Genetic Jackhammer Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Vikings | George interested in returning to Minnesota Mon, 29 Oct 2007 15:06:17 -0700 Sean Jensen, of the Pioneer Press, reports QB Jeff George, who last played in an NFL game in 2001, is interested in returning to the league for the Minnesota Vikings. "I know they're banged up," said George. "But with a running back like Adrian Peterson, I would be licking my chops. With that running back, you need someone who can throw that deep ball, and I know I still can. I don't care about the talent at receiver." I would think the Vikes would have to be pretty desperate to sing George. Any thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big John Posted October 29, 2007 Share Posted October 29, 2007 Last year, he could not beat out Aaron Brooks and was cut by the Raiders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chargerz Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hopefully George can start this week against the Bolts so that they can rip him limb from limb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xtra Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 (edited) Maybe they can make him player coach and toss Childress too. Edited October 30, 2007 by xtra Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaP'N GRuNGe Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Hopefully George can start this week against the Bolts so that they can rip him limb from limb. Can he really be any worse than Holcomb or Bollinger? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaP'N GRuNGe Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 In a wait and see mode for next year to see what the Vikings will do at the QB position. Just one more reason to go out and trade for McNabb (assuming Chilly doesn't get the axe): Rogers coached McNabb Vikings quarterbacks coach Kevin Rogers coached Donovan McNabb for four years at Syracuse and knew the Eagles made a great choice when they drafted McNabb in the first round, second overall, in 1999. In fact one reason Vikings coach Brad Childress hired Rogers is because he saw what a well-coached quarterback McNabb was out of college when Childress was Philadelphia's quarterbacks coach.
