color blind and has parkensons disease or something...fumbles all the time also.Randy moss had a 60yd TD yesterday though!
Randy Moss can make big plays... no doubt about it. Our receiver group we have now can as well if the QB would throw them the ball.
We played 3 complete games without Moss last year and many more where he sat out the majority of the plays and our offense did not completely shut down and fall apart without him by any means.
Moss is not the reason for all of these turnovers and fumbles and the rest of the crap that's happening now. -
i know he's not the reason for the turnovers...culpepper just sucks balls!!!

His strongest suit is that he is big and can run the ball, but if he can't hold on to it, it doesn't matter too much.

Over Culpepper's career (76 games), he has thrown 82 interceptions and has 78 fumbles (lost 33). That's an average of over 1.5 turnovers a game and could have been well over 2 if some of those fumbles hadn't been recovered.
He's not very bright on top of that. He can't read the defense very well.
Brad Johnson isn't the answer... but we gotta find someone who is.
We don't need a damn perfect QB, but we need someone that won't get us beat with turnovers.As far as the running back situation, we better find someone in the near future and stick with him. NOBODY is going to get any confidence if we keep up this 3 man running back game.

But I thought last year, he was your savior? He was damn near as good as Peyton I was told. Best QB in the league I heard over and over and over. Had among the highest pass ratings in the league. Favre couldn't hold a candle to him. All those things I heard from Vikings fans, damn its funny to watch you guys jump ship....

Anyone that watches football with me knows I have always hated Culpepper. Peyton is the best by far in my book. I also like Favre better.
I am not jumping ship on Culpepper... I've never been on the ship. -

I'm not jumping ship! Favre's overrated ass can't hold a candle to Daunte Culpepper. Period. I seem to remember Brett Favre a few years back throwing a few interceptions in a game.....FIVE is the number I remember.....in a PLAYOFF game! Just because some ignorant fair weather fans think that Daunte Culpepper is the problem, doesn't mean all Vikings fans feel that way. Everyone has a bad game.
Daunte will bounce back when the Vikings get a few things...- a decent offensive line that will keep the pocket for more than 1 second.
- an offensive coordinator that has heard the phrase "3 step drop" and can call plays accordingly.
- a back who can carry the ball 20 times a game consistently (thanks Onterrio "pot is more important to me than football" Smith)
I'll be the first to admit that my expectations were high before this year....they'll be high every year. Why wouldn't they be? That's what makes being an NFL fan fun. There's always a chance. Gotta love parity.

Yeah, that was directed to Vikings fans in general, noone in particular.

maybe they are just joking with us until playoffs....;)

The offensive line sucking ass is partially why Bennett sucked ass in the first game. He's probably so damn nervous that he is going to lose his job now that he started fumbling the ball in the last game. He has had a total of 4 lost fumbles his entire career including those two. He also averaged 4.6 yds a carry over his career. I think he still has some carries left in him... but how long should you stick with the guy? He is dang quick out in the open.
I think Moore proved his worth last year as long as he can stay healthy. He had 100+ yd rushing games in his couple starts last year. I think Moore has a lot better vision and moves and could be our running back for years. I hope they stick with him personally.

with birk gone and dixon retired, the offensive line has a LOT of work to do. thats why the running game isnt going anywhere. if bennet can get out in the open, there are very few people who can catch him. (wasnt he invited to run in the olympics before he started playing?)
from what i understand, theyre still trying to use damn close to the same offense they used when they could go 3 or 4 wide and make big plays. now that they dont really have any major star recievers, that same offense isnt going to work.
-
12 rushes a game is going to work. The vikings need to open it up with moore and bennet. Bennet can run a 40 in 4.3 i think and moore is just as fast but quicker with his moves. If the vikings would just run the ball the passing game would open up. And for fucks sake, protect the damn quarterback and he would settle down some. For tice being an ex-offensive linesman and all, he's doing a shitting ass job coaching them.
-
we need david dixon..bad.
Bennet needs to stop getting the ball, 2 carries 2 fumbles yesterday.
hell if worse comes to worse, we can unretire randal cunningham and he'll just pass for an other 565 pts like in 98

Oh just so happens, Twins begin series tonight @ the A's. I got the A's winning the sweep
