Bernard Berrian met with Leslie Frazier yesterday and says he will
talk with the coach again today. Berrian has been on the inactive
list twice in the last three weeks. He says his willingness to take

but he acknowledges he has "no idea" whether he'll be kept
around.
EDEN PRAIRIE, Minn. (AP) - Vikings coach Leslie Frazier says
shoring up the run defense is a point of emphasis as they prepare
to play the Carolina Panthers. The Vikings ranked No. 1 in the
league for three straight years from 2006 through 2008 and ranked
second in 2009. But they faltered in stopping the run during key
situations in the loss to Green Bay on Sunday.
MINNEAPOLIS (AP) - City officials say a new Vikings stadium
could be built more cheaply in Minneapolis than in the suburbs.
Mayor R.T. Rybak met with Governor Mark Dayton yesterday and said
after the meeting that the most realistic way to pay for a new
stadium is with a citywide sales tax increase. He says the increase
could also help pay for Target Center improvements.
