4.7 out of 5 stars from 3.7k ratings
  • Thor is an idiot

    You brought a guy on who couldn’t have been more wrong about JJ and now I see him regurgitating right wing conspiracies about MN on social media?? Good choice. Not listen to any show thatDA is a part of anything

  • Not clean keep your kids away

    So this used to be a pretty decent podcast in terms of the Vikings, but recently I ran across an episode that was full of foul language, and kids were in the car. If I hadn’t known I wouldn’t have played the episode.

    I believe it’s marked as clean on the ratings from Apple? Disappointed.

  • Great content Foul mouths

    I like to listen to the perspective and insights of the O-line Committee. It’s unfortunate that they have to use the f-word so ridiculously much…makes it unlistenable.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Latest Minnesota Vikings news: Harrison Smith, Week 1 and more
Q: What does Harrison Smith's new contract mean for the Vikings this season?
It signals continued defensive leadership and a measured use of Smith, likely in a role that preserves his experience while leveraging the defense's improved schematics under Flores, with potential incentives linked to team success.
Kevin O'Connell's PERFORMANCE REVIEW; Minnesota Vikings hosting Kyle Van Noy
Q: What does it mean to call Kevin O'Connell a quarterback whisperer, and is that moniker still accurate?
The hosts suggest the label is now TBD, noting that while O'Connell may have helped quarterbacks in the past (Darnold, Cousins, Stafford), recent developments with Kyler Murray and the need for a run-first identity have clouded the certainty of that nickname.
Is Minnesota Vikings offense actively changing at training camp?
Q: What is the reason behind installing more pistol and mixed formations during camp?
The goal is to create multiple looks for defenses, exploit alignment mismatches, and prepare for different defensive checks and defenses, while also keeping the playbook adaptable to the personnel on hand.
Dumb Football Questions: Does Jalen Hurts deserve more RESPECT?; QB Tiers deep dive
Q: Is Jalen Hurts a top-10 quarterback this season based on the current tier rankings?
The panel suggests Hurts sits around the edge of tier two, mixing strong running with limited but improving passing, and notes that true top-5 status depends on advancing his arm game and adaptability to defenses.
Minnesota Vikings themes to watch at training camp
Q: When do you think we'll get a decision on who starts at quarterback and how will that affect camp pacing?
The panel expects a gradual progression toward first-team reps for Kyler with no immediate public announcement, and they anticipate closure by mid-August rather than immediately.
