He does get alot of love from the media. In fact, it bothers me too. We have a good team. I do think that he has helped with the development of our WR. But I think the team deserves as much attention as Brett. I'm not saying we would be in the NFC Championship game without him, but we did get to the playoffs last year with two sub par QB's.

As far as running up the score in the dallas game, well, the 2 series before that was running the ball. We ran the ball on 4th down, when we were in field goal range. We started that with >5 min on the clock. Dallas started taking time outs. This was the Dallas Cowboys, you know, America's Team. I don't have a problem getting in the Cowboys face. What really would have been classless was taking knees in Victory formation with 5+ minutes on the clock. Then again.......it's Dallas.

I hate the Vikings- everyone of them. I hope we lay the smack down on ya'll. That said, you have a very good team, and this game will be hard, very hard to win, but damn I am glad we are not up in Minny.
