Patterson now owns the Vikings single season record for rushing TDs by a WR. If he gets two more rushing TDs in his Vikings career he'll have the team record for most rushing TDs by a WR.

Percy who? ;)

I was a critic, but Spielman got that one more than right.

Matt Asiata, ask him to get you three yards and he'll get you three yards, ask him to get you five yards and he'll get you three yards.

Winning this game won't hurt which draft pick we get much. Only way it would hurt us is if a 4 win team gets a W this week and we could have jumped them.

I didn't realize Jay Glazer made those decisions for the Vikes. ;)

Seriously, thanks for the link.

Exactly, we need a bad attitude boy. Don't see him staying on the seahawks much longer

we actually can't finish worse than the 8th pick. As the number 9 spot currently has 6 wins. So depending on today we could move as high as the number 6 pick if I recall but that is unlikely.
Purple Pride till the end.

Why don't we just play Patterson at running back? Can't stand watching Asiata run up the middle for two yards every time.

Vikes do a lot better when they don't see that 8+ in the box trying to stop AD....

Every time I see Patterson standing on the sidelines I get pissed. I know it's been said many other times before on other threads but wtf !

Rare comments from Zygi Wilf on this last game day at the Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome. From the Pioneer Press.

http://m.twincities.com/twincities/db_3 ... d=RgjG0VnI
"It's a great day,'' Wilf said before the game. "I'm sure for many more people it's much more sentimental. They put their amount of time and efforts in here and they also put it in the old (Metropolian Stadium). So it's a process. You go from here to the new stadium, the Vikings traditions will continue.

"That's greatest thing about it. You go from the Met stadium to the Metrodome to the new stadium. For us and for our children, to be able to experience the same things we did in those places, that's what's exciting.''

well, say what you want about Frazier, but the players are NOT quitting on him.

For an example of a team whose players have quit......see the team in silver on the other side of the ball!!! This game could get ugly here.
