I think we have a winner in the "Who has less touch than Michael Vick?" contest.

    As a fan I have a right to complain, you don't fucking lose your intensity and blow a 14 point lead in the 4th quarter.

    Edit: Yes, it's good they won, they sure didn't make it look good though. I love this team, but, TJ sucks balls, Childress still uses his Fisher Price clipboard to manage his player personnel, there's still a lot wrong.

    another fraustrating loss. I really think 90% of our problem is our shitty offensive line. Ryan Cook, is a moron, he is on the special teams, and he can't get on the field when we are kicking a field goal, he is on special teams! Get on the field! Jackson was hurried 11 times, sacked twice. he threw the ball 18 times, that means almost 80% of the time he was running for his life, it is not all the QB's fault.

    I know I know but it just doesn't seem like Jackson can make any throw that's over 20 yards. How many deep balls has he completed this year?

    He's been in the league now almost a year and a half and has shown no improvement whatsoever. He still doesn't know how to throw a route properly, at this point he'd at least put a ball where it's supposed to be more than once a season.

    He made that one to Williamson against the Bears, his first deep pass completion ever.

    It will be up to the next coaching staff once this one gets shit-canned.

    Let me re-phrase my statement, Brad Chilldress is a horrible coach. Chilldress's caoaching approach and his different coaching schemes are terrible. I supported Chilldress all of last year, and I still support him to a small extend, but I really don't see any improvement from last year as a head coach. He hasn't changed anything. That is what bugs me. You have to learn to adjust, and going out and signing Bobby Wade as our top free agent in the offseason, that was just a joke. He is not a number one WR. He would be a good slot reciever, but he is being asked to be in a number one WR role, that is not what he is about.

    If I recall, I think we were top 5 in the league with most money under the cap. I know we tried to sign Kevin curtis, and when that failed, we just completely gave up on signing anybody else. I know there wasn't a great free agent class, but there were still some very good players available, that we didn't even attempt to sign.

    i just think wanting a staff to get out of town only a year and a half in is a bit too soon.

    I like some of the coaches that we have, its just Chilldress bugs me, he is too conservative. I like Frazier (Defensive coordinator), I like Eric Bienemy (our runningbacks coach) and some other coaches, its just Chilldress, and Darrell Bevel that bother me the most. I wil give them the rest of the season, and see what they can improve, or make better, but if I don't see any changes, I am gonna be pushing for a new coach, or at least a new coaching scheme/strategy.

    Re: Minnesota Vikings

    with a quarterback, we wouldve won yesterday.

    tarvaris jackson should still have a mentor around (culpepper wouldve been a great signing t help with that). jackson could be good, but theres no way he could ever be "the guy" at this stage.

    the vikes bad season ALL comes down to the fact that we didnt sign or trade for a good starting quarterback in the offseason.

    and they were there. nobody to take us to the super bowl, but at least SOMETHING, and SOMEONE to start at QB while mentoring jackson. couldve been leftwich, trent green, culpepper, jeff garcia, matt schaub. There were options, and our lovely management settled on jackson. hope it teaches them a lesson anyways.

    gotta love adrian peterson though. for as few touches as he gets, unbelievable.

    He looks completely lost out there. It doesn't seem like he's even beginning to grasp the NFL game. I don't think there is any way he ends up as the long-term solution to the Vikings QB problem.

    I dunno. I have mixed emotions about that. I understand them not wanting to use AP exclusively because an NFL team is better if they have two quality backs. It doesn't matter to me that he's #2 on the depth chart. But I too am confused how they're using him. Like splitting him out wide...that isn't making a hell of a lot of sense.

    I don't think AD should be getting all of the carries, but they've got to find a way to get him more than 13 touches a game. I find it funny how the media is saying Dallas shut him down when he averaged more than 5 yards a carry on Sunday. And if Childress is worried about keeping AD healthy why is he still out there returning kicks, where he will get harder than on any offensive play.

    Now T. Jackson may not be playing on Sunday, great now Holcomb will have to run for his life behind our shitty offensive line, oh wait he can't move. That is one thing I like about TJ, he can get out of the pocket, not Holcomb, he is a standing still duck.

    I heard a punchline today: The only people scared of Tarvaris Jackson are the Minnesota Vikings fans.

    it's about time someone agrees with me about our o-line, I have been bitching about that the past year and 1/2. Mckinnie get beat by anybody and everybody.

    I am not sure if Chilldress can beat Les Steckle's wonderful franchise low in wins in one season (3-13)

    Winning the starting job at QB for this team is like getting a medal at the special olympics.
