How did they let that happen???

Reminds me of Peytons loss to Ravens in 2012. Horrible way to lose....one guy makes the worst play at the worst time. Feel for Brees because he might not get another shot at a SB like it was lining up for him this year.

Good friend of mine, long time vike fan, made the trip from NC to the game! Congrats and happy for him!

 

Wow, I would have loved that. My cousin's wife works for Twin Cities Orthopedics. She put in her name for tickets just for me. She did not win but I would have gone if I got tickets. (I live in NY)

I havent watched the Vikes much this year but Keenum throws a lot of balls falling backwards and up for grabs.  Has he done that all year???  He’s gotta get that in check.

He does that a lot...........a little Jay Cutler in him..but he's simply gotten better at it

I have not had dinner because I was so nervous. I probably won't eat tonight. 

You can eat and drink now. I am like that when the Colts or Cubs play in huge games. I cant eat until the game is over. If we end up winning the party begins. That is one of the best wins in Minny history. Gets you to the Final 4.

Could the NFL finally have a host city's team in the Super Bowl?

It would make sense.  Not many would want to go up to FRIGID Minnesota for a Super Bowl.  But you better believe the Vikes fans will be running through the streets regardless of the temperature. I think it makes great financial sense to have the Vikes in the SB.

He does.  Keenum throws those types of passes and the receivers have bailed him out all year. Many fans who are concerned about his accuracy wanted Sam Bradford or Teddy to play in place of Keenum. Both are more accurate than Keenum but Keenum has that killer instinct which Bradford certainly does not have.

    • Okay, I know this is a Mr. Obvious post, but bear with me.  What else do you have to do during the dead season, lol?   As a Buckeye, I appreciate how good CJ Stroud is.  In MHO CJ had better WRs and RBs when he was at THE OSU than he has in Houston.   So how did TTUN beat us (bad) two years in a row when he was in Columbus?  Simple, their Offense was way better than our Defense.   Bottom line - the Colts D doesn't have to be great.  Average will be good enough - IF the Colts offense is as good as we think it could be and play ball control, has extended drives, and limits the other teams possessions.  And maybe that's the plan considering Ballard not being too concerned with improving the DB rooms.   (Sure, it would be nice to have a great D.  No argument there)    
    • Hey Everyone,   So, I just caught wind of Goodson's apology letter after dropping that short pass from Minshew against the Texans last season. Here's my humorous take on the situation:   "Dear Fans, Coaches, Teammates, and Supporters,   I'm writing to apologize for buttering up that short pass in the most critical moment against the Texans. Look, I know I'm the backup running back, but hey, I'm usually good for catching those short throws - emphasis on 'usually'. My bad for turning a routine play into a blooper reel moment.   To my teammates, sorry for making you wonder if I was secretly playing for the other team. Next time, I'll practice catching more than just footballs thrown by the water boy.   To the coaches, maybe let's reconsider throwing short passes to guys who have hands that are more slippery than a greased pig at the county fair. Just a suggestion.   And to the fans, thanks for turning my drop into a meme. I promise to work on my catching skills so I can make highlights, not lowlights, next season.   Sincerely, Goodson (aka the running back who should stick to running)"   Okay, maybe I exaggerated a bit, but you get the gist. Let's hope Goodson has been hitting those catching drills hard this offseason!
    • I remember looking for highlights of TJ after we drafted him.  I kept finding videos of him following OJ Howard into the endzone.  Not sure if Howard was his responsibility, but it didn't paint a promising picture.
    • Ballard,   So, yeah, about that whole "bust" thing—I guess the cat's out of the bag. Turns out, I'm more of a popcorn fart than a thunderclap. My bad.   When you drafted me, I thought I was gonna be the Colts' next big thing. You know, sacking quarterbacks, making highlight reels, maybe even getting my face on a cereal box someday. But instead, I've been about as useful as a screen door on a submarine.   I've watched the tapes, Coach. I've seen the memes. They're comparing my NFL career to a hangover—starts off with high hopes, and ends with regret and a lot of Gatorade. And honestly, I get it. I'm like that guest who shows up to a party uninvited and ends up eating all the chips.   So, here's my mea culpa. I apologize for not living up to the hype. For every missed tackle, every missed sack, and that one time I accidentally tackled our own quarterback in practice (sorry, Philip). I'm like the guy who brings a guitar to a party and insists on playing Wonderwall—I'm annoying and not nearly as good as I think I am.   But hey, I'm not giving up. I'm hitting the gym, studying film (mostly bloopers at this point), and practicing my touchdown dance for when pigs finally fly. I promise to work harder and maybe, just maybe, I'll redeem myself and earn my place in the Hall of Mediocrity.   Thanks for believing in me, and letting me live my dream for 4 years straight whilst simultaneously producing nothing for your team. I'll make you proud yet, even if it's just by being the team's MVP of Bust Central, and we aren't talking bronze heads.    Sincerely, Ben "The Bust" Banagous (Not sponsored by Gatorade yet, but a guy can dream)
    • if you scream MODS! in anything I write,  I might get in trouble. hahaha
