Sean Jensen, of the Pioneer Press, reports though two Minnesota Vikings players were disappointed QB Daunte Culpepper was traded to the Miami Dolphins Tuesday, March 14, Vikings veteran OT Bryant McKinnie and CB Fred Smoot said they have confidence in new starting QB Brad Johnson. "He's won a Super Bowl," McKinnie said of Johnson. "I have confidence in Brad, but I'm not going to say for the next three years." Smoot said Johnson has the experience and talent to thrive as the Vikings' starter, especially in head coach Brad Childress' new West Coast offense. Last week, Vikings owner Zygi Wilf told the St. Paul Pioneer Press that he has no reservations about starting Johnson. But he added that he would leave decisions to the "professionals."

I love the new focus of this team!!!! Go Vikes!

Glad to see McKinney still has faith in the Vikes...

i think mckinnie will stick around only if we have a good season and go past the first round
