That was a terrible attempt at a tackle by that guy on Harvin. It looked like it was a big hit, but if you've ever played football, you know that this did really nothing to stop Harvin because it was all upper body and no legs.
It's very hard to play a full 60 minutes of football, especially coming off of a bye against a 1-8 team. I expect a better effort this week against Seattle, and then a dominant game to put the division away against the Bears.

Yeah you're right he didn't score. I thought he did for some reason, I still think it was a sick play.

Looks like the Vikings are doing well in the Pro Bowl Voting so far.
Quote:
Fan voting counts for one-third of the Pro Bowl selections and so far the Vikings are getting a lot of support in that area.
The NFL provided updated Pro Bowl voting results and 10 Vikings lead their respective positions in the NFC in fan voting on NFL.com. Five others -- including quarterback Brett Favre -- are currently second in fan voting.
Running back Adrian Peterson has collected the third-highest vote total among all NFL players behind quarterbacks Drew Brees and Peyton Manning. Favre is fourth overall.
Vikings who lead their positions in the NFC are Peterson, fullback Naufahu Tahi, offensive tackle Bryant McKinnie, offensive guard Steve Hutchinson, center John Sullivan, defensive end Jared Allen, defensive tackle Pat Williams, kick returner Percy Harvin, kicker Ryan Longwell and special teams player Heath Farwell.
Vikings who are currently second in fan voting are Favre, defensive tackle Kevin Williams, offensive guard Anthony Herrera, cornerback Antoine Winfield, outside linebacker Chad Greenway and punter Chris Kluwe.

Tahi? Sullivan? Herrera?
Holy ****, I knew we have gotten some bandwagon fans over the last month or two but wow. Even Pat Williams is a pretty bad choice this year.

This. I can't believe Tahi is there. He sucks at blocking. Sullivan I can see, he's done really well. He's just young and, thus far, unproven. I don't know what people are on when the voted for Herrera, but whatever it is, I want some.

If we had that many players on the probowl team, we might as well just send the rest of the Vikings team. I really wish Sidney Rice got some votes.....

I read that on ESPN.com's NFC North blog and was def. surprised by some, particularly Tahi, and those that others have said. Especially Tahi though. I know not that many teams use a FB anymore, but I know there are better ones than Tahi. Hell, Dugan has been better at FB than Tahi.

It must be the name. And the fact that he can't block a child.

I think the reason Tahi is at the top is because most people don't know the FBs just vote for their teams FB, or a FB on one of the best teams with a good rush offense. The same could be said for interior linemen the average fan has no idea who all are the best Guards & Centers.
What surprises me the most personally is that Pat Williams(having a down year) is getting more votes than Kevin Williams(who is having one of his very best years).

Dugan is a great FB. I really think he is turning into Chris Cooley esque. If not now, he will be soon.

Yikes. Thats a major comparison. Cooley is a great athlete...Dugan, well he isn't. He's a decent contributor but he's not Chris Cooley. He's not even close.

That is just so so so far off. Even the homer in me thinks you're crazy.

Read what I posted. I didn't say he was Chris Cooley, I said he could be like him. From what I've seen, Jeff Dugan has really good hands. And he is a good blocker. I'm not a homer. Jeff Dugan hasn't been given a chance, don't judge him until he has proven that he sucks.

Just because he can catch and block doesn't make him anything close to Cooley. First off, Cooley doesn't even block at all. Dugan has nowhere near the receiving talent that Cooley has. The only time we actually throw it to Dugan is on about 3-5 yard dumps off a play action. Never said he sucks at all either, but you couldn;t have been farther off with that Chris Cooley comparison.

Rice has gotten my vote..... I love what a competent QB has helped him turn into. He's finally living up to his potential.
Then again, it is his 3rd year; the typical break-out year for wrs.

Favre mic'd for the Lions game. A few chuckleworthy things to be said here. And even Favre can see that Childress tries to get too fancy with playcalling at times.
