Thread: Why Case Keenum May Turn Out To Be The Steal Of The Century......

I would agree if the season had begun, and we had something to critique.

Do you need a bro-hug, King.

Let this sink in - I can bring up the entire guy's career, his play last season, analytics, etc, but somehow I'm wrong for that, and the homers aren't? And somehow my arguments and opinions, which are just as informed (probably more so to be blunt) are on par with the stupid dive argument?

Geez.

Geez.

Come to the 'wait & see' side. We will welcome you with open arms.

I am optimistic because of what I read from Vikings fans. Not saying your opinion doesn't matter.

You had me on your side until you mentioned Plummer in a negative light...

Boy, I'm getting tired of reading that Keenum "is not Peyton Manning or Tom Brady." Who is
among today's QBs? Let's let Keenulm be Keenum. If he plays up to what he did last year,
he'll again be one of the top QBs in the league. If he tanks . . . well, he tanks. Let's allow
Keenum to handle that.

This is all 100% correct. My buddy (and now roommate) is a huge vikes fan....poor *******. Whenever I ask him about Case he simply quotes the Zimmer interview. "What I love most about Case is he has giant balls." I don't expect amazing things. I know he is better than Trevor and Brock. But he's one of those guys you'd follow into hell. That shit matters. Go Case.

Geez.

No King your arguments are not always the most informed. You have made some good arguments at times and at other you have not just like everyone else and that I'm sure will continue as long as you post here.

Amen brother. I just saw my team win a 3rd SB when i tjought id never see it again. It all happens in cycles. I knew there would be a few down years post-Manning, which is why I soooo wanted them to win with him here. Way back in 2012, i knew it would catch up with them upon his exit.

Seems pretty accurate to me. We’ll see if he can rise above that.

I was thinking he was coming into his prime? I Wasn't completely sold on him before, but he has some experience now, and Hopefully he has a good year.
It remains to be seen.
