2010 Viking QB Options

Now that Brett Favre and the Vikings appear to be headed toward an unthinkable marriage, Minnesota fans are feeling better about their quarterback situation. Unfortunately, this also means the Vikings are signing a guy who has pondered retirement after every season since 1964 (actual time-line might vary). It's left the staff looking toward their options for the following year. They include:

-Sign Patriots back-up QB Kevin O'Connell after he goes all "Matt Cassel" on the league.

-Move up in the 2nd round of the draft to grab Nick Mertens from D1-AA North Dakota State.

-Get Lovie Smith to make fun of Jay Cutler's hair, hurt his feelings and thus, demand a trade.

-Sign the top quarterback from the new UFL league, hoping for Tommy Maddox-like production.

-Sign Michael Vick and put my movie into production.

-Try to resurrect David Carr's career.

-Try to resurrect Joey Harrington's career.

-Try to resurrect Jeff George's career (again).

-Draft Tim Tebow, not to play quarterback, but to spend fifteen minutes with the quarterbacks.

-Convince Joe Mauer to give football one more try.

-Coax Brad Johnson out of retirement.

-Coax Warren Moon out of retirement.

-Coax Tommy Kramer out of retirement.

-Threaten the quarterbacks to listen to Adam Lambert sing after each interception thrown.

-Reward the quarterbacks with a "free boat ride" after every game without an interception.

-Just do the wildcat offense all the time with Percy, Chester, and Adrian.

-Find a grocery bagger who also happens to have played college football before.

-Let Brett Favre jerk the franchise around until he feels like making another comeback in August.

And that just sounds inevitable.
