Go vikes! Sage for a 4th is a good deal.

He is def better than Tjax and as long as our Oline can protect him he knows how to get the ball downfield or to the tight end. I think this is a band aid fix that will allow Childress to keep his job after next season. But hell lets be optimistic, It doesnt take an All Star QB to win the Superbowl Im not happy about it, but being a Viking fan and living in Houston, ive gotten to see plenty of Sage the past 2 years.

Of course we all hope he performs better than he did with the Texans as far as this completion to interception ratio goes.  It will probably run in a lot of fans minds, especially if he starts out poorly. I just have this gut feeling that Rosenfels can fit in with our offense pretty well. I still think we'll need that second WR and utilize the TE more, not to mention better play-calling, coaching, etc. As fans, it's important to give the guy a fair shot, plain and simple, then hope we can make the playoffs again before any Super bowl aspirations are met. We have to be realistic about it also, because were not getting Tom Brady here, but we may not need a superstar like Brady to win big games.

His td to interseption situation  bothers me. Our bad coaching (does anybody agree with me) bothers me, so im certainly not jumping for joy. I have no choice but to give Sage a chance, but to say im apprehesive is an understatement. I guess it could go either way. His td to interseption situation  bothers me.
