Welcome to Minnesota!

Wow, what a way to win your first game in the Purple. I'll admit to being less than thrilled with getting involved in the #4 circus. But without question he is a better QB than any option they had. (I am disappointed they let John David Booty go and kept the other 2 clowns, so long-term there's still no answer). But with that said, we have a QB in Minny who can actually lead a game winning drive, something we're unfamiliar with. (Culpepper had 2 in his 7 seasons).

Enjoy Paul Allen's call from KFAN here....
