Hopefully they're all on Peterson for a loss....

up 7 points in the confrence championship game... but my team is done and they have Peterson tonight... doesn't look good, unless Peterson has a game like last week or tweaks his acl again...

Roy Williams suspended one game for the horse collar.

Really? I dunno about all that

Good move by the NFL.

Didn't realize he has done it a bunch of times when I posted earlier.

But God damn....Get some tackles Lance Briggs :(

Are the Vikings seriously gonna make the playoffs.

Lance Briggs 6 tackles....YESSSSSSSSSSSS

Not if you lose one game so the Saints can sneak in..

:D

Pro Bowl teams bout to be announced.........Patriots

Drew Brees > entire Viking team

I think it's going to be kinda tough for Sean Taylor to make that trip to Hawaii.

I agree with Ant here. In the long run, barring injuries from either guy, I think Peterson is a better running back. Reggie is versatile, but he will never be an every down back.

Chris Cooley.........BOOOOOOOOOOOO

He is a good TE. Deserves it in my opinion. Even though he is a Redskin and I am a sworn enemy by default.

Has anyone else noticed that outside of their passing game which is terrible, the Vikings are nasty everywhere else? They have one of the best left sides of an offensive line ever assembled in the NFL and then Tony Richardson behind that at fullback. They have the one of the two best DT combos in the NFL (I would say the best but you could make a case for Jacksonville), their linebackers are solid and they have a shutdown secondary. They really have a Super Bowl quality team if they could just throw the ball.

Think Brady throws a TD to Vrabel in the pro bowl...

Brady, Moss, 3/5ths of the OL... Wilfork, Vrabel, Samuel...

of course the team now and who/what actually shows up is a different story.

The Vikings would be amazing if they had any worthwhile wideouts

Even then that formula will work as long as Jackson doesn't make mistakes at the QB position. I think their secondary has come around in the latter half of the season. I know heading into their game with the Giants they were pretty low on the totem pole in terms of pass defense, but everyone knows Eli made them all look like all pros.

Yeah they give up the most passing yards per game in the NFL but that number is a bit skewed because teams average more pass attempts against them per game than any other opponent. They give up 6.88 yards per attempt which is tied with Jacksonville for 14th. They've given up 17 pass TDs which is 8th best in the league and they have 8 defensive TDs which is 1st. So yeah they might be the weakest part of the defense but they're definitely not a weakness.

Yeah their defense is pretty stout. I don't usually look to statistics to tell the tale, who the hell knows, could be a lot of "garbage" yards. They have a really good run defense, so teams could have looked to the pass all year to try to move the ball.

I find the tentative Vikings to Packers ratio in the Pro Bowl to be disturbing.

Good thing Cromartie and his 10 INTs isn't starting :|

Since 10 INTs are the only indicator of good defensive back play

This has been one of the worst statistical years for running backs I have ever seen. I believe they could have done better than Barber and Westbrook, maybe put in Portis or Brandon Jacobs instead of them. Other than that I guess it looks like an alright pro bowl selection overall. To be honest I haven't paid attention to how Patrick Kerney or Darren Sharper were doing, but I guess they are still doing alright for themselves.

Holt elected again :D

Barber in the probowl ftw

Don't sleep on Sidney Rice. Kid's gonna be good.

and starting at Free Safety, a Rotting, Festering, Maggot Infested Corpse!

Minnesota needs to hire Paul Johnson as offensive coordinator to teach them the wishbone offense for the playoffs. If Navy can do it with the talent they have, I'm sure the Vikings could do it too.

Quite an accomplishment for our "backup" running back. :nono:

How did Colston not make the Pro bowl? I would pick him over a lot of the guys who did make it at the wide out spot on the NFC team

Not Torry :) Also, Parcells gonna become the VP of football operations in Atlanta, what.

Except he has more catches, more touchdowns, more bigger games and more yards than Torry Holt

The only thing Holt has over him is the fact that Holt has been putting up consistent numbers through out the year, where as Colston has had a really bad game or two (One game against the Seahawks he was pretty close to shut out I think)

The Pro Bowl is a fucking joke. 11 Cowboys and a Dead Redskin, sounds more like the wild west.

No one from the NFC South? No Jaguars? No Browns?

Fucking JOKE!

I respect the fact that Sean Taylor was voted in as a starter.
