    WCO, you say! It's not that simple. You make it sound like 'Huey, Duey, & Luey' But it's a valid question, Rastak. And now that you mention a more vertical passing game, well, Holmgren did that BUT.....he set up the vertical game with dink and dunk in the early Favre years plus to some extend the run game. Philly is dink and dunk puritanism hence pretty much what I expect from the Viking offense. Sooo, the Philly defense, now that's another story. I believe the NFC North will be defense oriented division post-Favre, actually, it already is. That's where the Vikes will sweep the feet of off quite the bit of foes this season - and beyond. I believe the Packers will too, if it's this season or not, that's just too early to tell. My main point was, really, that I don't believe in Philly's WCO but there's a chance that version of the WCO won't be stuck in quicksand forever - could even change by midseason. The run game is paramount both for the Packers and Vikings yet both ground games seem unproven.

    Lastly, I am convinced that the Bears better watch this season; the Vikings and Packers are not that far behind. The Bears seem stuck in quicksand, presently, and they're not worldbeaters in my book.

      Even Ahmad Carroll had a couple of interceptions last year--one on a really nice play. It was a gift. You had a wideout that did a 5-yard stop route in press coverage, and ran it poorly. Not hard to cover that one. Dumb throw.

      I think as highly of Smoot's pick as Jason Horton's pick last week. Didn't show me much--just showed me that every dog has their day occasionally. It wasn't too hard to house since there was nobody around to catch him. Just like Horton's pick last week. Actually, the runbacks were identical. Both guys started showboating at the 20 yard line... holding the ball with one hand.

        Damn Harvey, what's a guy gotta do to impress you...LOL....Smoot had a perfectly timed break and pulls the ball out of the recievers hands and streaks down the sideline to score and it's a gift? Now Willie Offord's pick was the gift...Edwards pressured Boller and he threw it right to Offord...I can understand calling that a gift but geez....tough crowd.....
