I am going to the Pack/Vikes game!! My first game at Green Bay!! Planned it 3 months ago, on my list to check off a stadium to go to and watch a Vikings game. I am so excited!!! VIkes fan in Las Vegas, grew up in MN -- First game for me was at the Met stadium!!!
Pops born and raised St Paul, MN. I'm pretty much a Cali kid my whole life. Dad told me in 98 we're Vikings fans and have been a Cali Vikings fan since! First Vikings game for me was in Oakland vs the Raiders. Going to the Vikings/Rams Thursday night game this year. Definitely wanna go see the Vikings again against the Raiders in LV, heard the new stadium is dope. Gl in Wisconsin, hope you have a great time and we get another Vikings win! SKOL!
As a Vikings fan, the big difference between Darnold and Cousins is this:Darnold doesn't need to have everything perfect in the pocket like Cousins does! Cousins cannot handle pressure like Darnold can, he has the ability to .improvise KO has done a nice job so far with Darnold and I see it only getting better. Don't forget, when Addison and Hockenson get healthy, watch out. A big shout out to Brian Flores defense, they are rocking and rolling ✌️
Thank you Jets for giving up on this kid and letting SF rebuild his confidence last year. His arm talent and pocket movement are worthy of the kid they drafted #3 overall. This is down right exciting watching Sam regain his form. His confidence level must be going through the roof each game. He comes off so humble which will be why he will be loved in MN. I am not sure I want to see him leave now after this season. It's a good problem to have!
Apparently, Carolina and San Fran didn't love him. No other QB needing team signed him either. I'm happy for Vikings fans he is playing well. But for how long?
@@daleboylen6427 until he gets hurt but not even entertaining all that he navigates the pocket well & the coaching gives him solutions he can adapt to his style
Great content today and everyday appreciate you guys. I am 61 years old and have scar tissue from this team for over 50 years. This is the best vikings team i have seen in a long time. well coached, great culture
Rivalry aside, that will really feel like some BS if Green Bay fans boo Aaron Jones. He gave them great RB play for years and even took payouts at the end.
Can we all admit it’s been so much fun not having the toxic Kirk Crusaders in the room. It was the biggest cult following I have seen in 45 years following this team.
I hear his management or agent paid people to hype him up and keep him in the line light, like paid promotions on social media… I believe it. Once he was gone, most of the Kirk Crusaders dwindled away or disappeared. I was shocked when we signed Kirk Cousins, then I didn’t like him, then I accepted him, then I cheered for him, then I was sad he left… but I never was sold he could win a big game or take us into the playoffs. Sam Darnold and JJ McCarthy was the light at the end of the tunnel, and man I’m I happy our team can succeed with them.
@@wilhoroshak6253 I believe what you are saying. I wonder if the Falcons will experience some of this Kirk fandom. So far every game they have been in has been close which is a Cousins trade mark. Kind of ironic as soon Kirk leaves we are beating teams by a good margin and not nail biters. We were told by these fanatics we would never win without Cousins. I beg to differ hahaha.
Side note: 4th & inches on the 10 with 50 seconds and you take the ball out of the hands of your $180 million quarterback. What are they paying him for?
I will say that I was not happy with his first draft. He missed badly on that draft. But after having the courage to let Kirk go and this draft and better yet helping the defense and offense this year tells me he needs to be extended along with KOC and if we can possibly keep Flo it would be great.
This is a complete team due to ownership/ management (Kwesi) and O/D coaching (KOC, BFlo) Signed great players in free agency, drafted great players (RIP Khyree Jackson) and replaced the cornerstones that left in the offseason; Cousins, Hunter, Cine, Mattison, Davenport, Hicks, Wonnum, Schlottmann, Tonga, Dye and Joseph. Not only do the Vikings have a great future, they have a current 3-0 team that looks to lead the NFC North and compete with top teams in the league. Sam Darnold is HIM, showing why he was drafted 3rd overall. The Panthers, Jets and 49ers didn’t give him a fair chance, he had no help.
Thank you for covering this topic Mackey. Take your victory lap. You deserve it. No player is bigger than the team. Especially not mr gravitational pull to .500.
This 2024 vikings team reminds me of another 2017 team that played in the NFC championship. The Philadelphia Eagles. Monster defense that rotates players to stay fresh, a great running game, and a QB in Darnold that can play the Wentz/Foles role just fine.
NIL ruined college football. We had season tix for many years, but stopped them a couple of seasons ago when I realized we just can't compete in the NIL era. When they lost Bucky Irving due to NIL I was like its over. Its happening to Gopher basketball too. You find a diamond in the rough. They have a breakout season and then go to highest bidder. I don't blame the kids, but its terrible for fans. Phil is right. You have to realize that maybe once every 5 or 10 years the Gophers will make a run. Doesn't matter who the coach is. Its the reality.
Okay? And they were still suspect on defense. They set records on offense. Literally out scored their problem. Unfortunately they got to the playoffs and couldn’t outscore that issue anymore against a 14-2 Atlanta team. Anyone who watched that team for more than 5 minutes knew the defense wasn’t good.
@richardtherichard26 You are wrong, that defense was actually good. They allowed single digits 4 times that season. In four other games, the other team scored less than 20. There were a number of defensive injuries in the NFC championship game
I remember 98 very well the defense was top 15-20 and the falcons came out and punched us in the mouth on that first drive it was like watching a leaky faucet ready to burst
I think Dex is saying if you only consider the first 3 games. Pretend you don't know they go 15-1. I would say 2009 was probably more exciting, because we were expecting Favre to take us to the super bowl when the season started. Everyone was watching every min with that in mind from game 1.
