Nope, but we know Rhodes is terrible. He hasn't had a couple bad games, he's had a couple terrible seasons.

Will the Vikings step up these final four games and lay claim to the 6th playoff spot, or will they disappoint and get in by the hair on the chinny chin chins? If I were betting I'd put my money on making it as difficult as humanly possible, then they'll go out with barely a whimper in round one.

SKOL!


They fumbled around I turned the game off and they had a shot at winning that last game but fumbled again at Seattle. They will make the playoffs but yeah I don't have any expectations beyond that. I wonder how they feel about Holton Hill the person. Based on how he performed last year I'd throw him in there instead of Rhodes.

Name the best QB that's played for Zimmer while he has been here.

Might have been a good business decision on his part.

Did Rhodes play a snap? The defense played well for a change! :thumb:

Hughes started the game And made some nice plays but got hurt so Rhodes was in and then went out with his own injury. I think it was real because he didn't get burned on the play. He did still manage to allow someone to catch the ball though on the play he was injured...Harrison Smith. Lol Holton Hill played after that and the game was pretty much over at that point so they were playing a safe defense so hard to say how he looked. Hughes also looked good on a couple punt returns. The Lions Oline I think is banged up and one of their starters left the game at one point.

They didn't want to block so you might be correct.

Yeah I was busy during the game but every time I looked he was on the sidelines. I'm glad the defense played well without him for the most part.
