Who thinks the Vikings O-Coordinator is retarded for not giving AP the ball at least 25 times a game?

I dont understand. They pass first when they need to run first. The only reason AP has not been doing outstanding these last few weeks is b/c they dont give him the ball. He cant do anything with 12 carries a game. It is rediculous that he lest Favre pass it every play.

    Week 1 25 carries 180 yards

    4 25 carries 55 yards

    8 25 carries 97yards

    12 25 carries 85 yards

    14 26 carries 97 yards

    1 game over a 100 yards with 25 or more carries! He has 3 games over 100 yards and it is the 14th game of the season! He is inconsistant! AP is good but he is not worth all the hype he is getting.He was soupposed to be the guy that was going to carry Brett to the SuperBowl.

    The offensive coordinator must know something!! 11 wins doesn't happen with all defense! AP had 73 yards on 3 receptions!Maybe because the defense was fooled into thing he was going to run!

    I am a Vikings fan and I do not think so

    I think he could possibly give Favre the ball to throw it much more than now

    the O-Line has played crap, they do not give Favre protection to be in the pocket and to throw either

    they dont open the damn holes to AP and he cant do anything, and the call plays are just stupid, the receivers are droping every single pass as well

    Up to this point in the season, everyone was talking about Favre for MVP. Now we're talking about taking the ball out of his hands. I'm beginning to think that Vikings fans may be schizo.

    That being said, IMHO, they should be running the ball more often.

    A lot of it depends on the O-Line. Are they better at pass blocking or at run blocking? You're right. They need a more balanced attack. And Favre sometimes holds the ball too long, waiting for a receiver to get open.

    They need to give the ball to Peterson a lot more.

    The Vikings O-Coordinator is brad childress. Just another reason not to give him a contract extension.

    Haven't you heard? Favre runs the team now. He is QB and coach.