True injuries cost the 98 team John Randle knee suffered against Arizona and during Atlanta game our LB out and OL RG Dixon out after 2nd Qtr offense missed him in running game 2nd half
When Bud had his best teams, he had very good assistant coaches. Denny Green's best teams had a great staff. Now we see a team that is being run by excellent Coordinators. I also see KOC becoming more of a head coach and not just the OC. This could be special and I will admit, I didn't see it coming.
We gave up Kirk's contract and a good player in Hunter for all those depth and free agents that is now working out for us. Greenard van gankiel and cashman are all great addition. And the pace van gankiel is going he should be considered as a first all pro. Plus plus the biggest thing about this coming up off season we will have even more cap space to sign more players.
Statement, I'd rather build a team off of chemistry and competency. Than $ and ability based on stats they didn't get by themselfs. Don't believe me, ask Dallas
I was born in 1980, Declan is right. 1998 is now 2nd to this season. Moss=Jefferson, but JJ has the best D the Vikings have ever had. Use your eyes boys, we were all offense in 1998. I've NEVER seen a vikings team look this complete and dominant on both sides of the ball. This is our BEST chance at a superbowl.
@@jamesscott3534 I don't remember getting excited when we went on defense that season. I wanted all Moss, flea flickers every play!!!! I'm just saying I've never seen a D look this good. Its absolutely crazy. I pray this never ends.
I’m prob the only one - but please more Gopher content. I need more sadness. Judd - the fact that you are giving up on the program tells me maybe I need to. But I always believed we could be more.
I don't know. I have to think Sam is in that convo. The fact the two best free agent signings happened at the same time, yes, please. Everyone knew that signing was good, though. We knew what he was bringing. We go through the season with Mullins, we could be 1-3 or 2-2, but the growth in Ty can't be understated. He's not just running. He's learning, and you can see it when he runs
We are seeing the proof on how a franchise is the determiner of the success of a high drafted QB. Are most of the perceived failures of drafted QB's REAL ? Sam is the high quality QB as originally perceived. I'm glad for Sam , he deserves the success he enjoys.
Watching the Falcons with Kirk at the helm against the Chiefs, I realized I was experiencing what the Vikings would be (this year) with Kirk at QB. Thankfully, we as Vikings fans no longer must suffer "the Kirk effect." SKOL.....🏈😎
My fear is the personnel brought in this year via free agency had little to do with our GM and everything to do with B Flo and KOC. I have no confidence long term in our GM. Flores will get a head coach gig next season and this is a copy cat league and you are seeing the new blueprint to confuse QB's at the line and everyone will be trying to run the same defense.
What happened to all the people that were CERTAIN that Sam Darnold would be the worst QB in the league, throwing more interceptions than touchdowns, losing by twenty points, a couple pick-sixes every game, scrambling for no reason...
Don't recall fear mongering. I DO recall, vividly, literally every NFL pundit saying this team would suck because of Sam Darnold. If you recall, even Vegas had them at 6.5 wins. The Vikings have played well over the first 3 games. I think you're forgetting there are 14 more to play. Hope you realize too Phil, that those Vikings "Fearmongers" as you call them have not gone away. When, not if, Darnold reverts to being Darnold, as his entire NFL resume has shown, those fearmongers will be back with a vengeance. I"ll leave you with this boys. Either the entirity of the NFL prediction world, including vegas were 100% wrong (ALL OF THEM) or the Vikes are playing wayyyyyyyyyyy above their skill level. If I were you, and especially Judd, i;d stop gloating. Judd is old enough to know this team, this franchise will break your heart every single time. Darren Nelson's dropped pass at the one. 4 Super bowl blow outs. 42-0 1998 record setting team. Kicker didn't miss a single kick all season. Missed against the Falcons. 27 yard chip shot field goal wide left in Seattle. I could go on and on..............couple years back, the Dolphins started 3-0. Finished 9-8. Vikings have a habit of doing that too. The egg on your face will feel more like a 3 egg omelette when they return to norm. Unless you can point me to anyone, ANY ONE who predicted the Vikes will win the Super Bowl this year. So far, they have avoided the turnovers that killed them last year. Ball bouncing their way. I've seen Sammy dimes look like the sammy down of old. It's a LONG season felllas. Save your gloating until thy actually prove something. Like a deep playoff run. Also, if Darnold truly was that talented, he would NOT be on team #4. he has shown he can play at a high level previously. Just not for 17 games. In fact, he's never played a full 17 games. Time will tell. I've been on this teams bandwagon a plethora of times. Every time they threw me under the damn thing.
Its great not having Kirk. If Kirk plays the Texans, we almost lose that game, or almost win. Its the Kirk way. He plays at his competition, no matter what. Hope the Vikes can continue playing at this high level!!😁
1975 vikings were the most confident I had ever been they went to the superbowl in 73 and 74 they went 10 and 0 lost game 11 31 to 30 and went 12 and 2 then we all remember the original hail mary and the loss 17 14 to dallas I believe that was the best vikings football team I've ever seen. The next year they went back to the superbowl 3 out of 4 years back then we expected to go and win the superbowl every year anything eles was a failure
Got a feeling 95% of the fanbase doesn’t understand what they’re looking at on a week to week to basis in the NFL. Beating a team 34-7 is meaningless outside of picking up the W. It doesn’t mean you’re elite. It doesn’t mean anything. The NFL is a week to week league and at the end of the year, you have about 6-8 teams who really figure it all out. Last year it was HOU, TB, GB, DET, SF, KC, BALT, and BUFF. The score of these games in Sept/Oct/Nov is irrelevant as it pertains to January football. All that matters is 1. Winning 2. Staying healthy 3. Getting better (Should be charging y’all for this )
If you’re able, it’s worth getting a house and paying extra on the mortgage to finish within 15 years and then the money you save is astronomical and you can use that house to pay for most of another house if you want to move.
