Minnesota Vikings At Chicago Bears - Second Half Open Thread

Hey, remember when we thought this game was going to be competitive? You know, like an hour and a half ago or so?
This is just what the Vikings do in Sunday night games, it appears. The Bears' passing offense was in the bottom quarter of the NFL coming into this one, but Jay Cutler and company have ripped the Minnesota Vikings thus far this evening. The Bears' rush defense was pretty terrible coming into this one, but the Vikings haven't been able to get Adrian Peterson on track in this one.
The result is a 26-3 halftime deficit, and a game in which the Minnesota Vikings haven't even looked remotely competitive.
I'd hold out hope that the Vikings can turn it around in the second half, but from what I've seen this far, there's no reason for me to believe this is going to be the case.
At least Ted is happy, it would appear. . .the Cardinals appear to be poised to move on to the World Series as they're playing Home Run Derby with the Milwaukee Brewers. (Oh, no, something bad might happen to a sports team from Wisconsin! The humanity of it all!)
So, here we are for the second half. Try to enjoy it, ladies and gentlemen.

What was that?
I guess we can officially say this season is a wash. Time for the Ponder era to begin….
Finally a new thread. Must be my connection once we reach about 1000 it slows down to the point I have to log out
Hope the second half turns around might have an early night if it doesn’t

Can we please make a freaking change at QB
What is it going to take to make Frazier wake up….
We lost this game, accept it and move forward to aleast appease your fan base.
Why is anyone going to even want to pay for a new stadium with the team playing like they have their heads in the sand?
Its Musgrave
McNabb is at least hitting wr where they can catch it tonight. Its Musgrave who needs to go. Musgrave is still calling plays from that notecard that he made up with the crayolas his mom gave him. he never had the credentials to be an OC
To all Vikings and Staff....
“Please take a courtesy Flush at Halftime to get rid of all the CRAP on this team!!!!!”
who's left to play then?
AP, Allen, Robinson..?
Time to turn Mc out to pasture

Never hire a Head Coach named Les.
Les Steckel? Les Frazier? Les is not more.

Peterson’s having his worst.

Jerry Angelo
Better sign Forte soon, or he’s gonna get some offers
I just don't see anything.
The only players that seem to still give a crap on D are getting double teamed on the line every single snap or are getting a run play away from one of them.
Frazier apparently declined to give a halftime interview
I guess he’s ashamed. Which is better than not being ashamed of this.
Worst game of the season.

They are downplaying his injury
Plantar fasciitis is a serious thing for a guy half his weight. Chronic foot pain on a 300+ lb frame? That’s not good.
Yes I was thinking about that...
… maybe that is the reason. Then, someone else needs to step up cause he aint getting it down. On that last play he got a good rush but fell down.

The movie "Bridesmaids" is boring, pointless, and stupid.
That has nothing to do with the Vikings; I just felt like typing it.
My fiance has decided “Bridesmaids” is the “Citizen Kane” of our generation, and is watching it incessantly. I told her it watching it was like having a cavity filled without enough novocaine, and I stand by that statement.
Watching “Bridesmaids” is also like watching the Vikings this season, so there, it is relevant.

you can't blame mcnabb for getting crushed by that pathetic excuse for an o-line.

He has been terrible all season
Even if it isn’t entirely his fault, we shouldn’t be playing someone we know isn’t going to be here next year. It is a complete waste of time.
we only have 3 good players
allen, harvin and AP
the rest shouldn’t have jobs in the NFL

Don’t know about you guys, but this is possibly the worst Vikings loss I can remember for a while. Getting beat 41-0 by the Giants in the NFC championship game probably was worse. Apart from that??

By the way we never had a chance of getting Cutler
Cutler grew up in Chicago as a Bears fan. When the opportunity arose to force his way out of Denver, there was only one team that he was seriously considering going to, his favorite team, the Bears. If the Vikings had bid on him, they would have only have made him more expensive for Chicago.
Deal with it.

His stats might say 19 completions but most of them have been off topic throws with no YAC available.

Can’t get it into the end zone, missing field goals. The money has been withdrawn by Hester.

They tend to..
Choke when they know the whole nation is watching…
Bet they’d go 16-0 if they knew they only had to play in front of the fans.
Yeah forgot that part
It’s like throwing them into a brightly lit pool with a donut in each hand after midnight. There I fixed it.

Ponder warming up?
HE’s trying to remind Frazier there are other QB’s on the roster
So... 1-15 anyone?
Who will we bother drafting then?

5-11

I agree
but only if they get back some of these banged up players.
Injuries have turned this team into a bunch of rented mules

Unacceptable, in fact he's also taking the blame for Occupy Wall Street.

Watch them put in Ponder, but not throw another pass.
The rest of the game will be Toby Gerhart carries.

With the O line so bad...
Dunno. Might be for the best.
naw. not just mcnabb. O line is shit and defense had a bad night.. Of course Mcnabb is the scapegoat
I don't think Frazier taking out McNabb is him giving up on McNabb.
I think he’s just giving up on this game. And saying “Fuck it, why not?”

In the grand scheme of things, I know this doesnt matter, but
I thought we should of gone for an onside kick after APs TD. What the hell did we have to lose there? I remember Tampas HC Morris called for an onside after they scored on us early in the 2nd half and it just sparked their team…again I know it doesnt mean shit at this point, but its all about the attitude your leader conveys to the team. Frazier may get it in the future, but right now he doesnt have it.
The Vikings are a vacuum cleaner
They suck.
What happened? Did they actually think Chicago would come out with the same game plan they played last week? Really, did they not think the Bears would make changes to protect Cutler? Did they not think the Bears would put 8 or 9 guys in the box to stop AD?
Gods, it looks like the Vikes can’t game plan any better than my grandma.
Frazier and McNabb boxing on sideline
and no one cares
Holy shit...
Why hasn’t he been in all game?
Best play I’ve seen a QB make all year…
by Eric The Viking on Oct 16, 2011 9:54 PM CDT reply actions
woot woot
Go Ponder, you’re playing even better then McNabb with just 1 pass.
What is best in life?
Crush your enemies, see them driven before you, and Christian Ponder behind center.
McNabb still smiling on the sideline
because we’re paying his washed up ass $5 million this year! what a waste
I don't understand what happened?
why can’t Mcnabb do that ?
Ponder is making Mcnabb look like a rookie!
Woah!
Forget everything I’ve said defending McNabb. (maybe not everything, but most of it)
That looked like a real QB out there!
I bet he does
He’ll rationalize that playing Green Bay isn’t a wise start for a rookie
Ponder Vs. Green Bay?
Might as well.

Let's not get TOO carried away
I like what I’ve seen from Ponder, but this game is WAY in the bag. I don’t think Chicago is bringing their A game.
Regardless....
Ponder’s leading receiver isn’t the grass at least!

It may be garbage time
but he showed some moves. Plenty of times he had defenders that seemed to have him dead to rights and he got out of there. McNabb would’ve just taken the sack.

Is there any wonder why we got our heads kicked in?
by Eric The Viking on Oct 16, 2011 10:28 PM CDT reply actions
I can't really fault not giving it to him.
He got 39 yards. At one point, he was 8 carries for 16 yards. That’s outright sad for a starting RB.
