I’d be lying if I said I was greatly impressed with the Minnesota Vikings draft this weekend. Thursday night started with the new General Manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah and Head Coach Kevin O’Connell sitting at the 12th pick in the first round of the NFL Draft. It was becoming more of an enviable place to be […]
Every year the NFL holds their annual draft where the new stars of the game may be chosen. I say “may be” because no matter how good a player is supposed to be they may become more infamous than famous if they are a bust. Ryan Leaf, Curtis Enis, Charles Rogers, Tony Mandrich, and many, […]
I have never fully understood how polarizing Kirk Cousins is to the Minnesota Vikings fan base. When he came in I know some people were so married to Case Keenum because of the Minneapolis Miracle that they felt that he was betrayed by management. It was a great moment and story, but where is Keenum […]
The shelf life of a professional athlete is not very long on average. For every Tom Brady there are several more Dimitrius Underwoods. The job status of a head coach can be even shorter. Sometimes a head coach gets his first shot at being the man in charge when he’s pretty long in the tooth […]
Winning your final game of the season is always important to the players on the field. Whether it’s just for pride or to put some plays on tape for next year they don’t care how it affects the team’s draft pick. As a fan that is also something we struggle to watch: we want our […]
There wasn’t much chance that the Vikings would win tonight’s game against the Green Bay Packers. Adam Thielen was put on injured reserve, Kirk Cousins was out after testing for Covid, and Michael Pearce was out due to illness as was Cam Dantzler. That goes without mentioning that the Vikings just haven’t played well this […]
Well, this about does it for the Vikings this year and maybe head coach Mike Zimmer. The Vikings had a chance to win today and keep their playoff hopes alive. The Rams were not playing great and some of their play calling choices were questionable at times while Justin Jefferson broke the record for most […]
Whenever the Vikings and Bears play they are always tough meetings. At the beginning of the TV broadcast and a few times during the game they show old footage of the historic battles of the Purple People Eaters and the Monsters Of The Midway with cold breath and brutal hits and tackles. It looks like […]
Coming into this game I was sitting on the fence on two points: would the Vikings win, and would I want them to win? The way the season has gone I fully expected another loss by my beloved Vikings. I saw another closely played game with the Vikings running the ball well and passes being […]
Well, it was bound to happen to somebody. It’s difficult to win the Super Bowl and it’s just as difficult to go winless in a season. It has happened to Detroit before and it looked like they might be on that path again in the first season of 17 games. You just don’t want it […]
