Like Looking Into a Mirror

In some ways, the Vikings and Eagles are mirror images of each other.  Consider:

Vikings fans are annoyed that Brad Childress doesn't allow Adrian Peterson to run the ball more, preferring instead to not overload the rookie by sharing his carries with Chester Taylor.

Eagles fans wish Andy Reid would spread the ball around more, in an effort to keep Westbrook healthy by giving some of his slug-it-out carries to Buckhalter and Hunt.

.

Vikings fans have given up on their quarterback of the future, Tarvaris Jackson, believing that the team has the talent to win right away with a veteran QB.

Eagles fans are edging towards the exit of the Donovan McNabb experience and casting plaintive looks in the direction of their quarterback of the future, Kevin Kolb.

.

The Vikings may be a team on the rise.

The Eagles, well, I can't even say it.

Of course, there are lots of ways in which the teams are pretty similar.  Namely, that they both suck.

No, I haven't gotten over the Chicago game yet.  More later.
