TNF: Vikings vs Rams
LOL so do this and tell me injuries are not the biggest cause of our 5 game slide. Type a paragraph on your key board, then do it ONE HANDED and compare your WPM . If you typed the same amounts of word in the same amount of time then injuries don't matter SMH
I never said injuries don't matter, no one is dumb enough to thank that, but I am also not blind to the many other major issues this team has.
Injuries did not cause us to lose to the Eagles we where winning with 2 minute's left and the defense could not hold.
Injuries did not cause us to lose to the Falcons we where winning with 1 minute left and the defense could not hold.
Explain to me what injuries on the defense caused us to give up 51 points to Bucs and 33 to Denver.
Good teams find ways to win games when the chips are down and under Allen we always lose close game. What you fail to see in this 5 game losing streak is not the fact that we loss. I expected KC to beat us, I was not shocked that Tampa and Denver won. There is clearly a point where the injuries pile up and its hard to see a path to victory. What was shocking in all three of those games was how lifeless the team felt. Poor game plans, poor tackling, stupid penalties and overall messy football, which are all signs of poor coaching.
Look if you want to pretend like it's all injury and once some guys get back it will all be better then fine, I can't ignore clear signs of a deeper issue.
I think the lose to the Eagles has less to do with the McCoy injury and more to do with the Eagles game plan. I think the lose to the Falcons has less to do with injuries and more to do with inexcusable mistakes that cost us the game.
There is some talent on this team and they will win some games, but they are way to inconsistent to make any meaningful playoff run. At this point this is not really even up for debate, This is Allen's third year we have plenty of data to support these conclusions.
