There were plenty of people who questioned the additions of Brett Favre and Percy Harvin as well as the departure of Matt Birk. The Vikings are three-for-three, so far, on those calls.

Rice, Sidney (WR)
Posted Nov. 02, 2009 @ 3:33 p.m.
Rice had four catches for 40 yards Sunday in the Vikings' 38-26 win at Green Bay.
It was probably a bit much to ask for a third straight 100-yard day out of Rice, who's turned into Brett Favre's favorite deep threat. Still, it'd be nice to see more touchdowns from Rice considering he hasn't scored since Week 4.
Harvin, Percy (WR)
Posted Nov. 02, 2009 @ 3:31 p.m.
Had it not been for Brett Favre's return to Green Bay, Harvin would have been Sunday's star after catching five passes for 84 yards and a touchdown and returning five kicks for 175 yards in Minnesota's 38-26 win.
Harvin is on his way to ending any debate over the NFL's offensive rookie of the year. He's turned into a threat to score every time he touches the ball.
Peterson, Adrian (RB)
Posted Nov. 02, 2009 @ 3:27 p.m.
Peterson ran 25 times for 97 yards and a touchdown and also caught a 44-yard pass in the Vikings' 38-26 win at Green Bay on Sunday.
There's little doubt Brett Favre's job has been made easier by Peterson, who continues to come up with a few all-world plays each week even if he isn't lighting up the scoreboard. Look for Peterson to run wild against the Detroit Lions after Minnesota's bye week.
Favre, Brett (QB)
Posted Nov. 02, 2009 @ 3:22 p.m.
Favre completed 17 of 28 passes for 244 yards and four touchdowns without an interception, slicing up his former team and sticking it to the franchise that cast him aside as the Minnesota Vikings beat the Green Bay Packers 38-26 at Lambeau Field on Sunday.
Favre has looked like an entirely different QB under center this season than the injured one who ruined the New York Jets' chances of making the playoffs in 2008. His 106.0 QB rating is fourth in the league, he's seventh in yards and is tied for the lead in touchdowns, leaving many to believe he's an MVP candidate.
Berrian, Bernard (WR)
Posted Nov. 01, 2009 @ 2:50 p.m.
Berrian is active for the Minnesota Vikings despite a nagging hamstring injury, giving Brett Favre one of his top targets against his former team.
With Favre as his quarterback, Berrian has 24 catches for 252 yards and two touchdowns.
