If we could get a Herschel trade, I doubt any one would complain about the trade. Unfortunately guys like "he who shall not be named" ,ML, are not occupying space in many teams front offices.

Maybe this loss will help the team grow, but at the peak of a winning streak to collapse like this when we haven't even gotten to the meat of our division games yet is really disheartening.

What on earth happened? Once again the middle was wide open, as noted the red zone offense was missing, and Ponder had a bad day over throwing receivers except when it was to the Redskins.

If we have the best back in football why can't convert at least one of those 1st quarter field goals into touchdowns?
At least put our best RB Harvin out there to give us a chance.

You're missing the fact that the only reason we even have a dimension is because of him. The Vikings minus Peterson are a team devoid of threats. Harvin is talented, but he is more effective when the entire other team isn't focused on him. With AP out there, Harvin isn't the focus - Peterson is.

Game sucked.

D looked lost - RGIII froze them on play after play. Haven't seen one guy burn a team so badly since Steve Smith ate Fred Smoot's lunch for him.

We need receivers...bad.

Ponder didn't look so hot today either. Still not sold on him.

Field goals are nice, but we need TDs.

Welcome to Viking Nation my friend.

The team being devoid of talent is why I'm for trading Peterson, for any type of long term studs. Ala Herschel Walker deal. Other than that I agree with everything else you had to say.

Losing to the Skins and that punk ass RG3 is what is pissing me off. That dude is cocky as all hell. What has he done in his 6 total games in the NFL to get the type of protection that guys like Manning, Brady, and those type of QB's get? On his last TD run, his OL was holding like crazy, but is one of them called? Hell no. Then that idiot is on the sidelines laughing for like 20 f'n minutes. Someone should tell him to stop smiling on camera with those big ass teeth, looks like his mom had a affair with Mr. Ed.

Another thing that pissed me off is when the Vikings were down by 12 late, they showed Allen, Griffen, and Guyion all laughing on the sidelines. Why were you guys laughing? It was mainly you guys that couldn't get to RG3, and this secondary that couldn't cover or tackle on why they lost today, and you dumb asses are laughing. Lost some respect for them guys as players today.

So how come this team can dominate the 49ers and that offense, but get walked all over by RG3 and the f'n Skins? That was flat out embarrassing, and yet these guys were laughing on the sidelines. Also, what in the hell happened to Ponder today? My god, that dude made some dumb ass mistakes today that cost this team many of points. 3 times in the redzone in the 1st quarter alone, and you can't manage one single f'n TD in that time. Those stats boys, you deserve to lose. Now I am not expecting much from this team this team, but I surely didn't expect them to lose against the Skins today. Just a awful performance all the way around. Yes sitting at 4-2 is still pretty good, but you can't let teams like the Skins beat up on you like they did today.

Can we NOW please sign Plaxico Burress???

PLEASE??

We need more of a killer instinct. FG's won't get it. I said that in the first quarter.
AP.......... Please stop cutting back into the teeth of the defense when the 1st down is in sight!!!!

We should of had this one.

Exactly! If we had a coach that was actually good, he would bench Peterson for doing stupid ish like that.
