There were some things that we Viking fans did learn in the preseason game #2. It is so hard to cheer for your team in the preseason. I know it is football after all, but it is NOT the same as the season. We Viking fans know in the end it does not matter who wins or loses in these games.
One thing that we learned, is that the Vikes offensive line needs to learn how to block a little better. Man just look at Willis and company planting Favre to the turf. I bet that Chilly was holding his breath after that hit. Favre was on the field for a grand total for 4 plays and that was all he needed. I am hoping that the line was do a better just in pass and run blocking the next game. If not it many be a LONG season for Favre and the Vikings.
The Vikes need to keep Joe Webb on the team no matter what it take. If Webb is unable to beat out Sage for the #3 QB spot. Put him at WR/RB spot or something. There is no way that he will be available to Vikes as a practice squad dummy. He has to much talent for other team to pass up on him. He is a stud, he has the athletic ability and instincts that you are looking for in a football player.Here is Webb running for a 48 yard TD.
I am hoping that EJ is in football shape. He looked a little rusty in last nights game, but that was expected with this being his 1st real action since his injury. He may need some work on his pass coverage, because the TEs were getting behind him to get the first downs the offense needs to continue the drives.
Overall it was an okay game, but the Vikes last 15-0 in the end. Just remember 2 more games of worthless football and then the fun starts...oh yeah and the ulcers.
SKOL VIKINGS!!!!
