Is the Big Ben thing confirmed? I thought it was a game time decision?

If so, let the Dennis Dixon era begin.

In the words of the immortal Yul Brynner:


So let it be written! So let it be done!

I dont get it though if he can dress why is he not playing. I mean its not like normal injury where its based on how the body part feels. With a head injury it should be you can dress and start or not dress at all.

It appears that he was getting headaches from practice. Not unusual...but the docs are taking precautions anyway.

LOVE IT!

No matter what happens this year, i'm having a blast this season.

11-0.......................

That is, until the Titans play them ....I'm glad the Colts won today. I had them winning in my pool. Was scared when I saw the score 20-7 in favor of the Texans in the 3rd quarter though.

I like the current ones as well, but those throwbacks are sharp.

C'mon man! The current Vikings uniforms are awful! The upside down Nike swoosh on the pants? The dumbass piping down the sides of the jersey.

TERRIBLE!

Agreed!

As a harcore Vikings fan, this hurts me to say it but I must.

Adrian Peterson is a bit over rated. I would trade him straight up for the best running back in the league, the Titans Chris Johnson......and I'd be the one getting a steal.

That supposed to be a horn as far as i'm concerned.

Nope i like em, just not as much as the throwbacks.

Yeah but if he is not ok to start he is not ok to play at all IMO. The funny part is that if they had originally said it was a concussion he would not have been allowed to suit up. Thats why Warner didnt suit up.

AP was playing hurt today and last week i believe. (don't bother me any as Chester Taylor is great and a starter anywhere else)

Cards and Bengals up next (better foes)

 

[karamazov80]

YES! Bring back those throwbacks permanently! The current uniforms are terrible.

Funny, I saw the end of that game and didn't even know they were wearing throwbacks. How different can purple with a horn on your helmet be?

I'm a bit concerned about our next two games.

Same, now the anxiety comes back (although i'm confident we can take both)

No, not the helmets. I'm talking about the uniforms.

Actually, I'm confident about the Bungholes but I don't know which Arizona team will show up?

 

[OSCORP]

Winfield should for sure be back. (i would think)

 

[karamazov80]

No, not the helmets. I'm talking about the uniforms.

Weren't the outfits purple in the past and present?

 

[OSCORP]

Yes, but the design scheme is different (they've always looked similar though)

Those helmets they played in today were also a darker purple (nothing major)

 

[SixMillionDollarMan Guy]

Weren't the outfits purple in the past and present?

Yes, the colors are the same. I'm talking about the design. See my post #3205 for specifics.

If you say so

That's as dominating a performance as I've seen this year. Sure, the Bears aren't exactly a playoff caliber team, but still. . .damn impressive. I'm most impressed by how well Favre is still playing. I figured he would fizzle out like he did last year, but that O-line is frighteningly good. On the level of the Colts O-line, in my opinion.

I was supporting the Saints by saying that the game was not over yet. Yeah, that was an impressive comeback by the Vikings today over the Bears. Brett Favre has had a "rebirth" at 40 years old so to speak. Pretty amazing the caliber of playing he's at now.

I think that the Saints have a pretty amazing offensive line to have protected Drew Brees as much as they have this season. Sure some defenders have slipped in and sacked him. But, not that much.
