Week 10 - Vikes @ Jags Support Group

Sounds like you're basing that entirely on feelings and talking points more than data. Which makes it ironic for you to call other people uneducated about the NFL.

I've posted tons of data that shows the Vikings are far from normal. You make it sound like every game comes down to one score. You spend more time criticizing other fans, than those fans do criticizing the Vikings. I've never seen you post any data for your claims.

As you'll see here, only about half the games come down to one score, and that doesn't factor in how many teams score meaningless points at the buzzer to make a game look like one score. And over a quarter of the games are by 17+. And a fifth by 3 TD's. The Vikings are well below all those categories. That's not just "any given Sunday", that's a pattern. The Vikings do in fact lack a killer instinct, and somehow the offensive guru is even worse.

Since 2011:

              OTHER 31 TEAMS       VIKINGS       OFFENSIVE GURU
total wins      3395              118               26
one score W     1760  51.8%        66  55.9%        21  80.8%
double digit    1583  46.6%        49  41.5%         5  19.2%
by 17+           881  25.9%        24  20.3%         2   7.7%
by 20+           664  19.6%        13  11.0%         2   7.7%

Let me know if those numbers match your feelings. They match mine.
