The Fudgie Whine
Isn't it quite interesting.
The Packers have had an elite franchise quarterback leading their team since
1992. That's essentially 26 years of having an elite advantage over 31
other franchises. Now things are quite a bit different for the Fudge
Packers ... having to now earn an honest living ... with a whole bunch of
whining.
Hasn't anybody been watching. The Sea A-Hole Sea Cocks recorded six (6)
sack on Rodgers in the first half of game 1. Sure the Fudgies won the game
but my first thought was that Rodgers was in mortal danger with only the
commissioner to protect his sorry hind quarters.
Of course, the failure to protect A. A. Ron needs now to be placed at the feet
of Mike Zimmer & Anthony Barr for a dirty hit. I guess they couldn't
see the pounding that Sam Bradford took throughout the 2015 season having an
offensive line that look more like a bull fight with a red cape yelling Olay as
the defenders passed them.
Then someone points out that this Minnesota Vikings franchise would be without
it's starting quarterback (Bradford), it's #1 wide receiver (Diggs), it's #1
running back (Cook), it's starting safety (Sendejo) & left guard (Easton)
... while we got to pound the Fudge Packers into oblivion.
Now let's take a deep look into history. Does anyone remember that New
York/New Jersey viewing market while Lawrence Taylor destroyed quarterback after
quarterback. Back then it was football & it was OK to play like crazed
dogs. Then of course it was the 85 Bears that seemed to put 75% of every
quarterback starter they faced out of commission week after week. Of
course, that was ok ... but now we need to protect fantasy owners ... wanting to
put A. A. Ron into pumps & a frilly dress. You people make me sick.
Screw the Fudgies ... as they are now forced to struggle on. Screw the
fantasy pin heads that know little about the team play of sport.
Now, I peer at the NFL power rankings, where of course the Cowboys are stationed
in the middle of the pack. Well that's ok knowing that the Cowboy defense
could be used to strain your pasta because that's about all they can hold
back. Where Elliot gets a pass until the Cowboys season is for all
purposes ... done. Gee ... Did anyone notice that Adrian Peterson was the
only person to be placed on the commissioner's special exempt list that made
this franchise pay him for his unrealized services ... made to sit on the
couch? Is it true that some franchises count where others don't. Why
was Adrian Peterson the only person eligible for this distinction & why
isn't Elliot sitting on his couch?
Now, we wonder what is being considered pondering these present power
ratings? Maybe it's time to consider that this franchise is now sporting a
Big-Boy defense that's intent on taking your toys away. It's a nasty world
out there & we are quite tired of having to pander to your whining ways.
Sure, we lost to the Eagles last year on their home turf but I wonder quite
allot about that game considering the "what-if's". What if
Sendejo returned that early interception for a touchdown? What if Clemens
hadn't false started on the 1 yard line. What if we hadn't given up a
special teams touch down. Then I ask the really big question, have the
Eagles progressed as much as this Vikings squad. By comparison the
Packers, Lions & Bears blow the Redskins, Cowboys & Giant's out of the
water, The Eagles are different, having a few more weapons, but not that much
different whereas we now have a stout offensive line. In other words,
today the venue doesn't matter. Now consider the weapons & the play of
A. A. Ron versus that of Carson Wentz. No ... not scared at all.
Sure the Eagles will get their share but what will time mean to the balance of
power.
Yesterday, there were two major mistakes made that were critical to the Packer
effort. The first was in regard to Jerrick McKinnon's fumble which jumped
into Mathew's hands perfectly with him back to the bulk of the offense.
Talk about serendipity. Sure it could happen to anyone except old Denis
Green approach of course was always bench slivers for lack of concentration ...
just ask Roberts Smith. Then there is the more glaring issue of the use of
Latavius Murray. He's a big power back that needs to be available for the
tough yards required to close out games as well as Red Zone goal line
sniffing. Murray has not developed his role on this offense where the
coaching needs to correct itself immediately. You have not allowed Murray
to find & achieve his identity where opportunities to do so are now
gone.
The other turnover was on Keenum's tip ball to Michael Floyd. A foot more
into Floyd's route would have resulted in 6 points. I can't help but think
that with Bridgewater ... the blow out was on.
With Case Keenum ... I'm torn completely in two. On one hand it's fun to
watch his determination & grit on that grid iron but on the other hand, I
can't help but feel that he's prepared to sell out this organization to the
highest bidder. When I'm at sea ... I'm at the helm unless I can trust
someone else unequivocally where they better be at the level of my heart.
Brett Favre would never be at the helm of my ship because when he steered our
ship onto the rocks he made every fudge packer love him even more. I want
a true Viking at the helm & if Teddy isn't ready to go then maybe the ball
should be placed into Sloter's hands, as his history can be crafted in Viking
history. Maybe I'm wrong but can Keenum rise to the unquestioned devotion
of a Joe Kapp or is he just a bookie away from gutting us like pigs. Why
would Case do this? Well, if he knows that he's serviceable but not elite
... then you strike while the iron is hot. It's that simple. What is
clear is that I can't take any more of this.
