In.your.dreams. ;D

Although Vikes are using the preseason to mostly look at a lot of the younger undrafted type players we picked up, and trying to avoid injuries, they didn't give AD one touch last game, he is just in there working on his pass protection.

Vike's starting safety was injured and the best NT in the league (not to be confused with the best DT or DE in the league which are also Vikings ;D) didn't play one snap so they could see what Fred Evans and Letroy Guion could do. That's 2 vital possitions out.

Losing Farwell for the season is a big hit, he was runner up in pro-bowl voting for special teams last year.

And what, no comment how bad T.Jack and his 137.7 QB rating was? 8)

it was his fault batch broke his collarbone.  went the wrong way in backfield to take a handoff, batch scrambled to make a play, and got crunched.

hate!

And Parker with 18 yards on 10 carries. :P Although he has taught Mendenhall the art of fumbling already. ;) ;D

This game was brutal to watch, I gave up after the 1st half.  neither team could run it, and the steelers absolutely couldnt stop the vikes pass rush. lol (big surprise).

Biggest issue (as I have said): Timmons sucks!!!! when Foote got hurt after the fumble, they went right at him on a passing play and the goal line run.  easy TD

Peterson didn't have one game with 2 fumbles last year ... Parker did, so obviously Parker has taught him the art of fumbling. ;)

So with the first pick of the golfhos draft you selected ... Parker ... right? ;)

Why would I waste that pick on peterson when there's a far better all-around back available?  [sm_devil]

Aske's reading skills pwn3d. ;) ;D But I agree, it would be a waste of a pick to pick Parker when you could pick AD. ;D

Not pwn3d at all. You were implying I would draft parker over peterson, I simply indicated why would I pick either of them.  [sm_devil] ;)

One thing I think we could agree on:  Both teams running games (1st team offense against 1st team defense) looked pathetic.   I expected your run D to be that good... I did not expect the Steeler run D to look that good.

Yep, pretty good defense played by both 1st team defenses. 8)
