Vikings won, they would have won by more if Troy Williamson could catch.They are lucky Sharper can hit though.
Yeah, Troy Williamson really disapointed me since hes on my fantasy team with the drops, although he appears to be Johnson's main target so im going to keep him around for a bit and see how he does.The Redskins looked rather rusty on offense. LaDell Betts proved that he is not an everydown back (Why the hell did Duckett not even get a carry? lol)Brandon Lloyd did absolutely nothing. Did he even have a catch?Clinton Portis looked decent, but I think the shoulder was still bothering him. I would expect to see him in there next week though. And the sooner the Redskins bench Brunell for Campbell, the better. Because is there really any person who can honestly tell me that they think Mark Brunell could take them to the Super Bowl? I dont think so.Washington definately has some work to do, but you could kinda tell this was coming from the preseason where they looked like crap too.
Damn sweet game. I was sweating at the end when Santana got that big catch.Kluwe nearly blew the game for us. Awful punts and a dropped extra point. I think Troy did pretty good actually. I was impressed he even did that well. I thought he'd be a total piece of crap. But 3 dropped balls does suck. Imagine if he'd caught them all though. 120+ yards for him if he'd gotten them. And on that last drive were he got the big third down catch. If the DB hadn't grabbed his face mask that kid would have been gone. Third downs were key on both sides. We got a lot of big ones on offense and stopped I think all of them including some really huge ones in the second half. First half we weren't so good at them though. Great game boys. Now lets get them Carolina cats!

Did you see Derrick Frost? :LMAO: :LMAO: :LMAO: :LMAO: Anywho, the Vikings played a terrific game and our defense looked like shit. I loved the ending, but John Hall is too old and useless now. New kicker and punter time!
I need Brad Johnson to get hurt. I have a $5 bet with a friend that Johnson won't start for them all season. I'm going to have to pull a Tonya Harding if week 16 comes around and he's still their starter.
I'm with Capt. Comeback, the Vikings played real well and our D was NOT up to last year's par... Gregg Williams, what the hell?I wouldn't say it's time to bench Brunell but I'd definitely put Campbell in if Brunell individually loses us a game.
Brunell had 10 hours in the pocket and threw the ball out of bounds like 400 times... that pissed me off more than all those bad calls (seriously).At this point I wish we never would've hired Saunders. I'm 99% sure we would've won with Gibbs calling the plays because our offense knows that system and it's fairly easy to learn. Saunder has over 700 pages of plays and our offense needs like four more weeks until they [the offense] can win us the game.

Just needs to be benched for at least one game. But... the things some people might do for 5 bucks. :whistling:
It was a good game all night long and the missed field goal at the end blew the Redskins chances of getting the win. Hall won't last long if he keeps that up. I do understand that the pressure would be TERRIBLE but thats what they get paid to do and it shouldn't be much of a problem. Good start to the season for the Vikings.
