[Banedon]

lol Luke Goedeke doesn't like that Simmons "launches" himself instead of handfighting.  He's also accusing him of holding and getting away with it...

Then Poles and co really left some meat on the bone for a contending team on a rookie qb contract. Thomas too. Could have filled their roles with warm bodies and gone after more immediate help. 

It’s not that easy to plan for a stud center retiring early

He did retire before FA and the draft, didn't he?

Yes, but it was a bad read regardless of the stupid penalty

That first INT was shocking to me...mostly because of how rarely Caleb makes a decision that poor.  And thats another reason why the 4 INTs don't bother me too much.  Every QB is going to make a bad read on occasion.  If the 4 INTs were all because Caleb was confused about coverages and made terrible decisions and got picked off, or he was staring down his first read and defenders read him and jumped the route, that would be a completely different level of concerning.  Absolutely not dismissing 4 INTs but if 1 was a bad decision, 2 were poor throwaway attempts and 1 was because he was late on a throw causing it to be deflected and picked, I can live with that as just a really poor game, but not a sign of a long term problem.

Completely agree.  The 4th INT, yes the throw was late, also appeared the defender held both of Burden' arms before the ball got to them.  Should have been a DPI.

That doesn't mean a 1-for-1 replacement is available.

That last INT was also a fantastic play by the Bucs DB, getting his hand in there for the deflection and the second player being there to grab it.

First Mayfield and now Goedeki, are the Bucs, whiners?

Looked to me like he got there a little before the ball got to them, holding Burden' arms keeping him from attempting a catch.  You're probably correct.

Yes, giving them an opportunity to fill a hole they were never intending to fill. They acquired a temporary fix and drafted a long term replacement. Not much more they could do there.

I guess i just have a hard time believing Bradbury was the best available option but I digress.

No one would suggest Bradbury was the best available player. Tyler Linderbaum was, but the Bears wound up directing their resources elsewhere. Personally I would’ve loved Linderbaum, but in the end,the big money went to Bush, Bryant and Simmons.

 

im not a Bradbury fan but im not giving up on Logan Jones just yet.

Me either.

Wasn't the fanbase similarly horsefeathering all over Trapilo at this time last year?

[Soul]

Looking for a big Vikings LOSS tonight.

[Soul]

Take that fuggin Skol horn and shove it right down their pie holes. LFG.

[Brian707]

[BigSlick]

If the Vikings can tough this one out then I’m sure they have a horseshoe stuffed up their ass and will just be one of Those Seasons for them.

but we shall see…

[We Got The Whole 9]

Buffalo doubling them up in TOP. They should hang on to win this as long as they avoid the crippling turnover.

[Soul]

I don’t know why the Vikings insist on pretending they can throw the football. But I’m all for it.

[minnesotacubsfan]

Ahhh Carson Wentz 

[We Got The Whole 9]

Very nice, this could be the dagger drive

I thought the same thing when I saw the I formation. Stick with that, that’s so old school you might break one. Nope, int

[Tangled Up in Plaid]

The Bills aren't even a good defense, the Vikings are just f'n brutal

[Soul]

I mean, they can run the ball good enough to have a shot at tying it. But no, just keep slinging it. You’ll never see a worse INT drop.
