2018 Minnesota Vikings In-Season Thread

Unfortunately it’s going to cost someone else their job. I doubt they cut a 5th round draft choice. I see them cutting someone else, bringing in a veteran kicker and using Carlson as a kickoff and long field goal specialist.

They should cut his choke ass but that would involve someone admitting they made a mistake.

Due to injuries and package flexibility....there is no way that they keep two kickers on the active squad. Zero percent chance.

Well of course that isn’t true.

It's almost a guarantee. Hell....in 2016 we drafted Willie Beavers in the 4th round as an o-lineman and he didn't make the team. Point is....the hell with the pick. If the kid can't play.....you don't jeopardize your billion dollar team for that one insignificant player.

Are Carlson and treadwell fired yet? If I was zimmer I would have fired them in green bay and made them find their own way home.

I dont know how Treadwell kept getting on the field after the drops. The guy they signed from the CFL should be playing.

exactly. Once you pick a player, its now a sunk cost. Cant get the draft pick back.

At this point, they could cut Carlson and get him on practice squad. I have to believe he would clear waivers

They took him off for a while, his backup promptly dropped the pass thrown to him and almost tipped it to the defender also. What happened to wright?

Should call Beebee up from the practice squad.

they cut him for treadwell. Should have held onto Jarius.

Gotta play CFL guy

Well that decision combined with the kicker decision cost them an away win. Let's hope that isn't the difference for the playoffs or home field advantage or something.

I guess that's the positive of a tie, we didn't lose,hurts Green bay slot more as far as winning the division and getting home field. I'd imagine Packer fans are pretty upset that Rodger rule cost them the win, or at their coach for not stomping on our throats after the Treadwell pick and miss managing the fourth quarter

We decided to let Wright go and held onto Treadmill. Wright plays for the Panthers now. Had a decent 62 yard - 1 td stat line yesterday.

I don't know of a single instance where a team has used a practice squad spot on a kicker. His only chance to recover from this is with another team next summer. He's mentally shot as a Viking. Even he admitted he had no confidence by the 3rd kick. You can't just snap your fingers and fix that. He's like Chuck Knoblauch trying to throw to 1st at this point.

Spielman has had some good drafts. But he's too prideful and slow to admit when he's made a mistake and move on. If we'd drafted Diggs in the 1st round and Treadwell in the 5th, Treadwell wouldn't be here. It's dumb.

I'm sure its happened before.

Diggs would be here regardless of where we drafted him.

Of course. I'm just saying that if they were flipped, and Treadwell went in the 5th, we'd have moved on from him long ago.
 



FWIW, on PA this morning, they noted that in Adam Vinatieri's 2nd NFL game for the Patriots, he missed 3 FG attempts, including a 25 yarder...........

And the Patriots went to the Super Bowl that year, but lost to the Packers. They also started 0-2.
