[minnesota vikings news]

There are two things I really DON'T like about the Vikings coming into training camp.

First and foremost, this has to be, on paper, the worst passing game in the NFL. Tavaras Jackson has two career starts, coming from a Division 1-AA school, in only his second year in the league. Can we trust him throwing to draft bust Troy Williamson (great offseason, supposedly, but I'll need to see it on the field from this guy)? Bobby Wade was their big offseason addition at WR. Billy McMullen doesn’t scare anybody. I like two of their draft choices at WR: Aundrae Allison from East Carolina and Sidney Rice from South Carolina. But we all know that rookie WR’s in the NFL cannot be relied upon the same way that rookie RB’s or LB’s can be counted on – too many top prospects fall flat on their face at receiver against NFL caliber cornerbacks.

So, the passing game is clearly a problem. So is the coaching staff, in my opinion. Sorry, Brad Childress defenders, this coach clearly lost his team down the stretch last year when they closed out the campaign with eight losses in their final ten games following a promising 4-2 start. I didn’t like their effort, I didn’t like their focus and I didn’t like their chemistry. There was a lot of griping and groaning in this locker room, just like there was under Mike Tice and Denny Green before him.

I'm not thrilled about their chances either. Childress got the team's image cleaned up after the loveboat, but thats about all I can say for him. They were really bad last year.
Maybe this is a team for the future. Depends on how that young quarterback works out.
Maybe far in the future.
