The Minnesota Vikings finally finished off an opponent and came out with a win yesterday but the only issue is that the win had more to do withย Adrian Peterson‘sย 122 yard, three touchdown performance than whatย Donovan McNabbย was able to do.ย McNabb did finished the game 10-of-21 for 169 yards and ran for a touchdown but has turned into theย quintessentialย game manager rather than aย legitimateย NFL quarterback.
Jim Trotter ofย Sports Illustratedย still sees the Vikings making a change at quarterback at some point this season.
“As much as [Vikings head coach] Leslie Frazier wants to stick with McNabb, expect a change once the Vikings are officially out of playoff contention,” Trotter tweeted.
The Vikings findย themselvesย in a difficult position to fight their way back into contention considering that the NFC North has emerged as the toughest division in the NFL. Minnesota will be up against the ย Bears, Packers (two),ย Panthersย and the Raiders in their next five games so a change could come as soon as their bye week in week 9.