Do we have to go over this again from the fearmongering stance....? First... Once Kirks Contract was mentioned 99% of people said, "See ya, not worth it." 2nd, You were asking for Levis, Trey Lance etc, so it's kind of a moot point when one is finally right. People expecting Darnold to be trash after what he had shown so far was a completely logical assumption. There is a reason many of the talking heads past players, coaches, etc had them at 5 or fewer wins, and sportsbooks had them at 6.5 because outside of very few people, everyone thought Darnold was cooked. Taking Victory laps now is wild when you have asked for every available qb up to the point to replace Kirk. Yes, eventually you are going to hit when KOC evaluates and finds a guy. Most people who supported Kirk also supported drafting a qb, and moving on and just wanted Kirk to be the vet he sat behind for a year (not for what Atlanta paid him, and outside of like 5 loud twitter users). Most Kirk fans were also ok with moving on from Kirk, but to not be hasty to go get the next Ponder, but to be smart about who you take, and to develop them. The entire time from anyone I talked with anyway was always draft a guy and sit him for a year behind Kirk (as a big Kirk fan i was in favor of this 2 years ago). Obviously not for what Atlanta paid him. Which has been the strategy of the Packers, Chiefs, Patriots with Brady (granted not a top pick), but let them sit and develop. The biggest issue each year that this was a topic is one side seemed to want to cut Kirk no matter what he's the problem etc etc etc. The other side wanted to keep Kirk, the issues are the defense, o-line etc. Both can be true. Kirks salary affected the rest of the team 100% acknowledged for a long time, Kirk also was a pocket qb, needed a good line, and our defense was trash... personnel sure, but Donatell more-so. But Kirk also gave you the best chance to win, and draft a qb to sit behind him then drop him off the books after a year of development. I also admit I was was clearly wrong as far as this year as it's working out with Darnold. However, that being said, almost NOONE including your show, would have put Darnold > Cousins on a 1 year deal prior to this year if it was at a discounted price (again which is what MOST Cousin's fans wanted). I said it on Twitter to you, and I will say it again. I will be the first to Admit I was wrong about Darnold, but don't act like some crystal ball holder and take endless victory laps when it's been said about nearly every available QB, because as great as KOC is, the QB still matters and Sam is doing great. If the choice was Jet's Darnold or Kirk at a discount, I was 100% taking Kirk, and 99% of people who were talking about keeping Kirk, was prior to the released contract that he got with the Falcons. Most wanted him at a discount on a 1-2 year to sit the rookie you draft and develop. Last year was proof that you can't just plug anyone in and have a good season, and I genuinely think the rotating qb's probably helped us once Kirk went down so teams couldn't game plan vs any of them.... . We got lucky with Dobbs legs a few games, until defenses finally realized he can't throw and stopped him from running. This year Mullens could have gotten you probably the 6-7 wins Darnold was projected just going out there slingling it throwing for 400 yards with 4td 4ints each week. That was the issue with Darnold off the rip is many people assumed, including those with way more football knowledge than myself (or you) that Darnold was a bust why pay someone $10mil if Mullens can get you to the same W/L. Clearly Darnold has proven this wrong, but the silly victory laps are getting old. Moving on from Kirk was never the issue, it was who is available. And to move on appropriately and get the right person in the building. KOC has done that and I am very happy he went and got someone he was able to see is better than the league and the world thinks he is and has proven most people wrong. But again the victory lap is just weird when you say it about every SINGLE available qb. You guys even talked about it with Dobbs last year along with the Cousin's hating world on Twitter, and anyone with eyes could see that was temporary as soon as a defense figured out to just contain him and make him beat you with his arm. Also it seems really odd the part that is most ignored is nearly every SINGLE Kirk fan outside of Spinosa who wasn't a Vikes fan but a Kirk fan, always prefaced their opinion with, "I will support whoever the Vikings QB is." For what it's worth I am actually a big fan of the show, enjoy 99% of the content. The weird victory laps and Cousins haters/crusaders nonsense on the show I think was over the top and actually split the fanbase more than it needed to, not to mention the weird jabs taken at him now are completely unnecessary and don't add anything to the conversation. I would argue like politics where most people are somewhere in the middle but media kind of leans into one side or the other, so to is it with Kirk Cousins and the Vikings. I think 95 % of Vikings fans thought Kirk was about a 10-15 top qb. His salary was too high, and the only differing opinion was how and when to move on from him. I think there was more than Kirk to Blame for most of those Zimmer years than Kirk. Does he get some of the blame? Of course, everyone on that team gets some. Once KOC took over... I think is when more "Kirk stans" were open to moving on, but doing it properly. But to keep leaning into this when it was really such a small amount of the fanbase that was truly a Kirk ride or die that actually wanted to pay him what Atl did has run it's course as that would be very few of the fan base. Just as I think it was very few who truly hated him. I am sure if you use this on feedback Friday it will be chopped up because it's so long, and only certain parts will get responded to because it would be hard to fit this all in (understandable), but I would guess whatever the rebuttal is I have touched on it here, and I am likely rambling though because I always do typing on my phone. Much harder for me to put my thoughts into words on a RUclips comment vs actually speaking. haha... I am being genuine, if you use any of this please don't read it in a spiteful/hateful way. It's not meant that way. Just simply saying yes the Darnold move was a good one, congrats on being right about moving on, while being potentially hit/miss about who and when to move on, maybe? Who knows. Truly apologies if any of this or my tweets replying to it come of as Snarky, but I just want to tune in and hear about the Vikes and news/updates, the predicitons, Judds practice notes trenches with Boone all the good stuff. The pettiness between the haters/stans can go away now as I just want to cheer on this obvious Superbowl contender with fellow fans. Just like across the nation we'd be better united and stop the fighting across the parties. Vikings Fandom would be way better off if we could cheer for this team as 1 unit and stop going at each other for past opinions from either side. Oh yeah... I almost forgot. I hope this finds you well. ;)
Also to be clear I paused this 2 minutes in to respond, because I am just tired of hearing it so if you already addressed some of this, again apologies. It's just seriously time to move on.
