Well, here's another thing to ponder but did we make the right decision for this season not signing Aaron Rodgers to be our QB? I know this year is about seeing what we have in McCarthy, but thusfar those results have not been good and I'd really like to see this team do something in the playoffs. I think it's safe to say we'd be a better team at this point with Rodgers.

The whole premise of getting JJ up to speed with a team built to win now is/was flawed. The fact that they’re working on core principles is dumbfounding. Watching Darnold and Jones flourish while we slog through with Wentz is maddening.

What's crazy was reading the news this morning from national sources that the team was going to run with Wentz the rest of the way while JJM would sit and learn. In what universe does 12 games of Carson Wentz buy anything for this franchise? it's fucking insane. These guys are paid millions to coach and manage a team and they can't figure out who he is? There's 9 years of tape in the vault and he's on his 6th team in 6 years. He's a journeyman backup who maybe can go .500 if he has to play a few games and everything else goes right. It's just pure lunacy to decide you're going to play him the rest of way if that report was accurate.

And if so it also says they don't know what they're doing with JJM or really in general with the franchise. Is the kid just some FAFO experiment now? Buying all these free agents for a win-now type season was done why, exactly? Well anyway, welcome to the NFCN cellar. Not optimistic about a west coast road trip on 3 days rest.

You know better than to believe everything you read. How would that make any sense? I mean, at what point did Wentz ever look so amazing that a coach would be compelled to do that? I also read from the local and national reporters that 'don't be surprised if Brett Rypien is QB2'. Riiiiight. JJ's had a serious sprained ankle that KOC doesn't want to rush, that obviously doesn't really jive with a fanbase waiting to see him play. KOC is ready to bail on a kid he's pushed all his chips in with after 2 games....one in which he won? 

Wentz started the Cincy game where they got like what, 5 turnovers?....and online fickle and naive Viking Nation thought they had a 'hot hand'. lol. The bottom line is the team was a bit overrated coming into this season, especially the offensive line. I've said this for the last 2 months: this wasn't a Porsche that JJ was being lowered into the driver's seat into. 

Dimes, Uncle Sammy and even Rodgers are playing very well. The teams they are on its turn out are BETTER than the Vikings. I don't think that was even a possible consideration that that might be true before the season started.

3/3 vs 4/2?

Thats a big psychological difference for lots of fans. 

I know we're only 6 games into 17, but .500 is a place I just dont like at all...I thought nine was the floor for this squad, we'll see. Injuries are clouding everything.

Lucky thing for us is the Chargers are dealing with as many or more key injuries than we are and just got their asses whooped against Indy. We lose this game and things could start to spiral quickly

Predictions on this board were our IOL may not match-up well with their IDL guys...Sadly, we were still in it besides all the screw-ups, even at the end...

Its those kinda games that can drive a fan nuts - and are typical of .500 teams.
