Next years QB

NFL: 3 of 4 conference championship teams start
backups or journeyman and the 4th starts a QB who gets paid like a tier three starter
Vikings fans: OMG we need to make the 12th best QB in the NFL the league’s highest paid player or we’ll never be successful

They likely talked to him during the prior window when Shurmur was being interviewed. We didn’t talk to anyone during that window because we didn’t know we wouldn’t have an OC.

Re: Next years QB

This is not the year and these are not the guys to break the bank on. This is one of those weird situations where the evidence tells us to do exactly the opposite of what everyone is suggesting. 3 of the 4 teams in the conference championships had cast off 2nd rate quarterbacks. The logical response...

Re: It seems like Vikes lost to lot of SB champs in NFC fina

I think they’ve lost six and four of them won the Super Bowl. Atlanta and the Giants lost.

Re: A Philadelphian Apology

The whole problem with these apologies is with one simple question: "What is the 'majority' going to do to curb the violence and egregious behaviour of the 'minority'?" And that answer is more than likely going to be nothing. Your team is not going to implement rules or regulations to cut...

My problem with the bad apples argument is that other fan bases are self policing. Do you think people from New Jersey drink more than Minnesotans and Wisconsinites? We don’t have these problems because the non-idiots have some decency and they shame the idiots and intervene on behalf of visitors wh...

Re: Vikings Masters of Building and Destroying Hope

While not quite as cool as hitting for the cycle, we’ve now lost an NFC Championship game to every team in the NFC East. Now none of them need to feel like the only kid that didn’t get an X-Box for Christmas. So there’s that.

Re: NFC Championship Reaction Thread

Zim has to go. I know this is tough because he’s a likeable guy and solid during the regular season but deep down everyone knows that I’m right Completely disagree. Find me a better coach out there right now than Mike Zimmer. Not gonna happen. I can understand if we went 4-12 but we won the NFC Nor...

Re: NFC Championship Reaction Thread

It sucks, but honestly - I don't think we could beat the Pats (if we can't stop Foles, how do we expect to stop Brady), and I'd rather not watch the Vikings lose their 5th Super Bowl. Last week was great when we won, but honestly... 1) We needed a miracle to beat the Saints (while we were at home);...

Re: Next years QB

To say we should let case walk and let teddy take over is a joke. You have trust in Teddy who’s done nothing special with this team and we have no idea if he can’t even play worth a damn but we wanna give up on the guy that brought us to the NFC championship? Seriously? I don’t get it. I’m done for...

Re: Next years QB

None of these guys are worth paying. If we get Teddy at his last year of his rookie contract rate, then I’d go with Teddy. I think he’d be Keenan’s equal with a full camp and Cook back. Does anyone know if we get him next year on the last year of his rookie deal?

Re: NFC Championship Game Thread: Vikings-Eagles

Teddy + another cheap free agent back up is the answer. The D sucked today but that’s who we are. Can’t overspend on any position in today’s NFL. The Vikings better not overspend on Keenum or Bradford. We haven't seen enough of Teddy to gauge whether he is capable of being a starting QB. Even befor...

None of them won the Super Bowl. The Steelers lost in the ACC championship.

Let's hope we don't suffer the same comedown!
