I wanted to take a break from my incredibly premature musings about the 2010 offseason and give some love to our friends around the Blogosphere.  Make sure to check out some of these great stories and then check back here and let me know what you thought.

Also, while I gave up on doing a regular mailbag feature, feel free to email me at adam@vikingsgab.com anytime with questions or comments and I’ll do my best to provide answers.

Here are some great links:

  • Capital J has some interesting points on the Vikings-Packers game.
  • Adrian Peterson may seem like he’s having a down year, but when it comes to stats he’s right on track.
  • Mike Mayock does a great job breaking down that 4th quarter touchdown pass.  Seriously, check this one out, it’s a great segment.
  • Jason Whitlock thinks Brett Favre is a “clear cut” MVP of the league.  Apparently he doesn’t watch the Colts… ever.
  • The Daily Norseman has a halarious list of what different Vikings will be doing with their bye week.
  • Jason Winter takes some jabs at the league’s worst teams.
  • Kevin Seifert yaks about YAC in the NFC North, and the Vikes come in second.
  • Grant’s Tomb talks about the rumor floating around that Percy Harvin could return punts later this season.
  • If you are in favor of the Vikings getting a new stadium, then make sure to check out Minnesota Momentum.
  • I think it is funny that the Vikings main splash page is telling us to vote our players into the Pro Bowl.  There are five players pictured (including Bryant McKinnie… Bwahahahaha!) but not one of them is Favre.  The slogan used is “You Vote.  They Play.”  I suppose they knew that Favre will not play at the Pro Bowl even if he gets voted in so they didn’t even bother.  However, considering that the Pro Bowl will be played prior to the Super Bowl and that the Super Bowl contenders surely will not have their best players play in a meaningless scrimmage, the Vikings slogan should be something more like “You Vote.  They Won’t Play, But They Deserve It Anyways.”
  • Pacifist Viking takes a nice look at the mid-season outlook for this Vikings team.
  • The Vikings Ship even has a music video for the bye week.
  • Here are some interesting mid-season stats.
  • While I may not agree 100%, Vikes Geek makes a solid case for the Vikings considering an upgrade of Bernard Berrian.
  • A contrast between Tarvaris Jackson and Brett Favre is put into incredibly sound words.
  • Viking Age has ten points to take away from the Packers game, and also some harsh words for Brian Robison and Asher Allen.
