Well, I know this, we can't say we don't need him right now. We haven't been able to acquire another deep threat since Rice left last year. I'm sure Sydney would love to catch some TD passes tomorrow. I was one who was very disappointed at us not paying him last year, I mean we paid $6 million to McNabb, who stunk up the place, yet we couldn't pay Rice, after we know what he can do when he's healthy. I hope we can control him on Sunday, it will be very difficult, especially with their very strong running game. I will be very pleased if we win tomorrow, but if our passing game is horrendous like it's been the last 3 weeks, we will get another butt whipping in Seattle!

Another butt whipping? Vikes won big (31-13) last visit to Seattle. Chester ran wild. It was the visit before that (2002) where Shaun Alexander had 5 TD's by halftime....so they're on a 1 game winning streak in the emerald city! Looking forward to seeing tomorrow's game, live. It's gonna be wild n' wet. Skol Vikes!

Pepfan: Boy do we need Chester Taylor coming out of the backfield to catch passes, instead we have Toby Gerhardt who can't even get 1 yard when we need it on 3rd & short! You're going back quite a bit to compare this same Seahawks team to the one we're playing tomorrow. I really wish we were playing that same Seattle team, because even with our anemic passing attack, we could pull out a victory at their house. Unfortunately for us, we're playing a much stronger Seahawks team, who not only have a great running attack, but an above average passing attack, especially with Sydney Rice starting to pick it up. I would like to agree with you that we're going to equal a win of 31-13, but I'll be happy if we can squeak out a victory of 14-13? That would be huge for us when we're in need of a victory to keep our team's morale up!

Who needs Sidney Rice? We got Aromashadu, who was cut by the bears, and Jenkins, who was cut by the falcons.
