There are a lot of good articles being written in InternetLand yesterday and today about Brett Favre, but I wanted to share an interesting article from one of my favorite (if not favorite) blogs to read, Grant’s Tomb.  The article talks about how Favre has bought the Vikings a year or maybe two, but that [...]

Brad Childress has told local radio stations that Sage Rosenfels will start at QB tonight in their first preseason game against the Colts.
Coach Childress has made it clear all week that whoever starts tonight does not have a leg up in the QB competition overall.  Since Rosenfels is starting tonight, Jackson will start next week [...]

The starter for this Friday’s preseason game hasn’t been determined just yet.
But when they decide who starts Friday, it won’t be any indication of who the Vikings coaches believe will be the starter when Week 1 finally comes around.
Coach Childress has stated that he wants to see each of the two QBs play with the [...]

Yahoo sports posted a story today about how the Vikings corners believe they are among the best tandems in the league.  Click HERE to read that story.  (It’s a short one)

Antoine Winfield and Cedric Griffin are the starting corners for the Vikes this year.  They have some confidence.  That is a good thing for defenders [...]

According to the Access Vikings guys (vi Twitter), Tarvaris Jackson is back on the practice field today, so the competition is once again going.
So that got me wondering… who do you guys want to win? Would you rather see the Vikings led by Tarvaris Jackson in 2009, or Sage Rosenfels? I know a [...]

I asked Chip Scoggins (from Access Vikings on the Star Tribune) via Twitter how Albert Young is fairing at Training Camp this year. Since I’m also an Iowa Hawkeyes fan, I’m a little bit biased toward Albert Young, and I’d love to see him make the team.
Chip tweeted me back saying that Albert Young [...]

The word is coming from the Star Tribune that Aundrae Allison will be released by the Vikings at 5:00 PM today if he is not traded first.
It’s not surprising that Allison isn’t going to make the team. The Vikings will likely keep 5 receivers, and those receivers will probably be Bernard Berrian, Sidney Rice, [...]

Ugh…
As soon as the Brett Favre Drama was over, Vikings fans and football fans around the country immediately start in on rumors of the Vikings signing Michael Vick.
How can I put this gently….
MICHAEL VICK IS NOT A GOOD FIT FOR THE VIKINGS!!!!!!!!!
The gripe with current Vikings passers is that they don’t have the ability to [...]
