First, I wanna thanks for all of the arduous work you and your colleagues do once more this 12 months. I take pleasure in all of the content material you place out that helps me sustain with my favourite workforce midway throughout the globe (Germany).
If anybody had advised me, we might win towards the 49ers with out our 3 “-sons” (Jefferson, Jordan Addison and T.J. Hockenson), I’d most likely have laughed out loud. Greatest needs for Jefferson and Dallas Turner, hopefully they may prove all proper after the check-ups.
I want to give attention to our play callers. O’Connell already has a repute for being probably the greatest play callers within the league, however for my part, he outdoes himself this season. Jefferson will get double and triple protection frequently, and someway O’Connell nonetheless manages to get yards between him and the closest defender. It is ridiculous. However Flores impresses me much more. I favored final 12 months’s protection, however I did not assume it will be sustainable. It felt “gimmicky.” This season nonetheless, we appear like essentially the most artistic protection with out counting on “particular” performs to maintain the opposition in examine. The 49ers aren’t any joke, even with out McCaffrey, and even when the statistics do not look too nice at present, it was an awesome efficiency by our D. Kudos to O’Connell and Flores for not solely coaching these males to play each snap like their life is determined by it, but additionally calling nice video games and placing our workforce in favorable positions.
Greetings and nice respect from Germany,
Thanks a lot to your assist from throughout the globe and your sort phrases. It actually is an honor for us to work for the Vikings and do one thing we like to do due to nice followers. Sunday’s sport fell on the 10-year anniversary of my job interview right here (first day was Sept. 28, 2014).
The Vikings have been in a position to produce explosive performs with out having a few of their largest threats on the sector on the similar time. This reveals a number of the depth and growth that has occurred all through the roster.
O’Connell and Flores appear to be timing up their calls, placing gamers in good positions to make performs and constructing on the shared success.
Minnesota’s protection restricted San Francisco to a 2-for-10 displaying on third down and 1-for-3 on fourth down.
The Vikings pressured two takeaways to offset two giveaways by Minnesota, which improved to 19-0 underneath O’Connell when even or forward in turnover margin.
