Childress Visits Favre

Minnesota Vikings head coach Brad Childress visits Brett Favre today in Mississippi. When asked about the meeting Childress was quoted by saying "You fill in the blanks". All signs indicate that Brett will be back for another NFL season. How do you guys as fans feel about Favre holding out? Please leave comments below and follow our Minnesota Viking Fan Blog!

Favre from retired

Brett Favre worked out at Oaks Grove High School in Hattiesburg, Mississippi today July 1st. Oaks Grove head coach told the Minneapolis Star Tribune that Favre has been working out with his team occasionally since his ankle surgery this May. From a fans perspective this seems as if 40 year old Farve is once again gearing up for his 20th NFL season. Please leave comments below with your thoughts and predictions.

Vikings Draft Recap

With the 2010 NFL Draft now over, it gives us as fans a chance to reflect back on the Vikings selections. The Vikings originally had the 30th overall pick and I personally thought that we were going to pick up Jimmy Clausen out of Notre Dame. I thought this would have been a good pick and Clausen could sit behind Favre for a couple years and learn the system. Last second the Vikings traded the 30th overall pick to the Lions for the 34th overall pick and a 7th round selection. With the the pick from the Lions the Vikings selected Chris Cook, CB from Virginia. From what I have heard from other fans this wasn't a very popular pick. Next with the 51st selection the Vikes picked up heisman trophy runner-up running back Toby Gerhart out of Stanford. I was very pleased along with many other fans with this pick. Since we lost Chester to the Bears, this will give us a sold #2 RB behind AP! Gerhart will also be a great short yardage threat. Please let me know what you guys thought about the Vikings draft!

Vikings vs Rams Preview

After a very emotional Monday night win over the Packers, the Vikings will head to St. Louis to face the Rams. The Rams are currently 0-4, not the way first year head coach Steve Spagnolo envisioned. It is likely that starting quarterback Marc Bulger will sit out this week with a shoulder injury. Kyle Boller should get the start against the Vikings this Sunday. The game will be aired on Fox @ 1 ET and 12 Central. The Rams have struggled on the ground so far this season and are yet to have rushing touchdown. I don't see the Rams getting back on track this week against the Vikes. I was very impressed with our offense versus the Packers. Brett and the receivers looked in sync, which is good to see! The one concern that I had after last week was how we let Green Bay get back into it at the end, other than that we looked solid. If the we take care of business once again this week we should win very easily and leave St. Louis 5-0! Please leave your score predictions below!

MNF Vikings vs Packers Preview

This Monday night will be a site that many NFL fans thought they would never see! Monday at 8:30 ET 7:30 Central on ESPN Brett Favre will be facing the Green Bay Packers while in a Vikings uniform. It still seems like a dream! Ten years ago if you were to tell anyone that Brett would still be playing at the age of 39, God forbid with the VIKINGS they would think you are crazy. You know the story and that is where we are at today, Favre in purple! The 3-0 Vikings are coming off of a roller coaster win over the 49ers and the Packers are 2-1. It should be a great game, but hopefully not too close. The Packers have given up the most sacks in the NFL this season, which could mean a field day for the Vikings pass-rushers. The one thing that scares me about this game is Green Bay's WR's. Greg Jennings and Donald Driver are two very skilled wide outs and may cause some problems for the Vikes secondary. I think if we can establish a run game early and keep the Packers WR's in check we should be fine. Its going to be a fun one to watch! Please leave your score predictions below.

Two Words ... BRETT FAVRE 3-0

The Vikings pull off the win against the 49ers in a thriller! With 2 seconds left Brett Favre led the Vikings down the field for a game winning touchdown pass to Greg Lewis. Let me know what you guys thought about the game! Go Vikings!

27 - 13 Vikings

After a slow start by the Vikings, they get their 2nd win! The Vikes first half was very sluggish including a Adrian Peterson fumble and at one point we were down 10 - 0. Right before the half Favre led the offense on a long drive that ended with a Favre to Shiancoe touchdown pass. Halftime score 10 - 7 Lions. In the 2nd half it was all purple and gold. After going down 10 - 0 the Vikings had 27 unanswered points. It seems like to me, that the Vikes always wait till the 3rd and 4th quarters to open up the playbook. Don't get me wrong the Lions played a good first half, and Detroit is a much better team than people give them credit for. If I were to give out a "Player of the Game" award I would give it to linebacker Chad Greenway. Greenway had 2 Matthew Stafford interceptions and played a very solid game. Overall I thought it was a decent win, I liked the way that we have finished games so far. Let me know what you guys thought of the game! Also check us out on Twitter and Facebook.

Game Two Preview - Vikings @ Detroit

The Vikings will take on the Lions this Sunday at 1 ET and 12 Central on Fox. Where to start with the Lions ... well they haven't one a game since God knows when, and rookie quarterback Matthew Stafford will be making his 2nd NFL start. If I were a rookie QB in the NFL I think that the last thing I would want would be to face the Minnesota Vikings defense! I look for Jared Allen to have a big game after being shut down last week by Joe Thomas. This should be a fun game to watch if your a Vikes fan! Let me know what you guys think?

34 - 20 Vikings

The Vikings win season opener 34 - 20 win over the Browns. They started out a little slow and let the Browns take the lead heading into half time. In the end, the Vikes were too much to handle for the Browns. Coming into the season there were questions about how our special teams would be. The answer is ... about the same as last year. The Vikes gave up a punt return for a touchdown courtesy of Joshua Cribbs. I thought our offense looked sharper in the 2nd half, it seemed like they opened up the playbook more. One other concerns that I had with this game was that our D Line didn't get much pressure. Jared Allen was basically shut down by Joe Thomas. Other than our D Line & Special Teams we looked good. Adrian Peterson was well ... himself, 25 carries for 180 yards and 3 touchdowns. Favre looked decent, 14-21 110 yards and a TD. Let me know what you guys thought about the Vikings season opener!

Game One Preview - Vikings vs. Browns

September 13, 2009 to most people it is just another day, but to Vikings fans it is much more. The 13th will be the first regular season game with Brett Favre in purple and gold. The game will be held against Brett's former coach Eric Mangini and the Cleveland Browns. The Browns have been trying to keep a secret about who will be the opening day starter (cough) (cough) Brady Quinn. The Browns have much more to worry about than trying to keep a secret about their QB decision. If the Vikings don't turn the ball over I see us winning by atleast two touchdowns.
