Hmmm, let me try that.
Wow. It really really works!

According to ESPN. Teddys avg time per pass attempt was 2.49 secs. 9th fastest among all starters this week. Avg time in the pocket was 2.29 secs. Also 9th in the league this week. Guess that is not quick enough for some.

I was once told by a moderator on this board (via Mark Twain) that there ...

I agree completely. The coaching staff has made a huge difference as well. For some to just exclude the GM and what he has brought in is pretty unfair

Yep. But it's quick, it's easy, and it's catchy. Organizational failures require scapegoats, and those scapegoats are never allowed to receive ...

Whether you call everyone out specifically in every thread or just pick your spots, please try to be specific and constructive with your criticisms because that's far more likely to advance meaningful discussion than a snide comment about clueless, armchair beer-swillin fans. A broad, generalized ...

If you're going to call people out for what you consider their extremely uninformed opinions on how professionals do their jobs in the NFL, please try to be more specific with your criticisms than you were with the comment about this board being notorious for "armchair beer-swillin fans critiquing ...

chilly played his cards well? what on earth does that mean? he landed favre who carried him to the nfc championship (and favre actually came because bevell was here), and then he played his cards so well that he put 12 freaking guys in the huddle when we were getting ready to kick a fg to go to the ...

End of 2009 season talking about Ray Edwards


Bernard Berrian in 2009


And you're calling out other people on having a single clue. :confused:

Yep, wrong on Edwards. Everything else was accurate.

oh my :rofl:

Our defense is currently:

8th in total yards allowed
6th vs the pass
20th vs the run
20th in total points allowed (which was LARGELY skewed by the GB game that Ponder fell apart in)
13th in interceptions
15th in sacks

.....if you remember we were LAST IN TOTAL DEFENSE last year ...

But we somehow have a top 15 defense right now after playing offenses like ATL, NO, GB, DET, and NE. The ignorance behind these posts is quite pathetic and not even worth arguing

This board is notorious for this. A bunch of armchair beer-swillin fans critiquing professional general managers ...

Yes, the important takeaway of this is that if we ever fall below the Lions in popularity, we are truly sliding into the abyss of football mediocrity.

Short one from Goessling:

The Film Don't Lie: Vikings




One thing I noticed, the 4 sacks that the Vikings gave up in the first half, all happened on 3rd and long. Maybe they could max protect on 3rd down or just be more effective on 1st and 2nd down.

I remember the Darrell Bevell glory days ...

I think the defense is doing more than alright, we really struggled on 3rd down and held the lions to just 1 for 13 so that's pretty impressive. It's a good sign imo when we identified the area we struggled in and then come out and do that, megatron or not. By all accounts the defense really played ...

Grainbelt Nordeast is a great brew. Grainbelt is actually made by Schell's brewery in New Ulm, MN. I'm guessing you are referring to Premium and Premium Light - but there's a ton of other good selections to be had from Schell's. Anyone ever been to Bockfest in NU?

Funny how threads about the ...
