Cole missed a couple of tackles today, just like everyone else in the Vikings D. Actually, he's beginning to remind me more of a Ben Leber type player. Competent, fierce competitor, but a little limited athletically. He'd make an excellent player for depth at LB if the Vikings actually had a full set of valid starting linebackers.

Matt Cassel! He gets my game ball today. Honestly I think. He's a big reason why AD did so well. The D had to respect him. Peterson obviously was a positive and Wright made some good grabs. Audi Cole played another good game as did Rhodes. From what I've seen Cole is a solid tackler for the most part and is more often than not in the right position to make a play. I think this kids got enormous potential at MLB. With the right coaching (which he doesn't have now) he could be really good at that position.

What a crazy and great game to attend!

Positives (players): All Day 10k, Jarius Wright, Cordarrelle Patterson, Matt Cassel, Xavier Rhodes, Audie Cole, Shariff Floyd, Brain Robison.

More positives: We won!
- All the Bears fans in the dome were just devastated in the end - which made me VERY pleased.
- We will not be winless in the NFC North!
- I got to attend the game!
- The Vikings have now won ten games while only losing two games when I attend a Vikings game in the regular season (10-3 if you count the 2008 playoff loss). I think I might bring some good luck to the team. :wink:

The defensive line really stepped it up against the Eagles, which helped to alleviate some of the pressure on a group of defensive backs who should have been watching from the bench.

Robo and JA were in the backfield almost every single play. That's what happens when you can keep those big guys fresh.

Chase Ford.

He's actually a pretty good TE.

It was good to see what Greg Jennings is actually capable of doing. The guy runs some pretty routes and gets open.

Positives. Keep it positive. :)

I actually removed some remarks about P****r from my post above, because they were anything but positive.
