Re: Vikings (1-0) at Eagles (1-0) MNF Week 2

I feel like you could read this thread anytime over the last 3+ years and it would be the same issues. There's not a lot of common denominators over that span. I don't think Cousins was the sole reason they lost but $40M is just far too much for this guy. He has so many weapons and an OL made up of...

Re: Vikings vs Pukers 9/11/22

I think the start of the game will be pretty ugly for both teams since none of the starters played in any preseason games. As for the Vikings, after the scripted plays are done, I expect a lot of guys to be confused as to what routes are suppose to be run, who to block and so forth. I am not a fan o...

Re: 8/14/22 PreSeason: Vikings vs Raiders in Las Vegas

Saw highlight of the game on youtube. Didn't even bother to look for the game on TV. The offense uses a lot of 2 TE sets, lots of disguise motion. This offense looks very similar to Scott Linehan's offense when he was OC. Hopefully Linehan 2.0 works out better than 1.0. The new and improved defense...

Re: Draft Day thread

My issue with the draft so far, and quite frankly the whole off season is how familiar this all seems. A defensive coordinator bringing his son as an assistant. A GM that is piling up draft picks for the 3rd year in a row. An expensive free agent with a history of injury problems. Keeping overpaid v...

Tark

Paul Krause for me this round.

Poor Paul Krause, all he did is lead the NFL in INT all times playing mostly 14 game seasons and at a time when they ran 1st, 2nd and 3rd if possible.

Re: 2022 NFL Draft

While a lot of mocks have Linderbaum going in the bottom half of the 1st, I've seen several that have him in the first half of the 2nd, even some with him still on the board when the Vikings 2nd rounder comes up. It's not that he's a bad player. As you note, he's got a lot of good tape, moves well,...

Re: 2022 NFL Draft

I like the Iowa Kid Linderbaum. One of the best interior anchors I've seen in a while. At 290lbs the kid somehow always manages to stone 310+ NT from the Big Ten. The Vikings interior is still a mess. The previous regime stuffed a Tackle at the Guard position because he was the best of what was left...

Re: Kevin O'Connell will be next Vikings coach

So on this board I guess I am labeled as a Cousin "Hater" even though I have his cadence in my signature. I'll accept it as long as some of the members here accept being a Cousin Apologist. I don't think Kellen Mond is "miles" behind Kirk Cousins at all. Of the little I see of hi...

Re: Kevin O'Connell will be next Vikings coach

Dude, please. Open up the competition? For a $45 million quarterback? If Kirk Cousins is a Viking next year, he'll be the starter. That's the classic mistake of sticking with the guy that makes the most money. If your QB of destiny is there, it doesn't matter what the other guy is getting. See Brad...

Re: Kevin O'Connell will be next Vikings coach

Whatever KOC and KAM decide to do with Cousins, I hope they open up the QB position for competition. Their ability to find the franchise QB will make or break their careers. If I had to make a guess right now. If the competition is fair, Kellen Mond beats Cousins out for the starting job. Then you h...

Re: Kevin O'Connell will be next Vikings coach

I realize this could be foolish. But I trust KOC to not be like Josh McDaniels. Even if people think McVay will retire, which he won't. From what I have read about KOC's interviews, the reason why the Vikings chose him over Harbaugh is simply he wanted it more. He came prepared and show ownership an...

Re: Kevin O'Connell will be next Vikings coach

I have to confess seeing the 2022 Super Bowl made me depressed. The Rams Sold the farm put their chips on Matthew Stafford being the missing piece to finally winning the Super Bowl. BINGO!