3 games ........... Don't count your chickens before they hatch !!!! I have seen wayyyyyy To many seasons crash to trash ,,,,,,,,,,,, I have suffered through 3 SB's that were crushing !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Actually 4 SBs. I lived and died as a fan through all 4. The worst was the first, double digit favorites over the Chiefs. Vikes led the NFL that year in both scoring and defense.
NEVER RENT!!! If you can afford to buy!! Also put money away to get the down payment. Even dumping money to fix stuff is increasing the value of the house. Renting is invest8ng in the owners investment, NOT YOURS,
I'm not sure what made Caleb Williams think he wouldn't need growth once he made it. Brady wasn't the goat right away when he was drafted in the 6th round. I know the childhood dream to be the greatest ever, but that comes with accepting that you're not and growth, not just a skill set. But he is a kid take it easy Mackey. It's ok to cry bro, Your dreams not dead, just harder than you thought
What happens if the Gophers give up 30 plus points against Michigan? I get the buyout being way too high but that's Coyles fault but if the Gophers get blown out which will probably happen are you still trying to defend Fleck? I get it, who else will be better? Nobody most likely but to shrug your shoulders and say he shouldn't be fired is ludicrous, if the Gophers win 3 or 4 games are you really still trying to defend to keep Fleck? I mean Northwestern won 8 games last year. And you're still wanting to defend Fleck? No. Definitely not.
The defense generally played well but the offense was stagnant. The Steelers Curtain shredded our offensive line. Bud gave the guys a full week off before the SB while the Steelers spent the whole two weeks practicing, scrimmaging and putting in the game plan.
Mackey's point is well taken, but its human nature. It is easier to say person QB is a bust than to admit that a fan rooting or media covering a team is a dumpster fire. Case in point. Justin Fields is 3 and 0 and the and the team he left is ( with a savior, mind you) is 1 and 2. The other case in point is GangGroan. Sam Darnold is playing MVP style football. Why couldnt he do it with the Jets. Its because the organization is the hemmeroid of the NFL and as such an organization looks for a quck fix so they purchase Preparation Aaron to mask the fact that GangGroan is still a hemmeroid.
Years and years of signing aged players to sell jerseys and make headlines… LeVeon Bell, Aaron Rodgers, Joe Flacco, Frank Gore, Demaryius Thomas, Matt Forte, Brandon Marshall, Micheal Vick, Ed Reed, Josh Cribbs, Santonio Holmes, Plaxico Burress, LaDanian Tomlinson, Brett Favre… The Jets have been a retirement home since early 2000’s (maybe one or two good years in there) if I was in New York, I’d be a Patriot fan to be frank.
When it comes to Sam Darnold, it wasn't fear it was hatin. Oh, he's trash, and the Vikings won't go anywhere with him. I thought he had a chance because he was drafted high for a reason and never had any talent around him. So it wasn't fear but hate on Darnold
Call Boone and Sirles… Ding! Self suck! I don’t know any Vikings fans who thought it was a good idea to sign Kurt to an extension this offseason. Coming from a Kirk Stan, there was ZERO reason to bring him back this year. You guys are trying to give yourself a tug…. I mean… pat on the back for the Vikings making the logical choice. When they didn’t re-sign Kurt, I was thrilled to be able to turn this show on again, I figured they would get sick of beating a dead horse…. I guess not. Kurt’s been gone for months and is still a daily “look we got it right” self suck…
@@jimquast8186 I really didn’t see any “WE NEEDED KURT”… There was the “Will Jefferson sign extension W/O Kurt”? Nonsense that the national media jabroni’s made up. That isn’t real Vikings fans…. That was also prior to drafting QB of the future…. Him coming off an Achilles asking for all that money made the decision for the Vikings. If people were saying that, they’re idiots who don’t know ball….
Good lord Declan smh , your 3-0 take is pointless when you compare it with 98/09 only to stipulate “Just the start” You are making a “point” for no other reason than…to make a point. It’s meaningless. You literally say as much. You take the 2 strongest teams over the last 30-40+ years, and argue the 2024 (3-0) start is more impressive. Only to stipulate you’re only talking about the “start” and that you are in no way shape or form suggesting the 2024 team is remotely close to 98/09. This is constant problem with the way this channel conducts business. It’s never the hosts adjusting to what’s happening, it’s always forcing the content into the set in stone segments. And arguing 2024 is the most impressive 3-0 start in the past 25 years only to backtrack and say “I’m not saying this team is better than 98/09.” Makes even discussing it all, COMPLETELY POINTLESS. come on, man. Y’all aren’t getting better. You aren’t. It’s the same segments. Y’all prepare more than anyone even knows. And I’m telling ya, the product isn’t good enough. It’s not. Simple as that.
Please never talk about the Gophers again. Your takes are horrendours. Don't act like the Gophers can't do better than Fleck. If Wisconsin, Iowa, and BLEEPING ILLINIOS, are able to find better head coaches than Fleck, then why cant Minnesota? If you're apathedic towards the Gophers thats fine, just say that and move on. You don't need to disparage an entire fan base because we want something more than Quicklane bowl victories and beating Iowa once a decade. I am not saying we'll ever be Ohio St, but I do believe that the Gophers have the potential to be a competitive program, just need the right coach to make it click.
