Whatever it takes to lose. Making the playoffs is a long shot at best. Even if they make the playoffs, they won’t go far. It’s better to lose today and get a better draft pick.
Vikings might as well keep chucking long passes as much as they can, that's what DET is giving up currently. Anything with LBs in front of them gets repeatedly crushed.
The Vikes‘ busts with top CB picks will haunt them for years.
At least the long balls to Addison and JJ have been fun.
The defense has really regressed the last few games. That's probably a talent issue though. would like to see what Flores could do with a serviceable secondary
Let the offseason begin, and buckle up… it will be a wild one
I’m most interested in seeing what the Vikes think about Penix or McCarthy. Is either their guy in round one? And, if they do take one of them, what does it mean for Cousins.
My hope is draft someone like those two and let them sit under Kirk for a year or two. Kirk has a lot of knowledge he could provide
That would be ideal if Kirk’s ask is reasonable. We’ll see what the Vikes do with the 11th pick.
Why do the Vikings always play in Seattle? When was the last time Seattle visited Minnesota? The Walsh kick?
Side note…. Purdy, Montgomery, and Hall will be in Minneapolis
Wouldn't Seattle have been in MPLS in 2021? They should host every team within their conference every 6 years at most I think with how the schedules work out.
You are correct. Seattle played at Minnesota in 2021. Minnesota played at Seattle in 2020, 2019, 2018. It was odd to play in Seattle three consecutive seasons, which probably still resonates with me that it seems they always play in Seattle
It’s how schedules line up. When it was 16 games you played each division team twice (6 games). Then You played one whole division in each of the AFC and NFC (8 games). Then you played the team that finished in the same spot of their division in the two remaining divisions in your conference (2 games).
Yep. But it’s not common to face the same team from outside your division on the road for three consecutive seasons.
Mock draft at PFF dated today had the Vikings taking Bo Nix of Oregon in Round One, fifth QB selected. Michael Penix was already gone, taken by the Falcons. The mock draft people don’t know anything, but it’s a fun discussion point.
