Clampdown

AUTHOR: | IN: Gameday | COMMENTS: 3 Comments |

Both defenses have really clamped down in the second half.  Donovan McNabb has Brian Robison and Jared Allen both hanging off him like fungus and Tarvaris Jackson…well, he was decent in the first half outside of that pick, but hasn’t done much of anything since halftime.  Adrian Peterson and Brian Westbrook are both being stuffed right now.  The game seems like it’s going to turn on a big special teams play or a turnover.  The turn better happen fast for the Vikes cause they’re still down by two with only half a quarter remaining.

Update:  Three seconds after I posted this Brian Westbrook broke free on a screen pass and scored a 70-yard touchdown to make it 23-14 Eagles.  Barring a miracle, the Vikings’ season will end today.

I know the feeling.....they always seem to beat themselves...through crappy play calling, or key players getting suspended. or the QB throwing a ridiculous pass that looks like him and the defense are playing catch. Regardless, it's so frustrating that after 5 years we finally tiptoe into the playoffs only to get our asses kicked in the first round.....pathetic. Thanks Ziggy for another fantastic year of disappointments. Here's a thought, lose Chil

I felt the loss coming with the interception returned for a touchdown.  Damn it, why can't the Vikings surprize me for a change?
