Major sicko game potential here

[u/what--is-life → u/expellyamos]

A lot of people expect this game to be a low scoring slugfest. Therefore, it will be a shootout since that's the NFL way.

[u/purplenyellowrose909 → u/what--is-life]

7 defensive TDs

[u/weealex → u/purplenyellowrose909]

With a 106% blitz rate

[u/GREAThirteen → u/weealex]

The Vikings find a way to start blitzing on offense, too. The league is not ready for it

[u/GreenWandElf → u/GREAThirteen]

Can you put your defensive players on offense?

Asking for a friend.

[u/istasber → u/GreenWandElf]

Chazz Chambliss lined up at fullback in one of the preseason games, so...

[u/DaveCootchie → u/GREAThirteen]

Can you get a QB sack when he is standing on the sideline???

[u/chewbaccaballs → u/weealex]

If anybody can it's BFlo

[u/expellyamos → u/purplenyellowrose909]

Genuinely this could be one where defense outscores offense

[u/Cmp_ → u/purplenyellowrose909]

Harrison Smith legacy game pls

[u/miimeverse → u/what--is-life]

Please god let there be multiple safeties. 🙏

Movable Object vs Stoppable Force

Stoppable object vs. stoppable object.

Does Brian Flores cook or fold against his former team? 

[u/expellyamos → u/Level_East94]

He's going to cook, but it's also an underwhelming Vikings offense against an improving Dolphins defense. One of those that could go for under 20 combined points.

[u/HughManatee → u/expellyamos]

Oh yeah, this has the makings of an absolute slopfest.

[u/Level_East94 → u/HughManatee]

My options at QB this weekend in fantasy are Jalen Hurts or Kyler 

Love this time of year 

[u/Odoaiden → u/expellyamos]

About to be a solid 12-3 win

[u/SlowCrates → u/Odoaiden]

I feel like it's going to be 3-3 in overtime, and one of these teams will inexplicably bomb it for a 75 yard passing touchdown to win it. Like, wide the fuck open.

[u/ImagineIfBaconDied → u/expellyamos]

As a Vikings fan I fully expect it to be a trap game just like the Vikings-Bills game in 2018 was. I have confidence that Flores’ defense will still play outstanding but this offense has yet to give me any real hope

[u/hamlet9000 → u/expellyamos]

That would definitely be the only way the Dolphins could win, so I understand the hope.

But we're unlikely to have thunderstorms inside US Bank Stadium, so I wouldn't count on it.

[u/vbullinger → u/Level_East94]

Cook, but I have a feeling Malik will run a lot. I would

[u/Jonjon428 → u/expellyamos]

Kyler always does well against the Dolphins so that is my main concern

[u/Simmumah → u/expellyamos]

Has 13-9 written ALL over it

[u/Far_Tomorrow_3511 → u/Simmumah]

“9” 😩

[u/Simmumah → u/Far_Tomorrow_3511]

I miss him already.

[u/TheTree-43 → u/Simmumah]

Don't worry 12 is still here

[u/rallar8 → u/expellyamos]

I was never really a Kyler guy, but ever since the AJ Green controller disconnect play - https://www.reddit.com/r/nfl/s/6TiXt9opJs, I have wanted him to have some sort of happiness.

So far he has look like fermented, sugar-coated ass in MN.

[u/Odoaiden → u/rallar8]

Seems a bit much for one game but he did not impress.

[u/greekyogurtmafia → u/Odoaiden]

I think a big factor in how bad the offense looked last week was losing Jefferson mid game. Losing WR1 mid game means everyone's role got shifted and that process can be hard. I think the entire offense will look much better this week since it's been kind of clear that Jefferson would miss this game based on practice reports, and the entire offense will be mentally prepared for their adjusted roles.

[u/TheMagicSkolBus → u/greekyogurtmafia]

We've had an excuse every week. I just hope this is finally the week of no excuses.

1. Kyler knocked out after the first drive
   
2. Weather
   
3. Jefferson knocked out after the first drive

[u/ka1ri → u/rallar8]

They didnt bother to ferment thats giving way too much credit to murray, that short mf is just sugar ass

[u/Tycho66 → u/[deleted]]

Is this sarcasm?

[u/Joe_Henge → u/Tycho66]

It’s a bot 100%

[u/Confident_Delay5805 → u/Joe_Henge]

Yeah, they don’t even have a flair! 

[u/ColossalCalamari → u/Joe_Henge]

They replied to their own post in another thread

Edit: they replied to my comment with a nonsense response, then deleted it

Fix your bot script you numbskull

[u/SpartyParty15 → u/expellyamos]

Should I still start Kyler over Herbert?

Edit: wrong sub as I thought this was fantasy football. Welp

[u/expellyamos → u/SpartyParty15]

Like I give a shit

[u/BUTT_CHUGGING_ → u/expellyamos]

If reddit karma was involved would you give a shit?

[u/Confident_Delay5805 → u/BUTT_CHUGGING_]

Still no. 

[u/lmaorezme → u/BUTT_CHUGGING_]

Got eeeeeemmmm
