Vikings kick it deep to Hester, who FUMBLES!!
Hester’s saying it was down. . .looked like a fumble to me.

It's Minnesota ball
At the Chicago 17 if this stands.
It looked to me like that ball was coming out before his elbow hit the ground.

chicago ball.
remember the peterson fumble a week or two ago tbhat was reviewed and was deemed not a fumble, because he his hand was still touching the ball when his knee touched

Nope. . .call overturned
Chicago gets the ball at their own 20.
Damn it.

Touchdown, Bears
Orton hits Desmond Clark, who makes it almost to the goal line when Cedric Griffin strips the ball from him. . .and the only person around to cover it is Rashied Davis. Unfortunately, he plays for the Bears.
So, the Bears score again, and the score is now 34-24.
Scoring drive took 6 plays to go 80 yards, and only took 2:48 off the clock.
Bears 34, Vikings 24, 12:12 left in the third quarter.
At some point in this game, we have to slow down and/or cover somebody. . .don’t we?

And he was facing the wrong way. Peterson just cut to the other side and the defender had to turn all the way around to see him again, by that time he was past him.

Unbelievable – did the refs cause the interceptions? Did the refs squib kick and give the ball to Chicago mid field – twice? Did the refs fumble the punt snap? Did the refs let the ball hit them on the one yard line fielding a punt? So that call is definitely the difference maker.

Well, we need three scores.
Longwell gets it from 23, and the gap “narrows” to 48-34.
Vikings’ drive goes 63 yards in 12 plays, taking 5:54, which is about 2-3 minutes more than it needed to.
Bears 48, Vikings 34, 8:59 left to 3-4.

Nope, no review
Frerotte with a 5 yard TD pass to Berrian, and the Longwell extra point closes it to. . .I can’t even believe I’m typing this. . .48-41.

First Down and game's overm but
3rd down at the 2 min warning. If they pass incomplete- its obvious (doubtful)
If they run and we hold them, we get the ball back w/ 1:20 left with no T.O’s

I’ll never do that. I’m just annoyed by all the Losing this team has had in my 19 years of existence, i’m sick of the terrible play calls by Childress.

2 games this has happened
once with TJack, and another with Frerotte
DO WE NOT PRACTICE THE 2-MINUTE DRILL!!!
Holy Freakin Shit…
1st down- sack
2nd down- interception
You could bet on this with Childress’s team
by DelawareBerserker on Oct 19, 2008 3:13 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
Absolutely
But I maintain that Special Teams and the 2-Minute drill both terrible?
Seriously, do we not practice like any other team?
I put that down to the coach. This was ridiculous
by DelawareBerserker on Oct 19, 2008 3:15 PM CDT up reply actions 0 recs
And, despite putting up 41 points today
We still haven’t had a 300-yard passing game since Culpepper did it against the Saints in Week 3 of 2005. Frerotte finished the day with 298.

We lose
by one td and our special teams gave up two ridiculously stupid tds. Just saying…
Four terrible passes for interceptions probably didn’t help much either…

i knew it i just called it. i told my friend as soon as we took the field frerotte would throw a pick. he forces to much when he is pressured. fuck it our season is done. might as well put booty out there and start developing

not the worst loss of the season…our offense actually showed some life. a couple huge plays by our ST was too much to overcome.
by jswen on Oct 19, 2008 3:18 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
I think its amazing that we even got this close after giving up those two terrible ST TDs. (lawl it looks like STDs). Those things can kill a team. Let alone twice, but we responded pretty nicely. It was just too big a hole I guess. The offense gives me hope for after the bye week, though. Defense apparently needs alot of work though.
by Frost on Oct 19, 2008 3:26 PM CDT reply actions 0 recs
That's exactly why
it’s our worst loss. Our offense scored 41 points… WITHOUT any defensive points! And we STILL can’t win… against the Bears!! That game was just plain absurd. I guess it kind of makes up for the past couple weeks. We played so terrible but we still won both games. We finally make some big plays and put up big numbers against an awful offensive team and then can’t win. The Vikings just keep us on our toes.

Football hangover
According to Childress ,when he took over this team, it was suppose to about discipline and precision. Horse Hockey
If you can get your hands on the ball you should be able to catch it no matter what!
