Minnesota

Synonomous with great Viking teams are names like Bud Grant and Dennis Green. Grant had enormous success in the 70's. QB Fran Tarkenton and standouts like Chuck Foreman, Ahmad Rashad, Sammy White and Brent McClanahan paced a very potent offense. The defense, nicknamed the "Purple People Eaters" included such great players as Carl Eller, Walley Hilgenberg, Alan Page, Jeff Siemon, Nate Wright, and Autry Beamon. Dennis Green put together a great Vikings run in the 90's. The success came with great players like Cris Carter, Jack Del Rio, Chris Doleman, John Randle, Randall Cunningham, Corey Fuller, Leroy Hoard, Brad Johnson, Randy Moss, Robert Smith and Korey Stringer.
