Vikings @ Packers GDT: Sunday, January 2nd, 2022 - 7:20 CST
Moderators: NCF, salmar80, BF004, APB, Packfntk
Musta been Dalvin Cook's career worst day. 13 yards rushing, zero receiving. Utter humiliation: His center beat his production at receiving, and his statuesque QB beat him at rushing.

Fun, and funny, fact for the game. The Vikings second longest pass completion was to one of their offensive linemen.
Solid win. STs made some progress and might actually help in the playoffs. Defense stomped them. O's got to get into gear sooner but we've got the bye! Rest some guys next week and get a bunch of guys off meat wagon and we are going to roll!
I don't understand why the Vikes didn't give Cook more than 9 carries all night, especially with Cousins out with COVID. I'm not complaining, mind you.
The Packers were rightly loading up the box with defenders. When they did try running Cook, he had very little success. Look at all those 3-and-outs in the 1st half. Before they knew it, they were down 20-3 and running wasn't much of an option.
[mention]Bogey[/mention] sorry we didn't drop by last night! But was a fun time despite losing a few toes in the cold!

7 rushes for 17 yards in the first half. That would be part of the reason. Then the 20-3 deficit would be another.

The highlight packages on the national networks keep showing the second Dillon TD, which don't get me wrong, was awfully satisfying, especially with him never going down.
But I'm still baffled by his first TD. Like I feel like he must have phased through other humans in order to emerge from the other side of the pile diving. He entered a pile. He's 250 pounds. And then he dove. He dove, from within the pile, through the bodies, and extended the ball out the other side.
Like I'm sorry, you are not solid matter if you can dive from inside an NFL pile and wind up on the other side of it. You're clearly moving through other forms of matter. The physics simply don't make sense to me.

One of these games I will have to meet you in person! I might have already just didn't know it was you

This is an absolutely awesome play!
