First legit game without Kirk Cousins in almost 6 years. For the remainder of the 2023 season our Minnesota Vikings will be exploring what life is like without a consistent quarterback. Something we didn't truly know from 2005 - 2017 and now something we have forgotten over the last 6 years. A silver lining for sure with Kirk going down is getting a taste for what life will be like with experimenting. Sunday will be the first test.

What should have been an incredibly exciting two score win on the road vs NFC North Rival, the Green Bay Packers has turned into anything but at Vikings lose starting, and MVP caliber Quarterback, Kirk Cousins to a season ending Achilles injury. Lots of ? continue for the Vikings finishing out week 8.

Hoping and believing the vikings can keep the wins coming and continue to increase our chances at making the playoffs, and dare I even say, winning the NFC North? It is not out of question, yet. Give a listen to this pre-game episode as Minnesota crosses the border and plays rival packers for the first time this year. SKOL.

The best game the Vikings have played all season comes against the best team they played all season. Never trailing, the Vikings beat the San Francisco 49ers 22-17 at home thanks to Kirk's precision, Jordan Addison breakout game, the offensive line giving up ZERO sacks, and the defensive holding CMC to essentially nothing on the ground. Season is not done yet, SKOL.

7 pt underdogs at home, Minnesota Vikings host the 5-1 San Francisco 49ers on Monday Night Football. Kirk is 0-8 vs football teams that are not the Chicago Bears on Monday Night Football. San Fran is looking to not lose 2 straight games since early 2022, whereas the Vikings are looking to not start 0-4 at home for the first time in Franchise history. We will see what Monday brings.

A win that borderline felt like a loss. A single offensive touchdown verse one of the worst defenses in the NFL and yet ANOTHER one score win for our Minnesota Vikings did not distill the confidence this team could make any kind of run that we are desperately looking for. Still a win at the end of the day, but man was it an ugly one.

Battle of the two worst NFC North teams has conflicting opinions for Meet At The Quarterback hosts. Some believe we should just call it a year and keep losing to get a top draft pick and our future QB. Others are not 100% sold this season is a wash given the continued turnovers and one score losses. Opinions might shift in about a month depending what route this weird Vikings team takes. SKOL.

Worst start to KOC young coaching career and now Justin Jefferson might miss significant time with a hamstring injury. There still are some things to be optimistic about and you will have to listen to find out.

A month into the season and our Vikings sit at 1-3 with too many failed opportunities and mistakes and now host the reigning super bowl champions, Kansas City Chiefs. Season could have a very different narrative with a win on Sunday and like always we will be rooting for that to be the case.

An ugly offensive game was enough as the defense allowed ZERO touchdowns to secure a one score win vs a terrible Panthers team. There is still significant work that needs to be done and we have an uphill battle to climb until we are a belivable team, however a win is a win and it certainly feels good to get that first one of 2023. SKOL.
Oct 02, 2023•32 min•Season 3Ep. 8
Even our optimism might struggle if our Vikings lose to the winless Carolina Panthers and start our season 0-4. If our offense can put the ball in the endzone (seems like an obvious statement) this team will be tough to beat. JJets is not writing off this season, so neither should YOU! Skol baby.

Undoubtedly one of the more embarrassing losses in recent memory, from the perspective of the Chargers essentially gave the Vikings a good opportunity to win and the Vikings said "no thanks". Season is far from over but this team has to become better, cleaner, and stop allowing dumb mental errors and costly turnovers ruin their chances to win. Still SKOL!
Sep 26, 2023•47 min•Season 3Ep. 6
An early preview for our Vikings week 3 matchup vs the LA Chargers in Minnesota. Offense needs to be clicking to take advantage of this poor Chargers defense. Hope for and expect lots of points for our Vikings first win of the 2023 season. SKOL

3 first half turnovers, 2 backup offensive linemen and 250+ rushing yards allowed on defense are terrible ways to try and win a football game against a very good football team. And yet you lost by one score. This team was weird last year and they continue to be weird this year with playing bad football but still having opportunities to win. Tough start to the 2023 season but far from over especially with everyone in the NFC North losing on Sunday.

We talk about what we must do to secure our first win of 2023. Skol Vikings!

Vikings add to their offensive weapons by drafting USC, wide receiver Jordan Addison with the 23rd overall pick. Addison was the 4th straight wide receiver selected in the 1st round. An interesting similarity to Justin Jefferson in 2020 NFL draft, as he was the 4th wide receiver selected at 22. Lets hope Addison can bring the same level of talent that we have seen from JJ thus far.
