Take this for what it is worth (from yesterday): http://myespn.go.com/blogs/afcwest/0-3-1255/AFC-West-news-and-notes.html

“The Chiefs could be emerging as the favorites to land Pioli. The team is concentrating on him. Kansas City has other executives on its radar, but is focusing on Pioli.”

14:40

Did we ever find out if the Vikings game sold out or not? It seems full…

14:03

Ed Reed would have picked that pass off. First down Philly.

12:39

So much for Pat Williams being out. The Vikings are getting all kinds of pressure.

12:33

Fourth and inches leads to a punt. Here comes Peterson…

What is the deal with Dustin Colquitt punting for every team in the playoffs? Seriously, this is nuts. I will say that I am not looking forward to a 15 minute segment on ESPN about why the punting has been so good in these playoffs.

12:08

Wow. Tevaris Jackson sucks. Ed Reed DEFINITELY would have picked that off.

11:14

I kind of want to see Matt Cassel go to Minnesota. That would be a fun team to watch if they could get someone other than Gus Ferotte or Jackson QBing for them.

Think they’ll do a Tyler Thigpen for Jared Allen trade?

9:52

Chester Taylor is going nuts so far on the Vikings first possession.

9:01

I hate Joe Buck. I hate Joe Buck so much that I would listen to Phil Simms for hours on end for the rest of my life if it meant I never heard Joe Buck’s voice again.

8:22

DeSean Jackson with a great punt return to set up the Eagles nicely in Viking territory.

Ed Reed would taken it back…

7:31

Jared Allen with the “sack.” God I miss that guy… He was a fantastic long snapper.

6:49

McNabb pulls off an Eli Manning In The Super Bowl move and somehow avoids the sack. Only this time his pass was incomplete and Eagles were penalized for holding.

Akers hits the field goal and gives the Eagles the 3-0 lead.

I want to reiterate how excited I am that Fox will no longer be showing BCS games after this year. I hate Fox’ coverage of the BCS. However, I’m not looking forward to the ESPN overload that is going to come with this. Diversity is nice when the other people know what they are doing, which sadly is nobody right now. Maybe CBS. They have Gus Johnson – I love that guy.

I’ve always secretly (not really secretly…) that Gus was calling the NCAA Championship game last year when Chalmers hit that shot. That would have been an amazing call. Still, I’m not upset. CHAMPIONSHIP!

6:22

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaand Adrian Peterson is hurt.

5:56

Chester Taylor > Adrian Peterson … So far in this game that is.

5:13

A Bernard Berrian sighting. One offensive lineman was very pleased with this development and did a bit of jig to celebrate.

4:44

Tyler Thigpen > Tevaris Jackson

4:17

Matt Blundin > Tevaris Jackson

3:48
Marques Hagans > Tevaris Jackson
2:41

Vikings will punt – again. DeSean Jackson is preparing for another return, but the punt goes out of bounds at the 25. Clearly, Dustin Colquitt has chosen NOT to punt for the Vikings. Everybody else? Yes. Vikings? No. Why? Tevaris Jackson.

1:47

Correll Buckhalter has more rushing yards than Brian Westbrook and Adrian Peterson combine.

Correll Buckhalter = 27 yards
Peterson, Westbrook and Chester Taylor = 28 yards

Oh, and Buckhalter has just one carry. Figures.

:06

Vikings call a timeout to preserve time on the clock. Or something…

:02

Akers hits a field goal to make it 6-0. Fantasy!!!!!!!!!!!!! But not for me…
