Should be at least 13-10. No excuse for fumbling in the red zone.

And he was already onto his second read.

... and a 10-10 tie on the road against a good team. The Vikes need to make the most of that first possession of the second half.

I'm impressed by how prepared they looked to play and how physical they're playing.

Much better then I thought the score would be at the half. I like the mix of run and pass, and the occasion 'more then 5 yard pass'. I cant believe Zimmer is not blitzing when we have no pass rushers. Palmer is barely moving back there, evading pressure with the greatest of ease.

Look at Dan Marino's season in 1983 when he was 23 years old. It was excellent.

We need to get a signature win under Zimmer. Until it happens, I will doubt their ability to do so. They are doing well so far.

especially for the depleted secondary you have to be kidding me I wouldn't of thought we would be close at this point.

I am floored that we are tied and getting the ball to start the third on the road in prime time against what I think is the NFC's best team.

We were down 21-0 with about 50 total yards at halftime against Seattle.

I think the only good thing about AP only getting 8 carries against Seattle is that he's the freshest, quickest player on the field. And he's playing angry. Looking for a couple of big runs in the second half.

Teddy is averaging more yards per completion than Palmer. And Palmer has a 70 yard TD. Keep it up boys (including Norv).

Hell fire, the O-lines collapsing, receivers are fumbling and teddy's still 10/13 and got us to 10-10 at the half.
Haters still got to hate I suppose. I'm not saying he's the answer at QB, neither am I saying he's not good enough. I'm willing to give him the benefit of the doubt, put in the putrid situation he has been put in.
Until Teddy has proven either way, I'm giving him a chance, and I'm cheering for him all the way.

So far, the Vikings are hanging in there. I think your coach is calling a smart game so far.
Everyone knows this. There are 5 billion threads about it on this site alone about it. But whens hes doing well, at prime time, on the road, im just asking him too cool down with the hate. Wait till tmw., or next week to get the Teddy hatefest in, but not during a game where hes doing better the the other QB.
