Yep, still absolutely love this picture after all this time.

Warren Moon put together a couple of decent seasons as quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings, but he couldn't get past the long-term, sustained excellence of his opponent in the first round of our Greatest Viking Of All Time Tournament.

Antoine Winfield easily coasted into the second round of action by beating the Hall of Fame quarterback. Winfield was a true fan favorite in his time with Minnesota, and it showed in the margin of victory. Winfield racked up 147 "recs" from the Daily Norseman readers, while Moon couldn't get to double figures, managing just 6 "recs."

In the next round, Winfield will take on the winner of a match-up between Certified Athletic Trainer Eric Sugarman™ and former Vikings' safety Robert Griffith.

We're nearly through with the first round of our Greatest Viking Of All Time Tournament, ladies and gentlemen! Keep checking back for more results and more opportunities to vote for your favorites in our field.
