I always felt the Vikings were the best team in the NFC because of the stronger level of competition they faced this year a lot of people forget the Eagles, Patriots, and Steelers had some of the easiest schedules in the league this year yet the Vikings still finished with the exact same record as those 3.

I don't think he's quite an MVP caliber QB, but he's definitely a big upgrade on Foles and I believe they'd be clearly the class of the NFC (rather than the coinflip I think it is now). 

Wentz is definitely overrated. i have been saying him having the 15th ranked passing attack, vs a top 5 rushing defense and rushing offense contributed to his success. Usually, the MVP has a top 5 passing attack, because he is dealing, or in Cam's case, the top offense a few years ago for the panthers when he was dealing with his arms and legs.

Eagles were a top offense, but it was due to their rushing, not Wentz. How are you the MVP when your arm nor legs have your team in top five offensive Territory? He was the leader in TDs because the rushing and defense got him there. If his arm was getting them in the endzone, no way would they be ranked 15th in passing when he was under center.

 

We seen what happens when him or Dak are asked to win it with their arms. In KC and SEA, Wentz was asked to come from behind...couldn't do it. He is definitely the MVP when things are going great.

Their schedule is a bit skewed. They got the Packers twice, but didn't face Rodgers in 1 of them and hurt Rodgers early in the other one.

I agree though, their schedule was much harder than the Eagles and Steelers. Pats had to play our division, so they at least had to play several playoff teams.

The Packers weren't that bad without Rodgers this yet tbh.

      Nobody likes moral victories, but...

      By Mr. Scot · Posted

      I don't really like the phrase, "moral victory". I get what's meant by it, but does that mean that if you do the opposite (play poorly but win) it's an immoral victory? 🤔

      Team is looking good for next season

      By ProcessBlue2 · Posted

      I blame Evero because he is overrated. Vance Joseph created the defense in Denver that he took credit for. Wilks ran the ball down his throat and Darnold had a 103.8 rtg.  Last year we were decent in yards allowed, and horrible in everything else. Only reason? We kept giving up good field position.  He's had his choice of players to bring in since his scheme is so "complicated." Maybe he should stop trying to be so fancy like running Cover 4 on 3rd and 1 earlier and focus on fundamentals like tackling. These years of Eric Washington, Phil Snow, and Evero must have gotten you confused on what a real defense looked like. Go back and watch the McDermott and Wilks years- this dude is sofT.

      My Personal Takeaway from This Game vs Cheifs

      By Hoenheim · Posted

      I tried to make it a point in the opening post that I don't think the offense is a finished product. I think we still need more talent at WR, better play calling, catch more consistently, elimate ridiculous penalties,  and be more consistency in scoring points. I'm just saying, they look markedly better than last year imo. They have scored 20 or more in 6 games and 30 or more in 2 games. And that's particularly notable considering they only mustered 10 points and 3 points in first 2 games of this year and they got blanked on 0 points two games in a row to wrap up last season . I'd say that's a market improvement.  I'm not crowning them and saying we have a top 10 offense or anything.  I'm comparing them to themselves in recent history.
