Alright so let’s talk about the Vikings now

They’re only real weak spot on defense is their corners. They have some good DTs and Danielle Hunter is a freak. 
 

Once Darnold gets rocked a few times we are looking at Philly all over again, except the Vikings have actual weapons on offense that can put up points.

Only thing we have going for us is Kirk Cousins isn’t mobile.

Id like to call out... Cousins is a horrendous QB when he faces pressure all game. Getting to the QB this weekend is 100% the goal.

And stopping the run.  We should run the damn ball all day on that bunch, but we won't.  If this team doesn't get out of whatever funk they are in I don't think they have the confidence to win another game.

Three things will determine this game:

1) Offensive line play for the Panthers. Can we provide even a modicum of protection, give Darnold just 1.5 seconds more to react?

2) Can our D-line get to Cousins early and often?

3) And probably most importantly, will CMC be available? If so, there are benefits he gives to #1 and #2 on the list. (He changes defensive attack schemes massively, and he can extend drives giving our D time to catch their breath).

When we win, we dominate time of possession and the three things above are big, big parts of that.

Same sh*t different week. If our interior even just plays average, we win. If not, expect more of the same. Oh, and we better hope Cook isn't back (even if not, Mattinson has been balling). They could very well take a page out of the Cowboys book and go straight run heavy, which does not bode well for us. I honestly don't like this matchup tbh. Vikings have WAY more weapons than the Eagles did.

Don't think he is much of a factor in 1st game back from injury against this defense. Their backup RB did look good albeit against the Lions.

At this point we might as well try Elflein or someone else at center and see what they have, Paradis is a complete liability and seems to get worse every week. Brown needs to be in for Miller as well.
