Two Items...

1. We've got Ryan Longwell for four more years. So, the rare times we do march into enemy territory, we can at least get the three points (!). A very reliable kicker, and nothing can sink a team like a shaky field goal game (see: 2002 Vikings).

2. Well, the Seahawks are stealing our guys again, this time Tarvaris Jackson and Sidney Rice. Good riddance to T-Jack, but Rice (providing good health) will be a huge loss. Without a deep threat to stretch opposing defenses and keep them honest, it may look like the 2007/2008 Vikings out there.

One cautionary tale for Seattle: During T-Jack's career in Minny, he had guys like Kelly Holcomb, Brooks Bollinger, Joe Webb, and Gus Frerotte start when he couldn't get the job done. Good luck.

Let's be fair

Any lack of success or ability by T-jack he more than made up for by being injury prone!

They're obviously still pissed about Hutchinson.

Nate Burelson
T-Jack
Sidney Rice
TJ Houz (Outbid us for him)

All of them got way over paid that’s for sure. Keep shootin yourselves in the cap space foot to get even with us Seattle someday it might work but so far no good.
