Need Vikings 1976 info

[jeff]

I need to find out the players, skin tone and numbers of the 76 Vikings. I will be able to figure out the more popular players, but the not as well known players are going to be a problem. Thanks.

I painted the Vikings just before they played the Raiders in the Superbowl. I watched the playoffs and used the numbers and fleshtones from the comfort of the TV. Here's the lineup from my Vikings, though I don't know most of their names

WR #42b
WR #82b
TE # 83w
LT #68b
LG #62w
C #53w
RG #66w
RT #73w
QB #10w
RB #44b
RB #41w
RB #49w

LCB #43b
RCB #25b
LLB #60w
MLB #50w
RLB #58w
LDE #81b
LDT #88b
RDT #69w
RDE #70b
S #22w
S #23w

I don't know if there were any starters injured and missing from the games, it was too long ago for me to remember. I just watched the game and wrote down who was playing at the time. Hope this helps

Jeff, the Vikings team I posted must have been the '75 team. It had Dave Osborn and Ed Marinaro as the other backs with Chuck Foreman. I must have had their numbers from the previous year. Sorry about that. It was a long time ago and I really don't remember. I rooted for them when they played the Raiders, must have been the reason why they lost! :rolleyes:

[jeff]

Thanks for the info guys! Now all I need is a name for a big bruiser of a fullback for the squad and a fast shifty tailback . They can be from any era. I already have chuck foreman as 1 back.
