So Josh Allen may have a UCL injury?

How many children were sacrificed for the making of this season?

Even after he took that hit from the Jets’ defender, he slinged the ball 60 yards a couple plays after. Rapaport said that he’s unlikely to miss the game. He is undergoing further testing though.

This is the bizzaro 2022 Vikings season. He’s going to miss this game, then return the next week and dominate the rest of the season.

Until the Super Bowl rematch of course. He’ll be out that game too.

If he doesn't play, I don't know how we can assume anything other than someone sold their soul for this season. Or lots of souls.

The Bills can beat us without Allen. Case Keenum is a pretty good backup. And it's hard to win on the road. And the Bills defense has given up 21 points or more just once this season, they give up less than 200/yrds per game.

I have us going 15-2 because I'm a crazy optimist, but this is one of the losses I picked.

Maybe Satan is a Minnesotan, and Rodgers contract with the devil is finally coming due.

Yeah, the worst thing this team can do is revel in the loss of Allen. Keenum  is one of the few capable backup QBs in the league. Fortunately, there are still numerous players on the Vikings that should still remember that.

Finding out early in the week should be a huge boost though as they'll be able to game plan around a pocket passer instead of having to practice with the idea that Allen will make them pay with his legs.

Sure, but it would be much easier with Allen. 

[Vanimal46]

Josh Allen is playing. Let’s see how we stack up against the best team in the NFL. 

[Aggies7]

Defense getting gouged

[Mike Sixel]

My wife and her friends are better tacklers. I don't get to actually watch many games, how has this team ever won?

[Aggies7]

Tackling is just atrocious 

[Aggies7]

Devin singletary is running like dalvin cook should be

[Vanimal46]

Kendricks looks cooked. Getting pushed out of the way by Hines, who’s maybe 175 lbs. soaking wet. 

[Aggies7]

Blowout loading 

[Aggies7]

man we needed that pick 

[Aggies7]

The offensive line stinkssss

[Aggies7]

1st and goal are the one and we MIGHT get a field goal 

[Aggies7]

Clear defensive holding in the end zone not called. Incredible 

[Aggies7]

getting zero pressure on Allen. Can’t get to him

[Vanimal46]

HUGE turnover. Need to capitalize here.

He was down. Will never stand.

[Mike Sixel]

I'd overturn that

[Mike Sixel]

Wow

My apologies. Still think he was down 

[Aggies7]

TWO passes when you need 1.5 yards. Awful 

[Aggies7]

Turning point of the game. Just terrible 

[Vanimal46]

That turnover on downs will haunt. They’re getting at least 3 points on the drive. If not 7. 

[Mike Sixel]

I agree with going for it. I hate the third down decision. 

[Aggies7]

Aaaand that should about do it
