It's all about the coaches and the leaders not letting one loss get the team down, which was what seemed to happen last year. After we lost our first game it was like all of our players didn't have the energy that a championchip team should have.

Other than 1998, doesn't it seem that this has been the pattern with the Vikes? It seemed like Denny Green never had a 'one game losing streak'. It would always stretch to three games, or more. I think a lot of it is NOT just confidence. The other teams make adjustments to take advantage of defensive weeknesses, and it always seems to take forever to figure this out, and counter adjust. Last years example was teams rushing outside..., it started with Denver, and it wasn't until three or four games later the Vikes seemed to find a way to counter it. I hope Ted Cottrell has an easier time recognizing trends, and making adjustments as the game goes on.

Los A., dang you, you are funny man, hahahhahahahahhah, thank you. My eyes watered. This year, we have a pro level DC, so hopefully, they wont take a month to figure out whats going on. Also, Red blew it hard, with his post game speech. I am still PISSED about that.

Well, when your owner barrades you after to lose 1 game to a decent team. You're confidence might be a little shaken too.

I honestly think that was one of the worst move of the season. I think that threw a cork into any tough Motivation Tice wanted too do. This is/was a young team and he couldn't let them fall apart. So he had to slowly pick up the piece Red shattered and then he could go into a chair throwing tirade.

I should add, though, that when you are a professional anything, you should be able to handle criticism.
