  Welcome in to the Scene Project Sports Network.

  It is tailgate Tuesday, and the whole gang is here.

  We got a special guest with us tonight too.
• 1:01
  But before we get into all that and some Vikings football, another win in the books,
• 1:06
  let's get my cohost Big B in here.
• 1:08
  What's happening, B?
• 1:11
  Know, everything's good.
• 1:13
  A Florida start for our Vikings, watch a little bit of baseball playoffs, but, you know, Sunday
• 1:21
  game was kind of scary at a point, but a win's a win.
• 1:26
  You got it.
• 1:27
  Well, we got questions on that too.
• 1:29
  Is a win a win or not?
• 1:32
  Coach, what's good, buddy?
• 1:33
  What's going on, man?
• 1:35
  How are we doing, fellas?
• 1:36
  We're doing good, man.
• 1:38
  I I just...
• 1:38
  Off the top, I know, you know, your your aunt passed away today, and we wanna send all of our
• 1:44
  love out to you and our...
• 1:45
  And the family.
• 1:47
  And, you know, we love you.
• 1:49
  I know all of our fans are gonna say the same thing tonight.
• 1:52
  Our hearts are with you, and and we're gonna be here for you throughout, man.
• 1:57
  So love you, man, and really happy that you decided to to jump in with us tonight and honor
• 2:03
  honor a legacy by being present and being in the moment with us, man.
• 2:07
  So I appreciate you.
• 2:09
  Yeah.
• 2:09
  It's nice to hear about that, Cody.
• 2:10
  Yeah.
• 2:11
  No.
• 2:11
  I hate...
• 2:12
  I literally just found out about it, so a little bit ago.
• 2:17
  But
• 2:17
  Yeah.
• 2:18
  Well, we're gonna have a nice tribute in the coming weeks to your aunt Lois, and and I know
• 2:24
  she's so damn proud of you and everything that you're doing, brother.
• 2:28
  So we're gonna get to you and get some thoughts from you, give you a minute to catch your
• 2:32
  breath because we got a special guest joining us tonight, our boy Brevi.
• 2:36
  Brevi bright lights from heavy on Vikings and purple PTSD and Sports Illustrated and...
• 2:43
  You know?
• 2:44
  I don't know.
• 2:44
  Is there...
• 2:44
  You write for, like, Playboy or anything too, Brevi?
• 2:46
  You working on that?
• 2:47
  Oh, that that was coming up.
• 2:48
  We were gonna announce that soon.
• 2:50
  Oh, perfect.
• 2:51
  That's in the works.
• 2:52
  I'm also gonna be, like, a a cover model too.
• 2:54
  I was shocked they wanted that.
• 2:56
  But
• 2:58
  Oh, what's up, our boys?
• 3:01
  In the chat, Barbara, appreciate you.
• 3:04
  I know you were tapping in with us on the pregame show on Sunday.
• 3:08
  Sorry for the technical difficulties.
• 3:10
  You know, we're we're working through this every day, trying to get a little bit better.
• 3:14
  We were without our super producer, Paul.
• 3:16
  This week, it was his anniversary, so we were kinda having to fly by the seat of our pants a
• 3:21
  little bit.
• 3:21
  What up, Del?
• 3:22
  Appreciate you tapping in, man.
• 3:25
  You know, I gotta get the call in line like Rap Scott going so we can get Del on here some
• 3:30
  other times.
• 3:31
  But, tonight, Brev, we got you, man, and I kinda wanna start with, you know, this is your
• 3:36
  first time on the show.
• 3:38
  Have you share a little bit about, you know, who you are, what you do.
• 3:41
  I know you joined us at Skullfest over there for the special, and you're a part of the
• 3:45
  documentary and everything.
• 3:46
  But let our people know who you are, what you do, and then we're gonna get some thoughts on,
• 3:50
  you know, just the...
• 3:51
  Your overall thoughts through four weeks of the season here.
• 3:55
  Yeah.
• 3:56
  My name is, by government name, my name is Brevin Bain.
• 4:00
  I decided to go by the name Brevi Bright Lights for god knows what reason a couple years ago on
• 4:05
  Twitter when I started making a name for myself in the space.
• 4:08
  Yeah.
• 4:08
  I'm I'm a writer.
• 4:10
  I've got my own YouTube channel called the Scotia Network that I've been putting a lot
• 4:13
  more work in, work into and, yeah, work for heavy on Vikings.
• 4:18
  As of, like, two days ago, I'm actually not with Purple PTSD anymore.
• 4:22
  Bubba and I talked a little bit about that while we're in Minneapolis.
• 4:25
  But, yeah, that that happened.
• 4:28
  But, yeah, my life right now, like, my work is writing about football and forming opinions on
• 4:34
  football to make sure people are informed.
• 4:37
  And, you know, it's it's a great blessing.
• 4:39
  It's it's a dream career to have at 26 years old, single dude, just being able to sit in my
• 4:44
  room, watch this terrible football team, try to attempt to play American football.
• 4:49
  And, it's awesome, and it was it was so cool to meet you guys all in Minneapolis.
• 4:53
  I know me and Bubba, had we a bunch of time together.
• 4:55
  So Cody and Bea, we we weren't able to spend a ton of time, like, at School Fest together.
• 4:59
  We were all running around.
