It's mighty generous of you to think it's OK for us to win now. :P Tanking would have done nothing for us, except possibly get good players cut for tanking. :lol:

I am SOO looking forward to that game. :lol: If we win only one game this year, it better be that one.

Re: For those who know Matt Cassel off the field, the last t

Webbfan, please stop. I mean this in the most caring and helpful way: if you continue this conversation with the position you started with, you're going to embarrass yourself. I shall do nothing of the sort, thank you. I'm not worried one bit about embarrassing myself-even if 9 out of 10 people dis...

Re: For those who know Matt Cassel off the field, the last t

WTF? Well I guess I just can't understand your logic. But if you think that the start of the game by having two conservative 3 and outs was the reason why they lost the game and discount one of the worst QB performance that I have ever seen, then knock yourself out :wink: The logic is that you buil...

Re: For those who know Matt Cassel off the field, the last t

They lost 42-14 and you blame that on the coaches for taking a "try not to lose approach" :lol: Yup. As I said then: We started the game with 2 conservative 3 and outs in textbook Musgrave fashion, and that robbed us of all momentum and confidence coming off last week. The first half was ...

Re: For those who know Matt Cassel off the field, the last t

Considering the circumstances of being jerked around I thought his flat performance against Carolina was not all on his shoulders. But it was certainly flat.

I put CIN squarely on Musgrave's and Frazier's shoulders. We could have won that game if we hadn't taken the try not to lose approach

As long as "Favre" is not used in the same sentence I think it's OK.

Don't flatter yourself so much. You couldn't play so well against Cincinnati's D in your wildest dreams. :P

Booing someone because he stinks is totally different than cheering because a player is taken out of a game after laying hurt on the field.
Which is "sickening" as Cassel's teammate said, and that applies no matter who the injured party is. Sports fans really are morons sometimes.

Re: Strike his name from the Vikings record books!

[ Bridgewater is playing better (at this point in their respective careers) than Ponder. The only thing 'bad' about this comparison is that it is a small sample size for Bridgewater. Teddy could have two more games like the Raiders game (he'd still surpass Ponder's yardage, though) and he'd have a ...

Re: Strike his name from the Vikings record books!

To be perfectly fair: Some of those comments about Ponder were also made after he has replaced Donovan "Pants..erm..football's on the ground" McNabb. Teddy's performance have been with Matt Cassel's performance as a backdrop (which would normally be faint praise, but Matt has been having ...

yeah, really. These are professionals, right? You should be able to jerk them around any which way you want without any effect on their emotions, confidence, or performance. They are cogs in a wheel, not humans. :wallbang:

Re: How many Vikings wins this year.

I said 10-6. That's only if the defense is improved a fair bit. If it improves a lot, I'd say 11 wins. But I won't be disappointed in anything from 8 wins up. I don't see us winning less than 8. We were only a few fups away from 8 last year.
