the official **** the vikings thread

[Sparky]

seriously, how do you just not win that game?

Throwing for less than 40 yards doesn't help. The endless offsides penalties at the end were almost as bad as the "choke", although I have to say I didn't think we'd only lose by 7 in San Diego, especially with K-Williams out. This is gonna be a long season.

Donovon actually looks like a perfect fit for all intensive purproses, all are triple aaa players were putting up stats.We even ****ed around with some blazcat offense which is cool. It's just the weird viking dynamic where we play good but still manage to suck at the same time.
and am i the only one who has noticed berrian hasn't caught a clutch ball in like 2 seasons? trade his ass.

Played good, what game were you watching? Besides the initial kick return for a touchdown they got shut down on offense all day. Even AP besides a 40 yard run was shut down the rest of the way with about 58 yds. I think the Vikings are gonna be lucky to be 6-10 the way they looked on both sides of the ball. Its clear that the Packers are the elite team in the division, but Chicago and Detroit both looked better then Minny also.

The Chargers look pretty solid and should make the playoffs.

Adrianne Peterson got shut down? He still managed a 100 yard game, and that was a bad day, imagine a good day at home.

Our d line shut down the chargers rushing game with only 4 in the box, without kevin williams, thats impressive, and came away with multiple sacks and interceptions.

Donovon threw a touchdown, once he gets comfy with our 4 tight ends and percy 1st downs will come easy with a solid running game. He is able to get out of the pocket which is the most crucial thing right now.

We have no deep threat,berrian has coasted for years for some reason without ever doing anything. We have a really slow secondary, and will definetly get passed on the entire year.

And who signs a 7 year extension with a RB this late? I'll be surprised if adrianne is still healthy at the end of this year the way we gotta keep using him.

If you subtract the 43 yard run he averaged 3 yds a carry for the day beyond that one run. AP was shut down plain and simple. Mcnabb is a mess, he managed 40 some odd yds passing for the complete game, thats reminiscent of last year with the lowly skins.

Their defense did a decent job, they have potential to keep them in games, but your offense lacks identity at this point. I'd say 6-10 is being nice. I think AP has some left in the tank. I give him another three years of productivity at the all pro level. I always liked the vikings, hope i'm wrong but they look dead in the water at the moment. Good luck to them.

I agree with **** the Vikings - then again, I was just thrilled to actually see the Chargers winning a game early in the season.

The Chargers are my team - maybe they could actually make the post season this year?

jesus christ, whats the point in having a run stop defense when nobody besides us runs the ball

What was with the play call at the end? A lateral? We still had 2 time outs at least pretend like your tying to conserve the clock.

I was actually kind off optimistic,but our defense seems like they're too old to play a full game and our receivers don't feel like getting open.
