Kirk Cousins
If there is one constant in the NFL is that there will always be change. Players and coaches move from one team to another, or they retire from a successful or moderate career. There are two factors to watch in any team sport: individual success and team success. They are separate, but can affect one […]
We’ve come all the way back to start another season of wonder and worry with the Minnesota Vikings. it seems like just yesterday we were marveling at the team’s ability to make epic and historic comebacks even though their defense was abysmal at times. The playoff loss to the Giants at home still stings as […]
There is no position in all of sports that is harder than playing quarterback. None. It is the only position in sports where you have to know what every player knows and what they are up to on the field. They get too much credit for wins and they get too much blame for losses. […]
While it’s not as big as the NFL Draft or anywhere close to the Super Bowl in hype, the release of the NFL schedule is a big deal. Fans can start planning the games they want to attend, figure out their win/loss record, know when they should start trash talking their hated rivals, and plan […]
Even though the team lost in the playoffs to end a somewhat promising season Kirk Cousins had a great year on and off the field. Showing up shirtless in a video draped in chains from his teammates that went viral after a big win and leading the team to a record 8 come from behind […]

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 […]
