Well, Arizona is beating the Rams 24-3 as the road team.

I am mortified for this week's Thursday Night Football. Wow. I am already peppering the angus for that 4 TD loss.

But it is the same for both teams. You do realize the whole NFL thing is just a money making scheme, not just Thursday games. :lol:

Seattle made a great adjustment at the bye week, they shortened their routes so that the ball gets out quickly and Wilson has been pocket passing like a surgeon giving an actress a nose job. The Vikes really need to get the ball out quickly and stress getting it out quickly. These vertical outs and ins are not the way to go imo.
This is why quite a few of us on the board are questioning Norv. And as much as I like Teddy, why they picked Teddy over Carr if they wanted us to make the games all vertical. If it wasnt for AD changing their minds around the bye week, and AD being center of the O, we might have 5 wins, at most.

WHY CANT THEY GIVE CLEMMINGS HELP?????? Kyle is invisable, I just dont get it.

Why are we still playing TB? Nothing at stake, they trying to get him banged up more?

I guess it gives them an excuse so they don't have to admit that we don't have that good of a team.

The D wasnt exactly playing lights out either. Yeah I know they had injuries. So does every team, so does our O. The game plan sucked. The coaching sucked, and imo, this was the worst playing calling Ive seen all year. Dont know if Teddy is just missing whats being called, or if whats being called just sucks. Either way, I wouldnt mind losing Norv and his son as soon as we are out of the playoff hunt. I mean if we get out of the playoff hunt. And I certainly dont trust Rick on a new QB, Backup QB, or 3rd string QB.
