Turned on the game in time to see a Viking punt return TD

Then a holding penalty on the ensuing kick-off return. No running game? No worries. No Special Teams? We’re in trouble.

We all leave footprints in the sands of time, just watch out for the discarded fish hooks!

Was it a bad punt og a bad coverage that made their TD?

by Indermann on Dec 14, 2008 2:25 PM MST reply actions  

Great punt, horrible coverage angles.

Now for the most exciting play in NFL football: the replay review!

What a throw and catch...wow.

Hood had great coverage, perfect throw.

How much longer before Buck or Aikman say “same ’ol Cards”? They’re sure playing like it.

Too painful to watch. Since they can’t get their heads out of their asses I won’t be watchin the rest

Looks like it. Boldin didn't secure the ball well but it wasn't moving when it was knocked out.

Whis' coach challenges have been born out of desparation

Poor choice to challenge them both.

Desperation though was the key word there. he really didn’t have much of a choice, imo.

O-line were playing bridge on that sack...LAME!

Next play too…how soon before Leinart’s in the game?

I hope the Vikings put up 60 at this rate...

Let the Niners represent the NFC West in the playoffs, at least they’re playing competitive ball.

The big test is whether the Cardinals keep fighting or completely lay down like they did in Philly

You're welcome

Be pissed at your own team that cannot take care of Green Bay and can barely beat the Saints at home.

I have been pulling for the cardinals all year just to see the seahawks and their whiney fans get knocked off..

by tfrabotta on Dec 14, 2008 3:36 PM MST up reply actions  

Well, truth be told

they earned it so far today. As stated earlier, pathetic effort all around. Trust me, we rag on them to no end when called for.

yeah

we do the same..I can’t actually the bears might finish 10-6..way better than I thought they would..

by tfrabotta on Dec 14, 2008 3:39 PM MST up reply actions  

"The Vikings aren't that good."

You mean that team that you’re looking up at in the standings and will be the lone NFC North representative in the NFC playoffs?

The team that destroyed the Bears the last time they got together?

Yeah, you’re right, not that good at all.

by Christopher Gates on Dec 14, 2008 5:51 PM MST up reply actions  

And consider yourselves lucky

That the Bears got one of the NFC West’s three “bye week” teams on their schedule, while the Vikings got to take on their division champion.

Arizona would destroy Chicago on any field in America.

There's a serious flaw at the heart of this team

They act like little bitches when things begin to go against them, even slightly.

I doubt many division champs in recent memory have ‘played’ even one game like the Vikes, Philly and Jets over the course of their regular season.

and we have another 30 minutes of this to go?

Goodbye MVP for Warner too

Rather him be a post-season MVP at this point.

This game will ensure that the media will write off both of these things happening

You’d think the roster would respond to the disrespect they’ve been getting, but they seem to believe it.

believe it or

living down to the reputation? I’m not sure what it is at this point.

Nah, Warner being MVP, and the team doing anything in the playoffs.

sorry, misread that Undb

I think its probably a bit of both to be honest.

That ought to wipe that smirk of Jackson's face just a little.

with Peterson and Taylor behind me, im pretty sure i could look good at Qb for the Vikings.

He's inactive Im afraid to say.

Gandy needs a bit more help against a 13.5 sack rusher.. he’s had to pass block against allen about 50 times. These 4 wide sets are killer against a team with a decent pass rush.
