Former Vikings' quarterback Joe Kapp has seen his name in the papers for throwing a punch last weekend at a Canadian football alumni luncheon. Kapp says he regrets that it even happened, but he's glad the fight was caught on video.

Between Tarkenton and Tarkenton, there was a quarterback named Joe Kapp who led the Vikings to the Super Bowl. In a gift that keeps on giving, check out this YouTube highlight reel of Capp, single-bar face mask and all.

Once upon a time, the Vikings had a feared defense. Here, Carl Eller and the Minnesota Vikings blank O.J. Simpson's Buffalo Bills, 19-0, on Oct. 3, 1971, at Metropolitan Stadium in Bloomington.

Former Vikings' offensive lineman Ron Yary told the Pioneer Press that he believes Christian Ponder is the best quarterback Minnesota has had since Fran Tarkenton and Joe Kapp were barking out signals.

It doesn’t sound like ex-Viking Donovan McNabb wants to go quietly from the NFL. He tells NBC Sports there’s an “80 to 90” percent chance he’ll play this year and has narrowed his choice of teams down to three.

Rice star Tommy Kramer, who played quarterback for the Minnesota Vikings in the post-Tarkenton era, is among 14 players who have been selected to the College Football Hall of Fame.

The battle between Christian Ponder and Joe Webb will likely rage on until the start of next season. But quarterback controversies are nothing new to Minnesota. Ex-Viking quarterbacks Jeff George, Randall Cunningham, Wade Wilson, Rich Gannon, Warren Moon and Tommy Kramer have all been involved in controversies of their own.
