The long wait is over!

What is the weakest position group on the Vikings?

It has to be Quarterback right now right? I mean, JJ simply has not played yet. Next I think is either Safety or Cornerback. What trades or signings can the team still make? I think after June 1st is when it is most realistic due to cap constraints. Any team needing cap help has to wait until June 1st before making a deal. This would include Jalen Ramsey for example.

All things considered, that is

There are a lot of questions surrounding Minnesota Vikings quarterback J.J. McCarthy as he prepares to take the helm in 2025 after missing his entire rookie season. While one might expect McCarthy not to rank too highly among the 32 starting quarterbacks around the NFL, one outlet has him in a place that, all things considered, is a bit of a surprise.

Pro Football Focus has racked and stacked the NFL’s starting quarterbacks and has placed young McCarthy at #21 out of 32. While that may not sound like a terribly impressive ranking, it’s not...

Whether we like it or not

If you’ve spent any time on social media over the past couple of weeks, you’ve no doubt seen a significant number of “AI Baby” videos on various platforms. For those of you who have not, what these videos do is use AI to generate baby avatars. . .I guess, for lack of a better term. . .who then give speeches or other performances with the adult audio behind them.

If you’re a bit confused by that description, allow me to show you an example, as this trend has now officially reached our Minnesota Vikings...

Most fans cant wait to see the hopeful QBOTF play

What do you think JJ McCarthy’s stats will be this year? I expect the Vikings to run better but not necessarily more. Maybe a little more because JJ will just be getting his first snaps.

Bo Bix completed 376 out of 567 passes (66.3%) for 3775 yards with 29 TDs and 12 INTs. He ran 92 times for 430 yards and 4 TDs.

Drake Maye completed 225 out of 338 passes (66.6%) for 2276 yards with 15 TDs and 10 INTs. He ran 54 times for 421 yards...

Josh Metellus has led the Vikings in tackles each of the past two seasons, but he may still be an underappreciated player in Minnesota.

Vikings do-it-all defender Josh Metellus is likely a household name around these parts, but outside of the state of Minnesota, there still seems to be some hesitancy to hold him in a higher regard amongst the league’s best defenders.

Take this recent piece from NFL.com where analyst Tom Blair picks one player from each of the 32 franchises that he considers to be underappreciated. For the Vikings, Blair picked the 27-year old Metellus who is now...

Congratulations to the happy couple!

Before the new starting quarterback of the Minnesota Vikings takes over long-term ownership of the NFC North, he’s going to be looking at a couple of even larger commitments off the field.

J.J. McCarthy and his fiancée, Katya Kuropas, took to Instagram earlier this week to announce that they are expecting their first child, a son who is due in September.

McCarthy and Kuropas have been together since high school and got engaged in January of 2024. The Vikings drafted McCarthy with the 10th overall pick in the 2024 NFL Draft a few months after...

The old heads prevailed!

The NFL owners concluded their meetings and the traditionalists won the playoff seeding proposal. It was voted down. Not that big a deal since really bad divisions does not happen too often right? Hard to get owners to give up a home playoff game and the revenue that comes from that game.

8 Takeaways from NFL Owners Meeting: Push Play Survives; No Changes for Playoff Seeding

3. Playoff seeding procedures stay put

Wilf told Allen he appreciated and respected the Lions introducing the proposal but said his family members are “traditionalists on that front.”

The purple stay out of the crosshairs

The National Football League has made its decision on which teams will be featured in this year’s installments of the Hard Knocks television series, and our Minnesota Vikings have dodged the bullet once again.

The league has announced that the Buffalo Bills will be featured on the preseason version of the long-running series, while the newer in-season version will feature the NFC East. The Vikings do play all of the NFC East teams this season, but they will obviously not be the primary focus of the show.
