I'm fairly convinced that Zimmer planned his hissy fit from well before the game started. The quickness with which he went crazy after the rather mild William Hayes touch on Bridgewater indicates to me he planned it all along.

Then when the announcer immediately spotted his rage and linked it with a problem to Fisher when there was no such indication means they likely discussed it before the game.

I'm not sure which of the two announcers, Thom Brennaman or Charles Davis, was the biased one but you could easily see it. He later dismissed the throat punch against Foles as legal and eagerly awaited the supposed confrontation of Zimmer and Fisher.

I'd be willing to bet Zimmer told the announcer that he'd have words with Fisher after the game if anything happened. Then Zimmer chickened out and ran away so he could start making his statements up on stage without fear that Gregg Williams would punch his lights out.

Just my opinion.

Bridgewater is scheduled to play against the Raiders.

Makes you wonder if Bridgewater faked his 'concussion'. I mean he was out cold! or so we think. Pussy ass team.

I think he absolutely knows we're a threat to the same wildcard spot.. so he did everything he could to put the refs on alert.
Smart move, dick.

Exactly. All fake. I think Bridgewater actually slid into Joyner on PURPOSE!

Brady probably taught him how to do it. Did you see how deflated he looked after the slide into Joyner? Coincidence?

Brennaham, with the purple shirt. It wasn't Davis, at all.

Understand the reason for the slide an totally agree with it, but if you don't think QBs are timing things to draw a flag, you're kidding yourself.

I've watched the replay several times, and I think one's take depends on one's point of view.

I will say, Zimmer's a great coach, and Minnesota's getting better, but he can go fuck himself.

I was in the cities at the game. Happy I made it out alive.

Let's just say the vibe down there right now...Williams is probably wanted for questioning in regards to Benghazi. The dude is the boogeyman in Minnesota and they're telling their children stories about him as they tuck them in.

It was a bang bang play like Joyner said.

Bang bang is spot on! Joyner hit TB <BANG> then TB's head hit the turf <BANG>...:shades:

Thom Brennamen is absolutely horrible and annoying. I remember how bad he was announcing the cardinals playoff games and he is equally as bad announcing football.

The real question is WHEN did Zimmer know that TB was faking? Was it before or after he went on the Post-Game show circuit claiming that this was all the result of dirty play? I think we should confiscate Zimmer's email server and subject him to 7 investigations, 13 hearings, and 50 briefings.

I mean, @Warner4Prez and untold numbers of Rams fans could have died because of Zimmer's manufactured outrage!

I don't think it's conspiracy at all.... I honestly think this was part of the Vikings plan to win the game. Everything about it seemed contrived. Diggs, when he came down hard on the INT, seemed like he was flopping. I think teams try to take advantage of the Fisher "dirty teams" aura & milk it for all its worth to draw more sympathy from refs, who are already biased towards him & G. Williams. It reminds me of the "fake rage" acts by weak politicians who are trying to agitate their "base".

SKOL VIKES BABY!!! YOU GUYS SOUND A LITTLE UPSET

I'm upset about 5 things.
1: not finding a way to beat your overrated team in overtime and on the road.
2: that half of our defense didn't play, just so you crapsacks could know what you missed.
3: your delusional HC and his idiotic and inflammatory claims.
4: the refs your HC gives hand jobs to.
5: your pathetic fanbase for stalking our board 3 days after you barely won

It certainly looked sort of fake. That delayed reaction. I have seen guys go down on a sort of delay. I think Bridgewater was drawing the flag and didn't realize he couldn't come back in the game if he acted like he was asleep.

You think Shaun Hill beat us?
Let's be clear, the PI in the end zone was called. It was opi. We declined and took the int.
The 2 blocks in the back on the PR in OT. Gross missed call.
The fact that the most deliberate late hit in the game was Josephs arm being hacked into Foles neck... (But you guys play clean, right?)
The constant holding or outright tackling of Aaron Donald.

The end zone PI is my case in point about how the head ref was horrible in his favoritism: he originally tried calling it on us, before even checking with the official who actually through the flag. That's pretty telling.
