Question for Viking fans

[TarHeelHawk]

Why would a packer's fan know that Paul Allen does Vikings radio games? I couldn't even guess who does radio for the Packers. Just sayin'

Why wouldn't they? I know that Jeff Joniak is the Bears radio guy, and that Mitch Holthus does Chiefs games. Wayne Larrivee does Packer games.

Paul Allen may be a huge homer, but he calls a great game, and his calls get regular air on SportsCenter during the season.

Question for Viking fans --> Are you ready for the Cutler to destroy you?

(that should spark some discussion!)

Who's he going to throw to though? A glorified return man? O wait, I forgot about the big Bears WR signing in the off-season...

Well favre will be in minnesota...so why are we having this convo

 

[hiwhatis]

you guys are insane. some vikings fans drive me insane with their stupidity
1. T-Jack outplayed Gus by so much it was rediculous, should've been back starting by week 5
2. Jay Cutler is an idiot, don't care how good of an arm he has, not a winner
3. Favre is a proven winner, he got the job done in a very tough division last year with a much worse jets team and a torn shoulder muscle. how will he do worse with the vikings this year in a much easier division?

Farve is a proven wiener! (Fixed your mistake)

Would Rather see Sage start

Give me a guy who could complete more than 60% of his passes and the Vikes win the Super Bowl

Depends what color jersey he completes them to.....:wink:

 

[ricochet]

Favre would be top 10.

Favre is no longer a top 10 quarterback. I don't even know if his is in the top half of the league anymore. He might be better than anybody else the Vikings have, although if you just looked at their ability today and ignored all past history I think Sage might beat him out.

very true :smile:

 

[Cy's Taxi]

if it means deep into the playoffs this year, then yes... but the odds of that happening are astronomical... so i'd rather have sage the rage... but that's just me...

I agree.... so why is he stalling once again with any kind of decision then?

I'll tell you why... he LOVES the attention.... period. He loves to have his ego stroked big time. He loves everyone on their hands and knees begging him to come back.

Truth is however... he looks like an idiot and a big prima donna spoiled baby. And it will tear the Vikes apart at the seams... just wait.

+1
Favre will play. He is also just drawing this out so he can miss out on training camp. He wants to play but doesn't want to go through camp.

 

[Erik4Cy]

Elway said Favre should play. This is news. I swear it. I am ESPN...let's go check twitter tracker...

 

[Mr Janny]

Here's a blast from the past. I'll have to admit, I was not on board with Minnesota acquiring Favre. It nearly made me sick to think of it. Yet, here we are, 4 months later, and he's proven a ton of people wrong, including me.

Question for Viking fans --> Are you ready for the Cutler to destroy you?

Wait for it.... :biggrin:

Cutler is way better than Favre (currently)... and at least Cutler knows that he wants to play football.

The Vikes SHOULD have went after Cutler or Cassell IMO. The Vikes would definately be considered a SB caliber team with either of those 2 guys. Favre could potentially destroy this team.

I wanted Cutler, and, to be honest, I would take Vick.....just not Favre.

Favre is no longer a top 10 quarterback. I don't even know if his is in the top half of the league anymore. He might be better than anybody else the Vikings have, although if you just looked at their ability today and ignored all past history I think Sage might beat him out.

Uhhhhh no. Brett Favre does NOT make the Vikes the SB favorite. This guy is a mid level NFL QB right now... at best. He's probably not even better than Sage... it's close. He's not what you think he is.

Hilarity!

yep.

right on point with this.

Looks like you really hit that nail on the head.

 

[ICCYFAN]

Thank goodness I didn't weigh in on this one or I'd be on the wall-of-shame as well! I didn't think he was "cooked" as evidenced by the fact I drafted him as a back-up in my 14-team fantasy league, but I certainly didn't see these results coming! It's still my hope that the Packers make it into the playoffs as a wild-card and get a third shot at Brett & Company...

 

[Mr Janny]

Well, my point in bumping this thread was not to call out individual posters for their statements. My point was to show how wrong the vast majority of us were when Favre signed. Brett has proven nearly everyone wrong. Any person who says that they predicted the season he is having is flat out lying.

Yep...bastard. :wink:
