(Peterson) (Jackson)Last year I watched a game where one pf the recievers. Rice I believe almost slapped him after a bad through. That means he lacts leadership and will never have the team behind him. Vick was not accurate by any means but I never once saw ine of his recievers call him out. I guarentee Peterson will miss at least 2 games this year. He will have monstor stats though. I believe he is going to be a lot like Clinton Portis. Great player but will never play 100% of games in a season. I think the vikings should really try and resign Pep. If Jackson struggles he could step right in and play solid. If the vikes make the playoffs I believe they will be 1 and done if this problem is not fixed.

The thing that concerns me is the lack of depth at the QB position. Viking need a good QB to take some pressure of Peterson, so they can have a decent passing game.
