Hate Vikings Thread

I agree he had no real stability at QB, but that's partly his fault for getting himself run out of town. Other than Tom Brady, he had Randall Cunningham and Daunte Culpepper, who were pretty damn good themselves.

Dude, Cunningham had a fluke season for the most part that magical 1998 year: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Randall_Cunningham#Minnesota_Vikings
And please, spare me the talk about Daunte. He was never a really great quarterback (although I know he led in many statistics and was high in fantasy because of it). He was not a pocket quarterback. If Moss had Brady all those years who knows how many more records he'd hold.

There's really still no comparison. Rice was lightyears ahead of Moss.

Couldn't agree more. When it comes to results on the field, Moss can't hold Rice's jock. If you are talking about natural ability, Moss is probably the guy....which not only goes to show you what a waste much of his career has been when one speculates on how good he could have been and also speaks volumes about Rice's dedication and work ethic. Rice by a mile.

Also, that '98 Vikings offense was great no doubt but no one can match the "Greatest Show on Turf" Rams offense of 2000-2001.

i like vikings as in the scandinavian nutters who go about with swords and kill people and then form metal bands.

I have no opinion on the american football team.

But i'd probably like them more if they had swords and kill people and form metal bands.
 
Rice was was also generally with a primary QB his whole career, and both - Young and Montana - are among the greatest of all time.

Moss has never had any real stability for his assault; the best was clearly Brady but that was short lived. One of the years he was with Brady he broke the single-season record for TDs. :2 cents:

If you take Jerry Rice out of the equation, the 49ers offense becomes an absolute joke:

Below is a list of the 49ers offensive ranks by year first with rice, then if you take him out and factor in a league average receiver.

1988: 7th, 15th
1989: 1st, 12th
1990: 8th, 15th
1991: 3rd, 8th
1992: 1st, 9th
1993: 24th, 28th (last)
1994: 1st, 16th
1995: 1st, 10th
1996: 3rd, 8th
1998: 3rd, 7th

Moss at his very best, under the same rules as above:
1998: 1st, 4th
1999: 5th, 7th
2007: 1st, 6th

Without Moss at his very best, there would've been a 5 level drop-off in production offensively. Rice, at his WORST was a 4 level drop-off. Yes, Brady broke the record, however if you look at that season, it was an all-time high for the Patriots in effective running yards, meaning the offense probably would have been very good even if simply running the ball. Rice wasn't a product of a system as Moss has been shown to be, and in the end, it's not even a close call.
 
the vikings are a bad team this year

QB- is done he has given up on the season
coach- complete A-hole deserves to get fired
management- why would you let the talent of moss go??

Fuck Moss, Johnson, Owens and the rest of those attention whores that all seem to be wide outs. This isn't their league no matter how much they cry.

As for the Vikings I don't hate them half as much as the cowboys, and don't hate the cowboys half as much as the Sabres.
 
Jesus, the news has this as their first story? I'm increasingly geting pissed off by this nonsense. I am just gonna let my boy Dave tool me around downtown and the first person I see with a Vikings jersy on I'm gonna punch in the mouth, :mad:
