    Love the content. Phil, Judd & Declan have become part of my daily routine. Love the OL Committee shows as well.

  • Boycott Betting Sponsors

    Lets normalize boycotting podcasts that take money from gambling entities which exploit addicts. Used to love Judd, Mackey and Declan but can’t support people who promote something that notoriously destroys lives. Shame on you guys, where is your moral compass?

  • Hockenson isn’t fetching a top 100 draft pick

    Love the show, but no team is trading a top 100 pick for Hockenson, he is contracted to be highest paid TE and he is washed up… He is getting cut

  • Thor needs to get a job

    Respectfully I love purple daily. The question is why should we listen to Thor talk. He seemingly missed on JJ McCarthy compared to every other quarterback in his draft class, and it seems like he constantly regurgitates whatever anyone else says on the show in a wordier way.

    PS if we could get some more O-line committee that would be great. They know ball. They are good at explaining the team dynamics. Maybe it’s time for a play-calling change at purple daily. Let’s swap out Thor for one of t... more

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Is Carson Wentz more likely to be the Minnesota Vikings backup QB?
Q: What is your percentage that JJ McCarthy is traded before week one?
The host suggests a high likelihood, with numbers fluctuating but leaning toward a trade before week one as teams look to maximize rookie contract value and roster flexibility.
OLC: Dumb Football Questions: Dumbest thing your NFL front office ever did?; Is Jerry Maguire believable?
Q: How accurate is the portrayal of agents and the NFL front office in Jerry Maguire?
The discussion agrees that while some elements are realistic, many aspects are Hollywoodized, and the real world involves more nuance, relationships, and strategic considerations than the movie depicts.
Minnesota Vikings future with or without Harrison Smith
Q: Doogie, what are you hearing about whether Harrison Smith will play this year?
The general sense is that Smith is staying in shape and there's a real possibility he returns, possibly mid-season, with the Vikings weighing a reduced role and the potential to mentor younger safeties like Jacoby Thomas.
TTP: Deep NFL Draft SLEEPER fits for Minnesota Vikings with Mike Renner!
Q: Mike, as our guest, I would like for you to kick us off. So why don't you give us the first day three Vikings sleeper?
Renner discusses a first-day-three sleeper, focusing on a bigger-bodied boundary receiver archetype and a pass-catching profile that could complement the Vikings' receiving corps, highlighting traits like length, straight-line speed, and the ability to win at multiple levels.
