10 Reasons Why the Vikes Will Beat the Lions

The Vikings have a chance to really turn their season around with a win Sunday over Detroit. And the Lions? Their season has already been turned around, and is now headed in the wrong direction. As in, right off a cliff.
Here are 10 reasons why I believe the Vikings will indeed beat [...]

T-Jack Tired of Naysayers

Tarvaris Jackson is sick of being told he isn’t any good by all the so-called NFL experts on TV.  The QB said:
The way things have been going around here, I just try to put the papers down and don’t watch too much TV, especially because my TV always stays on NFL Network and ESPN.  I [...]

Adrian Peterson Likely to Return Sunday

Adrian Peterson had an MRI Monday which showed “excellent healing” according to Brad Childress. So, if AD has a good week of practice, he is expected to play Sunday at home against the Lions.
The Vikings‘ world has of course changed since Peterson went down in the Green Bay game. The team has ripped [...]

Childress Not Going Anywhere

Most of the time, for a football coach, a vote of confidence from your owner is the kiss of death. But since the Vikings are on what for them passes for a roll, I think we can believe that Zygi Wilf is being totally sincere when he says that Brad Childress’s job is safe [...]

Giant Upset

The signature game of the Vikings‘ 2005 season - the game we all remember from that up-and-down year, which saw the team finish 9-7 and barely out of the playoffs - was played in the Meadowlands against the New York Giants. The Vikings, a team not exactly known for big road wins outdoors, did [...]

Halftime Lightning Round

Could Tarvaris Jackson be developing real chemistry with Sidney Rice?  Rice has 3 catches for 82 yards and that sweet opening drive 60-yard TD, which was made possible by a great T-Jack play-action fake.
Okay, we’re getting pretty lucky.  Jackson fumbled that one forward for the first down.  The Giants’ left tackle has been called for [...]

Winfield to Sit Again

Antoine Winfield’s bad hammy is turning into a major headache for the Vikings. The cornerback missed practice again today and is listed as doubtful for Sunday’s game against the Giants. No Winfield means a thin secondary again, this time against a Giants squad that will be without their leading rusher Brandon Jacobs and [...]
