sadly, I feel we are on the precipice of this kind of move.

we thought we were entering a window and only needed a QB, blew our cap on cousins for half a decade, part way through it occurred to ownership that maybe an offensive minded HC might be useful to make that work, but then its occurs to the powers that be that maybe its not just a quality QB, but a competent OL and Defense would be helpful as well, so in order to make that work we finally dump the QB, focus on a the OL and D, but also put a serious effort into that quality QB that allows us to pay for the other nice things in capped football life ( after all, we arent Alabama) only to get bitten by the football Gods, but instead of paying our penance, we decide to smite the football Gods and think we are smart and pivot once again from the game plan.... perhaps its time for this franchise and fanbase to humble ourselves to those Gods and really and truly hand this thing over to fate and their wishes. tear down the walls of the Vikings Babylon and just let AI run our drafts and FA moves.

being a Vikings fan makes me understand the concept of mercy killings.

Why isn't Chuck Foreman in the Hall of Fame?

I mean, there is a WR available in this draft with legit 4.2 speed and suspect hands.

The first 57 years of fandom are the most difficult.

Wow the TD disparity is kind of shocking to see side by side.

43 to 25 in the first three years alone. Jefferson is exceptional. Moss is one of a few players I’ve seen in the NFL who transcend the league. Taylor, Hannah, White, Brown, Allen and a few others were in a league of their own.