Jesus can you go one damn show without saying how right you think you are about Cousins??? He's not longer here! It's reaching Taylor Swift level of repetitive and annoying. He was a good QB. Was expensive, and he's gone now. Everybody gets like It's like CONSTANTLY talking bad about your ex. Not a good look. Let's talk 2024 VIKINGS. Please move on.
Don’t get too excited /depressed over the first 4-5 games. Sure if you are 0-5 that is a pretty big hole. You guys are just setting yourself up for heartbreak.
98 and today is pretty comparable, 09 was the hype of Favre. I think this year is so exciting because we’re finally getting the rewards from signing Kwesi and KOC/ B Flo, the whole organization is built into this team and we went from last to first on defense, something the 98 team didn’t have.
Dex, don't take life or financial advice from 2 childless guys who have never amassed any type of net worth. Just hope that Trump wins so the economy and housing market start to improve, then when there is an improved housing market look to buy. You're throwing over 10000$ down the drain each month renting, you shouldn't have that much on house repairs.
Nope still here, biding our time...the more they win, the more delicious the fall will be. "Enjoy the season!" then make your therapy sessions after the NFC championship.

No what happened to the fire Kwesi . He had no clue because of his Wall Street background
I will say that I was not happy with his first draft. He missed badly on that draft. But after having the courage to let Kirk go and this draft and better yet helping the defense and offense this year tells me he needs to be extended along with KOC and if we can possibly keep Flo it would be great.
This is a complete team due to ownership/ management (Kwesi) and O/D coaching (KOC, BFlo)
Signed great players in free agency, drafted great players (RIP Khyree Jackson) and replaced the cornerstones that left in the offseason; Cousins, Hunter, Cine, Mattison, Davenport, Hicks, Wonnum, Schlottmann, Tonga, Dye and Joseph.
Not only do the Vikings have a great future, they have a current 3-0 team that looks to lead the NFC North and compete with top teams in the league.
Sam Darnold is HIM, showing why he was drafted 3rd overall. The Panthers, Jets and 49ers didn’t give him a fair chance, he had no help.
Thank you for covering this topic Mackey. Take your victory lap. You deserve it. No player is bigger than the team. Especially not mr gravitational pull to .500.
Low key, tough game this week in GB.
The biggest fearmongers are now the haters!
This 2024 vikings team reminds me of another 2017 team that played in the NFC championship. The Philadelphia Eagles. Monster defense that rotates players to stay fresh, a great running game, and a QB in Darnold that can play the Wentz/Foles role just fine.
@@edwardjoseoh good points
NIL ruined college football. We had season tix for many years, but stopped them a couple of seasons ago when I realized we just can't compete in the NIL era. When they lost Bucky Irving due to NIL I was like its over. Its happening to Gopher basketball too. You find a diamond in the rough. They have a breakout season and then go to highest bidder. I don't blame the kids, but its terrible for fans. Phil is right. You have to realize that maybe once every 5 or 10 years the Gophers will make a run. Doesn't matter who the coach is. Its the reality.
I'll pay Alex Boone/Jeremiah Sirles to coach the gophers.
@@thee_trig 👍 would be an upgrade over snake oil salesman Fleck
Dude that 98 team went 15-1
Okay? And they were still suspect on defense. They set records on offense. Literally out scored their problem. Unfortunately they got to the playoffs and couldn’t outscore that issue anymore against a 14-2 Atlanta team. Anyone who watched that team for more than 5 minutes knew the defense wasn’t good.
@richardtherichard26 You are wrong, that defense was actually good. They allowed single digits 4 times that season. In four other games, the other team scored less than 20. There were a number of defensive injuries in the NFC championship game
I remember 98 very well the defense was top 15-20 and the falcons came out and punched us in the mouth on that first drive it was like watching a leaky faucet ready to burst
I think Dex is saying if you only consider the first 3 games. Pretend you don't know they go 15-1. I would say 2009 was probably more exciting, because we were expecting Favre to take us to the super bowl when the season started. Everyone was watching every min with that in mind from game 1.
True injuries cost the 98 team John Randle knee suffered against Arizona and during Atlanta game our LB out and OL RG Dixon out after 2nd Qtr offense missed him in running game 2nd half
Here's one extra take off topic. The Falcon's defense isn't the reason they're losing games
When Bud had his best teams, he had very good assistant coaches. Denny Green's best teams had a great staff. Now we see a team that is being run by excellent Coordinators. I also see KOC becoming more of a head coach and not just the OC. This could be special and I will admit, I didn't see it coming.
Mackeys Kirk victory lap is killing me 😂 he’s so happy he’s not good for the falcons
And also we're finally paying bottom 5 money for top 5 Q.B play. Must be opposite year
We gave up Kirk's contract and a good player in Hunter for all those depth and free agents that is now working out for us. Greenard van gankiel and cashman are all great addition. And the pace van gankiel is going he should be considered as a first all pro. Plus plus the biggest thing about this coming up off season we will have even more cap space to sign more players.
I agree kid , this is definitely the Best 3-0 team . No doubt 👍💪👏
Statement, I'd rather build a team off of chemistry and competency. Than $ and ability based on stats they didn't get by themselfs. Don't believe me, ask Dallas
The Dak contract was highway robbery, but Jerry Jones can afford to be stupid, he just needs headlines.
@@wilhoroshak6253 i know, just thought the irony was sweet.
I was born in 1980, Declan is right. 1998 is now 2nd to this season. Moss=Jefferson, but JJ has the best D the Vikings have ever had. Use your eyes boys, we were all offense in 1998. I've NEVER seen a vikings team look this complete and dominant on both sides of the ball. This is our BEST chance at a superbowl.
@668771 we had the sixth ranked defense in 1998. There were some key defensive injuries in the NFC Championship
@@668771 in 8 of the 16 games, the opponent scored less than 20 points.
