Vikings over-come 33 point deficit to clinch the NFC North
The Minnesota Vikings are NFC North champs!! I couldn’t be more impressed with the no quit in this team. Down at the half 33-0 and they turn around and win 39-36. This week I’m going to look at the tale of two halves. In the first half, not one thing went the Vikings’ way the…

49ers “shipwreck” the Buccaneers
Brock Purdy set a new record, becoming the first rookie quarterback to beat Tom Brady in his first NFL start. The Buccaneers came out looking okay, but that quickly went downhill, connections were overlooked, they couldn’t protect Brady, (apologies for Al-Shaair ) and though the defense did okay it just wasn’t enough. The 49ers had…

Brock Purdy out preforms Tua?
In the time it took me to type that title, the dolphins had already scored. Quite literally, first play of the game, touchdown dolphins. So we get the ball, and our first play of the game, our quarterback broke his foot. This is very unfortunate as that was our second string qb; our first broke…

Vikings win 10th game in nail biting fashion
Week 12 sees the Minnesota Vikings take on the New York Jets. Last week the offense rebounded and the defense did enough to win the game. This was, as usual, a very stressful game, and the Vikings came out on top 27-22. The first quarter for the offense was rough, to me, it seemed like…

Final score was 23-17 Browns win in OT after both teams possessed the ball.During this matchup, two key Bucs players sustain injuries which will most likely seem them miss some time. Antoine…

49ers shutout the Saints
The offense wasn’t looking too hot, the magic we witnessed last week has dropped off quite a bit. Not really sure you could pinpoint the problem though, there was a lot of catchable passes that weren’t caught, there were a lot of open receivers that just weren’t throw too. We had a completely open CMC,…

Gophers keep the Axe for the 2nd year in a row.
In the most played rivalry in college football, the Minnesota Gophers took on the Wisconsin Badgers. This will be the 132nd time they will play. After the Gophers’ loss last weekend they were eliminated from the B1G title game. The Gophers came up big and won today 23-16. It also seems we have found our…

Offense bounces back as Vikings win in Primetime 33-26
In a game against arguably the best defense in the league the Vikings needed to show up and show out, without their starting LT. They did just that on offense and Kirk had an amazing game. The defense still has some work to do for sure, I just don’t know if Ed Donatell is the…
