Minnesota Vikings At Carolina Panthers - Second Quarter Open Thread

Email
PrintWe got off to an interesting start in Charlotte, with the Vikings getting a 78-yard kick return from Marcus Sherels to start things off and started at the Carolina 27. However, the Vikings did nothing on three plays, and Ryan Longwell missed a 45-yard field goal attempt to leave the Vikings with no points.
However, the Vikings got to Cam Newton on Carolina's first play, with E.J. Henderson stripping the ball and Jared Allen falling on it to set the Vikings up at the Carolina 16. Percy Harvin took it from there, as he carried the ball two times for 16 yards, the latter being a 10-yard run for his first offensive score of 2011 to give the Vikings a 7-0 lead.
The two teams exchanged punts on their next possessions (although the Vikings did mix in a really nice shovel pass to Adrian Peterson for 22 yards on a 3rd-and-16 play that helped to reverse the field position). The Panthers are currently driving, and they're in Minnesota territory after a face mask penalty moved them to the Minnesota 33-yard line. (It looked like Smith had a hold of Cedric Griffin's face mask, but hey. . .no biggie.)
As the first quarter comes to an end, the Panthers have a 1st-and-10 at the Minnesota 21, but the Vikings have a 7-0 lead.

That's what so amusing and pathetic about the Packers - they're always so worried about other teams, not their own
Kinda funny. I guess their own team is just too boring.

Touchdown, Panthers

He’s short of the goal line. Since all the scoring plays need to be reviewed, this will probably be down at the 1.

It’s nearly a tie how badly we need both O-line and Secondary help. I swear, if those aren’t the MAIN 2 areas we focus on during the off-season, I’m not even going to watch next year as it’ll be even worse.

On the upside..
Ponder looked good on that drive. Maybe that’ll help open up the offense next time we get the ball.
honestly..
today..and the rest of the season, rests on how ponder looks. He’s the future, he makes or breaks things for the next 5 to 10 years. If he can play…then the Vikings can draft around him..if he can’t….might as well get used to 3 win seasons for the foreseeable future.
The coach is instructed to challenge
95% of the time he is told whether or not to challenge or not. Very rarely do they take the initive to do so.

They might have said that Harvin didn’t completely lose control of the ball until after he was down.

Munnerlyn had his arms around the ball and Harvin’s arm was extended when his knee hit. It was pretty clear he lost possession.

i just saw a ravens highlight where mckinnie let his guy go right by and
he nailed the qb for a fumble that they recovered at the 1 yard line !!!!
that’s the mckinnie i remember.

Wish McNabb and McKinnie were on the field at the same time..

I loved the Ram's old uniforms
Those helmet swirls were cool. If always been associated with terrible football.
i dont get that just because one person is out
the whole team looks bad

Well.. its a HoF QB
although, the Pats lost their’s a couple seasons back and still got to 11-5. So.. obviously their coach sucks. Shows you who’s really calling the shots on that team.

Peyton's a robot.

They keep saying "The defense is built to play with the lead"
But that doesn’t explain having 60 hung up on you.
Peyton's not just their QB
He’s their offensive coordinator, too.

And Ive always said look at the Colts. Now its proven. Peyton Manning was the Colts

Peyton for MVP
based on how much their team sucks without him!

This season proves that Peyton is possibly the best QB to ever play.
Sorry if you don’t agree, but look at what he means to the Colts.
Without Brady the Pats kept moving. The old 49ers replaced Montana with YOung and kept it going. The Steelers lost Rapelesburger and won.
Colts without Manning = Pop Warner team.

Howie said JA had a sub par year last year with 11.5 sacks FU Howie

He said sub par for Jared Allen's standards.
Mad respect for what he said afterwards about Jared too.

The Fox talking heads are all idiots.
Howie’s actually the best one, imo, and he still says some pretty boneheaded things.
compare this season to last year
it was sub par
Who said life was fair?
When I find that person I'll beat the hell out of him
He was having a subpar year last year
He wasn’t getting any pressure at the start of the season. His sacks didn’t start coming until later on.
by REVENGE4KLUWE on Oct 30, 2011 1:42 PM CDT up reply actions
He has more sacks through
7 and a half games this year then he did all of last year, that is sub par

Hard telling when Manning might call it a career.
Would Andrew Luck be willing to ride the pines for a year or two or three before that happens?

Peyton Manning should win MVP this season.
Based on how much his team sucks without him alone.

Peyton might already be done. Neck injuries are serious.
I'd rather have a bottle in front of me than a frontal lobotomy!!!
If he takes his time with it,
he should be fine. Seems like he could have another year or two.

Oh he's not done
No way. He’ll stick around for another season or two. But Luck is almost certainly going to Indy. Lucky fuckers, getting two franchise QBs right after each other.

Makes me a little ill, I have always liked Manning, but I don't want them to get Luck, too.

Vikings need...
To start completely afresh at Saftey and Corner Back. Move Winfield to Saftey… dump Griffin, Allen, Abdullah, Johnson… look at FA and the draft to build this unit up. We need a defensive backfield that can win games, not simply hang on.
