The second star to distinguish himself last night was Jared Allen, who had the same fire in his belly as Adrian Peterson, and made life as miserable for Bears tackle John St. Clair and QB Kyle Orton as Peterson did for Chicago’s defense. Allen’s three sacks tell only part of the story - it was t...

Popular belief has it that Adrian Peterson is the best running back in the NFL and ought to be given every opportunity to show it. On Sunday night, Minnesota Vikings' head coach Brad Childress spent the better part of the first half against the equally addled Chicago Bears, attempting to di...

There haven’t been a lot of big games for the Vikings in the Brad Childress era, but tonight’s is one for sure. They face they Bears, at Metrodome, with first place in the division on the line. The teams’ first ‘08 meeting was expected to be a defensive battle but turned instead into a shootou...

There are many things for which the Minnesota Vikings have to be thankful, including that they are not the Detroit Lions, Cincinnati Bengals, Seattle Seahawks, San Francisco 49ers, Saint Louis Rams, Oakland Raiders, Cleveland Browns, or Kansas City Chiefs. They also should be thankfu...

The NFL recently announced its 25 semi-finalists for the Hall of Fame voting that will take place over Super Bowl weekend. Four members of the Minnesota Vikings made the cut, and not surprisingly, they all have very strong cases as to why they should be considered for enshrinement in Cant...

“I will be playing football next year,” Taylor said bluntly. Following Sunday’s 30-12 loss to the Minnesota Vikings, we were visited by Fred Taylor on our post-game coverage. We couldn’t have asked for anything better. Taylor was candid (as always) in his review of the Jaguars current situ...

Vikings win, 28-27. The Packers opened the game with a three-and-out. And the Vikings got lucky. On third down, Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers missed a wide-open Jordy Nelson. The Vikings got a nice return into Packers territory by Charles Gordon.

QB Tarvaris Jackson QB Gus Frerotte QB John David Booty HB Adrian Peterson FB Naufahu Tahi FB Jeff Dugan 1) They were the wide receivers that the Vikings had when Brad Childress took the reins before the 2006 season. 2) None of them are drawing a paycheck from the Minnesota Vikings any more.

What's even more unfortunate is that the Vikings, thanks to Brad Childress' infinite stubbornness and inability to evaluate the progress of his players, don't currently HAVE anything better at the quarterback position to turn to. There's absolutely no point in playing Kelly Holcomb...

Last year's starting QB Brad Johnson has signed with Dallas to be our backup. So how is the new guy Tarvaris Jackson looking so far? I also see you recently acquired Kelly Holcomb. What's the QB situation for the Vikes? BTB: You had Chester Taylor last year, now you added rookie RB Adrian Peter...

At least, that's the take from Smilin' Jimmy Souhan at the Minneapolis Star-Tribune. I'm amazed at how quick some of the Twin Cities media types are to throw anyone and everyone associated with the Vikings under the bus. Friday, the Vikings' lone field goal was their lone offensive highli...

Image from ehow) As I recover from my Turkey Day gorging (as well as possibly the worst offering of Thanksgiving Day football games in history, with all 3 NFL games and the Texas-Texas A&M tilt being blowouts), I’m feeling strangely good about the Bears this week. Adrian Peter...
