Re: Bears at Vikings MNF

Yeah, as said by others, for all the speculation that KOC wants a more mobile qb...I question if he can actually design an offense around one. He is showing a lot of stubborn square peg round hole traits. Dobbs is a bad fit if KOC is going to call plays like it's Kirk back there. Dobbs is a journey...

Re: Bears at Vikings MNF

I kind of want to see Hall. Think everyone knows what Mullens is. Not sure if we do with Hall yet. Strong chance he isn't the guy, let's confirm that though. Is he worth a backup roster spot going forward? Etc

Re: Vikings at Broncos

We were outcoached. Both KO and Flores. Flores had the D playing well, but at times, faltered. Esp when we needed a stop the most. Denver went right down the field and scored a TD. We aernt a good team, maybe average, but not even good. Blackmon was in good position on the duck ball TD, but just di...

Re: Saints at Vikings

He's played on 7 franchises (two twice). That's over 20% of nfl teams, it makes me pause. On the positive, it does mean teams keep acquiring him. Obviously I want to think the previous teams have got it wrong, and the ones on this list (Pitx2, Jax, Clex2, Det, Ten, Ari, and us) haven't screamed QB ...

Re: Saints at Vikings

For the “there’s a reason Josh Dobbs has been on 5 teams in 11 months” crowd, this video makes some great points. And it asks the question, “Did the NFL get it wrong with Josh Dobbs?” https://youtu.be/zdTjGiUW2jM?si=ji2VIaf8LMCuCkQ_ Is it possible they got it wrong? Absolutely. His point about view...

Re: Hicks has surgery — Vikings to sign Anthony Barr

Just saw this and was posting when I saw yours already here. Hicks ended up at hospital Sunday and had to have procedure done on shin. Hope he gets well. Sounded kind of serious. Been playing well. Barr signed to ps after eagles brought him in too. Sounded like we swooped in under them, I'll take th...

Re: Flores

We signed him to three year contract iirc. It really doesn't matter though, if he got a hc offer he's not staying as dc.

My prediction is he won't get a hc offer as long as the lawsuit is still pending and not done.

Re: Who Starts?

He hasn’t made it happen on the previous 5 or 6 teams he’s been on prior to the Vikings. But if anybody can get it out of him, it’s Kevin O’Connell. This is my concern. Let's not act like the guy hasn't been a journeyman and not hung onto rosters. Fans are gonna be over the top, and I expect the co...

I think it may be not clearing protocol right now for Hall. I agree Hall should be backup once cleared.

Re: Who Starts?

We are going to start Dobbs with Mannion as backup right now. "Joshua Dobbs will start the team's Week 10 game against the New Orleans Saints, coach Kevin O'Connell said, with veteran Sean Mannion as the likeliest backup. Rookie Jaren Hall, whose first-quarter concussion Sunday opened the door ...
