Not if the Lions D keeps getting banged up Fester!
They are an absolute mash unit on that side of the football.

The Lions have 12 defensive players on IR and 3 on D that are hurt.

Thats 15 defensive players, including 2 of their best in Hutch and Anzalone out.

Thats unheard of and we still have 7 reg season games to go!

Is this finally the yr the Vikings get back to the Super Bowl!?

 

[UKWildcats1987]

Vikings don't have the qb to make the super bowl.

Give me the lions or eagles. 49ers are a mess but ill take them n January over the vikings as well n the nfc.

Go look at Darnolds stats thru 10 gms (8-2) and come back and lets converse or nike, doesn't matter;

Darnolds NFC ranking:

3rd in TD passes
6th in QBR
8th in yds passing

With the Vikings stout D. Darnold doesn't have to be any better to get Minnesota back to the Super Bowl.

He is easily one of the 5 best QB in the NFC and easily one of the best 10 in the NFL.

 

[TOMCATS1990]

Steelers Bills versus the Lions Vikings would be great no eagles no chiefs

 

[HerrosHeroes]

After Sun in Chicago the Vikings will have played 6 of their last 8 games away from Minnesota yet could be 9-2 with 4 of last 6 at home.
The Lions are not home free just yet.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

what a game! Horn helmets off to Da Bears for their fight.

 

[Catfan in Tn.]

Worst 9-2 team ever. Thanks to crownmewilma.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Worst 9-2 team ever. Thanks to crownmewilma.

3 straight road wins, 4 straight overall and now get 3 very winnable games in a row in Minnesota.
Could be 12-2 headed to Seattle.
Team of Destiny?

 

[Catfan in Tn.]

Good teams shouldn’t be giving up 11 point leads with under 2 minutes to go in the game. I’ve seen this story before unfortunately.

Its the NFL.
The Vikings are far past good, they are approaching great.
This team is resilient as hell.
Don't believe me? Just watch the OT highlights.
Its the 1st time in a 1/4 century that the Vikings in a game had:

A 300 yd passer
2 100yd receivers
1 100 yd rusher

Caleb Williams went #1 for a reason.

But the Vikings just ended the Bears season in Chi today.

Now 3 straight home games? Really?
None of those teams are beating the Vikings in Minnesota.

12-2 headed to Seattle with a real shot at HFA throughout the playoffs.

 

[Catfan in Tn.]

It’s the NFL.

No it’s the Vikings.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

No it’s the Vikings.

Whatever.
9-2 is 9-2 tied for MN 7th best 11 gm start in the 64th season of Vikings football.
This team is just starting to gel and have 3 straight games at home w/each team having min of 5 Ls each.
See you in New Orleans.
Happy Holidays

Detroit is the best team. I thought it was the Bills early in the season but the Lions are on fire at the moment.

Go look at their injuries on Defense and get back with me.
They have about 16 guys hurt on D with 12 on IR including Hutchinson and their 3rd best tackler, both out for the yr.
This will be their undoing.

Viking are #2 in total D and the Lions are #3. Negligible. The difference is that the Lions are #3 in total offense while the Vikings are at #11. I'll take Detroit. Nobody playing better than them right now.

I can love the Vikings and still have concerns which I do.

All the Detroit D injuries are mounting and Detroit still has to play Buffalo and Minnesota.

Both of those games are in Detroit. Lions have already beaten the Vikings. Detroit is tough at home. I just think Goff is the better QB and their two headed monster at RB is the leagues best. Jefferson and St Brown cancel each other out. I'll give Jameson the nod over Addison though. Not really ragging on the Vikings though. Both teams are really good. I just think the Lions are better.

Darnold threw for 330 yds and 2 TDs and zero ints in the OT win in Chicago, including a phenomenal drive from deep in Vikings territory to lead the Vikes to the winners circle when all seemed lost.
Darnold’s numbers are neck and neck with Goffs after 11 games. Go to NFL.com and check it out.

