Mythical Runaway Beer Truck finds its mark in Byron Leftwich

Yes, the fickle finger of fate is still alive and well, and involves an ex-Viking attempting a block.

Chances of some team, somewhere, wanting to trade for Sage Rosenfels received somewhat of a boost tonight when Bryon Leftwich went down with a possible MCL injury after colliding with his teammate and former Viking Mewelde Moore:

This bad news for Leftwich means another seat for a backup QB probably opens in the NFL. We'll know more after the MRI.

Sage-o-philes take heart!

Pittsburgh might be looking for a mobile quarterback, and TJ could be reunited with Mike Tomlin.

They have that guy

His name is Dennis Dixon and I would be surprised if he’s not the starter in Pitt now. Although it wouldn’t shock me if they made a trade to try and get some depth there for those first four weeks as well.

I always did like Mewelde Moore.

And look at him now still helping the Vikes out!

It's a lot easier to love the Vikings when they win...

Bennet

That guy was either a one yard pile up or a 99 yard TD. Nothing in between. Is he playing for the Raiders? I saw a Michael Bennet running the ball last night for the Silver’n Black & boy, he sure looked like our old RB.
