I was originally impressed with how the Pats played D last week against the Vikings. Now, not so much.

Once again, the Vikings complete refusal to commit to their running game is going to kill them.
Especially when they had a couple of successful runs on their last drive.
Take these dome teams out of the dome, and this is what you get.
See Vikings last week, and this week. See Rams yesterday (yes, I know they aren't in a dome anymore, but it's LA, so it may as well be), see the Falcons well, everywhere....Even the Saints struggled quite a bit at Tampa yesterday. Drew Brees has a career 104.2 rating indoors, and a 91.4 outdoors. He's 6-0 in the playoffs at home, and 1-6 on the road for that very reason. Nobody needs home field advantage more than the Saints.

LOL, let me guess. 4th and 1, they finally run the ball, but they do it with Murray instead of Cook. It's laughable.
Zimmer refuses to recognize the talent that Dalvin Cook is. Here comes Murray on 1st and goal from the 3.
I am 1000% positive that if they just gave the ball to Dalvin Cook 4 times from the 3 yard line, out of an I formation with a lead blocker, they score easily.
We'll never know because it looks like DeFillippo doesn't have that play in the playbook.
Booger is such an idiot, I can't even take it. If they kicked the field goal there, Zimmer should have been fired on the spot.
Zimmer just can't do it. He can't just run the ball like a normal person. Here they go again, jet sweep, holding call, 1st and 12.
Booger and Al Michaels teaming up would see an endless stream of calls for FGs.
Make it a two possession game! Come away with points! Etc.

Wait, they are saying Wagner was on the line of scrimmage? The refs completely missed that call. Not only was he about a foot behind the rest of the guys on the LOS, he used his teammates for leverage. He put one hand on each of his teammates shoulders and used that as leverage to hurdle the line, which is not allowed.
Isn't that a personal foul for leverage on the field goal block too? Which would have been a first down for the Vikings? Game changing no call.
Yep. The worst part is they actually saw it and threw the flag, then someone else came in and they picked it up.
Not sure the announcers even noticed the play until the 5th or 6th replay...they are beyond horrible.
Sure, don't let us in on Wagner's conversation with his teammates talking to him about putting his hands on his teammates shoulders.
Yep, I noticed it immediately, and was typing up my post when they finally decided to go take another look. They're too busy telling us for the 599th time how Wagner is the last member of the Legion of Boom.
