James Jones- He had struggled with dropped balls in the past but has corrected that problem for the most part and has made amazing catches this year. Gets open but who doesn't in Green Bay. Jennings won't be back but Jones proved well when receivers were injured.

Cris Cook (cb) Vikes - he never gets burned, rarely has balls thrown his way, and solid tackler. Too bad he's an asshole and struggles to stay on the field. When healthy is a top 10-15 corner.

The line in Minny is pretty darn good. Not sure what you're getting at.

You can thank idiot Brad Childress for losing Matt Birk. Vikings offered Birk the exact same contract the Ravens did but Birk couldn't stand the stupid ass. No doubt in my mind if Birk there for Favres first year, they go to the show. They would if had home field through out the playoffs. Another reason why Birk left is because he grew up in St Paul and wanted to experience something new and Childress put that thought over the edge.

McKinney consistently showed up over weight and set a bad example so when Frasier took over he wasn't going to have that. Plus mcKinney Is a bad character guy, arrested and remember he never showed up for pro bowl practices and was basically "cut" from pro bowl. When Vikes released him he played at a pay cut. Actually Ravens cut him this year but resigned him when he came back for just about veteran minimum. He showed up way over weight again, now at league minimum he decides he better get his ass moving and is playing much better

Vikings offensive line could turn into a road grater if healthy, still lack pass protection but very young. Center John Sullivan probably the most improved player. He really hit the weights and was healthy the entire season which was rare. Add left tackle Khalil who was awesome ad a rookie. Right guard Fusco was just in second season and right tacks Loadholt is a dominant run blocker. Only weakness is left guard Charlie Johnson. I look for that O line to be much better pass blocking next year cause they will be young yet more experienced

from the bears perspective

charles tillman

finally got some national attention this year (even though he made the pro bowl last year).....guy has matched up with big receivers and held his own his entire career and is a fricking turnover machine....but just got that recognition this year.

also has been a primary member of the punt return team and has helped create holes for hester the past 6-7 years in the punt return game.

This should make bleedingpurple happy:

Cris Carter. He should have been in the Hall of Fame years ago.

No doubt, I still remember him saving the game on what looked like a for sure Moss TD years ago. He's got to be getting old but definitely a great corner

I'll vote for Cris Carter for hall of fame anyday :0074
He's a very cool guy and love him on gameday.

Rice is best receiver of all time but If my life depended on 1 catch, I want it to be on Carter's hands
