    Good takeaways from the game:

    -The experience our youngins are getting is going to be incredibly valuable. We have DBs playing the entire game when entering the year they'd have only played in dime packages and less than 10% of snaps....Demetri showed incredible promise against arguably best receiver in the game. Brice has the knack for Safety play and a hardheaded nature about him I love.

    -Our young receivers are also getting involved by default of injuries...Davis, Janis and Geronimo all 3 played pivotal roles yesterday, and throw in 3rd year Adams finally showing his promise we all thought but was shattered last year.

    -Our O-Line and D-Line/Backers are what is keeping this team afloat with head above water.

    -Our RBs can't get worse, and if Ty Monty could have played it would have helped tremendously. Jackson showed flashes and Knile I still think could serve as a good 2nd or 3rd back with good hands.

    -Mike is having to change up his traditional NORM for now over 5 year playcalling because of all the injuries...this is a good thing.

    Negatives:

    -Lost
    -Youth shown through on some brain lapses in the secondary
    -Tackling suffered form a little bit and like always will bite you.


    ULTIMATE takeaway:

    We are a good team that is banged up...IF we can get healthy I can see this team seriously making noise and damage in the playoffs. That is a HUGE "IF" though.

    Why oh my do they put a slow footed middle linebacker back in coverage and ask him to do what he has demonstrated over the last two seasons he simply can not do?

    Yes Ryan, great kid but I have watched him fall down in coverage and not be within 10 yards of the target receiver on a 15 yard route.

    HE'S got awesome instincts and nose for the ball...but not quickness for coverage at all. It is one aspect of his game that just isn't there.

    The Vikings O-Line reminds me of the worst brand of single ply toilet paper you can buy.

    And the only way Asiata is scoring is when his finger breaks through that cheap single ply!

    Oh see playing on the road in the NFL doesn't always go according to plan.

    Same way I felt Sunday with the pack/Falcons.

    This o-line has to be the worst in the league.
    5 sacks. What comment is Zim going to come with the o-line this week after calling them soft last week.

    Can't help to notice you were nowhere to be found here last night, or any other time the packers choke.

    That is not true, and I was busy stacking wood last night out there with lantern light getting it done so I can hunt.
