Is it time for embattled QB Donovan McNabb to come home? The Chicago product from Mt. Carmel high school has always drawn an excessive amount of criticism, and in my opinion not always deservedly so. He has over a 60% career completion rate and he doesn't traditionally throw a lot of interceptions. And only four current NFL Hall-of-Famers have a passer rating higher than … [Read more...] about Vikings Cut Donovan McNabb: New Chicago Bears QB?

How the Vikings Can Stay Competitive with the Packers
Leslie Frazier and the Minnesota Vikings will play at Lambeau Field on Monday Night Football this week. The Packers are around two touchdown favorites-which is a boatload in the NFL. Fans from Green Bay are unique in the fact that they enjoy their beverages either way. They partake in them to celebrate if the club wins, and they consume them in excess after a loss to drown … [Read more...] about How the Vikings Can Stay Competitive with the Packers
Possible Mentors for Vikings QB Christian Ponder
The Minnesota Vikings are recuperating during the current bye week. Rookie quarterback Christian Ponder has now become the starter and I would like to offer some other people at the position to possibly emulate him. … [Read more...] about Possible Mentors for Vikings QB Christian Ponder
Vikings Pick Wrong Time to Start Christian Ponder
Minnesota Vikings quarterback Donovan McNabb certainly hasn’t set the NFL on fire so far this season. His quarterback rating in the low eighties is not up to the expectations of the organization or the fans. His completion rate of over sixty percent is a little misleading because he has only thrown for around a thousand yards. Because of the aforementioned data, head coach … [Read more...] about Vikings Pick Wrong Time to Start Christian Ponder
Minnesota Vikings Have Sunk to New Depths
Conventional wisdom said that the Vikings would be able to run against the Bears and that they would be able to stop the run on Sunday. Neither was true as Minnesota was steamrolled by over four touchdowns in a 39-10 drubbing. One would have thought that Viking quarterback Donovan McNabb could have a better performance on his return to his hometown. The team is now … [Read more...] about Minnesota Vikings Have Sunk to New Depths
Week 6 Fantasy Football Rankings: QB/RB
It’s the second week of bye weeks, but this one likely hurts fantasy owners more than last week. The likes of Chris Johnson, Ryan Mathews and Philip Rivers will all be on your fantasy bench this week, but that doesn’t mean there aren’t plenty of quality options. There are a few runners who will impress this week and are still available on waiver wires, and a couple passers who … [Read more...] about Week 6 Fantasy Football Rankings: QB/RB
Vikings and Chiefs: Battle for the Toilet Bowl
Fans in Kansas City and Minneapolis will have to start attending the games with paper bags over their heads. Both clubs have been examples of extreme futility so far this fall. The two clubs are headed nowhere fast because throughout the history of the NFL, only three percent of teams that have started in this manner (0-3) have reached the playoffs. … [Read more...] about Vikings and Chiefs: Battle for the Toilet Bowl
How Can the Minnesota Vikings Actually Win a Game?
The teams that met from the NFC North on Sunday in Minneapolis seem to be heading in vastly different directions. The Lions are a youthful and exuberant bunch, while the Vikings are a beaten down lackadaisical squad. I have some suggestions for Leslie Frazier on how Minnesota can join their divisional foes in the win column. … [Read more...] about How Can the Minnesota Vikings Actually Win a Game?
Lackluster Performance by McNabb, Minnesota Vikings Overall
The Minnesota Vikings received some very good news at the start of the game against the San Diego Chargers on Sunday. Kicker Nate Kaeding was being carted to the locker room for complications that ensued from an attempted tackle. He is out for the year with a possible torn ACL. That wasn’t enough for Minnesota to capitalize and steal a victory in Southern California. The … [Read more...] about Lackluster Performance by McNabb, Minnesota Vikings Overall
Analyzing the Minnesota Vikings Depth Chart
The addition of Donovan McNabb and Michael Jenkins on the offensive side of the ball have been the two most notable positive amendments during the offseason. The most newsworthy departure is undoubtedly the exit by offensive lineman and consistent Pro Bowler Bryant McKinnie. After taking a look at the depth chart on the team’s official site, it is puzzling to note that Joe … [Read more...] about Analyzing the Minnesota Vikings Depth Chart
