Pat Williams undecided on his future

Vikings nose tackle Pat Williams reiterated Monday that he is 50-50 on whether he will return for the 2010 season and said he is going to go home and talk it over with his family. Williams admitted he feels "drained" after going through the Vikings' 31-28 loss to New Orleans on Sunday in the NFC Championship Game.

"I feel good [physically]," Williams said. "But yesterday was tough on me. It was draining. You do all that work during the season, so you just feel drained."

Williams said he does not have a timetable for when he would make a decision and told coach Brad Childress on Monday that he would call him once he makes up his mind. Vikings players went through exit meetings with their position coaches on Monday morning, then had a full team meeting and exit physicals.

Would love to have him back, I think he brings attitude to our D Line but my gut tells me he'll retire unless he knows Favre will be back.

He needs to chill for a while before making any decision, there's too much emotion involved right after a big loss to think clearly.

He is one player I hope they sign whatever the price. He is that good, and we need his attitude in the locker room.

His contract isn't up until after next season so that's not the issue.

these players know they missed their best chance of their careers. That's why they are depressed.

How old is he?

There is a good chance he will be suspended for some part of the 2010 season so maybe the shorter season will influence his decision

aren't Edwards and Evans free agents? It would suck to lose 2 starters and a backup from this line in one offseason

I think Edwards is a RFA; we should tender him at a 1st or 2nd round level... at least I'd expect that. Evans I'm not so sure about.

My gut also tells me he will go as Favre goes.
