Case Keenum - Wow!
Ok, I'll be the first to admit I'm humbled and shocked by what I just witnessed by Case Keenum. Holy crap did he look good. The OLine gave him all kinds of time, and he lit up the Bucs. I honestly didn't think he could play at that level. He not only made great throws; short, mid and deep, but he just made great veteran decisions.
I tip my Viking cap to you, Case - great game!
Go Vikes!
I'm not sure which surprised me more... how accurate Keenum was , or seeing Viking WR's breaking open play after play. The WR's and Shurmer absolutely ate the Bucs alive in the intermediate range, and Keenum kept hitting them.

Ignoring your sugarman tinfoilage, yes, I think Spielman failed to draft quality depth and future for the line. That is what I meant, Spielman neglected our o-line and it killed us last year.
I've asked questions about Sugarman on several threads and no one responds. I'm not trying to pursue some conspiracy; I just see a paradox when people (here and elsewhere) say he is a great asset to the Vikings but hardly draw a breath before claiming this team has lost an excessive number of games and/or seasons due to too many injured players."Tinfoilage" is a great word, though.....

Not sure anyone really wants to go that deep down the rabbit hole. What do we know of Sugarman's job? Really, what do we know of any of the front office jobs either, but at least playing GM on the internet is an enjoyable hobby. Playing athletic trainer on the internet? Not so muchAnd who sez he is great? I think he is highly regarded by the team and others in the field, so I will probably just step over that rabbit hole.
