam Bradford is no Kirk Cousins.
Dak is not a game manager and it's foolish to think so

I have hesitated to go back and watch that Giant game in sept as we are such a different team than the one that played that game. EE was his own worst enemy that game and the next. Dak was hobbled with his play selection as he should of been being a rookie. We are miles from that team in Sept. We are a tough team on anyone's schedule these days and no doubt have cause some sleepless nights for defensive coordinators.Exactly . . . IF the same team shows up that's been playing mistake-free and kicking tail on offense. There should be no way that the Vikings should be able to outscore us if we take care of business as we normally do. My only concern would be if we play haphazardly. That definitely hasn't been our MO at all throughout this season with the possible exception of game #1 vs. NY. Even then, the difference was fairly minimal.
