This fact bears repeating: The Vikings sacked Skelton seven times without blitzing once. Not a single time. Never in 69 snaps, according to ESPN Stats & Information. (Some of you thought the Vikings blitzed on a fourth-quarter play that ended with Kevin Williams' sack, but replays show the Vikings jumped out of a blitz just before the snap and sent only four rushers.)
Skelton certainly didn't help matters for the Cardinals. I can't recall the last time I've seen a young QB who was either that slow or that immobile. He also had the chance to throw the ball away a couple of times that he was flushed from the pocket, but elected not to.
