Sydney Rice will reportedly miss the Dolphins game and possibly the first half on the season due to surgery on his hip. He was the Vikes #1 receiver/Favre's favorite target last year so this could really hurt them. It just gives us one less thing to worry about on defense as Peterson is enough already. I really don't like players being hurt in the NFL, but with the Fins always having a tough time playing at the Metrodome and not winning there since forever I'll take all the help we can get. I also don't mind because we will be at that game and I really want to see the Fins win.

On a side note this could really hurt the Jets and Pats chances of beating the Vikes as they play them later in the season. Week 5 they face the Jets which is after the Vikes bye week and week 8 they face the Pats.
