I get it. You played against him and there is a personal connection. But my God, if you really think Murray is out playing mckinnon, or even justifying more playing time, then you need to watch film again.

Case doesnt see the whole field. I know a lot of QBs miss open receivers, even Erin, but Case misses wide open guys. Not just today but he has all season. But he finds ways to win games.

Are you joking me??! Looks pretty classy when a mod tries to accuse me of "trolling". Nothing to say about McKinnon losing 6 on one drive but call me a troll? Not gonna lie that's bull

Not sure how you can dispute what I said. Mckinnon has been able to succeed with his quick cuts and improvisation. These two things aren't readily in his tool belt.

We label Keenum a backup but he's better that a lot of starters the Vikings have had and even in this league today.

Still, he does limit what the offense can do.

Putting words in my mouth. Never said he's outplaying McKinnon. But after a no gainer guys complain and McKinnon loses 6 and nobody says a word

That's better, LM.

He gets what's blocked. Or less. McKinnon creates and accelerates.

You mean with a free dude in his face when he got the ball? Not on JM. Wouldn't be on LM.

Neither McKinnon or Murray are gonna be "The Guy"... There's a reason Dalvin Cook was the starter Week 1...

McKinnon and Murray each offer something useful and we will need both of them to contribute. It could be worse.

But he was so good when he was in high school!
