Can I get an amen Cajun.

I'll give you an amen to that. We just have to go get him.

As far as the new current Vikings, it's hard to pick one from the other. I'm very excited to see the running game. With Birk back, McKennie, Hutch, and Richardson leading the way, Taylor should have a breakout year.

On the other side of the ball, I look forwrd to seeing if Greenway picks up the defense well and how Tank and Sharper gel as a duo. To me this is one of the most interesting offseasons. So many changes in personnel (like 2005) but hopefully the gelling ha[pens quicker than it did last year.

With a better and more consistent running game, defenses will have to play honest and can't tee off on the QB. That should allow BJ to be confortable and get the semi-long ball to the very quick WRs we have. Willaimson, K-Rob and Taylor should be interesting as well as C-Taylor out of the backfield.

All of them!

I remember how AWFUL Cullpepper looked his rookie season!!
Im not sure i want to see that again with T.Jackson!!
I'll settle for a decent showing by the defense overall!!
If the defense is improved, it will help our offense!
I really dont see us lighting it up this year!

You took the words right out of my mouth. There are alot of to the starting corps, and I am excited to see all of them!

if I was forced to pick, I think Greenway will be the most exciting, simply because I see him making a lot of sportscenter-isc plays. I think Hutch will make the biggest contribution overall though.

I really want to see how the running game will work this year!! Chester Taylor, Hutch, Richardson!! If those guys can really get things rolling then the running game will be really exciting!!!

I have to go with Steve Hutchinson. That whole transaction was the most offseason NFL-type fun I've had in a few years. The 'poison pill' blues for Seattle and then they try to come back at us by overpaying a mediocre Burleson. Fuck the Seachickens. I can't wait for that game.

I can't wait for that game either, but its going to really suck if we loose. Every Seachicken fan in Seattle is going to think they "won" the whole Hutch, Burle, Poison pill battle.

Well, since I have to decide:

Offense: Chester Taylor. I hope he can get the job done, but I've always had a soft spot for Mewelde. Tarvaris Jackson comes in second, because I want to see him play when he is ready. I will be watching him closely in Preseason though.

Defense: Chad Greenway. I'm a defensive-minded kind of guy, so this was a no brainer for me. I'm intrigued to see what Tank Williams can do also.
