Yeah that games was obviously going to be on Sunday.  I'm surprised they didn't have Raves  @ Bills on Saturday night and have Texans @ Chiefs as the early Sunday game.

Idk felt chiefs/texans were always destined for that Saturday afternoon game on espn. I’m guessing cbs got the option of the two afc games and took bills/ravens.

Idk the Eagles pretty much ran the Rams D into the ground in the first match up.  They were gassed and had no answer.  Yeah Stafford, Pakua and Cupp will get theirs but I think the Vikes D is better overall and the weapons are better for Minn.  Go Rams 🐏 

Yeah there's a massive difference in their defenses. Flores would come after Hurts pretty relentlessly. It's a tough call, but I think we match up better against the Rams overall.

Highlighting and underlining the same thing is just so inefficient.  

Wait til he bubbles the entire thing 

I find it so hilarious that AJ Brown - the biggest conspiracy theorist on the team - came out and said people make up stories to explain things they don't understand.

He can’t help himself with stepping in it.

Nah, they just like to make him out to be some bad guy because it's what they love to do. Completely fabricated nonsense to try and make some kind of headline. Don't believe it. AJ is a respected leader on and off the field. Bottom line. The entire organization from coaches and teammates all said it.

We could end up playing all NFC North teams for the Playoffs.

Elite trolling

Rams are the far easier matchup. Offense is cold, defense is far less tricky.

Not to mention the human element. Again, the distractions of this week. Coupled with cross country travel on a short week if the are lucky enough to advance. To come play in our stadium against those odds. And, we have already beat them.

I’m not saying he’s a bad guy and not a leader.  But some people like to catch attention and agitate.  He flies right into the turbulent air on this stuff and does it for the reactions.

Flores would run laps around Hurts. I’ll take my chances against a team they’ve already stomped out this season.

In hindsight, saying that after a 290 yard 2 TD passing performance against one of the worst passing defenses in the nfl….as if he just lit someone up for 400 yards and 4tds and silenced all the doubters…kind of shows how low the bar for his passing has become.

Saquon is in the backfield. Playoff team. Pretty damn good game. How often do people throw for 400 yards when there's a 2000 yard RB in the backfield?

I’d add also a dome team and there’s potential chance for snow in Philly next Sunday. Can say that about Minnesota too but i feel like it definitely would effect the rams

Someone let hurts know he’s got a game to play. Maybe he’ll show up this time

He doesnt do it on purpose like say the way TO did. No where near that type of person. He is majorly misunderstood and gets a bad rap, it's a shame. 

Is there some rule or thing that only I am missing on the numerous plays this year where Hurts is chased out of the pocket and slides for a 3 yard loss rather than throw the ball away which was immediately feasible?

Agreed that he’s not that type of person.  Agreed that he may be very misunderstood.  Agreed that he doesn’t deserve a bad rap.

But I disagree that he doesn’t do it on purpose.  He knowingly has said and done odd stuff that put him under that microscope.  He could have stayed out of it if he wanted.

They had too. They weren't going to make rams/vikings play on Saturday after playing on Monday night. 

They could have done Ravens at Bills Saturday night

How often do QBs pat themselves on the back as a prove it game to the media after going 290/2 against a bad pass defense?

No he’s just got a football IQ lower than his jersey #. But some of them are RPO’s so he can’t throw it away otherwise it’d be a penalty

Yeah, I think the Vikes defense is being completely underestimated.

I don't know... how many QBs have a goofy media and fan base like ours? You gonna sit here and pretend the Media wasn't up their butt about the passing game leading up to that week?

CBS probably choose that game and they didn’t have that Saturday night time slot. Fox has had the Saturday night time slot for 4 years now in the divisional round. CBS has late Sunday game for divisional round since they expanded to 7 playoff teams.

I also think what plays into this is that they didn’t wanna make the Buffalo Bills as the higher seed play on a short week

I don't agree he did things on purpose, though I wouldn't even blame him if he did the way he gets messed with in the media. F them