Our defense was d*** good
@@jamesscott3534 I don't remember getting excited when we went on defense that season. I wanted all Moss, flea flickers every play!!!! I'm just saying I've never seen a D look this good. Its absolutely crazy. I pray this never ends.
Great show gentleman 😊Thank you
I’m prob the only one - but please more Gopher content. I need more sadness. Judd - the fact that you are giving up on the program tells me maybe I need to. But I always believed we could be more.
I don't know. I have to think Sam is in that convo. The fact the two best free agent signings happened at the same time, yes, please. Everyone knew that signing was good, though. We knew what he was bringing. We go through the season with Mullins, we could be 1-3 or 2-2, but the growth in Ty can't be understated. He's not just running. He's learning, and you can see it when he runs
Our defense is scary good right now and its kind of crazy our offense is producing this much without Hock and Addison!
2016 did feel flukey. This is different
They set him up for failure Caleb had so much pressure man that’s difficult for any young man!
We are seeing the proof on how a franchise is the determiner of the success of a high drafted QB. Are most of the perceived failures of drafted QB's REAL ? Sam is the high quality QB as originally perceived. I'm glad for Sam , he deserves the success he enjoys.
Fleck isn't going anywhere soon, he just built a new house in Minnesota.
Watching the Falcons with Kirk at the helm against the Chiefs, I realized I was experiencing what the Vikings would be (this year) with Kirk at QB. Thankfully, we as Vikings fans no longer must suffer "the Kirk effect."
SKOL.....🏈😎
That 1 bathroom thing is major❗️
I mean, if ya think about it, Darnold was nice enough to pick the balance up on that tab
My fear is the personnel brought in this year via free agency had little to do with our GM and everything to do with B Flo and KOC. I have no confidence long term in our GM. Flores will get a head coach gig next season and this is a copy cat league and you are seeing the new blueprint to confuse QB's at the line and everyone will be trying to run the same defense.
What happened to all the people that were CERTAIN that Sam Darnold would be the worst QB in the league, throwing more interceptions than touchdowns, losing by twenty points, a couple pick-sixes every game, scrambling for no reason...
Hot tubs are great Declan, however they require a TON of maintenance. You need to attend to it daily brother.
And we were without Ivan Pace and Dallas Turner
Don't recall fear mongering. I DO recall, vividly, literally every NFL pundit saying this team would suck because of Sam Darnold.
If you recall, even Vegas had them at 6.5 wins.
The Vikings have played well over the first 3 games. I think you're forgetting there are 14 more to play.
Hope you realize too Phil, that those Vikings "Fearmongers" as you call them have not gone away.
When, not if, Darnold reverts to being Darnold, as his entire NFL resume has shown, those fearmongers will be back with a vengeance.
I"ll leave you with this boys. Either the entirity of the NFL prediction world, including vegas were 100% wrong (ALL OF THEM) or the Vikes are playing wayyyyyyyyyyy above their skill level.
If I were you, and especially Judd, i;d stop gloating. Judd is old enough to know this team, this franchise will break your heart every single time.
Darren Nelson's dropped pass at the one.
4 Super bowl blow outs.
42-0
1998 record setting team. Kicker didn't miss a single kick all season. Missed against the Falcons.
27 yard chip shot field goal wide left in Seattle.
I could go on and on..............couple years back, the Dolphins started 3-0. Finished 9-8.
Vikings have a habit of doing that too.
The egg on your face will feel more like a 3 egg omelette when they return to norm. Unless you can point me to anyone, ANY ONE who predicted the Vikes will win the Super Bowl this year. So far, they have avoided the turnovers that killed them last year. Ball bouncing their way. I've seen Sammy dimes look like the sammy down of old.
It's a LONG season felllas. Save your gloating until thy actually prove something. Like a deep playoff run. Also, if Darnold truly was that talented, he would NOT be on team #4.
he has shown he can play at a high level previously. Just not for 17 games. In fact, he's never played a full 17 games.
Time will tell.
I've been on this teams bandwagon a plethora of times. Every time they threw me under the damn thing.
Are the "fear mongers" being quiet or are they now standing on the "you can't stop talking about Kirk!" hill? Because that's ridiculous as well
Sam is better than Bradford. Bradford was Cousins 2.0 both statues
Bradfords body was falling apart, so he had a reason for being a statue.
Bradford had better arm yes both were are statues
Mackey is such a douche. This past off season... there were maybe 10 fans that wanted to keep Kirk. Why even bring that up???
Because Mackey is such a douche
Vikings never get respect!!! Just keep rolling boys!!!! SKOL
Its great not having Kirk. If Kirk plays the Texans, we almost lose that game, or almost win. Its the Kirk way. He plays at his competition, no matter what.
Hope the Vikes can continue playing at this high level!!😁
Who didn't see this coming?... "Lions DE Marcus Davenport (triceps) likely out for rest of season"
1975 vikings were the most confident I had ever been they went to the superbowl in 73 and 74 they went 10 and 0 lost game 11 31 to 30 and went 12 and 2 then we all remember the original hail mary and the loss 17 14 to dallas I believe that was the best vikings football team I've ever seen. The next year they went back to the superbowl 3 out of 4 years back then we expected to go and win the superbowl every year anything eles was a failure
Got a feeling 95% of the fanbase doesn’t understand what they’re looking at on a week to week to basis in the NFL.
Beating a team 34-7 is meaningless outside of picking up the W. It doesn’t mean you’re elite.
It doesn’t mean anything.
The NFL is a week to week league and at the end of the year, you have about 6-8 teams who really figure it all out.
Last year it was HOU, TB, GB, DET, SF, KC, BALT, and BUFF.
The score of these games in Sept/Oct/Nov is irrelevant as it pertains to January football.
