Hey, if the Vikings are going to poach a star QB from a floundering franchise, why stop at Baker?
It's becoming clearer each day that J.J. McCarthy is not going to be the starting QB in 2026. The Vikings are going to go big game hunting this offseason with Joe Burrow's name already surfacing. Another name the Vikings will be linked too... Buccaneers QB Baker Mayfield 👀

Do you see the play unfolding in front of us?
I'm a sucker for a good play, especially a good tragedy. There is nothing better than a battle between a protagonist and an antagonist unfolding on stage. Playing out before our eyes within the Vikings organization is a modern-day NFL drama, with J.J. McCarthy cast as the

Just shut Christian Darrisaw down at this point. Zero benefit sending him out there at this point in a lost Vikings season.
Every player heals differently, but Christian Darrisaw is now 414 days past his ACL/MCL injury. Kevin O'Connell on if he ever expected to still be managing his recovery at this point:

Maybe breaks need pumped on Dallas Turner? 👀 @alec_lewis talks Turner and how his "tape does not pop as much as the narrative has been on social media". Lewis also notes that a lot of his success is coming against TEs or backup LTs. "There aren't a ton of young players for me

@TPPSkol People need to start realizing this is a strong potential so they aren’t majorly surprised or upset when a big change occurs next year. I’ve been in the same boat thought wise. Not sure who we’ll have, but I’m nearly 💯 certain it will not be JJm.

There’s a growing possibility that a former first overall pick to a team in the state of Ohio could be a Viking in 2026

To be honest, the is a good argument to be made that a move of this caliber having JJMC as their QB, could be what they need. The Bengals would investing heavily into their needs with significant draft capital and adding a Turner/Greenard to the defense would be big. Dead cap
Fair to wonder what type of chain reaction this would set off in the @Bengals organization. Would Chase and Higgins be next?

What Burrow said yesterday wasn’t an accident, but intentional. Who knows what’s been said behind closed doors in Cincinnati, but he felt the need to say that for those outside the building to hear.
Joe Burrows’ comments Wednesday got the attention of people across the league. A look at his comments and the Week 15 storylines with @tyschmit: 🎧 https://t.co/HwWrL6tYwr

Cincinnati deserves all the Burrow to Minnesota talk for the Jets to Bengals slander.
@TPPSkol IF it did happen Vikings easily make the most sense. I would never get my hopes up for that though.

Biggest issue with these 3 teams? They're all in the AFC. Why would the Bengals want to trade Burrow in the conference? 5 years and no playoff wins for a GM/HC is not good, 6 is worse. Maybe we'll see the Vikings do something crazy to save their jobs. https://t.co/tv4jyWRbRq

Alec gave a good analysis of the Addison situation in this one. One thing I'll add to think about, the 5th year for Addison will be around 17.5M based on current projections. Jameson Williams basically had his 5th year paid as a signing bonus, vet mins as the base salary, and

It’s so obvious Kevin O’Connell hates the ‘Nine’ bit 🤣
Yesterday, I clipped KOC + Paul Allen discussing 'Nine' this week on "X's and O's" -- and just realized I forgot to post it on this app... But now that the topic is a couple days old, I can't help but wonder what JJ McCarthy was thinking when he saw this conversation. 🤔 OG
