I swear to god, if one of these jokers gets up and celebrates picking up a first down I'm going to vomit. This is one of the worst teams I have ever witnessed. I bet Jacksonville would beat us by 20+

All teams go through their ups and downs, it just that the Vikings have more downs than ups. :lol:

Awkward moment: Ponder throws a duck, crowd boos, camera pans to Freeman who winces...

True. But I think it goes back to what I said about Wilf taking the cheaper approach by "promoting the underperformers." Rather than spending money and getting a more quality staff.

Quit padding it and making people think this is a game. Lose by 17, "only" 17.

Every team goes through ups and downs. The Packers were great in the 60s, were terrible in the 70s an 80s, and have been very good ever since Reggie White joined them in the 90s.

The Vikings had their heyday from 1969-1977. Then again in 1987, 1998 and 2009. They were decent in the 90s, but have been generally hard to watch in this century.
