Me too. Always a good way to start your week. I don't like it when some dude takes one part of your post and tries to make something bad of it just to start an argumentPurpleMustReign wrote:
I am happy as all get out after this win!!! I love when they win, it makes my week that much better.

I know and they could easily be 3-1. I'm genuinely happy about the win and about them eliminating any chance of finishing with the worst record in franchise history. I really didn't want that to happen.J. Kapp 11 wrote: Vikes are 2-1-1 in their last four.

Well said on all points. The win, Cassel, the defense, Allen and Cook.
I apologize. I thought when you gave praise and THEN followed that up with being critical about some of our defensive guys (and the defense as a whole), that you were, indeed, going negative. No argument. I just call it like I see it, but I was wrong. Those comments were all positive, all the time, as usual.Purple bruise wrote: I said that it was a good win kudos to Cassel and then commented on how bad Cook and JA played.
I'm really curious to see if he sticks around next year. Anyone think that if he does, that he might be the starter going into next season to let the potential rookie QB learn a bit? I wouldn't hate that.Hunter Morrow wrote:Cassel should have started the whole season.

That's what scares me too. Ziggy is still the same guy that hired Childress AND Frazier without interviewing anyone else. He's a businessman, not a Football guy. Hopefully he'll leave it up to Spielman (Or whoever may replace him) to pick out next Coach.Lash Man wrote: Ugh that scares me , he may just get the notion to extend Frazier
I like how Frazier calls them "routine throws," even though Ponder rarely even SEES them, let alone make them.Frazier: "Cassel did a good job making those routine throws on a consistent basis."
Wow. I thought Frazier would wait until at least Wednesday to start leaning toward Ponder as the starter.Question: "Is Christian Ponder still a consideration as a starter next week?"
Frazier: "Of course he is."
I will give the Vikings the benefit of the doubt and say they picked the guy who performed better in camp. Cassel was probably not going to start regardless. However, Cassel didn't do enough to lose the job after the Panthers game (see how well they're doing now). The Freeman signing was a total waste. Cassel should have been the QB for the Giants game, and ever since then. He's obviously better than Ponder. Not a great talent, but certainly competent enough to give the Vikings a chance to be competitive in most games.Hunter Morrow wrote:Cassel should have started the whole season.
