I know this will be a challenge but..
......rate the top 5 QB's of all time for the Vikes. Just curious what my fellow Viking brethren think.
My 2 cents:
1. Favre
2. Tark
3. Cunningham
4. Two Minute Tommy
5. I guess Culpepper

Your right I thought about that after I posted it. EDIT. put Tark first and Favre second.

You've got that right.Just Me wrote:Sacrelige!![]()
My list would read:
1.) Fran Tarkenton
2.) Tommy Kramer
3.) Joe Kapp
4.) Daunte Culpepper
5.) A bunch of QBs who stopped off in Minnesota to have one or two good seasons before retiring (Cunningham, Moon, George.,.. and there was one more. I forget his name.)

Re: I know this will be a challenge but..
Kramer had a ton of promise, he had a fantastic season in 1986, was the pro bowl starter. 1987 strike shortened year, Vikings went 0-3 in replacement player games and finished 8-7 (One game was canceled that year) On the run to the title game that started in New Orleans, they decided to start Wade Wilson, similar to what the 9ers did last season. Worked out well, and I know hindsight is 20/20 at times, but I would have liked to see Kramer start the title game in Washington, little more experience.Purple Jesus wrote:1) Spergon Wynn
2) Sage Rosenfels
3) John David Booty
4) Shaun Hill
5) Brooks Bollinger
or
1- Fran Tarkenton
2- Daunte Culpepper
3- Randall Cunningham
4- Brett Favre (for only one season he makes top 5) haha
5- Tommy Kramer I guess. For stat purposes as I never seen him play.

Come on Moth Favre has to be at least #5. Don't discriminate just because he was a fudge packer.Mothman wrote: You've got that right.

1. Randall Cunningham
2. Brett Favre
3. Warren Moon
4. Jim Kelly
5. Thurman Thomas
Ok so the last two aren't really Vikings QBs, but I don't really like many of the QBs the Vikings have had.