All that matters is
1. Winning
2. Staying healthy
3. Getting better
(Should be charging y’all for this )
If you’re able, it’s worth getting a house and paying extra on the mortgage to finish within 15 years and then the money you save is astronomical and you can use that house to pay for most of another house if you want to move.
Do we have to go over this again from the fearmongering stance....? First... Once Kirks Contract was mentioned 99% of people said, "See ya, not worth it." 2nd, You were asking for Levis, Trey Lance etc, so it's kind of a moot point when one is finally right. People expecting Darnold to be trash after what he had shown so far was a completely logical assumption. There is a reason many of the talking heads past players, coaches, etc had them at 5 or fewer wins, and sportsbooks had them at 6.5 because outside of very few people, everyone thought Darnold was cooked. Taking Victory laps now is wild when you have asked for every available qb up to the point to replace Kirk. Yes, eventually you are going to hit when KOC evaluates and finds a guy. Most people who supported Kirk also supported drafting a qb, and moving on and just wanted Kirk to be the vet he sat behind for a year (not for what Atlanta paid him, and outside of like 5 loud twitter users). Most Kirk fans were also ok with moving on from Kirk, but to not be hasty to go get the next Ponder, but to be smart about who you take, and to develop them. The entire time from anyone I talked with anyway was always draft a guy and sit him for a year behind Kirk (as a big Kirk fan i was in favor of this 2 years ago). Obviously not for what Atlanta paid him. Which has been the strategy of the Packers, Chiefs, Patriots with Brady (granted not a top pick), but let them sit and develop. The biggest issue each year that this was a topic is one side seemed to want to cut Kirk no matter what he's the problem etc etc etc. The other side wanted to keep Kirk, the issues are the defense, o-line etc. Both can be true. Kirks salary affected the rest of the team 100% acknowledged for a long time, Kirk also was a pocket qb, needed a good line, and our defense was trash... personnel sure, but Donatell more-so. But Kirk also gave you the best chance to win, and draft a qb to sit behind him then drop him off the books after a year of development. I also admit I was was clearly wrong as far as this year as it's working out with Darnold. However, that being said, almost NOONE including your show, would have put Darnold > Cousins on a 1 year deal prior to this year if it was at a discounted price (again which is what MOST Cousin's fans wanted). I said it on Twitter to you, and I will say it again. I will be the first to Admit I was wrong about Darnold, but don't act like some crystal ball holder and take endless victory laps when it's been said about nearly every available QB, because as great as KOC is, the QB still matters and Sam is doing great. If the choice was Jet's Darnold or Kirk at a discount, I was 100% taking Kirk, and 99% of people who were talking about keeping Kirk, was prior to the released contract that he got with the Falcons. Most wanted him at a discount on a 1-2 year to sit the rookie you draft and develop. Last year was proof that you can't just plug anyone in and have a good season, and I genuinely think the rotating qb's probably helped us once Kirk went down so teams couldn't game plan vs any of them.... . We got lucky with Dobbs legs a few games, until defenses finally realized he can't throw and stopped him from running. This year Mullens could have gotten you probably the 6-7 wins Darnold was projected just going out there slingling it throwing for 400 yards with 4td 4ints each week. That was the issue with Darnold off the rip is many people assumed, including those with way more football knowledge than myself (or you) that Darnold was a bust why pay someone $10mil if Mullens can get you to the same W/L. Clearly Darnold has proven this wrong, but the silly victory laps are getting old. Moving on from Kirk was never the issue, it was who is available. And to move on appropriately and get the right person in the building. KOC has done that and I am very happy he went and got someone he was able to see is better than the league and the world thinks he is and has proven most people wrong. But again the victory lap is just weird when you say it about every SINGLE available qb. You guys even talked about it with Dobbs last year along with the Cousin's hating world on Twitter, and anyone with eyes could see that was temporary as soon as a defense figured out to just contain him and make him beat you with his arm. Also it seems really odd the part that is most ignored is nearly every SINGLE Kirk fan outside of Spinosa who wasn't a Vikes fan but a Kirk fan, always prefaced their opinion with, "I will support whoever the Vikings QB is."
For what it's worth I am actually a big fan of the show, enjoy 99% of the content. The weird victory laps and Cousins haters/crusaders nonsense on the show I think was over the top and actually split the fanbase more than it needed to, not to mention the weird jabs taken at him now are completely unnecessary and don't add anything to the conversation. I would argue like politics where most people are somewhere in the middle but media kind of leans into one side or the other, so to is it with Kirk Cousins and the Vikings. I think 95 % of Vikings fans thought Kirk was about a 10-15 top qb. His salary was too high, and the only differing opinion was how and when to move on from him. I think there was more than Kirk to Blame for most of those Zimmer years than Kirk. Does he get some of the blame? Of course, everyone on that team gets some. Once KOC took over... I think is when more "Kirk stans" were open to moving on, but doing it properly. But to keep leaning into this when it was really such a small amount of the fanbase that was truly a Kirk ride or die that actually wanted to pay him what Atl did has run it's course as that would be very few of the fan base. Just as I think it was very few who truly hated him.
I am sure if you use this on feedback Friday it will be chopped up because it's so long, and only certain parts will get responded to because it would be hard to fit this all in (understandable), but I would guess whatever the rebuttal is I have touched on it here, and I am likely rambling though because I always do typing on my phone. Much harder for me to put my thoughts into words on a RUclips comment vs actually speaking. haha... I am being genuine, if you use any of this please don't read it in a spiteful/hateful way. It's not meant that way. Just simply saying yes the Darnold move was a good one, congrats on being right about moving on, while being potentially hit/miss about who and when to move on, maybe? Who knows. Truly apologies if any of this or my tweets replying to it come of as Snarky, but I just want to tune in and hear about the Vikes and news/updates, the predicitons, Judds practice notes trenches with Boone all the good stuff. The pettiness between the haters/stans can go away now as I just want to cheer on this obvious Superbowl contender with fellow fans. Just like across the nation we'd be better united and stop the fighting across the parties. Vikings Fandom would be way better off if we could cheer for this team as 1 unit and stop going at each other for past opinions from either side. Oh yeah... I almost forgot. I hope this finds you well. ;)
Also to be clear I paused this 2 minutes in to respond, because I am just tired of hearing it so if you already addressed some of this, again apologies. It's just seriously time to move on.

