Last Month, MilCardFan from Daily Norseman says (in Turning The Page) But maybe, just maybe, once he’s away for awhile, and the injuries heal, that fire will light in the belly, and he’ll give it one more go.  He’s got a rapport with his young receivers, a great running game, and a good, if slightly over-rated, offensive line.  Brett Lorenzo Favre, love him or ha...

2 Months Ago, Gonzo from Daily Norseman says (in There Is No Such Thing as "Running Up the Score" in the NFL) After Brett Favre connected with Sidney Rice for his third touchdown catch of the day, the Vikings led by a score of 27-3.  The Cowboys turned the ball over on downs, and the Vikings took over from the Dallas 33 with 6:24 left in the game.  On first down, Minnesota handed the ball to Adrian Peter...

And Gonzo from Daily Norseman says (in Leslie Frazier a Hot Property Again) 5 months ago: In a photo made Aug. 1, 2009, Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier is shown at NFL football training camp in Mankato, Minn. As far as Jared Allen was concerned, Minnesota Vikings defensive coordinator Leslie Frazier was as good as gone. In two seasons in Minn...

And Anthony21 from Daily Norseman says (in Once Again, Favre Named Player of the Week) Once Again, Favre Named Player of the Week For the third time this season, Brett Favre is the NFC offensive player of the week. This is the 16th time in his career that he's received player of the week honors -- but never before has he received it three times in one season. He finished the regula...

And Anthony21 from Daily Norseman says (in Vikings Destroy Giants (And Now We Wait)) Favre was never sacked and had plenty of time to throw the ball, as the offensive line had their way with the Giants defense. It was truly a dominant performance up front. The Giants had no interest in covering Rice or Shiancoe, and both finished the season with big games.

And Gonzo from Daily Norseman says (in Giants/Vikings Second Half Thread) Well, there's not really a hell of a lot that needs to be said.  The Vikings have simply thumped the Giants in every phase of the game through the first half, and carry a 31-0 lead into the locker room as a result.

Brett Favre has three touchdown passes, two to Sidney Rice, and Adrian Peterson has...

And Gonzo from Daily Norseman says (in The Playoffs Basically Start Today) 3) Take what the Giants give you - The Vikings' coaching staff. . .and we as fans. . .need to realize that there is no "magic number" of rushes or anything like that for this team any more.  This is no longer a "running team."  If the Giants load up to stop the run and we need to throw 40 times, then that's wh...

And ericj69 from Daily Norseman says (in The Mourning After: What Now?) But I'm not counting this team out just yet. As Gonzo has pointed out numerous times, take a look at Arizona last year. The Cards got their lunch handed to them in December, yet came within a play of winning the Super Bowl. Playing great in December is nice, but you ultimately need to play your bes...
