They are taking it well in Tampa. A radio station payed for this billboard. Tampa don't have much to look forward to. The Schiano Freeman relationship could spell the end for Schiano. For a while it looked like Tampa had their QB and could build around him. Now they are starting from scratch again. The Panthers are looking ok. If Newton can hold it together maybe a wildcard spot is on the cards. One other thing that needs to be fired in Tampa is that bloody cannon. Commentators nearly packed themselves when it would go off for a first down. Tampa didn't get a TD until the 4th quarter so they had plenty of ammo to get rid of. So at every chance they just fired the thing. A first down isn't worthy of a cannon salute. I do note that the vikings horn can be annoying as well. But it doesn't sound like a bomb has gone off.

Agree about the panthers. They have put a couple of good games together but I can't trust newton yet. The freeman signing seems to be more of a gm and coach trying to salvage a season and keep their jobs rather then a master plan. Head office seems to be frustrated that in the off season we added Jennings and Patterson as receivers but ponder didn't show anything. Is Geno going to take it up to your boys? Should be a good game.

San Fran Green Bay Seattle Pretty Straight forward games this week. Jets and Bengals could be the pick of the bunch. Or if a flogging is more your style Green Bay at Minnesota should be a massacre. We lost to the browns at home. Imagine what Rodgers will do to us?

Yep ponder is back for this week. Vikings fans probably take 3 guernsey's to the game. One for each QB. Does anyone have favre's number? I might give him a call and see what he is up to.

Ponder is a good team QB. By that I mean with AP and a our defense we were able to get that wildcard. But Ponder could never take the game on and win it off his own arm. The only deep throw I remember from him was last year against your packers when AP was going for the rushing record. Can your boys keep it together injury wise to go after the NFC North title again?

I'd be happy not to take a QB in the first round next year. Ponder was a pick 12 and as i'm sure you know a first round QB who fails can set your team back years. Yeah I meant Manziel. Looks to be a little [censored] who needs a smack in the mouth. Great talent though.

NFL
Yep it's a bit of a shambles at the moment. Our defense and AP set up Ponder in a lot of games but this year AP and our defense is not the greatest. Is Menzel eligible for the draft this year? I think he is a little twerp and a JJ Watt tackle would be great to see.

If Ponder comes back next week it's just musical chairs. 3 QB's in 3 weeks is not a good look. Ponder can connect with Rudolph our TE but they are short passes. He can hit Simpson for 10 yards but he can't hit Jennings or Patterson on any pass 15+ yards. I thought it was rough to sit him in week 3. I think the Vikes head office believe that after last years 10-6 record we would jump to a 12-4 record and take the division. I never saw that happening and predicted us playing like last years Detroit. They were up in 2011 and last year they were very ordinary. I have no idea who should be our QB for the rest of the year and I don't think the coaches do either.

NFL
AP with 28 yards. He usually does that in his sleep on one carry. Turnovers killed the vikes and Freeman couldn't settle into the game. Giants breathe a sigh of relief and get their first win. Vikings and packers next week. God help me.

NFL
From the highlights of the game it looked like a both teams wanted blood. The panthers defender celebrating while Bradford is rolling around in pain isn't a good look. There aren't many QB's out there. According to some there is Tebow and Tebow and another option could be Tim Tebow.

NFL
Jets would be wrapped the bills got up over Miami as well. The Pats will be around the mark due to their division. The Jets will drop a game here or there and Miami and Buffalo can't find consistent form. Another Packer win and another injury. Finley went down and it didn't look good at all. They think he will be ok but it looked a little scary for a while. The vikes need to win so they can start the same QB two weeks in a row. If Freeman fails then what? Back to Ponder or Cassel? Our defense is awful this year so it's not all a QB problem. The Giants 0-7 is unthinkable. Giants fans must have that pale shocked looked on their face as if they woke up in a 'The walking dead' episode. Gorgoroth must have that look on his face as well. Sorry about Bradford. Is it Tebow time?

