Hey guys, Vikings fan here just looking for some info/speculation.

I had my Fantasy draft the other day, and picked up McGahee as a 3rd RB, has he been getting 1st team carries this pre-season or has Moreno?

Who do you guys expect to carry the load at RB this year? Or will it be a shared position?

Thanks in advance.

[Diehard]

It's going to be a committee approach to RB. Moreno and McGahee will split the lion's share of the reps, with the 3rd RB seeing a little action as well. However, McGahee will be the goal line option, so depending on your scoring rules he could be quite viable.

[B-rand]

thank you sir.

First half impressions:

Franklin and Walton continue to be liabilities. Moreno looks, once again, vastly improved. He's showing great final effort and balance. McGahee is being McGahee.

Our passing attack looked very weak in the first half. Sad to see Orton and B Lloyd didn't hook up significantly. Julius Thomas looks like he will get a few passes his way no matter what this season. I think Gronk is a goner.

On defense... VonDoom. Things are looking great. I think they combined for 2.5 sacks on the night. Von could have had 2-4 others but instead got the pressure. Same with Doom, I'm sure.

I think DJ Williams may have sprained his elbow. That will be a few weeks.

Not sure what Bunkley did to his knee, but it looks somewhat bad.

Overall, our defense looks great. Screen passes continue to scare the bejesus out of me, and I think we are also going to look silly on PA a few times this year.

Cassius Vaughn has solidified his spot at nickel, IMO.

Moore has been quiet all night. No face smashing hits, unfortunately.

Tebownites are going crazy on other forums. If Timmy can score even 1 TD, this debate will grow even fiercer if that is imaginable.Second half starts now...

Oh yeah.. Prater came about 3 yards short of nailing a 69 yarder. Yes. 69. Teehee.

Wow. starters still in to start the 3rd. first play Von made a GREAT tackle.

Edit: Crowd sounds LOUD
