Vikings have to make a major trade, and they are going to have to give up some good assets to get the right guy. Can't bail on the season already.

It's not major but maybe a 5th or 6th rounder for McCown? He had some nice moments with subpar talent. It's obviously not a permanent fix but with a new stadium an excited fan base and the most talented team in years It would be nice if it didn't feel like they were phoning in the year by starting a no name rookie or geezer to start the season.

Why in the world would we make a major trade for a 1 year stopgap? Teddy's career isn't over.

Yeah, I'm not interested in giving up assets for another QB who isn't going to be a superstar anyway. A dislocated knee and totally torn ACL is horrible, but he's young and his doctors say he will make a full recovery. Out this year and maybe portions of next, but the kid has a lot of football ahead of him.

I got some feel for the mood of the team 15 minutes ago. LB coach Adam Zimmer is my neighbor, and I chat with him sometimes when we are outside with our dogs. I avoided the Teddy topic as we chatted tonight (in fact we talked baseball instead...he's a huge Rangers fan), but at the end I said "Tough day today". He replied without hesitation "We'll be okay". That's where I am. This team is going to be a dominant defensive team and also has one of the 3 best running backs in the game, and that's enough to make the playoffs. I don't see a SB run with Hill at QB, but it's going to be a good season anyway.

I would try to get AJ McCarron.