 

[TOMCATS1990]

Lions Vikings Philly Green Bay Tampa in NFC
Bills Chiefs Ravens Chargers Steelers maybe Broncos AFC should be some great games come the playoffs

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Vikings v Chiefs

Rematch of SB IV exactly 55 yrs later
Both games played in New Orleans
Destiny 👿

The Vikings 1st SB 1970
The Vikings 5th SB 2025
Both in the Big Easy!

Outcome very
different!

SKOL!!!

Not a Broncos fan but Bo Nix is the truth. He reminds me of Drew Brees but with running ability. He's going to be a stud.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

The pass that Darnold made to JJ in OT for a huge 20 yd gain is why I think he can lead Minnesota back to their 1st SB in nearly 50 yrs.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Hows my Big Blue Brethren doing this wonderful morning?
You boys about ready to jump on my Viking Ship?
Still some room way in the back.
Pro football “experts” predicted 6-7 wins for the Vikings this season yet they are already 9-2 and have the next 3 gms in Valhalla v teams that all have at least 5 Ls.
Is it safe to say the supposed “NFL Experts” are actually idiots and Viking haters?
Ill hang up and ponder.
👿
SKOOOOOOOOOL!!!

 

[HerrosHeroes]

My Three Sons

Jefferson
Addison
Hockenson

The best 3 headed receiving tandem in the NFL.

Just wait until Darnold gets comfortable in this system.

Anybody know of any great steakhouses in New Orleans?

11 games in and he still needs to get comfortable with the system? 6 games left in the season. Better be soon.

Vikings land Daniel Jones from Giants as safety net!

That gives the Vikings not one but two 1st rd top 6 NFL draft QBs.

No way another NFL franchise can say that.
Maybe ever!

Vikings get Jones at the bargain basement price of just 375K for remainder of season.

Jones inked a 4 yr 160 million contract with NY just a yr ago!
Darnold-Jones-McCarthy all 1st rd top 10 NFL draftees. The Vikings have control of all of them currently. That has to be a 1st in History.

I smell Super Bowl!!!

 

[HerrosHeroes]

Vikings also sign former UK great LB Jamin Davis.
Never will forget the long pick 6 he had on Rocky Top.

 

[Grumpyolddawg]

Gibbs played in the next town over when he was in HS, was damn near untackleable. Led the state in rushing 2 years, never did figure out why UGA didn't recruit him hard, but barely had an offer and signed with Tech out of HS, ended up entering portal and going to Bama. But as good as he was in HS, never thought he would have the success he is having in the league.

Well Grump the Lions will be trying to beat Minnesota for the fifth straight time when they hook up the last game of the reg season; that will not be easy!
The only time the Lions have beat the Vikes 5 straight was when the Vikes were an expansion team 1961-63.
Just food for thought for all you Lions fans out there.
Minnesota is fed up with Detroit I can promise you!

 

[ArtLaibsGhost]

If Mahomes is 100% healthy hard to pick against them in playoffs

Ill take a rematch of SB IV 55 yrs later between the Vikings and Chiefs.
Both games will have been played in New Orleans as well.
We owe KC!

That would be a fun Super Bowl.

 

[HerrosHeroes]

That would be a fun Super Bowl.

Esp w/Chiefs trying to become first ever team to three peat and the Vikes going for the 1st time in nearly 1/2 a century and never having won one.
The whole world would be watching.

 

[BC_Wader]

It took the Bills' teams of the 90s to get some heat of off the Vikings. My team has zero shot at anything this season so I'm for the teams that have never won a Super Bowl. I think the Lions are the best team in the league, but I'll be pulling for them or the Vikings if either of them can make it to Super Bowl.

Wait, I am not a Lions fan, unfortunately a Falcon fan. Just doing a little bragging about a local kid doing well, heck of a HS player. Another local kid, Ladd McConkey, is having a good rookie season. I coached his mother, best female athlete i was around in 32+ years, and Billy Napier. Billy was the best male athlete but was the most studious, a really good guy.
