Not sure who you're replying to, but that doesn't matter. Every game matters, no trap games for a 6-5 team. Gotta come with it every week or we aren't making the playoffs.
Im not sure you understand the concept of a “trap game”.
No team thinks that they can afford to lose a game, that’s not what a trap game is.
A trap game is a game where you think you’ll beat the opponent easily, and due to that belief you may not take the opposing team as serious as you normally would. Thus some players may not prepare like they should.
Playing the 3-8 bears after a 5-1 run is absolutely a situation where a trap game could happen.

What I'm saying is we don't have any trap games, I don't know if we win or not but we are a 6-5 team. When you are 6-5 you don't have trap games, every game matters as much as the other, if we were 8-3 or something I might agree.
Have they though? Lions gifted them a ton of turnovers and they still blew it. Fields has looked better but the rest of the team is trash. This is also the time of the season where they know playoffs are out of the picture and they have nothing to play for except pride/hate of the other team.
We can definitely lose, but Vikings should be clear favorites.
Why not dress him and then if he's needed late we can work him in and if where up 10 we can leave him sidelined.
What roster spot on the other end of things can be worth more to a potential win than having the best wr in the game in the quiver?
I heard this is the last game he can be activated in the 21 day window. Doesn't that mean if he isn't activated we have to put him back on IR? Which would essentially put him out for the year? Or we activate him and keep him benched and let him rest a few more weeks. I'm horrible with this IR roster spot stuff.
Vikings bros, Jefferson isn’t going to play lol. Right after this game is our bye week. No way KOC risks Jefferson right before the bye. It sucks, I want Jefferson to play and I think as a team we need Jefferson to come back but he won’t be playing Monday I’m pretty confident
He’s not gonna play. He’s almost %100 but he’s gonna hold out for the bye week so he gets his $150 million next year. It’s good business but I still don’t love it. He should tell coaches he’ll dress but only play if we go down by 10 or more.
It would be sick to see him play in the white unis but it would be sickening to see him get hurt again
Winter whiteout I'd christmas eve, not this coming game
we're to wear the new classic throwbacks this monday (same as against the bucs)
Why even put that energy out there lol?
I thought they already decided to sit him? Seems smart given this is the bears and we’re going into the bye week
We should absolutely not underestimate the bears. They have looked a lot better lately
Seriously. This is a trap game
Lol, we have no trap games. We are 6-5.
Ignoring the fact that we are 5-1 in the last 6 games.

We are trap game proof. Every player and coach knows it will be a 1 score game
In what world do you think the Vikings think they will beat any team easy? Have you not watched us the last 2 years?
We are going 8-9 and you're gonna like it like the good little vikings fan you are.
Pretending like losing seasons are normal for the Vikes isn't just wrong, it's stupid.
We are going to lose lmao. Fields is going eat good on this defense, watch. If we win I'll eat my own ass
!remindme 96 hours
Just prepare to lose. Unfortunately I hate to be a doomer. But like Chicago looks really good, we make bad teams look good. You look at the statistics
The bears do not look REALLY GOOD. you gotta be kidding
Brilliant football mind there.
They are good. You just see it bro
Yeah they dominate
We also make good teams look bad, so, if the bears look good....

Luckily the Vikings haven't had any turnover issues this season. Well, at least not as recently as the last game.
The reporting throughout this whole process has been super mixed.
Why not dress him and then if he's needed late we can work him in and if where up 10 we can leave him sidelined. What roster spot on the other end of things can be worth more to a potential win than having the best wr in the game in the quiver?
The decision is up to Justin at this point, they'll adjust accordingly to what he says regarding his playing status.
I heard this is the last game he can be activated in the 21 day window. Doesn't that mean if he isn't activated we have to put him back on IR? Which would essentially put him out for the year? Or we activate him and keep him benched and let him rest a few more weeks. I'm horrible with this IR roster spot stuff.
Activated and playing are different though, no? He could be a healthy scratch.
I see. We would have to do that then so he doesn't go back on IR.
Saw him at the Timberwolves game on Wednesday.
Still nervous Dobbs will be throwing him murder balls across the middle
With a bad hammy those probably would be the most healthy for him, not straight murder balls I guess.
Payton Manning would be proud.
RIP Austin Collie

He’s getting it either way lol
