Filed under: Vikings , NFC North , NFL Injuries After years of papering over problems in the secondary, the Vikings finally went out and did something about it. Mike Doss and Tank Williams weren't the answer, and every year Dwight Smith's range diminished just a little more. But by going out and getting Madieu Williams, Minnesota answered the need for a rangy free safety. Then just to be safe, the...

My last mock draft sucked because I thought the Colts got an additional 7th round comp pick for Mike Doss. They didn't. So, this mock is more accurate. Also, this mock is created under the assumption that RB Chris Johnson, DE Cliff Avril, DT Trevor Laws, and RB Matt Forte are off the board. Mock and enjoy: John Carlson, TE Notre Dame Marcus Howard , DE Georgia John Greco , OT Toldeo Jack Williams,...

An altercation with Vikings coach Brad Childress left safety Dwight Smith on the bench for the first series of Sunday's game. Mike Doss started, and Smith entered the game at the start of the second series. It was the third time in two seasons Childress has disciplined Smith for various bits of misconduct. Smith would not reveal the exact nature of what he alternately termed a "disagreement" and a...

Returning from his son's funeral to coach a game against the Cardinals, Mike Doss and the Colts defense stopped Arizona on 4th and goal to win the game. Doss ran over to the sideline after recovering the game-winning fumble, and handed Dungy the game ball; a powerful memory in the minds of many Colts fans. I was depressed yesterday (and I'm still saddened today) regarding the news about Sean Taylor....

While the Vikings are relatively healthy going into tomorrow's game (yes, we're a little more than 24 hours away), the same can't be said of the guys we'll be lining up against. Here's the current Vikings' injury report: OUT S Mike Doss (calf) QUESTIONABLE WR Robert Ferguson (ankle) PROBABLE LB Vinny Ciurciu (hand) LB E.J. Henderson (illness) DE Darrion Scott (shoulder) WR Bobby Wade (ankle) S Tank...

For my money, Mike Doss is one of my favorite all-time Buckeye defenders. He gets the nod today

MANKATO - Greg Blue knew the training-camp competition for the Vikings' safety jobs would be spirited when he learned last April that the team had decided to up the ante. A position group that included veterans Darren Sharper, Dwight Smith and Tank Williams added another when Mike Doss signed a one-year, $1 million contract. Blue's reaction? "That's the NFL right there," he said. "There is always competition....

Many NFL players dread June, having to practice without pads during mandatory minicamps across the league. Then there's Mike Doss. The former Indianapolis Colts star safety was downright giddy when he stepped on the field for the Minnesota Vikings this weekend. It's been a long road back for Doss, who was limited to six games for the Colts last season after a knee injury against Washington. "I was...

You can read some of the reaction to new Viking Mike Doss at Vikings Now , Vikes Geek , Skol Vikes , and the Fanhouse . Though a part of me feels like Clark Griswold saying, "Do you really think it matters, Eddie?" The New York Times has an article about why Mickey Mantle is such a literary muse. And now, for the self-indulgent and boring portion of this post (no, this isn't about a Sofia Coppola movie)....

Snow on the ground and temps in the teens. You have to love April in Minnesota! The big news for Viking fans, as Pro Football Talk notes, is that safety Mike Doss has signed with the Vikings (this means it's time to scrounge through shoe boxes of football cards looking for my Mike Doss rookie cards that before this moment I cared about not at all). But why does this make sense? I guess you can never...
