Like A Rolling Stone

The possibilities are endless, no? When the Vikings get Sidney Rice back to pair up with Randy Moss, those 2 could become one of the league’s most productive duo at receiver, right? Adrian Peterson gets 1 less defender around the box and Brett Favre gets a significant spice of variety. Can it work? It can work wonders, but health, particularly Favre’s, will be the biggest determining factor.
Still, the Vikings made a bold move and it didn’t cost them much to make.

Case For The Defense
-
Party on.
Despite the headaches and heartbreak that have plagued the City of New Orleans and its neighbors in the Gulf Coast region, the great people there continue to celebrate their Saints. And why not?
Though the Saints high-powered offense wasn’t clicking on all cylinders Thursday night, the defending champs had plenty in the tank on defense to slow down Brett Favre and his mates in a ho-hum 14-9 victory before a rousing crowd in New Orleans.

Here We Go Again

Can anyone explain to us why ESPN turns into the paparazzi when it comes to Brett Favre?
ESPN analyst Tedy Bruschi came up huge today. Bruschi ripped Vikings Coach Brad Childress for his handling of the Brett Favre soap opera. As we mentioned here weeks ago, Bruschi brought up how Childress showed his true colors by whining about Adrian Peterson missing a day of mini camp months ago, while Favre has held the team hostage until flying to Minnesota today. And that didn’t occur until 3 of his teammates showed up on his doorstep in Mississippi.

Mass Hysteria

Imagine if this is Brett Favre’s way of playing a joke. Is anyone other than ESPN taking this serious? “He’s not a half-baked guy.” We beg to differ, but that is what Vikings Coach Brad Childress said today regarding Favre’s possible retirement. Childress said Favre hasn’t told him he is quitting. Hmmm. One of those cases where the jilted lover is the last to know? Wouldn’t that be poetic justice? Meanwhile, sportswriters are running over each other for the story.
Panic city.

The meter on Brett Favre is running again. Oh, the hypocrisy. Vikings Coach Brad Childress was pissing and moaning months ago because Adrian Peterson missing a worthless workout. Favre? Take your time dude, no problem, Childress says. Favre is holding the Vikings hostage again, but the club has to know he’s returning, no?

Brad Childress will never be confused with the smartest tool in the shed or even being one of the smartest coaches in the NFL. He let the Vikings know this week that it’s OK for Brett Favre to hold the team hostage as long as he wants, but he starts pissing and moaning if Adrian Peterson, the best running back in the league, misses a day of minicamp.

A Mind Is A Terrible Thing To Waste
- Despite the fumbles by Adrian Peterson and the rest of the turnovers, the Vikings had the NFC Championship in their grasp on their final offensive possession. Who goofed? Well obviously, Brett Favre, but again what was Brad Childress thinking? If there was one bet I would have wagered the farm Sunday, it would have been the Minnesota coach having a brain cramp at some point in the game. It’s as reliable as sluggish Monday mornings. That the screw up would occur at the most critical part of it (fellas, the Super Bowl is on line one…oops, it hung up) still blew me away. Dude!
Of course much of the post-game talk switched from that to “are you coming back, Brett?” I guess you’ve got to ask the question, but we all knew the answer.
