Vikings set at Receiver position

The Minnesota Vikings have completed their preseason with a perfect 4-0 record with victories over the Raiders, Cardinals, Chiefs and last night, the Tennessee Titans.  One thing is certain of this preseason…the Vikings are deep at the receiver position.

While it is certain that receiver Jerome Simpson has been suspended for the first three games of the season in response to a drunken driving arrest last November, the team still has Greg Jennings, Cordarrelle Patterson, Jarius Wright, Adam Thielen, Kain Colter and Rodney Smith.

The Vikings open the regular season on the road against the Rams.  Great seats and cheap tickets are still available so be sure to get yours now and cheer on your Minnesota Vikings.

 

 

Quarterback Position Cassel’s to lose

It would seem that the Christian Ponder era is pretty much over after three hardly inspiring season at the helm of the Vikings exemplified by last seasons nine games played highlighted by seven touchdowns to nine interceptions.

Over the summer, the organization drafted the 31st overall pick, Louisville arm Teddy Bridgewater and Cassel had a decent season in the nine games he played in completing 153 of 254 for 1,807 yards, 11 TD’s and nine touchdowns.  At 32, Cassell will be the bridge between the present and the future but rest assured, if he comes out stumbling, calls for Bridgewater to start will begin to howl in the North Star State!

The Vikings kick off preseason at home against the Oakland Raiders. Plenty of cheap tickets and great seats are still available!  Get yours now!
