    I'm not asking for a guarantee, I just want a chance. I seriously don't want more hollow 10 win seasons where we know before the playoffs start that the Vikings don't actually have a shot at winning.
  2. nicksaviking
    Sure, but you'd have to find a QB later in the draft, and this franchise rarely drafts QBs let alone good ones later in the draft. If we wanted them to cut bait on Brosmer McCarthy this early, it was almost certainly going to have to be because the season was a laugher.
  3. nicksaviking
    Nope, I want them to remember their epic failures. There should be zero moral victories today. Or last week. Or this year at all.
  4. nicksaviking
    What has happened to this board today, isn't being bad good and what most of us have wanted? If these young QBs weren't embarrassing, they'd probably stick with them longer than they should. Hasn't most of the board been saying all year long that being bad is better than being average? Plus, Wentz surprisingly wasn't embarrassing. Also, KAM should be fired.

    I'm tired of this national narrative about not re-signing Darnold. These people are NOT Vikings fans, and they think the Vikings should be satisfied with winning games but they don't care at all if the Vikings ever win a Super Bowl. Screw them. Sam Darnold is not winning this club a Super Bowl, therefore do not commit to him long term. I know the last two games have been embarrassing, but that's good. Embarrassment spurs change. Four wins is way better than nine wins in the NFL.

    How does finding a QB that at minimum is as good as Carson Wentz get changed quickly? Whether it's the draft, free agency or trade, it would be really hard not to match that. The bar doesn't get a whole lot lower.
  7. nicksaviking
    Agree. In my book worse is better anyway. Seven wins for this club would be rock bottom. Any more than five wins is a terrible situation to be in.

    We've been hearing this all year, and I think it's overblown. Yeah, he's had a down year due to QB play, but that can change quickly. They JUST showed the graphic about Jefferson's yards per game per QBs for his career, and Carson Wentz, not Sam Darnold, was #2. In case we've forgotten, the Wentz era was with the Vikings here in 2025 and he was a backup QB that at most got a shrug from Vikings fans. Jefferson doesn't need a top end QB to thrive, and the team will almost certainly be looking for something with a Wentz-esque floor in 2026. Now I PERSONALLY require a top end QB, but if we're worried about Jefferson getting upset about his production, that's going to be an easy fix.
  9. nicksaviking
    OK boys, I'm calling it. Max Brosmer isn't getting into the HOF.
  10. nicksaviking
    That may be the end of the Aaron Jones era in Minnesota. He don’t look to be getting up.
  11. nicksaviking
    So many tipped passes, bad luck none of them are resulting in a pick. Cracking a barrel aged stout. Those tend to be good luck. Or at least make me care less.
  12. nicksaviking
    I get it, but if they run more than once every three plays, they'll go three and out every series. This team cannot run the ball behind this offensive line.
  13. nicksaviking
    For sure. But it seemed like all the negativity came from Brosmer starting. Which, yeah, ugh. My point only being the QB hasn't mattered for this team all year so swapping out QBs on this team is probably no more of a setback than swapping out any other position.
  14. nicksaviking
    Packers? Typo I presume, you meant Panthers.
  15. nicksaviking
    Overall with the ambiguous QB situation the Vikings are looking really bad, but I don't get all the gloom and doom about this game specifically because of Brosmer. I've vocally said if this team starts Brosmer they are in trouble from a PR perspective, and that Brosmer likely doesn't have the traits to be a starting QB in this league. But McCarthy is literally putting up all time poor numbers, so I don't get why THIS game is the one to skip or waive the white flag. If Brosmer actually plays worse than McCarthy, that means the Vikings have quite possibly played the worst two QBs in the history of the league back to back; those odds sound very unlikely.
  16. nicksaviking
    Four hours until we start getting scoops from “insiders” that some in the Vikings clubhouse wanted Brosmer starting over McCarthy since week 1. The scoop will be BS, but I’m expecting those reports all the same.

    The O-Line seems unable to stay healthy any year. I know it's football and every team deals with injuries, but it sure seems the Vikings have a disproportionate amount of lineman go out most years.
  19. nicksaviking
    Yeah, but all the articles are going to default to painting Seattle and Darnold in glorious light right now. Is there any scenario where Seattle personnel would say they don't believe in Darnold? And what else is the coach going to say when asked why the two bad big game losses didn't deter Seattle from signing him? I actually hope all goes well with Darnold and Seattle, it still doesn't make me regret taking a huge step back in an attempt to find a different long term QB.
  20. nicksaviking
    Sigh. I wish ALL the Twins could play against 13-year-olds. I'd put good money on them getting out of the first round of the playoffs.
  21. nicksaviking
    You think he'll trade his college buddy Chase for his college buddy Jefferson? I'd be completely on board. Vikings better hire a better O Line coach though.
  22. nicksaviking
    No way they are worse at their jobs now that it's a legal billion dollar industry. I'd guess it's somehow a way to just get more profit. Maybe they are trying to sucker in early bettors who can't help themselves, Or maybe they wanted to get some action on Seattle early because they knew it wouldn't be a hot bet when the spread go big? No clue, but I don't trust anything about this industry so I assume whatever is happening is only another scam to take more money.
  23. nicksaviking
    Ouch, three years older than originally thought? So he was 19 and lying about being 16? I can see why his offer from the Twins is so much less.
  24. nicksaviking
    For sure; I agree they are safe, if for no reason than the front office is going to want to try to prove they were right about those guys. Nothing against those two players, but I wish this team was in a better position to where they were not safe though. I don't think they'd be locks on the majority of rosters.
  25. nicksaviking
    All of these things point to KOC doing the quick release game plan which did work pretty well against Cleveland and Detroit. And while all accounts say Brosmer is a statue in the pocket and doesn't have NFL arm strength, quick reads and quick releases do seem to be his strength. If the Vikings run that game plan again, I think they'll keep it close. And I'm rarely an optimist.
