What the hell was that? Once again we played well enough to win but lost due to stupid freaking flukish type turnovers.

Our Special teams have really gone into the shitter, they used to be so good, what happened? Also if you are a kick returner and the opposing kicker body slams you, it's time to take up ping pong or something. Get rid of Walters he is an embarrassment.

Our O-Line looked as bad as everyone else has been saying this week. It thought up untill today that they had been getting a bad rap, today they deserve anything they get.

Our Offensive play calling is horrible, Sherm Lewis needs to be sent packing, affirmative action means equal opportunity, not inferior ability being given more then fair opportunity.

Kailee Wong is horrible, as usual.

Oh well, we choked another one away, we can still bounce back, but the margin for error is rapidly dissapearing.

Again I didn't get out to see the game but kept up with the action(?) on the computer. Ugh!

from Purplehaze:

It Just Doesn't Get Better

This week we rolled into New Orleans and were rolled by the Saints 28- 15.

In the first quarter we did manage to score a touchdown, but the Saints defense set the tone of the game with three sacks and an interception. By the end of the game the Saints would have 6 sacks, the interception, intentional grounding on Culpepper and defensive scoring.

The Vikings looked terrible from top to bottom. We managed 34 yards rushing! Culpepper did have a big day with over 300 yards in the air, but it didn't matter because we couldn't stop them from scoring.

The game can be summed up with one play. Carter is running for a certain touchdown when suddenly he is stripped of the ball at the three-yard line and the Saints recover it for a touchback. Nice job leader.

The bottom line is our defense is horrible (giving up 136 yards on the ground to Ricky Williams) and our offense sucks because we cannot run the ball. Green is going to have to figure something out quick before this season goes south. Nobody on this team looks like they care anymore and their performances show it. If you get a chance to see this game again watch Moss. He takes every play off. He may be great, but his attitude is becoming a cancer. Come on Vikings we want wins!

I have yet to watch the game, I'm not sure if I want to. But the OL is playing terriblr NO running game and as usual our undersized DL gets pushed around by a BIG OL. I thought we would get more pressure on the QB but we are LAST in sacks with 3. We get close but can't seem to get the QB. A mobile QB kills us hence Brooks on Sunday. We must win the next two games at home against Detroit and GB or we are FINISHED!!!
