Justin Jefferson on his 2025-2026 NFL season: “how I’m not? A lot of people base if off the QB play. … If I don’t have an elite QB throwing me the ball the entire year, then it’s a little bit difficult to be in those conversations. Having a young QB that’s still learning the game and his potential, you have those difficult seasons which I had this past year. I still think I’m number 1.”

  8. Jefferson is being honest I believe, I've been watching football since I was 10 in 1969 and I see huge potential in JJ, fans need to learn some patience or never draft another rookie again. I'm frustrated after all these years too but still use common sense. Everyone was calling Dallas Turner a bust too.

  13. I would 100% be behind Malik Willis at 2 for 45 million and he would beat out JJM for at least 2 years and then we can decide on who is the long term. We let Jones and Darnold walk being cheap and hoping on JJ. Let's not make the same mistake again. Willis can be a starter no question.

  17. Jefferson should move on. The Vikings organization is awful. The Wilf family is rotten to the core. Who wants to go to Minneapolis? The Wilf family needs to sell the team to some owner actually from Minnesota.

  20. Murray? You can’t be serious? The guy is trash. There are about 7 other options that are better than Murray and even Tommy Kramer coming out of retirement would be better option!

  23. There are so many people on here that know nothing about NFL talent, it’s literally unbelievable and embarrassing. Murray is complete trash and JJ is not a starting caliber QB! We need to do whatever we can to try to trade for Burrow. There is only about a 5% chance that will happen so the next best option would be to get Malik Willis.

  32. Pat klyer really? Bro jj showed sum dog comeback wins but he also showed why hes a 2nd year rookie 😂😂 just give jj 2 3 years to develop ik Justin wants to win now we all do but how can we unless joe walks to his gm and wants out jj is my qb1 next year
