Doogie and Skor North possible cuts and savings for 2026 as they are over 23 million after rolling 2025.
Ryan Kelly 12 million
TJ 9 million
Aaron Jones 7 million
Hargrove 11 million

These cuts won't even be painful(production wise). There also will be 2 or 3 re-structures that free up significant cap space.

If KAM makes its to April, it will be a make or break draft for him. JJM performance will also be huge for KAM job security.

we could trade o'neill for a 2nd or 3rd round pick and save $20mm in 2026...draft a RT in the 2nd or 3rd round and save big bucks....

1st round....CB/DT
2nd round....DT/CB/RT
3rd round....RT/DT
3rd round....C
4th round....RB

bpa for the rest of the draft....

do not trade addiison...extend addison after '26, sign nailor if we can cheap, trade jefferson after '26....

Great year to be sitting out. Haven't watched a single game. I even forgot to check for the results until the next morning a couple of times.

This will be year 6 that will end wo a playoff win since drafting Jefferson.

Of course we got the one round 1 QB that stinks.

There's really no reason to believe this franchise will ever win it all. They will always be dumb and/or choke.

Not missing the Bill and Marty show either.

I hope I'm wrong, but today seems like a day where things come off the rails

JJ throwing out the "I learned to play QB different" stuff now, seems like just throwing stuff at the wall to satisfy reporters questions
He played at one of the most prestigious HS in the country, at one of the top football schools in the country under Harbaugh, and we are supposed to believe that he just hasn't had the right coaching?

Outdoor environment vs a hostile crowd and fast defense vs guy who has been jittery and spraying the ball all over the field
Maybe GB being down so many offensive players keeps the game close

Seems like a get right week for Green Bay and the fork is officially put in the season.

Prove me wrong JJ

Not sure McCarthy can be salvaged. He's awful.

Need to see what we have in Brosmer

Never understood the hype honestly. Though I wanted him to be good. Its looking less likely every passing week. Total project qb with a coach that only seems to make qbs worse as the seasons go along. Yikes.

I think Brosmer has a different make-up than McCarthy. Not the coddled type.

"Rooke" status, limited experience, his Injuries, OL injuries, Mechanics... the excuses are mounting and old.

I think McCarthy is worse than Ponder. I guess that's what we get for drafting a QB that didn't throw in college.

There's absolutely no evidence to suggest otherwise so far. Completely brutal. If he gets 150 yards passing it feels like anyone else having 350.

McConnell deserves a lot of the blame too.
Jefferson thought he was going to be getting Cooper Kupp numbers.
Pretty obvious it was McVay all along. McConnell was just holding a clipboard.
Now Puka is gettting those numbers while Jefferson is practically invisible.
This offense is the worst in the league.

The one good thing about this debacle is KAM and Grigson have to be gone.

They have done such a poor job of adding talent on this team. The Hockenson contract may go down as one of the all time worst.

I think JJ had a chance to save KAM's job, but he also had the chance to end it if we know this year he's not the guy.

At this point I don't want KOC or anyone on this staff ruining another draft. Thats all that will happen next year.

No spots gained this week but you can't win them all.

Any ties can be broken if our opponents can string together some losses.

I believe nearly everyone has now checked out for the season. Another crushing season for us Viking fans.

I'm probably apathetic until we get a real coach in here. KOC is a little boy. It was never going to work long term.

It's not crushing if you never had high expectations to begin with! Seriously, outside of some miracle run with JJM a lot of people thought the Vikings would miss the playoffs or at best would be one and done. But yes, this is pretty bad. And Kwesi has managed to bring in a cavalcade of overpriced veterans, can't draft, etc so it's not like the future is necessarily bright.

Fire whoever hired Kwesi and thinks competitive rebuilds are a thing! If the team was merely treading water, the Wilfs would have bailed long ago.

If you were really rebuilding with promising, low cost talent the core would consist of Redmond, Donovan Jackson, maybe Turner, Reichard, and maybe a couple of the other young DL.

Almost unfair the Rams get a top 10 pick
They turned things over so fast after their SB win because they have a GM who can draft

People tried to tell me Kwesi was a good GM because he traded for Hockensen lol

Interesting comment from DN:

JJM isn't KOC's type of QB. KOC wants a classic drop back passer with excellent mechanics who goes through his progressions. J

JM, based on his tape at Michigan, is more of a make something happen on the fly type of QB. And he's trying his darndest to be a KOC type of QB, and he's just not that, and it's totally messing with him.

Jim Harbaugh might be the perfect coach for JJM. Herbert might be the perfect QB for KOC.

That's a sign of a terrible coach! Adapt your players to the system. It sure seems to be working with our awesome yardage gained in the 2nd half.

KAM.. gone TRADES Away picks AND CONTRACTS TO OLD SLOW players.. FTS..
KOC..gtroohwys and dltdhyitaotwo.

Smith, green.. Thielen, hockendrop, Murphy, brandel, ham, ****ing McCarthy!, gone!

This shit is the same loser mentality we have had since Dennis gren flamed out..

Decades wasted, chasing the “ one piece” win now bullshit..
The colts went from Payton manning, to Andrew luck to Daniel jones, whi,e we sit in the same corner and pick our nose and look for “ the one”..

Wilfs need to get rid of KOC AND KAM.. strat over..

Trade Jefferson to a contender.. he deserves better than this..

Addison is gonna want paid. and rightly so.. Nailor has upside and whoever is scouting drafts and suggesting players.. needs to be fired..

OL coach needs to be fired..

S& C staff needs to go..

Special teams coach needs to be dragged outside and curb stomped..

Who ever is in charge of fundamentals like tackling .. should be fired..

Did KOC hand pick the stupidest assistants on the planet?

I was here for Steckle.. this is ****ing close.. he was an asshole who couldn’t coach.. KOC is a “ nice guy” who can’t coach..

WHO THE **** DECIDED ON CARSON WENTZ, OVER Daniel Jones?
