    In my case my fantasy team is just as pathetic as my real team. Should of known better than to draft Mike "Turnover is my middle name" Vick.

    I tend to agree with these sentiments. It appears to be rebuilding time. The Vikings had their chance two years ago and blew it. Now they have an aging roster with big holes to fill in the secondary, O-line, and at receiver. Every other team in their division has blown by them. Start playing Ponder to see whether he can be the quarterback of the future, and quit giving up draft picks for over-the-hill veterans.

    Vikes own the 1st half of games. 54-7 they have outscored opponents. 2nd half they have been outscored 67-6. Brutal

    Re: Vikings are a joke

    Its not McNabb at all, its the o-line and pass coverage that need help. Of course, the Vikes knew that going into the season, I just can't figure why they can't move the ball after the half. Amazing, same thing has happened 3 games in a row.

Never good when you win a starting job be default.
    The O-line sucks!! Period. Receivers dropped a lot of balls. Coaching wise... why go with the kid from Stanford - Gerhart - over Peterson on the 4-1 call? That could have been a game changer...

    my two cents...
    Beat texas.... shorthorns... : )

    The Vikings have always been a joke.

    How many Vikings does it take to win a Super Bowl?

    Re: Vikings are a joke

    Went to this game today! Was my first NFL game ever! Great game!

    First half was not so good. I found myself thinking at halftime 'They blew the lead last week, no way they do it again. They had to of learned their lesson.' Glad that thought was wrong.

    GO LIONS!!!

    The O LINE needs to do something, but I want to see what Ponder can do hell why not.

    Re: Vikings are a joke

    They blew three consecutive halftime, double-digit leads and did so in their first three games. First time in the history of the NFL this has happened.

    I'm having a hard time deciding if Leslie Frazier is either blind, an incompetent coach, or Brad Childress 2.0. I really want to give him the benefit of the doubt, but to have this happen once is an accident, twice is a problem, thrree times is a trend.

    And don't even get me started on McNabb...

    I'm not ready to write off the season, as we are not mathematically out of it, but this is getting rediculous. At least Iowa State is 3-0! Yay pick-me-ups!

    I agree with their window closing in New Orleans. I've told several people that while I love Peterson, I hope they don't spend too much on a big extension (oops) because they'll be rebuilding pieces for at least another 2-3 years when he's on the back end of being a premiere back.
