Is this even the same Team that I saw last weekend?

Next time someone wants to say Musgrave was the problem here, just pull the plug on your computer instead.

No, it has our brilliant GM's favorite quarterback leading it.

Why didn't we clean house when we hired a new coach again? :wallbang:

Yup. Exactly what I wrote. Oline would get him killed. Kind of glad Teddy isn't playing though or he probably would have gotten injured even worse.

Hey. Lets let it all happen this game. All the bad bounces. All the fumbles. All the missed calls. Just lay it on here, and give us the good stuff in the rest of the games.

A day away from playing. :lol:

When playing it way too conservative goes wrong. I know people want to play doctor on here, but there are NBA players who have to go 3 times a week on a hard court that can play on tweaked ankles. Vikings played it way too cautiously here.

Normally i'd say one loss isn't a big deal, but Vikings had a real chance to send a message and gain some divisional confidence.

So he could get sacked 5 times with a bum ankle? No, think the coaches made the right decision.
