  • Right?

    The one host really needs remedial media training. Saying or asking “right” after EVERY SINGLE COMMENT is literally the most annoying thing a listener can hear. I’m one and out. Be better.

  • host needs to leave

    Love this podcast. Matt and Nick are the best in depth viking podcasters out there, but the host is awful. constantly cutting them off and needs to either leave or stop talking. matt and nick need to make their own pod bc the host is borderline disrespectful

  • Best Vikings Podcast Yet

    Been listening to lots of other Vikings podcasts for years now. There is no other podcast that provides even close to the same level of in-depth analysis about the team or the players. Matt and Nick somehow manage to bring useful data/info and excitement to their discussions while leaving behind the purple colored glasses and the “Vikings will always lose the big games” attitude. They’re legitimately great.

  • Love the Xs & Os

    Nick and Matt are phenomenal — the Xs & Os are so good and accessible for the common man to understand. I don’t know of another Vikings podcast that provides this great analysis. I’d really love it if the host, though, would stop interrupting. It’s sometimes hard to listen to a full episode because he’s continually cutting them off when they’re trying to say something

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Episode 109 - Vikings Needs and Free Agency Preview
Q: What do you think about the Darnold, McCarthy situation?
The most prudent action seems to be letting Sam Darnold walk or potentially tagging him and trading him, ensuring any contract negotiation doesn't impede their ability to start JG McCarthy.
Episode 91 - 2024 Draft QB Deep Dive with Luke Braun
Q: Kind of want to ask about the degree of failure a little bit here because we're Vikings fans.
For sure. Yeah. This is and and you just hear it will hear it over and over and over again.
Episode 91 - 2024 Draft QB Deep Dive with Luke Braun
Q: So I guess, or you try to chill him out and you try to be like, you need to be a professional quarterback?
That's the challenge. So you're one overall with your first overall pick tying your franchise now to the ability of your QB coach to get that responsibly reined in without making him scared to run without shattering his confidence.
Episode 93 - JJ McCarthy Deep Dive
Q: Do you think JJ McCarthy starts as a rookie?
It wouldn't shock me if he's starting League 1, to be honest with you. It depends on his mental processing and footwork improvements.
