Reaction to Vikings' acquisition of McNabb

Patrick Reusse had a great column today, using Alex Smith and Aaron Rodgers as examples of why it was a good idea for the Vikings to bring in McNabb.

Pioneer Press columnist Bob Sansevere says some in the Vikings organization wanted Matt Hasselbeck but head coach Leslie Frazier preferred McNabb because of his history with the veteran QB.

ESPN.com offers some reasons to think McNabb will be successful in Minnesota.

Kevin Seifert, a former newspaper guy who covered the Vikings, writes in his ESPN.com blog that McNabb is expensive insurance, a good move but not someone who will  change the course of the franchise.

Jason Whitlock of foxsports.com says McNabb "has one season to remove the stench from his year" and thus "no player in the NFL faces more pressure."

David Steele of SportingNews.com calls it a good thing for both McNabb and the Vikings.
