All of you Viking homers can argue with me all you want- you can't run up the score in the NFL, if you don't like it stop them, etc., but listen to these quotes, and tell me if I'm right:
Brad Childress, HC: "I don't care what the score is, I'm going to keep my best players out there for 60 minutes of football. And that means Chester Taylor."
Donovan McNabb, who played them last week: "Yeah, I questioned it a little bit. They had 16 points and they were still throwing the ball downfield, if you can call it that. I don't know, man. I think teams in this league should know when they're lost, you know? Take a knee or something."
Al Harris, CB, Packers: "If it doesn't stop, someone's gonna take a shot at what's his name, the QB. Who is that back there, anyway? I don't know who the guy is, but somebody's gonna take a shot at him."
LaDamien Tomlinson, SD "Classless. We'd beat this team 9 times out of 10!"
Do you believe it now? Do you need more definitive proof? Take a look:
Over 7 games, the Vikings have 130 points. YES YOU HEARD RIGHT, 130 POINTS!! That's an average of 18+ points a game. That's more than Brazil's soccer team scored when they were ranked #1 in the world.
Further, lets take an example of a typical 4th quarter of Viking play-calling:
1st down handoff Taylor 2 yrd carry
2nd down pass Jackson Inc
3rd down pass Jackson Inc
4th down punt
They're passing the ball 2-1! They even have the lead sometimes! (well, not often.)
Somebody's got to put a stop to this. I plan on introducing at least 7 more threads devoted to this subject.
