Eric Washington needs to...

    Look at KK. Top pass-rusher, top run-defender. Whelp, that should slow down the KK sux crowd. 

That is like saying he has been a midget among dwarves... Easy to be the top pass-rusher and top run-defender when the rest of the defense has looked like crap...

 

It seems like teams have also finally learned that you can run off tackle against us much easier than between the tackles where KK & Luke will always be, although last Sunday the entire d-line as a whole looked lethargic and were bullied in the trenches

I'm not blaming Washington yet.  Our DTs need to start getting QB pressure up the middle because this has been a hallmark of our defense for a long time.  Pressure up the middle affects everything and without elite edge rushers, our D is predicated on our DTs getting after the QB.  

 

Rivera's defensive schemes have always been heavily dependent on getting pressure, something we're not getting this season.

We saw in preseason that teams were attacking us with a lot of short, quick throws. That's continued into the season and teams are having success with it. And honestly, even the best defensive line in the world isn't gonna get there that quick.

Scheme wise, continuing to play our defensive backs way off the line isn't really helping.

So for perspective Wilks did have a top 10 defense last year so compared to that, Washington looks bad. However this defense was better than McDermotts first year in 2011 and Sean had been a DC for Philly before coming here 

Wilk's

Yards per game  317. 7th

points.  20.4  10th

Yards per play 5.1. 10-17th

Washington

Ypg-. 358   14th

Points    22.8. 10th

Yards per play.  6.0  23rd

McDermott 2011

Yards per game.  377  28th

Points. 26.8  27th

Yards per play. 6.2.  30th

    Yupperz, wishing death on a fellow human being (Over a football game to boot.)  is just soooo funny. Sick people are everywhere nowadays.

 

    As I said. No DECENT human being wishes death upon another.

what do you know from funny, eh.             and the decent police too.  holy sh!t   it must be neat to be the church lady in real life, and not understand humor at the same time.   too bad you missed the ceremony where we summoned the spirits and killed the chickens.  you were too late.  its all already in play

    It's nice that you feel so comfortable that you can make light of this. The truth is, it is reprehensible to wish death on another human being. And it is a sad day on the Huddle that you find it funny. If I had my way.  Both you and @KillerKat would get a ban.

 

    So do me a favor and put me on ignore. For this will be the last time I will converse with you. I find you deplorable.

    • 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.
