Please use this thread for pre-game, in-game, and post-game discussions about the Birds - Vikings MNF game.

I'm going to miss the beginning of the game, so I'll need some of you to carry the thread along at the start.

Go Birds!

We have MNF games kicking off tonight at 7:15 p.m. and 8:30 p.m. EDT. Have we ever had overlapping MNF games before?

What a crap offensive PI call against Smith. That negated a first down. Now Minny has the ball back.

I dig the new end zones. Was never a fan of the old Eagles logo but like the new

While Joe was not wrong in saying that the first quarter was dominated by the Eagles, I think it might be just as appropriate to say that the first quarter was dominated by the refs.

These zebras are calling it tight right now. Without the penalties on the second drive they were humming. Heck, they’re still humming. And the D holding the Vikings to two 3-and-outs is nice. Need to score more though. Jefferson can score really fast

Minnehaha methodically marches down the field and scores a TD. Cousins 6-6 on that drive. 14-7 good guys

Really like what I see. Methodical drives, Quick up-tempo drives, less AJ brown no problem more Slim Reaper, great complimentary running game….. this O looks really REALLY legit.

EDIT: OH, and Hurts is going through his progresses and going to whoever is open. 5 yds on a 3rd and 10 doesn’t matter. Take what you can get, no pressure, love to fight another day. Protect the rock.

Jalen has looked great tonight. I have to give him mad props. He’s finding the open receiver and being efficient.

That FG drive before the half was a work of art.

After the INT, I saw that Slay gave the ball to somebody in the stands. LOL, it turns out that he gave it to The Beard -- James Harden.

damn, Birds have a FG blocked, and it's scooped up and the Vikings nearly score on it (got it to the Birds's 30). Arryn Siposs (the punter, who is also the holder) made the TD-saving tackle.

The Eagles may be dominating the game, but the Vikings special teams seem to be winning that portion of the game.
