MINNY HEADS TO MOTOWN
Posted on 28 Sep 2012 by Sean Eckhardt.
The Vikings have been nothing but unpredictable during the first part of this season. When it looks like they are about to lose, they win. Then it appears that they are about to win and a rookie QB takes them down in the final seconds. And of course last week, Minnesota hosted San Francisco in a game nobody gave them a real chance, so they came out and beat up the mighty 49er's. This w...

From the Stick to the Dome: 49ers vs. Vikings Preview
Posted on 21 Sep 2012 by Daniel Trucios.
Third game for the 49ers, third opponent from the NFC North. The San Francisco 49ers hit the road again after their win at home to take on the Minnesota Vikings at Mall of America Field. So far this season the Niners have faced so tough passing teams and managed to overcome their aerial assaults for wins. That experience will help in this game. While the Vikings do seem like a classic running t...

LIVE BY THE SWORD, DIE BY THE SWORD
Posted on 17 Sep 2012 by Sean Eckhardt.
Minnesota made all kinds of mistakes in Indianapolis on Sunday. The biggest one was leaving :24 seconds on the clock after they had made another heroic comeback in the fourth quarter. That proved to be more than enough time for Andrew Luck to put his team in position for the winning field goal. And did you really think Adam Vinatieri was going to miss. 53 yards. Chip shot for the grea...

VIKINGS HOST JAGUARS TO START 2012 SEASON
Posted on 7 Sep 2012 by Sean Eckhardt.
The 2012 NFL season is underway and fans everywhere are ready. Nationally, nobody really cares about what happens Sunday when Jacksonville visits Minnesota, but fans in the Twin Cities are fired up. And for this game, they have plenty of reasons to be optimistic. Of course most Viking fans don't really need a reason, they are always looking forward to the 1st game of the season. This game...

Buffone Fantasy Football Guide: QBs 21-25
Posted on 24 Aug 2012 by John Buffone.
Well you took the approach that you were going to wait on your QB and load up on RBs and WRs early, right? If you waited until now to choose your starter, you’re not completely out of luck yet but if you’re looking for a sound backup, you’ve come to the right place. QBs 1-5 QBs 16-20 QBs 6-10 QBs 11-15 QBs 26...

VIKINGS EXCEEDING EXPECTATIONS
Posted on 23 Aug 2012 by Sean Eckhardt.
What if? That is the question. The Minnesota Vikings are a team that most experts think very little of. A lot of Viking fans aren't expecting too much this season either. What if all of these people are wrong? What if this team looks as good in the regular season as it has so far during the preseason? Could Minnesota actually make a run at the playoffs? Sure. The NFL preseason i...

VIKES FIRST PRESEASON GAME IS……, ABOUT WHAT YOU WOULD EXPECT
Posted on 11 Aug 2012 by Sean Eckhardt.
The Minnesota Vikings are in unfamiliar territory. As they enter the 2012 season, not much is expected of them, at least by most experts. Christian Ponder is entering his second year, AP has yet to join the team in regular practice, and the offensive line is completely revamped. On the defensive side things are a bit more stable, but there will still be plenty of new faces to check out in...

PERCY HARVIN’S BACK AND FORTH CONTINUES
Posted on 6 Jul 2012 by Sean Eckhardt.
The Minnesota Vikings have certainly not had a boring offseason. For a team that most experts think will be mediocre at best, the Vikes have had their share of publicity during these off months of 2012. After tense stadium negotiations and what looks to be an excellent draft, the focus turned to OTA's and the team's minicamp during June. That's where we find Percy Harvin making news. The ...

VIKINGS DRAFT WEEKEND IN REVIEW; A-
Posted on 30 Apr 2012 by Sean Eckhardt.
Rick Spielman and the Vikings getting an A- from me or anyone else is unheard of, but they deserve it. NFL fans around the country watched live coverage of this year's draft and everyone knew that QB's Andrew Luck and Robert Griffin III would be the first two picks. The first shot at any kind of suspense was the Vikings at #3. Less than an hour before the draft began, Minnesota traded bac...

VIKINGS OFFSEASON HAS BEEN TURBULENT
Posted on 6 Mar 2012 by Sean Eckhardt.
The Minnesota Vikings are in the middle of what might be the most important offseason in franchise history. I seem to remember saying that last year, but then the new stadium got pushed back, the Vikes drafted Christian Ponder as an answer to their QB question, so that situation still remains questionable, and oh yeah, Adrian Peterson blew out his knee. So where does Minnesota stand right n...

VIKINGS LOOK TO SEND OUT KLEINSASSER WITH A WIN
Posted on 30 Dec 2011 by Sean Eckhardt.
Sunday marks the first day of a 2012 and unfortunately, the final game of the season for the Vikings. Thoughts of the postseason have been gone since about week 5. This week 17 game against the Bears will also be the last time Jimmy Kleinsasser puts on the purple to play a game. The 13 year veteran, who spent his entire career with Minnesota, announced that he is retiring from the NFL ...

Would the Vikings Draft Andrew Luck?
Posted on 23 Dec 2011 by Sean Eckhardt.
As the Indianapolis Colts beat the Houston Texans on Thursday night, fans in Indy probably started getting nervous. Throughout the season writers, broadcasters, and fans have been speculating about whether or not the Colts would, or should draft Stanford QB Andrew Luck with the #1 overall pick in next April's draft. Peyton Manning has been out the entire season and his future health is unce...
