quote: ORIGINAL: Phil Riewer I don't think this is the way: NFL Rumors @nflrums · 21h Four teams that are expected to check on Rams Jalen Ramsey availability. The Lions, Steelers, Vikings, and Raiders. LOL. Who writes this crap? But he does fill the injury-prone block: Ramsey played through AC joint sprains in both of his shoulders during the Rams' run to the Super Bowl in 2021. He had only his left shoulder surgically repaired last offseason, and he'll now do the same for his right shoulder heading into the 2023 season. OK sure, let's use our first and third picks then kick in some void years for a few players because his 2023 cap is ONLY $25 MILLION! And another $50 million for 2024-25. Actually, stop importing crap.

quote: ORIGINAL: ronhextall If you can acquire Lance for some late draft picks it seems like a low risk high reward type move. Only issue I see is his rookie deal has already been going for two years. Damn shame there still isn't NFL Europe, draft QBs and ship them off to see if there is anything there. Kurt Warner wasn't Kurt Warner until he seasoned himself in Arena League and NFL Europe. Done! We used our first and third rounders for Ramsey, and our second for Hock. The rest go to Lance!

LMAO NFL Rumors @LMAONFLRumors 1h The Vikings are prepared to 'substantially' beat all competing offers to sign Jalen Hurts and Antonio Brown. It is reported GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah is willing to turn over the deed to U.S. Bank Stadium and cede all territory of Minnesota above 47 degrees north to the city of Philadelphia.

Our most immediate need is defense at most all positions. Ol needs a couple inside guys as well.

Its not impossible to find a decent QB. Very difficult, yes. But its not lottery hard. It does take some luck ... and you have to keep addressing the position to improve your chances ... but you can't not try. KOC is probably itching to bring in some new blood that he has handpicked.

That doesn't cut it.

Bill Johanesen -> RE: General Vikes Talk (1/27/2023 7:29:31 AM)
NFL fans in the know will forever bash Minnesota for giving out the first-ever 100% guaranteed contract... mainly because it was given to Cousins! So why not the first 100% incentive-based contract: - $15 million for a playoff win - $30 million for two playoff wins - $45 million for three playoff wins

ronhextall -> RE: General Vikes Talk (1/27/2023 8:41:39 AM)
If Kwesi wants to impress me, he will need to bring in Lance or draft a QB for the future. Keep Cousins for 2023 and then insert QBOTF after that. Cousins age is soon to be his biggest fault. If Kwesi extends Cousins he isn't some new wave analytic genius. He is just a guy no different than most GM's.

Then you dont understand the distinction between playing well and playing well enough to win a game. Or the difference between regular season games and playoffs. Try giving him credit for his strengths but also recognizing the deficiencies. It doesn’t have to be one or the other. Or we could just talk about his career accomplishments but that would mask his overall good production We could do a helluva lot worse than Cousins. He can absolutely get you a playoff win. A playoff run? Very very unlikely. Too much rattle in him, not enough spontineity to overcome big game pressure.

The 4 teams in are the best built teams.....NFL Radio talked about it. In Fact they said Philly and SF might be the best built of the 4.....so Hurts and Purdy will be under a microscope. Ignoring team defeciencies and against Kirk seemed easier after a playoff loss (even though ESPN QBR showed he performed well).

Yeah, I don't know - be an easier argument for playing well if he doesn't Dak that last pass.

With the season on the line Kirk got two drives in the fourth to try and tie or win the game: On the first drive we gained -1 yards. On the second drive, even with the aid of a terrible roughing the passer call, six plays for 39 yards, turnover on downs. EDIT - crap I pasted the whole damn quarter when I only wanted to paste our last two drives. Friday morning fail.

Throw the Fing ball you pussy.

Phil Riewer -> RE: General Vikes Talk (1/27/2023 10:20:43 AM)
I saw the sequence....outside of the possible KJ reception there wasn't a play to make; but like I said...it made it easier for you to regress to the anti-Kirk crowd.

I know Kirk Cousins is totally a bum It's proven he can't get the job done Season ending loss On a rediculous toss But yay how the season was fun

Todd M -> RE: General Vikes Talk (1/27/2023 11:14:45 AM)
