They can always put Allen back in. :)

Actually, if Webb knows the TE routes well enough from his QB days, maybe he could play a little TE. He's a big man.

For you cap experts out there, how much of Carlson's remaining contract is guaranteed?

This Chase Ford looks like a potential cheap replacement!

I don't remember but I don't think it's much. He's suffered enough concussions that I can imagine him considering retirement.

Ouch.

Fair criticism. But in his defense he has thrown some zippy, accurate passes too.

These announcers suck.

I always thought that too , why couldn't he be a shannon Sharpe type tight end not a blocker but a good receiver
LETS GO VIKINGS ! :rock:

I think he was out there at some point. I thought I heard PA mention it.

What's up with Cassel getting so many passes knocked down every game from the line of scrimmage :confused:
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.

Is Walsh injured? That's two in his range and they punted.

His passes seem to have a flatter trajectory than Ponder's lobs and Freeman's naval gun overthrows.
