Favre a Viking

[Rusty Shackleford]

The 'will he, won't he' is finally over and Brett Favre is now a Minnesota Viking. If he can put together a vaguely decent year, coupled with Peterson and their defence, the Vikes must have a shot.

If he adds more on the field than he subtracts in the locker room (which he generally does in his first year with a new organisation), then I think the Bills can contend, but they have to get throught the Pats, Dolphins and Jets in what has become a very tough division. They need a fast start like they had last year or all kinds of fingers are going to start pointing and they could fall apart. Do you know if they're planning to play games in Toronto again this year?

The bills are also commiting to the no huddle this year.... should be interesting to see how that works..... they'll either rack up a heap of points or get totally dominated in time of possesion....

Favre was a national treasure when he retired, but with his sudden turn around regarding his retirement and his below par end of season performance, I am suprised the Vikings are interested in him as a starter.
the Vikings need a QB and quick but not an end of career veteran like Farve what sort of signals is that giving the Vikings current crop of QB's. Also every pass is going to be analysised a million times and when the Vikings start to lose, and they who's head is going to be on the chopping block?

The coach most likely.
