Re: Off-season Prediction Thread

Watching highlights Daniels hit 21 mph on an 85 yard run against FL. Not many in the NFL can do that. He also made some nice throws on every level. Maybe he is the best. Watch JJ for Michigan and he can get outside a collapsing pocket easily. Plus he's looking downfield pointing were the receiver s...

Re: Off-season Prediction Thread

Sorry, should’ve been more clear. This assumes Cousins doesn’t come back. I’d do it for Daniels or Williams. Maye? Not so sure. I think there’s no doubt that KAM/KOC would only do this if they were sold the guy they draft being the franchise. I've only seen 2 QBs in the last 25 years that I conside...

Re: Off-season Prediction Thread

Here’s a question that Matthew Coller posed on his Purple insider podcast. Would you trade the 11th pick in 2024, the 2025 first-round pick, and Christian Darrisaw … to the New England Patriots for the third pick in the 2024 draft? At that point, you’re going to be able to draft Caleb Williams, Dra...

Re: Who Starts?

Or ... when a guy reaches the point Kirk is at in his career he realizes this is his last opportunity to get a big pay day. I think him and the Vikings will have issues on the length of the contract more than the amount. They'll probably want 1 year, he'll probably want 3, and I think there's a tea...

Re: Harrison's Last Season?

If he’s done with the Vikings, I hope he retires.

I remember when Alan Page went to the Bears. That was devastating to me. I wouldn’t want to see Harrison Smith in somebody else’s uniform.

Re: Off-season Prediction Thread

To be honest, I was surprised at Hunter’s production this season. I’ve seen that study, too, and I expected a decline. But maybe we actually HAVE seen a decline. After 14 games, Hunter stood at 15.5 sacks and was leading the league. But then he got only one sack the final 3 games, and that sack was...

Re: Who Starts?

I don’t make the quotes. I just post ‘em as I see ‘em. Which team supposedly interested in Kirk is actually better? Atlanta? They just finished 7-10 and fired their head coach. Las Vegas? 8-9 and don’t know who their head coach will be. New England? They’re a mess. Pittsburgh? Better than the Vikin...

Re: Who Starts?

And just about as soon as you write this, we get Cousins talking about it. Stand by folks. Gonna be a wild ride this off-season. I like Kirk and everything, especially after watching the show. That said, I call BS. He more or less said the same thing in July 2017: “I never want to play football thi...

Re: Off-season Prediction Thread

Flores' defense needs a Hunter type to work. I believe without his production, that defense would have been awful. There is a good chance that Hunter's production will drop off dramatically soon, perhaps as soon as next season, but very likely by the season after next. See https://bleacherreport.co...

Re: Who Starts?

Kirk will only go to the Vikings if they give him the most money. Kirk has always been about one thing, making the most money. When a guy reaches the point Kirk is at in his pro career, he may realize money isn't the only reward worth consideration. And just about as soon as you write this, we get ...

Re: Vikings at Lions

Im hoping they lose. The 9th-10th pick would be really nice to either pick a QB (Pennix maybe, small chance) or maybe draft capital and our 9th pick will turn some heads. I’m normally not for tanking, and I absolutely never “root” for them to lose. But this week, I’ll just say I hope they make a ga...

Re: Who Starts?

I brought this up in the Packers thread, but I don’t know what significance, if any, the gjallarhorn had. Could be “we want you back.” Could be “thanks for all you’ve done.” Could be “this’ll get the crowd hyped” and nothing more. As far as the player and the man are concerned, I love Cousins. If h...

Re: Packers at Vikings

What will the Vikings do? Only time will tell. Meanwhile, Mullens likely will start the season finale, probably make enough plays to keep the Vikings in the game, along with enough blunders to ruin any chance of beating a very pissed-off Lions squad that is playing for the No. 2 seed. Looking like ...
