Ahh, yes. There it is

Twins > wild > vikings?

Don't know anything about basketball these days so... maybe the Tpups fit in there somewhere around the Twins and Wild?

Couple of years ago they would flag you for excessive celebration. Now it’s a dance party in the end zone.

Right. I don't get it. If an offensive player and his teammates did a tenth of that theyd still be called today. But apparently it's fine for the defense?

Man , I really enjoyed the packers game yesterday and this game is great too!!!
 
Obviously the Oline was excellent and when Kirk gets time he’s able to carve up even good defenses. Really liked the whole thing. Very strange this team can do that after the abysmal idiocy we’ve witnessed so far this year

Kirk definitely played in front of the best line performance of his Vikings career, but he did a phenomenal job getting the ball out quickly too. Dalton Risner may change this team dramatically.

The schedule is super favorable and we have a ton of winnable games in the next 6 matchups.

Green Bay
Atlanta
New Orleans
Denver
Chicago
Vegas

Before we end with: Cincinnati, Detroit x2, and Green Bay.

Tons of winnable games to make it interesting.

I texted my son that last night was the best pocket presence I had ever seen from Kirk. I don't know if it was luck, or the center of the line was a bit less porous than usual, but he seemed to make a lot of good decisions with his feet, and timing. It's amazing how he just doesn't seem to break down with age.

Amazing what not being terrified of getting murdered every drop-back does. Ingram and Ezra f***ing suck, so this was much needed,

Not true. That rule was removed several years back. When Diggs and Thielen were here with Rudolph, our offense was known to do full group celebrations like duck-duck-grey duck (Rudolph screwed it up though by saying Goose), and leap frog etc.

The only thing they will flag you for now is using outside props or being suggestively explicit etc.




That's why defenses do this, because the rule was removed. Offenses just don't do it as frequently because they have lost creativity since everyone wants to do the griddy now.
 
I do miss the excessive celebration penalty, although that duck, duck, grey duck was a classic. lol If I were asked to do this as a team mate I am not sure I would participate... Perhaps this is why I am alone... And not on a team. Well, anyway, what a game last night! I can't believe the Vikings actually won in prime time. That had to be one of the best games they have played after dark in my lifetime... Well, it had to be top five.
