Does this game suggest it is easier to win in the NFL with a great passing game and no running game than vice versa? I agree with those who suggest this game is the knife in Frazier's coffin. Starting Ponder week after week and losing will be his epitaph. Just one data point but wow.

Stupid Vikings won damn Should have definately tanked
I was a "tanker" a few weeks ago. But, as long as Manziel is available for us, and we won't get the #1 pick, I like these wins. Especially when it exposes how awful the decisions made by our coaching staff are exposed.

If Tannehill can come out of A&M and make it in the NFL, Manziel can do the same, and with more upside.
A successful coach needs a patient wife, loyal dog, and great quarterback - and not necessarily in that order.
Kudos to the Vikes for a big win! I can't wait to watch the full game but it's great to have a Vikes game where the game plan and execution all came together the way those things are supposed to come together and the team not only won but pulled off an upset. Well done

I want a coaching change too but anyone could see that this team has not quit playing for him and I see zero credit for the job he did today pulling this team along with several starters missing and beating a very good Eagles team handily. All rhetoric will be about all the mistakes he made with Ponder and that will/has been mentioned a 100 times already.
Do not mistake KINDNESS for WEAKNESS!
Best to keep your mouth shut and be thought a fool rather than open it and remove all doubt.

Poor Ponder. I really feel bad for him. He seems like a good dude.
Whenever I start to feel bad for him, I realize who is wife is, how much $ he has, and that he probably has years left in the NFL as a backup. Then I say good riddance my man.

And they did it without a single one of their top 4 CBs from last year, or their 1st round pick at CB this year. A pretty impressive team effort.
Yeah, it's good to see them come together and play so hard even after being eliminated from playoff contention. It speaks well of the players, the coaches, everybody. They showed some pride today.
