Official Game Day Thread: Vikings @ Chargers - 9/11: WIN 24 - 17

[ThunderHorse17]

Rivers rolls out left and finds Tolbert on the edge for a 3rd TD. AND we got the lead!!

 

[SDRay]

All about winning the 2nd half.

 

[Scott the Rock]

Rivers made that TD happen with his legs? He's good

 

[paddyirishman]

you gotta love tolbert

 

[Eurobolt Mike]

Wow!

Go bolts!

 

[CoronaDoug]

Hopefully that damn Norv decision to not try the FG doesn't come back to haunt us.

 

[Brundlefly]

This is more like it, crowd and more importantly the players getting into it! SACK BY BARNES!!

 

[SDRay]

Antwan barnes!!!

 

[Scott the Rock]

Mora said 49ers again!!!!! Is he retarded? Mora....your fired!!!! Or maybe your sweet on the 49ers

 

[Brundlefly]

Unrelated to our game but anyone else notice that Cam Newton is tearing it up today? 18/26 344 yards 2 TDs 1 INT.

Hester just fumbled but it went out of bounds.

 

[CoronaDoug]

Walters rookied that return.

 

[CoronaDoug]

This is where we need a grinder. RB.

 

[Brundlefly]

Tolbert is hurt

 

[ThunderHorse17]

I swear we should never even think of trying to throw the HB flat pass route... if its caught u get shiz like that fumble out of bounds by Hester. It of course was worse watching game after game LT gettin hit in the back/facemask of his helmet for no gain no completion. 7 Yd gain is better.

 

[Brundlefly]

Mathews is impressing me. Moreso in the receiving game but not too shabby in the running game either, he just isn't getting enough carries.

 

[ThunderHorse17]

Announcers like run the ball and force them to burn their timeouts... F that we are scoring on this drive. Take the pts and give the ball back with no time left.

 

[CoronaDoug]

So we need to sign a kicker and a RB?

 

[Brundlefly]

Can someone tell me why we've run it so little? Rivers has 48 pass attempts!

 

[matilack]

So we need to sign a kicker and a RB?

Kicker? We have Mike Scifres baby. He's the franchise!

 

[Brundlefly]

Haha Rivers has got them twice this drive with the hard count.

 

[matilack]

Can someone tell me why we've run it so little? Rivers has 48 pass attempts!

We're running into a damn wall. We can't get any push.

 

[CoronaDoug]

Norv..... HA!

 

[Brundlefly]

ARE YOU SERIOUS! THATS THE THIRD HARD COUNT RIVERS HAS GOT THEM WITH ON THIS DRIVE!!! FIRST DOWN AND ENDS THE GAME ESSENTIALLY

 

[Brundlefly]

KNEEL DOWN, CHARGERS WIN!

 

[SDRay]

That's how good teams come back from adversity! 1-0 baby!

 

[boltssbbound]

They finally mentioned the Chargers D. They give up 28 yards passing and all Jim Moran can talk about is Minnesota's D. Prop to Minnie's D for playing tough, but the Chargers D was outstanding with the exception of one long run by AP. Takeo and Sanders were everywhere on run D.

 

[Scott the Rock]

Wow. Props to the Defense in this game. The score would have looked better had we not given up a special teams TD and Nate didn't get hurt.

 

[CoronaDoug]

Ugly fucking win.

 

[boltssbbound]

This year's slow start only lasted a half. We got that out of our system and now are ready to go on a run. Bring on the Pats. Phhhuck those guys.

 

[ThunderHorse17]

was this games gameplan to not give any kind of looks to NE next week??
