What?!?!?  lol
Not that Culpepper wasn't a great player,...but I don't think he was the driving force that would have made or broken the team. Didn't he end up at the Lions? I am not sure how that happened. I also saw that Wade was traded to the Chiefs I believe.
The Vikings have ALL kinds of talent on the team,...and that is not including Favre. Adrian Peterson, Jared Allen, Chad Greenway, Percy Harvin, Bernad Barrian, Sidney Rice, Ryan Longwell, Antoine Winfield, Pat Williams, Kevin Williams, Chester Taylor,....just to name a few of the returning players. We also have several newer guys that have great potential and are really stepping up and showing it.
I think the Viks could have done just as well with either Tarvaris Jackson or Sage Rosenfels as quarterback this year. It is a very talented and strong team. And I really wish we were doing this well WITHOUT Favre. I don't want to hear BF taking any credit for it,......it is a joint effort on the whole team that will make or break them. Not just one person. But that is just my take on it.

Ok, calm down there girl! Maybe I didn't phrase it right...clearly its a team sport, with a lot of talent all around. We can say that about every single club.
They're a fairly good team, but I wouldn't buy my tickets for the Superbowl just yet. Any team can beat any other team, on any given Sunday. Favre had a GREAT game, far better than I thought he would honestly. And the Defense played an awesome game too--you are correct that all the credit shouldn't go to Favre. Absolutely right. It's hard to NOT focus on him, given the obvious situation, playing his old team/emotions running high/MNF, etc.
It will be interesting to see how the rest of the season plays out.
I admire your spirit though!

In house rivalries are always fun. Good luck to your teams! I will be rooting for the Giants in that one.

Tell your hubby that this Chiefs fan said the Raiders can kiss my red & white ass. I don't care that the Chiefs haven't won a game since November, I ain't scurred.

As much as I like the fact that the Giants are 4-0, I expect them to get their first loss somewhere between now and week 7. Since they play the Raiders, the Saints and the Cardinals, I just hope that loss doesn't come against the Raiders.

Yeah. Some fans on the Giants board are acting like he broke his leg. From all reports, he should still be able to play. But if he does, it's probably going to impact some of his plays. Just the thought of Carr starting makes me sick to my stomach.

If the Giants win, Greys will be like: "Eli's pussy ass finally did something right and he beat the Raiders."
If the Giants lose, Greys will be like: "I knew Eli's pussy ass would fuck it up. Goofy motherfucker."

I thought i heard on the news, that his foot problem has been an issue for weeks, and the only reason they disclosed it, was because they didnt want to get fined by the NFL. dunno.

I didn't hear about the weeks part. But since he started hobbling and left the game on Sunday I don't think it could've been an issue for weeks. But who knows?

NY Giants' Eli Manning hoping to play against Raiders following plantar fasciitis diagnosis | New York Giants - - NJ.com
The Giants confirmed Manning has been suffering from plantar fasciitis, a painful condition that involves irritation of the thick tissue on the bottom of the foot. He then injured the ligament on Sunday.
it looks like he had the injury before. maybe i didnt hear the right thing about the fine. I run the channels in the morning, so who knows what i really heard.
