Where it is real F ing COLD
This has been a terrible football season for me with the Vikings, poor gambling, and unfortunate friends.

The win tonight killed the Vikes QB draft status but what a satisfying win. I didn't give em a chance and they came through with something to at least be happy about. The team kicked their ass. First time in a long time they won in Philly.

I was the first to say that Ziggy should clean house and maybe I am naive or just drunk, but Leslie should be the permanent coach.

Webb played great tonight but the team ball needs to go to the O Line and the defensive strategy and Winfield.. Lets move him to safety nextt year. Favre never had that type of protevtion this year and the game plan to blitzlike crazy and not take it in the ass should of been a philosophy for a long time. No doubt this team loses with Childress at the helm.

I know in the scheme of thing things this is a no big deal win but it does give some satisfaction. I can be happy for just one night this football season and that is more nights than I expected.:00hour

Ziggy needs to clean house, this team needs to get younger & now. We have speed at RB & WR positions (toss Webb back to receiver), need to work on the lines and QB (TJ is not the answer)
maybe Donovan might be had for a song & a dance (or TJ) LOL.

Not 100% sold on Leslie yet, doesn't look comfortable with the HC headset on. They say he's a players coach, translated the inmates run the Asylum. Not a good thing with Minny's past :nono:

IMHO the Vikes are the best 6-9 team in the league....Now don't screw things up more by beating Det. this week :facepalm:

i pretty much agree with sporty.....if theres such a thing as a counter-productive win,this may have been it.....

some folks might get fooled into thinking that webb and frazier are the answer....i`d be surprised if they were...particularly webb....

this team is awfully close to being right back in it next year with the right coaching move and a solid experienced qb inserted into the line-up....

favre and brad leaving will be a shot of adrenaline for this team...we saw how new england clicked right after zapping moss.....and we saw a dead cincy team spring back to life and bludgeon the chargers with t.o. and ocho-stinko on the sidelines....remove the distractions...

with just a few savvy moves,minny should be in the hunt again next year...way too much talent there...

I agree with Webb not being the starter but I think he can be a decent back up..

Leslie Frasier deserves a shot and I hope he cleans house this year and I would start with Bevell and let his ass go..

Tough personel decsiions need to made. Hope he has the balls to do it,.

Have been impressed with how the team has responded to Frazier, however, I hope this team does it's due dilligence in a search for a new coach.

As for Webb, he is still very raw and, given the right training could be very good. For next year, however, the need to bring in a veteran is there. After how he has handled himself in Washington this year, I am not sold on McNabb anymore. I would prefer Orton or Kolb.

Winfield would be a great strong safety, NO ONE is a better tackler. The corners are getting better (very young), the O-Line is very young except for McKinnie.

As for the draft, I like the idea of picking up a potential left tackle to replace McKinnie. If one is not available, it would appear linebacker (if the free agents leave) would be importaant and/or a replacement for the soon to have his ass booted out of town Ray Edwards at Defensive End.

Love my Vikes..glad this bizarre season is finally coming to an end.:00hour
