  • My first listen of the day

    Since I started following the Vikings 9 years ago this has been my go to podcast everyday.

    Luke is funny, factual and breaks everything down so well that Im “always learning something new”

    Squad show is a solid compliment to Luke’s daily shows.

    The newly added Vikings after dark has me in stitches, Areif (sorry for the bad spelling) along with Luke make it a must listen!

    Thank you guys! SKOL

    luke braun is unlikable, unenjoyable, and is a crybaby. I wish Locked On would make a change in its Vikings coverage.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Minnesota Vikings Training Camp Day 1 Recap!
Q: What can you go into about what makes a QB better or worse at play action?
Play action effectiveness depends on reading the defense quickly after turning away to fake, authentic mechanics, and the quarterback's ability to read downfield while selling the fake. Examples from Kirk Cousins and Jared Goff were cited to illustrate how quick reads and maintaining eyes downfield through the fake can dramatically affect play-action success.
Thank Goodness The Minnesota Vikings Have Kyler Murray
Q: Should the Vikings adopt the Norwegian rowing celebration from the World Cup in the same way that they have adopted the clapping from Iceland?
The host suggests it would be cool to adopt a new celebration but notes the team has already established a long-running tradition with the skull chant and mentions consideration of changing traditions.
Thank Goodness The Minnesota Vikings Have Kyler Murray
Q: Next question comes from Dirty Mike, and it's a long one. I have a question regarding your July 10th podcast about KOC's real thoughts on the JJ slash Murray competition.
The host discusses that there are multiple possible interpretations of the organization's plans, including that Murray could be a bridge and JJ could take over later, that the coaches may genuinely believe in keeping options open, or that they might pursue a different path depending on development and future circumstances.
AFTER DARK: The Minnesota Vikings Of The World Cup
Q: What are the three biggest starting job competitions heading into camp next month?
The quarterback battle involving Kyler Murray versus JJ McCarthy is the headline, with internal battles at safety (Metellus, J Ward, Theo Jackson, Jacoby Thomas) and several offensive/defensive line and special teams spots providing meaningful depth competition, though some are more realistic than others. The overall mood is that multiple roles will shake out in camp, with a few clear frontrunners but room for surprises, especially at the three or four other spots mentioned.
What If J.J. McCarthy Didn't Miss His Rookie Season?
Q: First question comes from Lamello and Addison's insurance agent, who asks, how do you see the Sam Darnold situation or how do you think the Sam Darnold situation plays last offseason had McCarthy not gotten injured in year one?
Luke discusses how McCarthy's rookie year was shaped by Darnold's start, suggesting that if McCarthy had not been injured, the dynamic around quarterback competition and the team's quarterback planning would have been different, potentially accelerating McCarthy's development and altering the roster decisions made after the season.
