Re: What now? A golf analogy

As an aside to this, I wonder why teams that don't have a clear-cut starter don't switch QBs out more in game. Not as a punishment for not playing well but as an actual strategy. QB by committee where you rotate them in based on their strengths for a given play. I've wondered the same thing at time...

I agree, the team sure seems to be bitten by the injury bug this year.

If they keep winning I'm going to have to pick them eventually... :smilevike:
NO!!! You have to pick us to lose every game and give up 30 or more points every game.
Please oh great VikingLord.. It's all in your capable fingers. :wink:

The Vikings defense politely said "Shove It" to your prediction. :govikes: :lol: I wasn't able to watch the game, but the stat line looked pretty ugly (and not in favor of the Vikings): First downs - Bears 18 - Vikings 12 Total plays - Bears 65 - Vikings 55 Total yards - Bears 275 - Vikin...

I'm no CPA/Financial guru, but I would concur with his assessment!

Cliff, I'm so very grateful that you've given us a place to come, chat/complain/cheer about the team we love... At least on most days. I know that not many of us know each other, but I hope I'm not alone in saying I feel like this is my Vikings family. We have our ups and downs, we get annoyed with ...

Re: Pick Four for the 2023 Season

I would like to play, but I always get distracted and start to miss some weeks. Someone has to finish last, so when you start missing weeks, you save others from that spot. Pretty sure even if I played every week, someone else missing a week or two wouldn't prevent ME from getting last!! :rofl:

Re: Dalvin Cook's Future

I know we'd have all complained to get low level draft picks, but I wish we would have been able to get something. Why does it seem like the Vikings can never seem to be the beneficiary of the types of trade deals that other teams can get?

Re: Let's Make Another Hockenson-Type Trade!

Pinhead Kewsi claims to be the smartest GM. Can you quit with the calling people names? I know you're not the only one, so I don't mean to single you out... You don't like him. You don't like his decisions. That's fine! But... For me, calling people pinheads really turns me off, and it makes me thi...

Dish me up a heaping helping of that crow please!

I have to say it... I was not in support of signing Kirk Cousins this off-season. I thought we'd seen what Kirk had. While he could be brilliant at times, he was also maddeningly inconsistent. There are still some "bad Kirk" moments, but to me it seems that it's a bad play, maybe two, perh...

Re: Is 3rd quarter scoring a meaningful statistic?

I have been seeing a lot of places lament the Viking's 3rd quarter scoring this year and I had a few thoughts about that statistic.I am of the opinion that it is not all that meaningful, because it is based on the idea that football is a game played in 4 quarters. I think it is more appropriate to ...
