Minnesota is a good organization that has a good coach. I didn't think much of Sam Darnold but last year O'Connell got some good performances out of Nick Mullens and Darnold is better than that.

The Buffalo offense is a flat track bully. They can pile up the points against crap teams but you run into Buffalo and Leeeeeroy Jenkins self combusts.

At least he got chicken

- Geno Smith 2022 career bounce back with Seattle.
- Baker Mayfield 2023 career bounce back with Tampa Bay.
- Sam Darnold 2024 career bounce back with Minnesota.

Sometimes situation and the environment matters for people. I’ve come to realize that in real life work.

Not to forget Jared Goff too because many thought he was written off as part of the 2021 trade.

I was rooting for GB. They are supposed to win at home . Plus Minn is ahead of us in the standings.
I still like our chances sweeping Minnesota and winning at their place because we are I dome team .and it helps Goff to play in ideal weather situations.

They are supposed to get shut out at home. Fuck'm. When our divisional opponents play each other, the default is to root for the road team. Fuck those fans.

I just deleted a post saying something similar in another thread...

I think we're getting the best shot from opponents, so they also have a let-down the following week -- in addition to the physical nature of our game.

I remember that. Why delete it?

I had posted one including the Cardinals game (updated from the one I posted a week ago) just a few moments before seeing Cody's. Completely redundant to his

Iron lion,
Who do you think is our biggest threat to beat us out for the division ?
I think it is Minnesota because Darnold is ballin out and they have better defense than the pack and better offensive skill players. They are also ahead of us too.

My default is to root against who is ahead of us in the standings.
Sure I am always happy when the packers lose at home too, but not in this case.

Certainly #1 is to root for what helps us the most, regardless of who is the home team. But by default, or all things being equal, I root for the away team.

Right now I think things are mostly equal. We don't know how good anyone is, really. We see teams start hot all the time and then fizzle. So I don't know who the biggest threat is.

[Sanders Fan]

That was a hell of an ending to that game.

Former Lion KhaDarel Hodge with the big TD.

[Mainevent]

He turned on the jets.

[CGVT]

The fucking Vikings are making me root for AAAAAAAron Rodgers.

Another reason to hate those fuckers.

[Trickalicious]

Rodgers, Jones, Vikings, Jets. My hate compass is spinning.

Edit: And fuck fish and chips.

[GALion68]

Another soon to be Vikings win today. Lions will need to keep pace for a while.
