That was at least the third time they couldn't tell a ball was caught too. I will still take them over anybody that has to work with Dan Deirdorf. I hate listening to him.

I'm not a sports expert, but aren't you down when your knee touches the ground...

Long, time consuming drive please. Control the line of scrimmage and your 2-0.

At every level except the NFL you are. In the NFL you must be touched or forced down.

NFL.com

0-7-4-0-11
0-10-7-0-17

OK, who has the two safeties for the Vikes? nfl.com is saying it is 17-11 right now.

I think they ran out of 7's for their scoreboards and they are substituting 1's their place.

Turnover #4 of the 2nd half. Fumble recovery. Anybody have the Vikes D on their fantasy team?

Irishmans Shanty · Post by **Irishmans Shanty** » Sun Sep 16, 2007 6:00 pm

Need a turnover on this side of the field to put it on a tee for the O.

NO GOOD! Missed field goal for the Lions!!!

Longwell hits the upright from 52 yards with 2 seconds left. Looking like OT.

Vikings head coach has a look-a-like. Who might that be. Hmm...

We lose 20-17 in OT.

Defense gave up a lot of yards but I can't blame them when they had 5 turn overs, a couple of sacks and scored a TD. Wonder if Jackson can play next week or if it will be Holcomb or Bollinger.

The Vikes execute like Mr. HSWATCHER writes... could be a long season

I am convinced now that we are in deep trouble with our QB ...good grief

TJ is a panic QB..and made some awful choices today.

Gotta give credit to the lions D line for bringing the pressure all game.

I hope the vikes D backs catch h--l because that group plays way to far off and they are not very good at tackling. It's nice to see the INT's but to let them continue to kill us with 5-15 yrd pass plays and then another 5yds after the catch

One more easy week with KC and then bring on the pain

When you can't pass it makes life tough, heck KC held Chicago in check in Chicago. Do you really think they'll have trouble holding this pathetic offense in check in KC? Good grief Cleveland has an offense and I can't name more than 2 guys on their team.

Vikings D 3 touchdowns
Vikings offense 2 touchdowns

The only positive so far this season is that I am positive the NFC North will not be grabbing its ankles for the Chicago Bears this year. I've seen exactly zero snaps of a Packer game this year but wins against the Eagles and @ the Giants are signs that at least somebody can stand up to the neighborhood bully.

I'd rather watch movies than the Packers.

Pass the popcorn...

Even a chick flick would be better. Pass the kleenex.

it looked like a highschool game to me

Same old BS with the Queens. D-Backs have no idea how to cover a guy, just stand 15 yards off the line, wait till they catch it and try to shove em out of bounds...

anybody else sick of watching back up qb's start for the vikes? get a freakin qb already...

I have been to a number of high school games and they execute much better than this team. The high school teams that I have seen make fewer mistakes.

Its pathetic. Especially when you consider that they have been at this since July and played 4 pratice games.

They dont have any talent on offense at QB and WR.

OK, fine thats the hand they are dealt. But eliminate the mistakes and keep the ball in AP's hands and it would be OK.

Pathetic.