NFL
Bloody Pats stuffed at my tips. Brady to Gronk all day would have won them the game. Brady looked out of sync with his receivers. Brady having a not good but not too bad performance reminds me of seeing Ablett Snr only kick 4 goals. You always anticipate more. Those Bengals look to be playoff bound. Dalton had a good day by the looks of it. Has he improved or is his regular season numbers always pretty good?

Just keep throwing to gronk Tom.

Our division will stay tight no doubt about it. Vikes have already lost to the bears and lions away so the return games are must wins. I'm happy this game is on Monday night as Freeman has that freakish talent that could be great to watch. Or we get the worst QB in regards to stats this year as he was when he started at Tampa bay. If he does play well for a month the bucs coach schiano? Will get the flick.

NFL
I'm taking it one week at a time. I'm probably winning because my Vikings are horrible to watch. Everyone else on here is concentrating on their teams. I'm doing the opposite.

NFL
Packers and Rams would hope for wins to keep up in their divisions. If the Jets beat the Pats heads will explode in New York. A win in Detroit could give the Bengals a little breathing room in the AFC North if the ravens lose in Pittsburgh. Some divisions are taking shape very early. The NFC South is a no contest. The saints have it to lose. Other divisions won't be so clear for the whole year. My Vikes start their third QB on monday night football against the awful Giants. The problem is the Vikes are just as bad and another new QB won't change the bad secondary and the terrible offensive line that last year helped AP get to where he did. Freeman Vs Eli could mean about 15 interceptions for the game. Chargers Patriots Dallas

I couldn't comprehend what AP or anyone else in that situation goes through. For him to play was remarkable. Rogers Play action TD was a pretty thing to watch. A few injuries to your boys though.

Bad week for the vikes. Adrian peterson's 2 year old son to his ex was physically abused and died. Pretty horrible news and they lost to the panthers at home. I'd say it would take a miracle by the new messiah freeman to get us back in contention. Didn't see the saints pats game but will have to watch it. Bengals, packers, chiefs, 49ers and rams get up. I'm feeling lonely.

Got to see the last quarter at work. I thought Manning was in his game saving mode as he has done so many times before. Nek Minute interception and game over. Bloody Bears keep winning and Giants keep losing. Your right Jets fans will be over the moon with the year they and the Giants are having.

Green Bay Bengals Detroit. All NFC north teams should win this week which doesn't help my vikings. Saints at Patriots will be a dead set cracker as will the Jags at Denver. The scoreline at Denver should read like Round 2 Melbourne Vs Essendon. A lot of talk about QB's fighting to keep their jobs. Schaub at Houston, Ponder at Vikes, Newton who has done very little after his rookie year. Matt Ryan will be without Jones for the year and Eli Manning would be furious at the Giants record.

What to say about the Dallas game? Romo can do no wrong until the 4th quarter. Great by the bengals and KC. The same cant be said about the giants and jags. Packers may be playing without cCay Matthews for a while. I'm trying to get my head around Freeman in purple. Will ponder go from a starting QB to a 3rd stringer? Cassel played very well in London and will probably start next week. I'd imagine freeman will need time to get used to the offensive scheme so he may be a starter soon. Our offence is pretty simple though. Hand it to AP. Repeat that 40+ times a game. Then to confuse the defense, Play action then throw it out of bounds just to remind the defense that we might throw it. Then hand it back to AP.

Gotta feel for Hoyer. Done his ACL and is out for the year. If you think AFL players talk in circles at interviews Santonio Holmes takes it to a new level. "Our offense is our offense. The Falcons' offense is theirs. We have a defense that plays against the opponent's offense. And vice versa."

With Baltimore being a bit off (Flacco 5 INT) do the browns make you nervous?

Detroit are playing the way everyone thought they would last year. Detroit were 10-6 a couple of years ago and were tipped to be the next NFC contender. I don't know what went wrong last year but I hope it starts to happen again. KC are a great story and provide hope that it can turn around. Cleveland's turn around is a head scratcher. They trade out Richardson and win 2 in a row and now sit equal on top of the AFC north. They can't even tank properly!

I'm getting lucky in the tips due to some horrible teams going around at the moment. Giants,Steelers,Bucs and Jags are very ordinary. The gap between good and bad is huge. KC Denver San Diego
