@DustBaker Pros:
Playing the Packers without Parsons (most likely), at Chicago early, mini bye before Lions
Cons
First two games being division games is not great, at Lambeau on shorter rest, another early bye

@TheRealForno The extreme McCarthy haters and lovers are some of the weirdest people on here I swear. Just no middle ground either way, might be recency bias but he has to be one of the most polarizing players this team has had in a long time
English
There is a real case to be made to start McCarthy, but this reads like a far-right-wing or far-left-wing blog yelling about taxes
English
I've seen a lot of things in this business, but this might take the cake: a website with insanely cherry-picked data dedicated to starting J.J. McCarthy startnine.win
English
@spittinchiclets Absolutely insane it wasn’t a major. Incredibly dirty and unnecessary
English
Manson gets a double minor for this buttend on McCarron 👀
English
@citchmook He had both his hands wrapped around his head and you’re saying McCarron wasn’t getting off of him? Are you blind or just that incredibly biased
English
McCarron laying on Manson and refuses to get off, Josh struggling to get up and in the mayhem he barely touches him and guy acts like he got shot. Refs doing everything they can to help Minnesota tie this series. It's a joke.
Absolutely ridiculous call.
English
@ibamboozIe Yes we’ve had more PKs than PPs because we dive all the time. Have fun watching your team in Cancun 🤡
English
@GinoHard_ Man might have studied under Fleury too much, sprawls all over the place
English
@LukaDickMe @vikesinsider Man we’re talking WR rooms, top 2 you *might* have a slight edge, full room we clear comfortably. Puca is a dawg though just need to keep that man off streams
English
Jefferson-Addison-Jennings is far and away the best WR room in the NFL and it isn't particularly close. There isn't even another team in the same stratosphere
English
@northsidewolvez Are there any GM candidate that would excite you? And the KOC offensive thing gets too much hate IMO, both years we’ve had a healthy QB under him we’ve been top 10 in PPG and YPG. Our WR trio plus improved QB play with a hopefully healthier O line should have you a little excited
English
I’ll just say it, nothing truly excites me about the Minnesota Vikings right now. From Murray being the QB to KOC to these GM candidates they’re interviewing. Only thing I’m looking forward to is what can Flores do with these defensive players he got to draft. That’s about it.
English
@Isaiah_1248 @vikesinsider Jefferson beats out Lamb but it’s not a huge gap. Pretty sizable gap between Pickens and Addison especially after Pickens season last year.
All about how much weight you put on WR3 bc Jennings vs Fluornoy is a pretty large. I’d take our trio but Lamb/Pickens are very good
English
@SkolGeneral @vikesinsider Lamb Pickens and flournoy are better tho man. Only cause lamb and Pickens are two Elite 1s
English
@28Rock @vikesinsider Fair enough haha haven’t watched Lemon a ton was more just going with rookie compared to a more proven guy but he does seem like he could be a stud from what I have seen
English
@SkolGeneral @vikesinsider That’s where I disagree… i’m an SC fan.
Loved Addison when he came out. Saw him play live. Wanted him in the draft when others said we didn’t need a WR…
Makai Lemon is much better!

@JasonHarmonNFL Anyone who isn’t saying let the best man win has some weird agenda. Let’s just raise the floor for QB play from last season and win some games
English
I have a lot of trust in Tom, so this could get very interesting. Kyler is a very obvious upgrade over what the QB room did last year, but if JJ wins the job it means he’s made the improvements necessary to earn it. Either way, it’s a much needed jump from last season. Let the best man win.
VikingzFanPage@vikingzfanpage
The Minnesota #Vikings will have a “true competition” at quarterback between Kyler Murray and JJ McCarthy, @TomPelissero mentioned via @RichEisenShow.
English
@verysadvikings Guessing this just means McCarthy will get first team reps as well (as he should) but 95% chance it’s Kyler week 1. Pelissero is very plugged in to the Vikings
English
@28Rock @vikesinsider I just don’t think they will ever play a snap together haha but yes if they do they’re second best. Still taking ours just because Lemon is a rookie / unknown guy but he does have a lot of potential
English
@SkolGeneral @vikesinsider The Eagles, as of now, have AJ Brown, DeVonta Smith, and rookie, Mekai Lemon. That trio is elite
English
@JasonHarmonNFL I think they wanted to keep him one more year but Kwesi and KOC didn’t see eye to eye on team building so before it got to Zimmer/Speilman level they chose KOC and gave him the reins for this year to build the team his way and right or wrong I think KOC is in a prove it year
English
Firing Kwesi made sense. Firing Kwesi in late January and not hiring a GM till May screams of disfunction.
VikingzFanPage@vikingzfanpage
Around the NFL, there is “a lot of intruige” about what the #Vikings will do at GM, @alec_lewis mentioned via @KFAN1003. The timeline of this whole process is one factor people have questioned, as well as utilizing a search firm to help them find the right hire.
English
@Vikeologist Would’ve preferred to start Wally tonight just on a short leash but hope Gus comes out with a chip on his shoulder
English
This is a bold move. Starting a goalie who hasn’t played in nearly 2 weeks against Colorado is risky
Michael Russo@RussoHockey
Filip Gustavsson starting tonight for #mnwild. Gametime decisions on lineup
English
@TPPSkol Vikings fan page wants the Vikings to lose games and let their division rival get into the playoffs to get a hypothetically easier schedule next season. Got it
English
Winning those games when we were 4-8 was fun!

@MnDreamin_3 Such a casual take. Would love for him to score more but to say he hasn’t been impactful, even last night, is insane. Bunch of people who look at the box score after the game and say he was bad
English
Twins fans pretending to be Wild knowers. Gross
Ted@tlschwerz
Kirill Kaprizov is making a lot of money to look lightyears worse than every other star thus far. It's jarring.
English
@Dust_Vikings Agreed, do everything good owners are supposed to do, the biggest complaint from everyone is “they don’t hire people who lead us to playoff success” if only they thought of that. Process is there, have hired 3 coaches with a winning record, just cannot get over the hump
English
I, for one, think we have great owners.
We always have a competitive roster, always flirting with the playoffs, etc. Also, the Grade A training facility and home stadium. Not many teams can say they have both or one or the other.
Is there room for improvement? Of course. Is the lack of playoff success an issue? Yes. But this stems more than just the owners.
I think Mark and Zygi are great.
English
@FewSteveweisers Hell yes, take care of business tonight and on to the next!
English
@SkolGeneral Couldn’t agree anymore brother let’s get this pig cooked tonight at the G spot #LetsGoWild
English
He’s gotta learn to play well without zucc sorry but he was almost non existent in games 2,3, and 4 I feel like maybe I’m wrong but just seemed different without zucc #MNWild #LetsGoWild #SkolWild
Alex Micheletti@AlexMicheletti
Kirill Kaprizov has the most points in the playoffs with 9, also leads the playoffs in plus minus with a +9 on the ice #mnwild