Declan needs to ask when he looks at houses if anybody died there. they are supposed to tell you that. lol
The Vikings set an NFL scoring record in 98.
That's why I'll go to gopher hockey games at least they have more current history for national championships
Declan needs a big yard for a horse 🐎 lol 😅
Disagree with Phil. Buying a house is the number one way to build equity. RUclips helps fix most things.
NEVER RENT!!! If you can afford to buy!! Also put money away to get the down payment. Even dumping money to fix stuff is increasing the value of the house. Renting is invest8ng in the owners investment, NOT YOURS,
Chandler is the perfect SPELLBACK (football).
I'm not sure what made Caleb Williams think he wouldn't need growth once he made it. Brady wasn't the goat right away when he was drafted in the 6th round. I know the childhood dream to be the greatest ever, but that comes with accepting that you're not and growth, not just a skill set. But he is a kid take it easy Mackey. It's ok to cry bro, Your dreams not dead, just harder than you thought
Not sure what a fear mongerer is. As as a 68 year old Viking fan, my heart has has been crushed, my heart is patte…😀
What happens if the Gophers give up 30 plus points against Michigan? I get the buyout being way too high but that's Coyles fault but if the Gophers get blown out which will probably happen are you still trying to defend Fleck? I get it, who else will be better? Nobody most likely but to shrug your shoulders and say he shouldn't be fired is ludicrous, if the Gophers win 3 or 4 games are you really still trying to defend to keep Fleck? I mean Northwestern won 8 games last year. And you're still wanting to defend Fleck? No. Definitely not.
We haven't had a team like this since the Purple People Eaters. I've seen the Vikings in all 4 SuperBowls.
On Declan’s comments the 98 team way more 😂explosive HOWEVER the present defense is better MUCH better
Sandy Stevens to the Rose Bowl!😅
Stephens. The first African American quarterback to be named an All-American.
MVP candidate after 3 games, come on guys
They actually played well against the Steelers
The defense generally played well but the offense was stagnant. The Steelers Curtain shredded our offensive line. Bud gave the guys a full week off before the SB while the Steelers spent the whole two weeks practicing, scrimmaging and putting in the game plan.
Mackey's point is well taken, but its human nature. It is easier to say person QB is a bust than to admit that a fan rooting or media covering a team is a dumpster fire. Case in point. Justin Fields is 3 and 0 and the and the team he left is ( with a savior, mind you) is 1 and 2. The other case in point is GangGroan. Sam Darnold is playing MVP style football. Why couldnt he do it with the Jets. Its because the organization is the hemmeroid of the NFL and as such an organization looks for a quck fix so they purchase Preparation Aaron to mask the fact that GangGroan is still a hemmeroid.
Years and years of signing aged players to sell jerseys and make headlines…
LeVeon Bell, Aaron Rodgers, Joe Flacco, Frank Gore, Demaryius Thomas, Matt Forte, Brandon Marshall, Micheal Vick, Ed Reed, Josh Cribbs, Santonio Holmes, Plaxico Burress, LaDanian Tomlinson, Brett Favre…
The Jets have been a retirement home since early 2000’s (maybe one or two good years in there) if I was in New York, I’d be a Patriot fan to be frank.

When they didn’t re-sign Kurt, I was thrilled to be able to turn this show on again, I figured they would get sick of beating a dead horse…. I guess not. Kurt’s been gone for months and is still a daily “look we got it right” self suck…

Good lord Declan smh , your 3-0 take is pointless when you compare it with 98/09 only to stipulate
“Just the start”
You are making a “point” for no other reason than…to make a point.
It’s meaningless. You literally say as much. You take the 2 strongest teams over the last 30-40+ years, and argue the 2024 (3-0) start is more impressive.
Only to stipulate you’re only talking about the “start” and that you are in no way shape or form suggesting the 2024 team is remotely close to 98/09.
This is constant problem with the way this channel conducts business. It’s never the hosts adjusting to what’s happening, it’s always forcing the content into the set in stone segments.
And arguing 2024 is the most impressive 3-0 start in the past 25 years only to backtrack and say “I’m not saying this team is better than 98/09.”
Makes even discussing it all,
COMPLETELY POINTLESS.

What do you guys think is Sam Darnold’s trade value right now? I think we could get a first round pick and more for Sam Darnold.

Please never talk about the Gophers again. Your takes are horrendours. Don't act like the Gophers can't do better than Fleck. If Wisconsin, Iowa, and BLEEPING ILLINIOS, are able to find better head coaches than Fleck, then why cant Minnesota? If you're apathedic towards the Gophers thats fine, just say that and move on. You don't need to disparage an entire fan base because we want something more than Quicklane bowl victories and beating Iowa once a decade. I am not saying we'll ever be Ohio St, but I do believe that the Gophers have the potential to be a competitive program, just need the right coach to make it click.

Let’s not get crazy. We’re good, but, not more exciting than ‘98 or ‘09. We’ll see what happens.
98 and today is pretty comparable, 09 was the hype of Favre. I think this year is so exciting because we’re finally getting the rewards from signing Kwesi and KOC/ B Flo, the whole organization is built into this team and we went from last to first on defense, something the 98 team didn’t have.
