To be a Vikings fan is a true test for mental stability and possibly marital stability (taught my wife to become a football and Vikings fan before we got married).
I didn't think they would be very good this year but I don't think anyone could write a script for how bad they have imploded. Pretty epic even for the Vikings

That may not necessarily be true.Pats are 3-0 in the east as of now with Bills next but then the Jets and Miami again.Denver is 2-1 in the west and still have KC and LA to deal with after the Raiders.Going to be a very interesting few weeks coming up!

I don't know why anyone thought JJ McCarthy was a 1st round pick let alone a franchise QB.

Whoever made the decision to draft him should be fired because that was an epic fail.

The kid never faced any adversity at Michigan. He had a solid OL, solid run game and a stout defense. He never came from behind and never had to run for his life. He was just a game manager.

Patriots beat the Giants. That article was written before the MNF game.They are currently the #1 seed.

Right now the Pats hold the #1 seed. If it comes down to identical records then the Raiders game gives Denver the edge but that's putting the cart before the horse which is never something I would do but with that logic put aside you got Nix and we got Maye and one of those two is much better than the other, but I would never rely on that on any given Sunday!

The Vike's GM has not had a very good record at building anything, I like KOC but this year is showing that he is not a young QB whisper and has shown that more experienced QB's can do well with his offense. Not sure how reliable some of the sources are but watched some ESPN clip that had Bruce Ariens on it and sure sounds like McCarthy is a middle school head case besides looking like a middle school student. Maybe wouldn't be so bad if it wasn't for all the McCarthy hype coming from training camp, obviously there were some untruths.
I do believe that Shawn Payton dupped the Vikings into taking McCarthy over Nix. To that I say "well played sir, well played"

I'm aware of that but they haven't had their bye week yet, which they have this week. They've played 13 games, we've played 12 and we already had our bye week.

Our records will equalize and we will have two tie breakers with a win over the Raiders on Sunday.
