Huh? they do have a RB (#5 in the league) they just don't quite grasp what and when to use him, I think they think he's like a pitcher in B-ball... can only go so long then save him for next game
Whoops. Typo! Meant WR.
Could be a typo again.....DB That's what I'm saying!
I didn't see but a handful of plays yesterday at the rink but it seems that our receivers are starting to catch the ball when it's near them...Rice and Wade had a decent game from what I was hearing......(Nice Job Dugan )
Fire Childress! NOW!, after Watching the replay of the game via TIVO, i was pissed off, not at the refs, But Brad F*cking Childress, this SOB has to be the worst damn coach in this league, Adrian Peterson going into the 4th had 10 carries for 100 yards, he gets the ball 2 damn times in the 4th, Brad screwed this team out of a possible win, Dumb Move by a Dumb Coach, Zygi Wilf, Fire His Ass ASAP

I couldn't even if I wanted to. To the NFL, the Vikings are a rotting corpse
I'm not a conspiracy threorist, but I'm starting to wonder about this a little. Zygi says the right things, but they hired a substandard coach, have no QB, no RB, remain well below the salary cap for the 2nd consecutive year... and the L.A. market remains without a team.
I ain't sayin'... I'm just sayin'.
I'll say it, I think a move to LA is a clear and present danger until a new stadium goes up. I always believed that the previous owner bought the team with the intentions of moving it to San Antonio. He probably faced resistance from the league when Houston got the expansion team giving Texas a second team. What you are seeing now in the Vikes is years of neglect from the McCombs Regime when it was apparent he couldn't move them to Texas.

Hmmm so you think it's the old drive us in the dirt, so no one cares, and revenues drop with fan interest, so there is no chance for a stadium, so I'm moving the team deal !! If that's it... that's rotten from the top down!
But it makes you wonder why they stop giving their RB the ball after 10 carries for 100 yds, so just maybe there is something to this GREED??????
I don't think there is a grand conspiracy by the NFL to move the team. I just think McCombs wanted to be the guy who brought a team to his hometown, once that couldn't happen, he just got board and eventually put up the "for sale sign". Wilf wants just wants to make money, If he can do it in Minnesota, he'll stay, If he can't and the franchise is sputtering and the stadium can't get done, I think the NFL would OK the move out West.

They wont lose this market. Its the 15th largest.
I mean, where else can you never win a tilte, not go to the Super Bowl in 30 years, and still sell out.
Being in the 15th largest market won't mean anything when a move to the largest metro area in the country is being considered.
If the team can't sell out in Minnesota (and they sure aren't producing a product lately which the fans are flocking to see), the NFL won't think twice about a move to a market where they will.

You bet they will! Because it's all about the $ today
I just wish the ownership or office involved with picking up talent(coaches and players) would do more to give back to the fans, what they have been so faithful in giving the team, sell outs =$ should = return in investment as well.
But because we now are in the process of becoming an owners toy, i'm afraid we have fallen to a level in which attracting free agent talent will be nearly impossible.. well unless they win

I guarantee they don't sell out too many more games this year.. The Atlanta game would have been blacked out if it wasn't for KMSP or whoever buying the remaining tickets and last Sunday half the stadium was Green and Gold.. move em to LA!
NO!! I don't want to lose them... I think we all just want a team we can expect to succeed.....give us hope Ziggy!!
Re-invest in the team...so we can win a title...look what it did for the Twins they are a respected club even in a small market.
