I think we should trade Losman to Minnesota for someone. Hamdan is more than capable.

ugh. its a good move… they have a solid D and a great running game… they just need a QB thats not gonna lose the game for them 308 yards passing, and a 64.8 QB rating… thats pitiful. Albeit they did play GB and indy… Carolina is going to be another loss for them… Starting out 0-3 sucks they need to sneak a win out of sunday…
QB change will really change up the pace

hes not ready, no need to rush him like we did with jackson.
this move is fucking dumb imo, ferotte sucks, jackson only had a couple bad passes last game, his receivers didnt do shit for him (shaincoe dropped a td, and rice dropped a 40+ yrd pass) watching the colts vikes game manning made just as many mistakes but had 2 picks to tjacks 0, indys receiers made plays though, alex gonzalez made some great cathches im willing to bet no one on minnesota would and thats a big reason why their passing game was much better. and it doesnt help when every announcer, fan, and team can predict the vikings plays. case and point the vikings last offensive play was another bootleg to the right the colts sent a LB (i think might have been a CB) from that side and were 100% ready for that play. ferotte will not make any difference.
