Coach's film on the CMC long run....

I know there has been some debate on this. Here is the coach's film view. Safety had the angle on him on the outside. Looks like maybe he was hoping for at least a little help from Funchess in blocking. He got none.

I like his chances if he kept that outside.  Still good to see a run like this.

Maybe if he cut it back outside once the safety turned his hips inside. He might have felt the corners closest to him were gaining on him though. Really hard to say what he is thinking. Can't really criticize him from his decision.

It looks like the LBers bit hard on the counter? They flow right and instantly CMC is busting through the line on their left. They got caught flat footed and the single Safety was cheating to Funch and didn't seem to even consider it might be a run play. What was the down and distance on this play? I don't remember. But aside from solid execution, I might say this apparently was an excellent play call because the defense seemed to be caught.

    • As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
