Jared Allen= LOSER

I wouldnt have it in for him so bad, but he is always running his big mouth. In tonights game the goat-ropper did the least amount of the 4 DE that started the game. Here are the stats.

Israel Idonije 4 tackles, 1 sack, one forced fumble

Julius Peppers 5 tackles, 1 INT, 2 pass deflections

Ray Edwards 4 tackles, 1 sack

Donkey Allen 3 tackles (and one they didnt even block him)

Once again they ran the ball right down his throat, and blocked him one-on-one with some no name tackle. He is an embarrasment to the team. I hope he goes with Tjunk when he leaves.

I'm a die-hard Packer fan, and normally root against any and everything to do with the Vikings. However, I happen to like Jared Allen. This year he wasn't his normal self, but he is a dominating force that needs to be managed from an offensive point-of-view. But even more than his performances on the football field I like him because of his personality. He seems very laid-back, easy going type of guy. Loves to be outdoors and always has fun no matter what he's doing or how the game is going. Seems more of a gentleman than some other 'stars' in the NFL today. And I like AP too. He seems to have fixed his fumbling problems and is a consistent force to be watched whenever he is in the backfield.

The Vikes do have some key elements in place, but they need to build off of them. A legit QB for one. I believe Greenway is in his last year on his contract too, it will interesting to see if they try to keep him. Work on that O-line to protect whatever QB they get, too - or else they won't have a QB very long.

I have Vick, Maclin and Jackson on my fantasy football team. What a treat to have them going against an incompetent Vikings defense in championship week! I won't start counting the cash yet...I'll wait til Philly's up 28-0. Early in the second quarter.

The season is (obviously) lost. Vikes might as well lose and get better draft position. Ryan Mallett, here we come!

Cam Newton will not be a QB in the NFL... he will be a wide out. We need a pocket passer QB (Luck or Mallett) if we ever want to dream of winning a superbowl... ie (Brady, Manning, Dilfer, etc.)

JA had a bad year on a bad team... i expect better next year...

Just like Tim Tebow won't be a QB, or Vince Young, or....

Luck will be gone with the number one, Mallett is a coinflip... not big arm strength. Anyone who has seen Cam play knows he has all the tools, and reports I have heard is he has a good head on his shoulders, well spoken, smart. I think he will be a beast in the NFL, see Culpepper before the knee blew out.

Any average quarterback like Culpepper would have been great with the supporting cast he had. If you watched Tebow on Sunday you would have seen that the things he got away with in college he couldn't do in the pros - he's too slow and the NFL is too fast. Vince Young isn't playing presently. Do we want to mention Demarcus Russell as well. You have running backs on offense to run, quarterbacks to pass - it's that simple. Of course you have the exception in Michael Vick but even he missed games this year while running the ball. The pro game is completely different than the college game and until the college coaches start preparing their quarterbacks for the pros instead of selecting the best athlete and having him run half the game the mediocrity of NFL quarterbacks will continue.

Here's what I think the Vikes should do for a QB. Trade their first round pick to Philly for Kolb and a late round pick. Kolb will be a solid NFL QB, in the lines of a Tony Romo. In my opinion it would be better to not chance it in the draft on a QB that may not work out.

Is Kolb the QB for MN? Maybe, maybe not, but I definitely agree with trading for a QB who has proven he can play, but not one who is over the hill. We may have to give up our 1st round pick and then some, but we have talent on this team right now that may not be here in three years (when a rookie has adjusted to playing at this level...if he works out at all). I would be all for a Kolb trade.

And of the four DE's mentioned, how many get double-teamed like JA? NONE. Even Peppers had one on ones all night, and he was going against the biggest joke of a LT in the NFL when he lined up on the right side... Get rid of McKinnie!

Apparently we werent watching the same game. JA was one on one the whole night! I specifically watched so I could make this post.
