Some are much more guilty of this than others. There are people who are way too emotional about this team and that emotion impacts how they read anything that even remotely resembles criticism.

So, when you say the Vikings shouldn't have picked Mattison where they did, they read it as the Vikings shouldn't have selected Mattison at all, and he is a horrible player who will never amount to anything.

Agreed. They may have been able to get him in the spot they selected Samia and taken Samia in the spot they selected Mattison. Either way the result is the same.

I think as soon as a player is drafted, we see them in purple colored glasses. They instantly become *gems" and locks to be amazing. Look at Bradbury, we're penciling him in to be an All Pro and eventually a HOFer already.

Kamara

D. Murray
Ridley
J. Charles
Gore.

Just some of those "sucky" RB's drafted in the 3rd round since 2005.

I swear you guys don't read and type just to work on finger extension. Did I say good backs aren't drafted in the 3rd? Actually, my statement is the opposite of that. This board needs a reading comp class badly.

Which of the backs listed is a battering ram?

Well, actually, I was listing the backs that you mentioned. I read perfectly well.

Man I thought he was hurt bad also. Was so glad to see him back right away. Held my breath!

Especially since he fumbled. I recall either AD or Cook fumbling from the pain when they tore their ACL. Looked almost like the same thing. I heard they changed the field this year, wonder if that helped. Whatever the case, it was a huge relief to see him unscathed.

Wtf, I was at the game and I don't remember that. When did it happen?

First play of the second (maybe third?) drive when the Vikings started inside their own 10. Couple plays before the huge pass from Kirk to Adam. (If I'm remembering correctly).

When it happened, I turned to my wife and said "Viking's fans can't have nice things, there goes his ACL". Then he managed to get up and was still on the field the next play.
