Moss to the Vikings?

[mmmdk]

Packers secondary isn't scary to BF & Moss. Vikes are 1-2 and not out of NFC North at all...but that MNF game in NY could pin Vikings at 1-3...with or without Moss.

Moss puts Harvin back in the slot where he belongs, and makes shiancoe get more open opportunities. Rice coming back or not - moss is a great replacement for rice from last season, making their offense at least as good as it was last year. If Rice come sback and is able to be effective this season... watch the hell out.

Not going to crown them, thye have to prove it will work first, but man that offense is scary with Moss in that mix.

And with all the problems were having against bad competition, you have to worry now about minnesota becoming the favorites for the NFC north again.

Well, the vikings defense has been nothing short of "stellar" all season. I highly doubt LT is going off against that front 7 - and I have a feeling Sanchez is still not as good as he has looked of late. It's all about if the vikings can find a way to score against arguably the best defense in the NFL. AP is a big factor in that, and if favre can now go deep...

who knows? I think it will be a low scoring affair.

Vikings beat reporter just tweeted that on a scale of 1-10 with a 10 meaning it's happening, he gave it a 7.

Hmmmmm Moss, Rice, Harvin, Peterson, and a motivated Favre? How would anyone stop that.

by sackin the shit out of favre.. Wit moss their line still sucks.

The bottom line is the pats brain trust has put together several SB winning teams recently. The vikes are still looking for their first. I don't thing this will work out in favor of the vikes.


As far as trading driver for moss. Wtf!

sounds like minn is willing to do whatever it takes with the window they've been given.

Sure sounds that way. I even heard a report that the Vikes would do a deal even if they couldn't work out a long term contract with Moss. Now how dumb would that be. They'd cough up at least 3rd or 4th for 13 regular season games with Moss?

The window is closing for the hapless Vikes. With-in a year it'll be back to Adrian Peterson, a decent defense, and no answer at quarterback. They just aren't built to contend for the long haul like our Packers.

oh they have plenty of hap and are about to get some more. they're thinking now and that's how contending teams need to think.

It's no secret - the vikings are all in this year. They know it, the sports world knows it. They purposely didn't draft a QB, and they did everything they could to bring brett back for one more shot. Rice goes down, and things look bad.

They need a new big play WR, and if the pats are willing to deal Moss, who has no been pretety much a reduced role guy in the pats offense, then the vikings are going to do everything they can to get him.

This year is their window. The next few with a healthy AP they will still be a 9-7 10-6 ceiling type team, but this is the last year, assuming Favre stays relatively healthy all year, that the vikings have a real contending shot at their first SB for the forseeable future. They have to go all in right now honestly. A new QB coming to town soon enough means rebuilding through "most" of the rest of AP's career.

Hopefully this is Herschel Walker 2.0 but I doubt it. Moss has turned to crap before when he's unhappy and a change of scenery to the Queens will probably motivate him. That said it makes me wonder if Sid Rice isn't coming back. Moss is a big deal but IMO Sid Rice is by far the bigger weapon to their offense. They need a move the chains guy not another deep ball threat.

The trade makes sense for both, I bet its real. Really sucks we missed out on the Lynch sweepstakes.

To bad TT doesn't know how to get whatever it takes to win.

whatever losses we have this year it's NOT going to be the fault of the general manager..come on

It's a risky quick fix by Vikings but only on paper; this could work wonders for our NFC North rival and especially All Day. But here comes a cruel 4 game stretch for Vikes:
at NY Jets, Dallas, at Green Bay, at New England plus rest of schedule doesn't give many breaks. Much like the Packer schedule.

No doubt the BF [short training camp] friendly Bye Week helps and the fact that Vikings defense hasn't slipped. It's now or never for Vikings - in the nick of time or too late?

[mmmdk]

Moss to Vikings will go down today.
