Hope some of the food at Quick Trip doesn't taste like my mom's cooking ( sorry mom, rip)😮
Nobody has talked about that I've heard that Ty Felton didn't even get into the game much at all against the Packers and that's a game that didn't mean anything and wouldn't have been nice to evaluate him?
IF Brian Flores doesnt leave he WILL be the the vikings interim head coach in 2026
Where is the OG Write that down??
Mackey: The Vikings won 9 games with an awful quarterback
Also Mackey: I'm obsessed with that awful quarterback and want him to be the future
Enough with mack jones is he won of us he sucks
Does anyone else thinks it's strange that all/most of the signings are on the defensive side of the ball? I hope that means Flores is staying.
Phil, I understand where you're coming from when you use the "this team won 9 games with terrible QB play" thing, but I'm getting deju vu because it feels just like "this team made Sam Darnold look like an All Pro, so JJ McCarthy will do just fine".
Any franchise that wouldn't hire Jim Harbaugh when he was an option wouldn't consider John Harbaugh either. The decision makers aren't worried about championships. Ours or anyone else's.
I think Bengals should, they need help building that defense, I believe John can have that defense buzzing in about 2 years from the draft
We in Chicago stand with the people of Minneapolis in the aftermath of the most recent act of Trump terrorism
May God's justice be swift upon him.
Tai Felton take is trash.
He absolutely is a heck of a gunner.
Dallas turner was always great, and playing behind great players. Patience and time showed you that.
He was a first round pick… it’s year 2 for him.
Tai Felton was drafted (the very end of the comps) in the third. That’s such a low percentage hit that you all are wayyyy to early to be down on.
It’s honestly pathetic, and I mean that in the most respectful way. The most complex aerial scheme in the league is KOs. There is no X, there’s no slot. All receivers are expected to play every role in Minnesotas offense, and you have two first round picks and a 4th year wr playing ahead of him.
Write this down… Tai Felton will be our wr 3 next season. And will break out in some noticeable fashion.
He will ascend beyond this after 2026, when the Viking trade jordan addison and become a significant part of Minnesota passing offense.
5th round grade… all of you need to go watch his tape and then Effin WAIT…. Egg on your face
Bring in John Harbaugh and send KOC walking!! I'm so over KOC!!
I watched every game for 50 years if they do I'm done with them
Why in God's hell would we want kirk cousins ! You guys ? I'd take the kid from Uw River Falls that just won a natty rather than kirk "fall down" cousins. Cmon stop the stupidity.
Hot take: Kevin Stefanski will be hired by The Ravens as their head coach.
That Bo richter/gabe Murphy prediction by Phil might be the worst prediction in PD history
Sam Darnold smears his trophy in KOC's self loving face. Deservedly so. KOC is an absolute joke and will be fired by the end of next season. WAKE UP PEOPLE, he's wasting the best talent we've ever had, minus AP.
First of all Sam Bradford was traded for after a devastating injury to Bridgewater because of an injury to our quarterback we had no leverage and Sam Bradford former number one pick had tons of talent. Why would you trade a second-round pick or first-round pick on Mac Jones for a 1-year rental you should be fired not only doing that but for thinking about that SMDH 🤦🤦🤦.
whoever wanted Tai Felton should be FIRED!😡
On Darold, I am with Judd. All I want to see Sam do is take 9 sacks, lose 2 fumbles and rip 3 picks.
That defense and running game carried him all season.
Hell no, no Cousins.
Why don't you admit that KOC is a fraud, Kwesi and the scouting team should be fired. JJM is possibly a bust. Complete failure from top to bottom.
Harbaugh for Coach, Malik Willis. Super Bowl Homeboy-
You guys were all positive start of season. Bullshit.
Fans like myself KNEW better. R U on Wilf's payroll??
PLEASE STOP PUSHING THE K COUSINS NARRATIVE
Next time you say, Kurt cousins comes back I unsubscribe I can’t hear this blasphemy
You don’t take a project in the 3rd round? What about Danielle Hunter?
I’m a bit curious about the KOC/KAM presser scheduled for tomorrow, being pushed back to late next week.
Kik would never come back unless he knew he was a starter for at least two years. We would be very smart to bring him back. If you just took the games for the Falcons when Kirk was the starter going forward and he was semi healthy in e played well enough to have the team be 13-3. That is with perhaps the worst offensive coordinator in all of football. The Falcons actual record was 10-6 in those games but the kicker blew one, the refs stole one and his receivers had 3 straight drops when they were going for a game winning field goal. Cousins did his job but circumstances beyond his control cost the team 3 games. I will take 13-3 any day. Hell even 10-6 wins that division going away. The Falcons cost themselves 2 division titles by benching Kirk. I think that the new coach will keep him and win the next 4 division titles with Kirk leading the way. Write that down!!
Reports estimate Peterson spent over a million on guest travel alone, with the overall birthday party totalling millions, plural. Couple years of financial stability, Judd? Try a lifetime.
Someone better be fired by Friday
We rode camels and elephants at the zoo when i was a kid
If Kirk comes back and is the starter fire koc. Can’t train a rookie qb and going backwards at qb and 9-10 win purgatory all over again 🤦🏾♂️SKOL
KOC is more likely to lead the Vikings to the Super Bowl than John Harbaugh. John was despised by Ravens fans for being an absolute failure, given the amount of talent he had been given. John was handed a top-5 QB, a top-3 RB, and a defense bursting with talent, and the furthest he could make it since Lamar got drafted was the AFC Championship Game. He choked away multiple massive leads against bottom-dwelling teams. Teams that want Harbaugh are stuck believing that it is still 2012 and he has just won a Super Bowl. It is currently 2026.
I want Thor on. I don't think his ego could take being told how often he is wrong.
I'm riding with KOC over Harbaugh.. people like to jump ship too quickly. I see things very bright with KOC
This guy thinks he's a host. Be quiet
I can't believe the Vikings gave away the best QB in the NFC and got NOTHING FOR IT
35 consecutive starts and 28 wins over two seasons is why Sam Darnold should be the Vikings QB.
FUCK NO ON KIRK
We need qb who could bring impact to whole squad when all the chips are down
Justin jefferson had a 101 yard game against the packers last week. JUSTICE FOR SPORTS DAD PREDICTIONS!!!
What is everyone’s obsession with cousins? No we don’t want him back he didn’t do it for us as a starter why would you want him as a backup get someone who can push jj and make him better not learn how to collect large sums of money with disappointment behind it
Brads really talented. Make him a regular
Jj McCarthy sucks balls
I have a question concerning the last 20 minutes or so today. You actually want Kwesi making those QB decisions?
Love Kirk coming back here…As a BackUp Darnold will do Darnold things and Seaturds will be 1 and done Whoever signs Mac Jones is going to regret sooner than later
We need a high dollar quarterback, who cares about salary cost
The Raven's draft much more consistently for Harbaugh than what KOC has gotten to develop.
Might have to skip this episode
