[QUOTE="Hobbes09, post: 251257, member: 1750"] First, do NOT take ESPN's words on players, especially when they're using cut up quotes like they did with Woodson. ESPN likes to play sports like a Soap Opera. As for this game, it's shakey. Very odd. The lack of penalties against the Vikings was incredibly noticeable. Notice how the only ones called were when they broke across our OL. You may say it probably would not have changed the outcome, but I disagree. Nearly every other play in the first half was a penalty, usually holding. If you don't think any of those 10 yard penalties would have stalled even one of their TD drives then, sorry, but you're being kind of dense. As good as we ran, there's a reason we abandoned it, that reason being time. Down two touchdowns in the second half you need to start throwing the ball more. I'm also going to hold off grading the defense. Yes, they looked terrible against the pass, but after they got zero pressure on the blitzes (for some strange and unusual reason) it was all about coverage and by that point Favre knew all he had to do was sit there and wait until someone came 10 yards loose. Not hard with basically a missing SS. I hate being like this, but the officiating destroyed this game. Not only did it extend multiple scoring drives for one and only one team, but it also completely changed how our defense approached the game. I mean, does anyone really believe the only penalties Minnesota committed were a pair of unabated to the QBs in the fourth quarter? Or that we didn't blitz once past the middle of the second quarter just 'cause? [/QUOTE]
