So, what do the Vikes do at QB next year?

Who knows. 12th pick or so I believe? Maybe stick with the Webb/Jackson combo platter and grab an O-Lineman for now (our offensive line was kind of shit this year) and wait to see what happens at the end of next year. It's tough because in one hand I'd like them to trade for someone or sign a free agent QB, depending on who is out there (I have this sneaking suspicion McNabb will end up here) since All Day is in his prime right now and we should take advantage, but I also hate going balls out and compromising the future.

Anyone else rooting for Seattle just to see a 7-9 team make the playoffs? A couple years of this and they might actually do something about it.

I want the Rams to win because Seattle is one of those teams I just can't even muster up a nanosecond of "I give a damn" about them. Although now that you mention it, it would be funny seeing a 7-9 team make it.

Yes, haha. I would at least like to see the worst division winner not be guaranteed the #4 seed. Maybe have them drop to #5 so they have to play on the road.

Bradford's a cool guy, though. His big-ticket purchase with his 50M was a ping-pong table.
 
Bradford's going to be great, a franchise guy. But I can't get over a 7-9 team not only going to the playoffs, but hosting the first game.

If Seattle wins, the 7-9 Seahawks will HOST the Saints. The Saints will have to travel to blow out Seattle. Sure, the 8-8 Rams could do the same, but 7-9 would just be that much worse.

I like the guy a lot. I hope he's smart enough to realize that $50M, call it 25 after taxes and whatever, is at least $1M for the rest of his life on nearly risk free investments. Shit, even on that, he can buy a lot of ping pong tables.

Yeah it's total BS on a competitive level. However, I'm sure the owners will never sign up for something that changes hosting because it's more likely to screw them out of money than help them.

Yeah that 44% completion percentage and 59 QB rating rocks. Has a good future as a Wildcat/Back-up QB.

Tebow 859 yds, 57-118 7tds 5ints 199yds rushing 3tds 2fbls 0lost in the last 3 games

thats 1058yds offense 10tds and 5 turnovers in his first 3 career starts on the team that finished 2nd last in the NFL.

Bradfords first 3 games 655yds 5tds 5ints

Sanchez in 09 606yds 4TDs 2ints 1rushTD 4 fumbles 1 lost

Ryan in 08 511yds 2td-2int

Manning in 98 685 2td 8int

Find a rookie QB who put up those types of numbers in their first starts on a team that surrendered over 95 points in those games.

Also a rookie that made a 17 point comeback in his first starts
 
If anyone's watching now and wants to talk about Bradford's Comp%, give me a fucking break. He's putting the ball where a professional WR should catch it, and these guys all have hands like feet or are so dumb they don't even look for the ball.

I mean, you don't even have to cover these guys. The receivers will do the job themselves.

Umm you only have half of Tebows stats to be correct.

He is actually 40/81 for 651 yards passing. 5 TDs and 3 INTs. 199 yards rush, 3tds and 1 fumble.
 
I won't believe it until there's 0:00 on the clock that the hawks made the fucking playoffs...................

Still as good or better relative to Bradford.

BTW, I'm not trying to say one is better than the other. To be honest I think looking at rookie QB stats and trying to make heads or tails out of it is ludicrous.
