Jake Browning threw a dime to Justin Jefferson for a big gain in a two-minute drill, then hit Irv Smith in the back corner of the end zone for a two-point conversion after a TD run. Now, all-time QB Jake Browning has 1:17 left to answer Jake Browning with another TD drive.

Good for Browning, one of our two smart QBs. When opportunity knocks you gotta answer. Take advantage of the absence of our two dummy QBs and make the most of those extra reps.

Can he run a two-minute offense?

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder

Overview

Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is a common, chronic, and long-lasting disorder in which a person has uncontrollable, reoccurring thoughts (obsessions) and/or behaviors (compulsions) that he or she feels the urge to repeat over and over.

You say that now, but when Cousins is coughing up games they should win you'll be saying the same thing.

Nobody appreciates your ad nauseum BS. No one thinks it's cute. Learn some new lines. It's embarrassing.

It's August 1. Viking fan amnesia is in full force.

Speaking of amnesia, I'm so old I remember when the OCD posts were about Adam Thielen. How come those stopped?

KJ Osborn was just so obscenely bad last year it’s tough for me to wrap my head around him playing any kind of roll on this team.

But hell I’m willing to learn if indeed he’s reborn.

He was the WORST return specialist I’ve ever seen on a Vikings team. He made Buster Rhymes look like the Human Joy stick.

That's a good way to put it.

Its still only training camp hyperbole at this point but I will be in shock if he contributes at WR ... I guess you can never know.

Its impossible to predict development sometimes. Especially on a team that intentionally holds its rookies back until they get the right 'seasoning'.

consider last year's rookies in regards to the 2020 ota's, training camp, and preseason....

perhaps osborn is better than he looked last season - we shall see....

There is a rather significant gap between how Osborn looked last season and how someone good enough to be occupying the 53rd spot on a roster looks. Personally, I think there is a better chance of spotting bigfoot riding the Loch Ness monster across Lake Minnetonka than Osborn looking like a real NFL receiver.

I didn't think much of him last year. But 2 orv3 camp highlights later I'm singing a different tune.. He can be a #2.

also, last year's osborn made the final 53 - we shouldn't think it's such a miraculous event....

Osborn made the final 53 by default. His minimal role was reduced as the year went on. Osborn was the appendix of the Vikings roster. Part of my overwhelming optimism on the Vikings this year is that he won't be able to make the roster.

He did.

How would he react if the Vikings lost a game because their starting quarterback or a star player was unavailable due to COVID-19 protocols?

"Probably won’t be happy we lost the game, first, and I probably won’t be happy we could’ve prevented this," Zimmer said. "Like I said, these guys, some of them just won’t do it. I shouldn’t say it, but some of the things they read is just, whew, out there."

"It’s their beliefs, so. I don’t know if it’s misinformation. It’s their belief, so whatever they’ve heard or read or been told. Not from — maybe they don’t believe what [NFL chief medical officer] Dr. [Allen] Sills and the NFL is telling them either, so."

There is a lot of really good stuff from Zim at the link.
