Both Percy Harvin and Leslie Frazier will be Minnesota Vikings for a long, long time. Both will get long-term deals after the season is over.

There will be some tougher deals to work out for the Vikings after the season is over, but Percy and Frazier won’t be among them.

I think Percy made it clear this summer how he feels about being stuck in MN.

I think coach Frazier is first and foremost a players coach. I also belive that Spielman has drafted well! not only in talented players, But ones that have integrity as well, Which makes Fraziers job a little easier!! Not since the Bud Grant days can I recall a more, No non sense bunch of players!! We are most certainly on the right road!! What good is winning, Without class!! Percy Harvin will get his new deal! And rightly so! he has done everything asked of him and more!! We may not? Make the playoffs! this year but we have quite a few of the pieces in place!! As I see it? this years draft the Vikes will target a number 1 wide out, A top tier corner (you can never have to many good corners) I’m sure there are other opinions out there! And only time will tell Go VIKES!!

Harvin is the best speed-reciever in the league. Why would we even consider not re-signing? This guy give our team so much energy.

One underrated aspect of Leslie Frazier as coach is that the circus atmosphere around the Vikings has disappeared. Childress, Tice, and Green were always drawing attention to themselves with the ridiculous things they would say and do. Frazier is nothing but class, and he’s a good coach too.

Signing Harvin is a no-brainer. Frazier on the other hand in a trickier case.

Given the Vikings current record, and difficult schedule over the final six weeks, if Frazier keeps this team above .500 for the year, he deserves a long-term contract.

If on the other hand, the team loses all four of its remaining division games and finshes below .500, its really a matter of how the Wilfs see Frazier handling the team next year. The Vikings are still very young in many areas, including QB. But sooner or later, you need results. I don’t see Frazier getting fired after this year regardless of how the team finishes. However, I also don’t think a contract extension can be justified if this team finishes 6-10 or 7-9.

Harvin is going to need to see a lot more than 220 yards passing and 2 TDs from Ponder before he decides to make a long term committment to my Vikes.

Harvin will be paid and paid well before game one of next year. We need to add another reciever to complement the talent we already have.

He may not want to talk to the media about both! Frazier & Harvin. But Harvin will have a new deal before the season ends!! thats for sure!! Frazier will almost certainly be inked to a new contract but!! may have to wait a bit longer. He has been doing a great job!! The team has a good direction under the current leadership!!! No changes needed.
