With Brett Favre, now there is no one to blame for failure but Childress. I dont think we will be seeing Brad next year!

we need a head coach not a baby sitter: example,tjoke! The last preseason game he threw sage to the wolf's pertaining how that int. really upset him, what a joke! He then could bump up tjoke on the depth charts, instead of putting sage or booty back in to see how they would perform after the int.! The whole pre season went like that, keep tjoke in long enough, when he's doing good then pull him, so he can't mess it up! The one word why tjoke won't a starter is, accuracy he doesn't have it! We need a coach that is not a habitual liar, and stands by his word! He kept saying how they looked at the roster to up grade the personal, then what happen the last 3 years! For these reason's alone he should be canned!

Tired of hearing how people dont like Childress or T Jack. Since Chilly took over we've gotten better on both sides of the ball. And Jackson is better then Sage and Booty at the qb spot so get over it. I remember hearing every one bitch when Wade was cut and then we signed this Lewis kid. Well well well. Lewis catches the game winning td pass. How bout we talk about Adrian Peterson. Chilly helped pick him up. How bout we talk Harvin who has 3 td's this year. Since 2006 out team has gotten better through the draft as well as free agency and trades. Try trusting ownership and coaches for a change people. You people bitch about every thing. Even when we win.

All you had to say is he should be fired. I'm in total agreement. Childress is an incompetent fool.

@ TAO yeah but your from Jersey and your opinion means **** in Minnesota. Chilly and the Vikings have improved there record every year since he was hired. Granted its frustrating to watch 4 yard passes all game long but its no different that Tom Coughlin. If the Giants didnt pull that superbowl win our of there ass he would be unemployed.

Clueless is right. Jokeson has more liabilities than inaccuracy - he has no brain, can't read defenses, can't hit a third receiver, has no pocket presence, no confidence building or leadership skills (i.e. no character) and is basically an unteachable moron. Other than that, he shows great potential. RE: Childress, some fans are addicted to failure and require its nurturing to feel complete. To size this coach up and conclude he is anything other than an abject failure tells us a lot about such people. It's a shame they are allowed to vote;-)

I am so sick of the D-bags who come on here to bash Jackson. News flash, he hasn't played any significant time this year. Last year he played well in the 6 regular season games, especially the last 4, where he led the NFL in passer rating. He had 4 TDs against the team that went to the Super Bowl. Yes, he played poorly against Philly, but so did Romo the week before and Eli the week after (both played worse actually). And why is it that Jackson threw 1 TD that was run back for a TD last year, and he is judged to be terrible, yet both Sage and Booty do it on back to back drives yet somehow they are better. In the game before that Jackson had the highest possible passer rating that you can get. However, none of that even matters, what is the point in bashing him now? After a week that he didn't play at all, after we win in spectacular fashion, and during a season where clearly he isn't the starter, you still carry on about Jackson. Get over it. How does the backup QB get ripped when he hasn't played any time other than run-out-the-clock, relief time for games we had in the bag? My guess is you are up their in Appleton, wearing your old green and gold #4 jersey, crying into your packers pillow case, just trying to come up with pathetic trash talking points against your biggest rivals, who now have your former hero behind center.

Wow, you love Jackson huh? I have seen you defend him before. Pick your battles man. "He had 4 TDs against the team that went to the Super Bowl"
So? Favre threw 6 against the Cardinals last year. Jackson is where he belongs right now, on the bench.

Isn't it absolute poetic justice that the man who really was supposed to be the Packers head coach and the man who WAS the "Packer" of all-time should team up with a power house called the Vikings to lower the beam on the dumbells?

As a former Packer fan, I made it my business to unearth what the exile of Favre was all about and I can tell you the findings are disgusting. I truly hope Momma Favre, Bonita, writes a book about it. Brett never will, but don't cross Bonita where her family is concerned.

Anyway, the reason Chili was passed by Green Bay as head coach was...are you ready for this???....Ted Thompson. Why, you ask? BECAUSE TED THOMPSON WANTED TO GET RID OF BRETT FAVRE FROM BEFORE THE TIME BOB HARLAN HIRED HIM TO REPLACE MIKE SHERMAN....AND...BRAD CHILDRESS IS NOT THE KIND OF MAN WHO WOULD KNUCKLE UNDER A TED THOMPSON LIKE A "Porky McCarthy" would and DID. "Porky" was given the order to waterboard Favre for six hours and "make sure" to find a way to block Favre. Well, "they" did...BUT "they" didn't! See what I'm sayin'? I'll leave the light on for ya'! GO VIKINGS...A L L T H E W A Y!!!

With that G.B. O-line?? Make sure you have the Viking D in your fantasy football roster! If Cedric Griffin decides to show up, we got this. and bring that 3-4 crap.. That scheme plays right into the Vikings game plan. Yes, there is a game plan ney-sayers! SKOL Vikings!!

I think you mean you're, their, and it's.
My server is in Jersey, I am (and always will be) in/from Minnesota.
If you're so happy with Childress now I imagine you will be ecstatic IF he actually wins a playoff game.
