Nice find, thanks for sharing.

I think you are going to see the interest in TH accelerate somewhat going into the draft. I predict he will be drafted before the 7th round.

Great find, thanks for posting!

From looking at that, it seems like TH might well benefit from the Russell Wilson effect.

the NCSt folks that I was talking to at the game last season all said TH reminded them of RW when he was there.

I could root for Minnesota.

I grew up in Minnesota watching another undersized, "weak-armed" Viking quarterback have a bit of success. His name was Fran Tarkenton. It just goes to show that it's not always the size of the dog in the fight, but the size of the fight in the dog.

How cool would it be if TH became the next Tark for the Vikes? Come to think of it, they both have Georgia roots too...Taylor grew up there, Tark played college there. Wow, Deja Vu all over again!

the only "problem" is that MINN just drafted a QB in the first round last year. I say "problem" b/c if we're just rooting for him to get drafted and/or stay on a roster as a backup then it doesn't matter who the starter is.

Nice find!

I would love to see Taylor beat out Teddy (if he get drafted to the vikes). I never liked Teddy, even back in L'Ville

Not to mention that Fran played an Oyster Bowl game at Forman Field.

I don't think it matters if they just got Rookie of the Year recipient in Teddy Bridgewater. If you remember, our friends in DC took Griffin and Cousins in the same draft. They were both a reason for the NFC East title in 2012. Management and other issues ruined that situation.

Here's why TH in Minn can work. Bridgewater goes down with an injury. The only other QB on the roster is Mike Kafka (I know, he's so hot right now). Kafka last saw the field in 2011 when he threw no touchdowns and 2 picks for the Eagles. You want Christian Ponder back? Tavaris Jackson? Go ahead! Give an under the radar QB with FCS and FBS experience like TH a shot. There's another Walter Payton award winner in the league who will all give grief to but he's actually pretty good. And whose that? Cowboys QB Tony Romo.

Regardless, we can all agree we want TH in the NFL. No matter if he lands on your favorite team or even your arch rival's!

I'm not sure I can name the archival of the vikes.

Packers.
Same with Chicago!

I believe their biggest rivalry is with the Sisters of St. Paul School for the Blind. Unfortunately, the Vikings have yet to win a game in that rivalry, but the word on the street is that this may be the year.

That was great! Thanks!

That guy really broke down the tape on Heinicke! I hope Norv Turner was listening!

Believe me Norv Turner is well aware of TH. The Vikings sent their QB Coach, who happens to be Norv's son Scott, to ODU's Pro Day.
