Vikings Lose to Dallas Cowboys

The Minnesota Vikings lost to the Dallas Cowboys yesterday 24-14 in Dallas and I have to say Vikings Vixen was not surprised. Not surprised by the loss, but very surprised that our offense continues to look like a train wreck and no changes are made. Just a week after stunning the Bears in Soldier Field, the Vikings offense looked sad and pathetic. Versus the Bears, it was the Adrian Peterson phenom show, but there are no highlight reels for the Dallas Cowboys game (really for either team).

Vikings Vixen blames Tarvaris Jackson (again!). He has not shown the ability to throw the ball down field. As an NFL quarterback, you have to be able to hit your wide receivers in stride and Tarvaris Jackson can’t do that, he can hardly manage the hand offs to AP. His passes are either too far out of bounds for the receivers to catch them (even if they had Inspecter Gadget arms) or he drastically underthrows like he did to Bobby Wade. I am pretty sure I saw Wade give Jackson an earful on the sideline and was that Childress giving his project pupil some disgruntled commentary as well? Childress has to see that Tarvaris Jackson just isn’t it for this Vikings season (Jackson Sunday numbers: 6 for 19, 72 yards, 0 TD)

Next up is the only Vikings home game in October. It's the Vikings vs. the Philadelphia Eagles on Sunday October 28th. We will see you at the Metrodome Minneapolis! S’kol Vikings!
