Do not understand why Vikings always trade out of third round

This has happened multiple times under the regime of Rick Spielman being that the Vikings always seem to trade out of the third round to gain multiple picks in the sixth or seventh round. When is the last time that a sixth or seventh round pick make a huge impact on the team? I do not understand whe...

Re: Anthony Barr/Sheldon Richardson...Good riddance!!!

I don't understand why we are paying Barr this kind of money when we can get somebody to match or exceed his production at a cheaper price. We need OL help more than we need Barr!!!!

Anthony Barr/Sheldon Richardson...Good riddance!!!

I say good riddance to both of these guys. Lets take a look at them one at a time. Anthony Barr-simply just not productive enough to warrant the money that he wanted from the Vikings and especially not worth the money that he got from the Jets. There were games where he would flash and would make so...

Why did Kirk Cousins not play like Tom Brady?

So I know I will probably get killed by the comparison between Cousins and Brady, but just to get some conversation going why cant Cousins play like Brady? They both cannot run to get out of a fire, they both came from the Big 10, they both have comparable receivers and running backs. Well for start...

So here is my problem with the Vikings offense of 2018

Obviously, my favorite team is the Minnesota Vikings, but I watch other teams across the league as well and especially what they do on offense. Look at the final four teams that are left in the playoffs: Kansas City Chiefs, New England Patriots, Los Angeles Rams and the New Orleans Saints. As you lo...

Antonio Brown a Viking? (Hypothetical)

What do you think the prospect of the Vikings acquiring Antonio Brown from the Steelers? It sounds like the Steelers maybe willing to trade Antonio Brown in the offseason and the Vikings need another reliable and dangerous wide receiver. The Vikings know what they have in Stefon Diggs and Adam Thiel...

Vikings keeping Stefanski as Offensive Coordinator

The Vikings announced on Wednesday that Kevin Stefanski will be the full-time offensive coordinator going into the 2019 season. The jury is still out on whether this will be a good hire or not. Hopefully, after a full off-season and training camp under his belt Stefanski will bring some pep and inno...

Joe Flacco a Viking?

Now, obviously this is just mere speculation but I got to thinking what if Joe Flacco somehow could become a Viking next year? I was listening to John Harbaugh's post game press conference today after their loss to the Chargers and he was saying that going forward that the Ravens are going with Lama...

"Da Bears...hahaha!!!!

Just finished watching the Bears/Eagles game and that was so satisfying to watch the arrogant and over-confident Bears fall to the Eagles. Mitchell Trubisky is going to be the biggest weakness for the Bears for years to come. Trubisky can run and scramble and buy some time, but he still has trouble ...

The list of Vikings players that should not be back next year!!!

Well, the season is over way too early, but not really if we are all truly honest with ourselves on how the Vikings played for the majority of the year. It is a sad ending to a year with truly high expectations that never really materialized. If the Vikings had somehow gotten into the playoffs, base...

Re: Off season changes/ hirings & firings

Talking about changes, I would love to see on ESPN: BREAKING NEWS: THE MINNESOTA VIKINGS HAVE FIRED HEAD COACH MIKE ZIMMER AND GM RICK SPIELMAN. That would truly make a great New Year's present. I have been saying all year that Mike Zimmer will NEVER get the Vikings to the Super Bowl. He showed us t...

Re: A little venting....

Yeah....Remmers and Compton....both of these guys are a disgrace to NFL guards. If we had won today, it would have been a blow out next week at Soldier Field. I was really surprised at how low energy the Vikings were today.
