[Check out my other previews: Quarterback, Running back, Full back, Tight end]
It took quite some time for Vikings fans to come to terms with the absence of Randy Moss, but that time may have finally arrived.
Second round pick Sidney Rice finally had a breakout season and Rookie of the Year Percy Harvin has proven to [...]
As the draft approaches and we start to speculate as to whom the Vikings may target, it is important to keep in mind a key point in their drafting strategy.
The current Viking regime strives to solve problems before they become problems. By that I means they try to replace players one year before they leave [...]
This is not the Saints we are all used to, as their secondary, while not perfect, is a respectable group that has made plenty of plays this year.
The Saints still rank 26th in stopping the pass and will have a challenge when facing the Vikings 8th ranked passing offense.
In looking at the stats, it is [...]
Is it just me, or does this week seem to have less urgency than the last one for us Vikings fans? Strangely, I feel more confident against the Saints in their house than I did against the Cowboys at home. I know that isn’t right, as the Saints are the better team, but I guess [...]
The national media had pretty much crowned the Cowboys as the NFC Champs by Tuesday of last week. Now, the only way they’ll be playing in the Super Bowl is if The Who? calls in sick and Tony Romo knows how to play guitar.
Before I start to look forward towards the Saints, I wanted to [...]

I saw a commercial for an NFL Network feature that may interest some of you.
At 9:00 a.m. on Sunday Morning, NFLN will run a feature story about Sidney Rice and his background.
Another habit of mine is creative writing, and I once had a very good writer tell me that every single professional athlete has a [...]
I can’t help but notice many similarities between the Vikings and the Cowboys.
There is the fact that I have always suspected that Tony Romo is actually the spawn of Brett Favre. Powerful running games, dominating defensive lines, troubled secondaries, and big offensive lines that have the potential to collapse are just a few more similarities [...]
Sidney Rice had shown enough flash of greatness in his first two seasons that he had become a fan favorite in Minnesota and was often considered a prime candidate for a breakout season.
Nothing could be closer to the truth.
With a strong work ethic, training sessions with Cris Carter and Larry Fitzgerald, and the arrival of [...]
First off, thanks to everyone that came by for the live chat Sunday Night. We keep breaking personal records here at the Gab, and the live chat was no exception. Enough people showed up that I was too busy managing screen names and comments and stuff that I was barely even able to comment. That [...]
