Vikings legend Jim Marshall passes away






















They didn't stat track sacks when Marshall played but a recent study credited him with 130.5 which would place him 22nd in NFL history.
You can see the "Unofficial Leaders" here. The Vikings are represented very well on this list. He'd be tied for 5th of players that played primarily before 1980.

 

Wow, Fran. This was really something.

"He never missed a practice. He never missed a game."

Today, we have "mental health" and "maintenance" days while in the NBA we've been graced with "General Soreness".

I found it funny that Brett Favre broke Marshall's record for most consecutive games played...while wearing a Vikings uniform.
