Re: Draft Day Discussion
Don’t disagree with much if anything you stated. I’d add that we did decimate next year’s # of draft selections by going on this “spending spree”. I don’t necessarily think that’s a bad thing , and I’d assume KAM has some idea what he’ll do to increase # of picks next year, beyond our supplementals...

Re: What now? A golf analogy
The Saints do that with Hill. I think a team's willingness to do something like that comes down to who the alternative QB(s) is and what, if anything, he brings to the table that is different than the starter. But if a team has a viable alternative at QB who does present a different set of challeng...

Re: What now? A golf analogy
I remember during Zimmer's last season, he was asked at a press conference why he wasn't starting Mond, and his answer was "because I see him every day at practice". Seemed a bit harsh at the time, and knowing what we know now about Zimmer, was probably a tainted statement. But overall, th...

Re: Bears at Vikings MNF
Yeah, as said by others, for all the speculation that KOC wants a more mobile qb...I question if he can actually design an offense around one. He is showing a lot of stubborn square peg round hole traits. Dobbs is a bad fit if KOC is going to call plays like it's Kirk back there. Dobbs is a journey...

Re: Bears at Vikings MNF
In the Vikings at Broncos thread, I stated "Everything I have seen from him so far leads me to believe he is going to be a turnover machine." (speaking of Dobbs) It was in the Denver game that I knew that this kind of Dobbs game was inevitable. You can never throw the football, in the NFL,...

Re: Who Starts?
I dont expect him to win many, if any at all. I want to see what we got. Dobbs has shown many teams what he has, and now has showed the Vikings a small sample, Im not impressed. Nor do I think we make the playoffs. If Dobbs keeps throwing the ball up for grabs, I wanna see Hall. Dobbs looks like he...

Re: Vikings at Broncos
Honestly I think this is the first game they really missed Cousins. I’ve said all along to fellow buddies that Dobbs makes me nervous in the pocket. He seems to hold onto the ball forever and doesn’t do anything until someone is right on top of him. Dobbs can’t make anything close to the throws tha...

Re: Chiefs at Vikings
The "Make Up Rules As You Go" League. What happened to "You must maintain possesion all the way to the ground"? If a receiver catches a ball, hits the ground, and the ball pops out, it's incomplete. When Kelce catches a ball, it's a catch as soon as he touches the ground??? Somet...

Re: Chargers at Vikings
Yes, I'm not happy either, BUT...the Vikings are not REALLY an 0-3 team AND they are still the best team in the division. They have not played well but are one play away in each game from being 3-0. KOC and Cousins did not handle the end of the game well, but I'd be 100 times more concerned if we ha...

Re: Game day comments: giants/vikings
I can't say I agree, Cliff. I highly doubt that KOC told him to play with CBs 10 yards off and allow mediocre QBs look like Johnny Unitas. Why is that hard to believe? It's been the same all year and I haven't heard any complaints about Donatell going off script. I've only heard KOC say Donatell di...

Re: Game day comments: giants/vikings
Why will next team's record prove anything about this year? Different year, different team. Joseph has a job to do. Kick XP's and FG's. He kicked a 61 yarder. He did his job. How is that a fluke? Sometimes you miss some, sometimes you make some. He made that one. This whole "luck" and&quo...

Re: Game day comments: giants/vikings
I guess we see things differently, I would say the 61 yard was a fluke, what is our kickers % made from over 50? Sure we have some talent but you’ll never convince me this is a 13 win team, next year’s record will probably prove this. If you keep the same guys around year after year and only have a...

Re: Game day comments: giants/vikings
I guess the reason this loss bugs me so much is because I honestly believe that this team had enough talent on field to at least make a better run at the Super Bowl. That's not to say that they didn't have weaknesses. Of course they did. Are some of players older and slower than you might like. Of c...

I'm just disgusted by this performance. I can't even comment beyond that.

Re: Week 17: Vikings @ Packers predictions
Yes, I know it's a divisional game, and it's the Packers. Yes I know we usually split the season series with them, but I will be mighty upset if the Vikings lose this game. I mean, my goodness, they are OVERDUE to play a complete game and if they do, they will win this game easily. They have an extr...
