Posted in On Tuesday, the Vikings released cornerback Marcus Sherels from their practice squad to make room for tight end John Nalbone. Sherels was an undrafted rookie this year and was somewhat impressive in the preseason, and I thought he had an outside shot at making the 53 man roster. Nalbone was a fifth round pick of [...]

Vikes Look At Two Kickers & Two Linemen
The Vikings are like every other NFL team and often take a look at “street free agents” to make sure they are familiar with who is available if a specific need arises. On Tuesday the Vikings looked at kickers Hunter Lawrence and Swayze Waters. They also looked at tackle Scott Kooistra and guard Donald Thomas.
Peterson Gets NFC’s Top Honors
Adrian Peterson showed a good deal of willingness to put the Vikings offense on his back when they took on the Lions on Sunday. He averaged seven yards per carry as he rumbled to 160 yards, 80 of which came on one log touchdown play. He also had five catches for 30 yards in the [...]
MOVIE REVIEW: A Fan For All Seasons
A while back, I wrote a post about a movie that looked to be of interest to all Vikings fans, and promised to view the movie and give you an honest review. Aaron Lubarsky’s project A Fan For All Seasons would be a unique addition to any Vikings fans’ collection. The film attempts to follow [...]
Peterson-A-Palooza
One of the byproducts, for better or worse, of the Brett Favre signing prior to the 2009 season was that running back Adrian Peterson would cease to be such a focal point in the eyes of the fans and the media. Favre-A-Palooza was a term coined by tight end Visanthe Shiancoe and pretty much sums [...]
Will Cook Be Competition For Sullivan?
I am not a big fan of starting center John Sullivan’s level of play, but I have to admit I was wishing for him to re-enter the lineup after injuring his leg early in Sunday’s game. I was wishing for his return, because the very next play featured his replacement, Ryan Cook, getting beat bad [...]
The Vikings Will Take Time Off
Last night I heard the trio of talking heads on NFL Network talking about how the Viking’s bye week couldn’t come at a better time because the team can treat it as a belated training camp to get Brett Favre on the same page as his offensive line and pass catchers. Apparently, that won’t be [...]
Vikings Enter Bye Week With Victory
If the Vikings had lost to the Lions today, then the week four bye would have doubtless been filled with fans calling for Brad Childress to be fired and speculation of a mid-season retirement party for Brett Favre. If they had one in blow-out fashion, then fans would have had a good dose of optimism [...]
Live Chat: Vikes Host Lions
Sorry for the lack of updates as we approach what will hopefully be the Vikings first victory of the season. I’m hoping to make up for it by hosting this live chat. Lets review a few things you should know before we get started: Children can make for some of the most loyal football fans [...]
INACTIVES: Secondary Gets Help
The Vikings secondary will get a big boost as they prepare to face Megatron and the rest of this newly improved Lions offense. Both Cedric Griffin and Chris Cook are active for today’s game. Safety Tyrell Johnson, linebacker Erin Henderson, Joe Webb (third quarterback), running back Albert Young, center Jon Cooper, defensive tackle Fred Evans, [...]
