Thread: 1st half recap

Offense
Wow, same exact offense we've seen all year.
Timing is off, lots of penalties & dump passes.
B.Childress should have challenged that safety imo, no idea why he didnt.
I thought coming out & running on the last drive & running was the right thing to do but aftre the crowd boos they change their minds & try to pass and end up looking silly.

Defense
Still looking good, should focus on keeping heat on kitna.
This squad is alot more fun to watch than our "O".

Special Teams
Nice one moore, and T-will make a big return & what do ya know, A BS penalty.
Story of our season.


PENALTIES, PENALTIES, PENALTIES!

I'm still trying to work out why Childress didn't challenge the call on the Safety. And our offense can be summed up in one word:

Inept

We suck big time.. Its sick to look at

it appears that well thrown balls are dropped and the just crappy passes, need a real reciever

1 half painfull to watch......this is the lions we should be scoring big time. D-fence looks good.

everything seems to be a bit off other than the defense.
i'm having to watch it through the gamecast on espn.com here at work.
all i can say is that it hurts.
i mean, its the friggin' lions for gods sake!
*sigh*

This game only proves I was right in my post that I made in the "We need a wr" thread.

I know I waited a while to say this but no, we don't need a WR.
We need a QB with the nads to air the ball out more than once or twice a game.
Johnson doesn't have many turnovers but that's because he won't take the needed risks to win a game.
I've always thought that and that's why I've never been a huge BJ supporter.
Yea, we went 7-2 with him last year but we were playing crappy teams.
Special teams beat the Giants.
Our offense this year has made me feel even stronger about this.
If you stuck someone back there behind center that wasn't afraid to throw some deep balls then we might be 3-1 or better right now and scoring some offensive TD's.

All you guys that tried to argue that with me, suck failure.

And to add to that, Johnson is making terrible decisions right now with pathetic accuracy.
He's making me sick to my stomach at this point.

The simple fact is that our offence is poor. Hopefully with time our O line and running game can click, but we have no WRs and an average QB. On the other hand this D is the best I've seen as a vikes fan.

nice, another fumble.....awesome
???

The vikings straight out sink..the o-line suck A@@ with BJ,and I think it's time for him to retire.. We also need better and faster wide receivers that can get open in the field and not lose the ball, like they just did now with travis taylor..
