I know that everyone makes a big deal how Brad Johnson doesn't lose games for you by being careful, but he has not proven himself to win any games either by exceptional play. I do think that T. Jackson would not be such a bad idea at this point, even though Bollinger is #2 on the depth chart. I don't think that you gain much in arm strength and mobility with a switch from Johnson to Bollinger. Is the risk to Jackson's development worth the chance of jumpstarting the offense?
No kidding, the D can't win all the games by itself. The problem with Brad is that he ISN'T doing what everyone says he does anymore. He DOES make mistakes and he IS making the turnovers that Dumbte Fumblepepper always made, and Brad didn't in the past. THAT is the problem, along with no receivers worth a crap and a fat TE. I've been calling for T Jack to start for 2 weeks now, since Brad starting doing his Dumbte impersonation. I look at it 2 ways: You either start T Jack and the offense gets a spark needed to actually do something, and he gets experience for next year. The other way is that you get to evaluate him and see if he's going to be the future, and if he's not, at least you can make an informed decision on whether or not to take an elite QB prospect (Quinn, Brohm) in this year's draft if they're available, rather than passing on them cause they reached horribly on T Jack in the prior draft.

that loss was just humiliating. No points after the first drive. You couldn't ask for more from the defense and after a promising first half Taylor just couldn't get anything going in the second half. Except for the TD run that was called back.

This is the SECOND time in 8 games we have gone more than 9 quarters without a touchdown.

Wow.

The Vikes definitely need to do something to shake up their offense, be it a change in personnel, play calling, or strategy. Their O is as bad as I've ever seen right now. With Chester and that O Line, there is NO excuse. Best thing that could happen to them now is Calvin Johnson, or if they got smart Quinn or Brohm would be even better.

do you really think they will finish low enough to land Johnson?

Ok, first off....they aren't drafting a QB. It's all great and wonderful that Blitzburg is writing Jackson off before he's ever had an NFL snap, but we aren't.

Also, as bad as our offense is it could be worse. Much worse. We could be Oakland.
