5 Points. Spying on the Enemy. Preseason Edition.

Our first preseason game is Friday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We will be playing the Minnesota Vikings (in case you didnt know).

Some things that you need to know about our hated enemy (for this week atleast)

They don't exactly know who their quarterback will be

they know its not a certain number 4 who shall not be named.

They have the baddest runningback in the league (and by bad i mean will run all day)

they're predicting almost 1900 yards rushing for this season for AP alone. wow.

The aptly named "Williams Wall" will probably be playing the whole season

these beasts will test our o-line and addai/brown.

Be sure to head over to the Daily Norseman and remind them of the great comeback we handed them last year.

boy did we need that win

Rookies, rookies, rookies. Percy, Asher and Jasper. I like. I like

Percy "pothead" Harvin is a threat. Natural talent. Jasper Brinkley has a place in my heart being from S. Carolina. I will be watching him closely.

Last year I picked the Vikes to make the superbowl. But with a 10-6 record they made the playoffs barely and lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Wildcard game. I'm still big on the Vikes and believe they just need some solid QB play to take them the distance (where the colts will stop them).

The guys over at Daily Norseman are awesome and the arguments with the Pack and Bears are intense. Head over there and Spy on the Enemy.

Expect more of these. (only if you like them. feedback appreciated)

All I have to say about the Vikings is,

Adrian Peterson is ready for some Football!!!!!!

Interesting idea

I guess this will be a lot more entertaining once the “real” season begins. But good job.

it will be more entertaining once the real season starts. I really like what they are doing over at Niners Nation with the Know Thy Enemy. maybe we need BBS to make some accusations and have shake back it up with some random/ obscure facts

But I’d like too see some more depth. I’m a huge fantasty football (foolish) fan – so hearing some things along those lines would be awesome as well!

Also it would be great to get a look (spy) on the Jags, Texans, and Titans.

Speaking of the Titan’s…did anyone see how terrible Vince Young looked during his first preseason game? Apparently he is fighting for the backup QB now. Oh how he has fallen…

feedback is wonderful

i planned on making it more in depth but i was half asleep last night. consider this the demo version. preseason is for practice. let me know what you want to know and i will try to put it in. for example the fantasy football thing is good. i will try to spy on the next opponent within the week that we play them.

Please, please draft a big Defensive Tackle. Please?
