Vikings @ Packers Game Day Discussion Thread -- Wild Card

[Raptorman]

So instead of getting the ball on the Packers 45 we end up with it on our 9. Great. Football gods had better be planning something good for us next year.

Nice grab, Sherels. [/bronxcheer]

What I thought was impressive about Robinson's play was Nelson bumped him off and he still had the pace and effort to make the play

[Mothman]

And there's the trifecta, Pelissero, Souhan and Zulgad all saying the same thing

@SouhanStrib: For once I agree with fans ripping the offensive coordinator. Musgrave has had good year, but asking Webb to be pocket passer is silly.

Eh... easy for Souhan and co. to say but what does Webb really do well? His best plays usually come when he sets up in the pocket, the pocket breaks down and he makes a play with his legs. He's not a good enough passer to ask him to do a lot of rolling out and passing on the run. We just saw what happens when he tries that: INTs.

The bottom line is Webb just isn't an NFL-caliber QB. They gave him his shot at focusing on the position this season and this is the result. Spielman has to go get a better backup (or two) this offseason.

There are only so many 'adjustments' that can be made. A #### quarterback is a #### quarterback. Make all the adjustments you want, Webb isn't good enough to win a playoff game.

Really? Did you see the calls played in the second half???
And the D? Same thing, picked apart.
I mean adjustments because we have Webb.....

[Raptorman]

OK, AP 91 yard TD run!

[PurpleKoolaid]

This has nothing to do with Frazier and Musgrave.

ok whatevah

Exactly.

Poorly coached and prepared teams rarely play good on the road, outside, late in the year. Its going to be an extra long off-season thanks to this game.

Long offseason? So you're saying you weren't satisfied with this season? You expected more?

How was this season a disappointment? I think it was a rousing success. Remember, we weren't supposed to sniff the playoffs.

Webb is getting worse. He's overthrowing his interceptions now....

Actually, the D hasn't been terrible.

[yezzir]

Please take Peterson out of the game. No more injuries, please.

[TeamChaplain]

i would have told webb at half time that he was going to be cut in the off season and that the second half would be his audition tape for another team.

[Laserman]

Punt the FREAKING ( and i don't mean Freaking) Football. Don't embarrass yourselves further
