MANKATO, Minn. - If the Vikings' offensive line were a political filmmaker, it would be Michael Moore. It leans that heavily to the left....

good read.
it pissed me off to hear the reporter saying the vikes would be looking if someone becomes available.
there were alot more bodies available in march than there going to be now.
if they end up doing so, and that guy ends up cracking our lineup you gotta scratch your head a bit and wonder why they didn't address it earlier in free agency.
there were some solid guys out there.
the draft you could understand cuz it was a weak class of lineman and not deep, but to not sign anyone in free agency and then be an issue makes it frustrating.

It would be great to pick up someone who could fit in the scheme, but I don't know that that guy is out there.
We probably need to develope from within.
Marcus or Cook gaining valuable experience...it could be worse.
I hope one (or both) of them steps up.
Hey, it could happen...

Hopefully that right side is set now and will continue to improve with coaching and reps against our defense. If somebody that could help us becomes available, we have some debth at some other position's, and could maybe swing a trade.

This is just a joke so don't attack me.
Maybe we should just put big Pat on the right side and let everyone try and beat him.
He can just stand there and by the time they run around him the QB should have already thrown the ball.

well he definitely has the size.
they should just bring david dixon outta retirement.

It won't work. They're running around McKinnie as it is & still have time to get to the QB.

If it don't get "fixed" it will be along season for TJ, if he survives the whole season.

I'm not worried about it. The Eagles havent finished cutting players yet. Once we get the players that make it there I'm sure they will be on our roster! Then the line will be as cool as the Fonz, heeeyyyyy! ;D
