    Spurgeon Wynn isn’t walking through that door.

    Jackson isn't great, but I don't think Childress really gave him a chance. He wasn't allowed to throw the ball down the field at all. If he can't do that, then fine bench him, but at least give him a shot during the game.

    It's time for Childress to join Culpepper ... in retirement!

    Those running backs and that offensive line can make a marginal QB look decent.

    Both of them are poor choices, but I think a passer who can hit an open receiver consistently is much more valuable than a guy who can run for a first down. Especially if you already have a strong running game.

    Tommy Kramer is across the street at Hubert's though.

    The 2000 Ravens had a better secondary, too.

    Thank you, Brad Childress... now I can actually enjoy my Sundays watching Vikings football.
    Just let Frerotte manage the game and I think they can at least make the playoffs this year.

    Ahhh, the 37-year-old mediocre journeyman gritty, gutty white-boy quarterback, the darling of dimwit coaches and dumbass fans everywhere.
