A Bradford Jersey has been spotted. I've seen more Walsh and Sherels so far

I thought about getting a Sherels jersey too.

Jordyn Sparks is doing the National Anthem. Can you tell her I said "hi" and give her my phone number? :D

The Jags gave the Pack a good run last week but are getting stomped by San Diego. What does it mean, not much, but the Pack's victory last week doesn't even look meh in that light. There was talk the Jags may be an up and coming team, and Packer fans expected to be tested more by the Jags than the Vikes.

Why am I posting this meaningless bs? My pizza and wings haven't arrived yet.

Go Vikes!

I'd love to see the Vikings come out on their first possession tonight, with a new QB, in a new stadium, with Peterson in the backfield and the whole world expecting Turner to do what he usually does and call a run on first down... and then run a play action fake, followed by a deep pass to anybody who can actually get open and haul it in. Diggs, Thielen, Patterson, Johnson... I don't care who they target, just make it work. Electrify that crowd and put the Packers on their heels immediately!

It won't happen. First and Second Downs will be runs to AD.

I'd put a Benjamin on AD up the middle for a one yard gain, but I like your vision much better!

Kind of like Ponder's first pass... against the Packers.

Loins looked pretty tough. It was a good game.

I am! I'm just sitting here. :tongue:

Sorry, that's not what you meant, is it?

I'm not sure but i did see this:
Chris Tomasson ‏@christomasson
The #Vikings have officially said Shamar Stephen replacing Floyd and Trae Waynes replacing Rhodes. They're still keeping the QB a "secret"