• 5:01
  You guys are doing the show, and I was helping put it on.
• 5:03
  But it was awesome to meet you guys, awesome to meet all the community.
• 5:06
  And and Bubba and I, he mentioned when we were doing our interview at school, was like, I
• 5:11
  couldn't imagine.
• 5:12
  And that was before the game.
• 5:13
  Like, I could not have asked for a better weekend, for my first time in Minnesota, but
• 5:18
  first ever Vikings game.
• 5:19
  Like, it's just unreal, unreal stuff.
• 5:22
  But, yeah, I...
• 5:23
  I'm excited to to be on here and share opinions that hopefully people can understand on this
• 5:28
  football team.
• 5:30
  Well, I I think especially with this team is that there is no opinion right now that is
• 5:35
  wrong.
• 5:35
  Right?
• 5:36
  That they've shown us a little bit of everything.
• 5:39
  I think everyone, you can both be happy with a four and o start.
• 5:43
  And I think any any team that, you know, gets out of the gate that way, especially having two
• 5:48
  of those against division rivals, You can't be mad about it, but there's so much to look at
• 5:54
  with this team to to go, is that sustainable?
• 5:57
  Right?
• 5:58
  Is a defense performing at that level sustainable over a seventeen, eighteen week
• 6:03
  season and then the playoffs is an offense that is this inept, sustainable over, you know, a
• 6:10
  quarter or a half of a season while they can get it right.
• 6:13
  I'm...
• 6:14
  I mean, did you think in week one and with, like, the kind of nervous energy that was
• 6:20
  around, on that day and especially after the eleventh play when Kyler goes out that we would
• 6:26
  be here a few...
• 6:27
  A month later at four and o and being one of the most dominant teams in the NFL.
• 6:34
  Yeah.
• 6:34
  It...
• 6:34
  It's it's definitely weird.
• 6:36
  And for the record, this is my first time, like, talking football on the same show as,
• 6:40
  like, an actual football coach.
• 6:42
  So forgive the nerves or anything stupid that I say here.
• 6:45
  But, yeah, the...
• 6:47
  It's weird.
• 6:48
  It's...
• 6:48
  We're four and o, but it's hard to be four and o happy just because of the offense.
• 6:54
  And and I had been saying all offseason, like, I'm not expecting this offense to take off as
• 6:59
  soon as Kyler touches the field.
• 7:00
  Like, Tom Brady, the GOAT himself, said this is gonna take a month and a half just for Kyler to
• 7:04
  get fully settled in.
• 7:06
  So, maybe we got spoiled by seeing Sam Darnold kind of step in and and immediately have
• 7:12
  success when he was here in 2024.
• 7:14
  And and that's just the style is the the style of Sam Arnold is what fits the KFC offense
• 7:19
  more.
• 7:20
  I'd be lying to myself if I was telling people that Kyler Murray is a perfect fit for this
• 7:24
  offense.
• 7:25
  He's not.
• 7:26
  But for 1,300,000, we're gonna make your small ass fit.
• 7:30
  So it it didn't...
• 7:32
  I didn't expect a ton of fireworks right off the bat, but, yeah, I think a a couple more
• 7:38
  weeks, and we saw that toward the end of the game on Sunday, which I'm sure we'll talk more
• 7:42
  about.
• 7:43
  Definitely, it's hard to get too too excited, but I also don't wanna be that guy, woah.
• 7:49
  Why are you guys excited about the four and o, but we're only scoring 17 points a game
• 7:54
  offensively.
• 7:55
  So...
• 7:55
  But I don't know.
• 7:56
  I get I get both sides.
• 7:57
  All coming off the foot of Will Reichard.
• 8:00
  Yeah.
• 8:00
  Exactly.
• 8:01
  It's all off Will.
• 8:02
  Shout out Will.
• 8:04
  Yeah.
• 8:05
  Oh, he's he's the man.
• 8:07
  Our guy Selly tapping in.
• 8:09
  We're gonna get Selly in here in a few minutes too on a wrap with the boys.
• 8:12
  And Cody, if at any point you feel like you just gotta go, man, you let us know.
• 8:17
  We got a full house tonight.
• 8:19
  So, coach, let's get your thoughts in here.
• 8:21
  We were there at the tailgate on Sunday.
• 8:24
  Vibes around this Vikings team right now, at least the...
• 8:27
  Before the game, feeling pretty good, you know, going against an o and three at the moment.
• 8:32
  You know, Miami team, I think the Vikings fans felt pretty confident.
• 8:37
  We'd be coming away with the win regardless of how the offense looked.
• 8:40
  They were right.
• 8:42
  That's part of the reason why I didn't end up even going into the into the game.
• 8:46
  Although we had the chance, I think tickets got down to, like, $70 right before game time.
• 8:51
  And we had...
• 8:52
  Yeah.
• 8:53
  Shout out to Pods who was definitely the emergency producer stepping in at the last
• 8:58
  minute.
• 8:58
  We appreciate you Pods.
• 9:00
  Invaluable member of the team.
• 9:03
  And part of the reason was just like, I didn't expect the offense to come out and tear it up.
• 9:07
  I didn't expect it from there.
• 9:08
  And that was always my pushback about getting Kyler.
• 9:10
  I I love the contract.
• 9:12
  How do you not love paying a guy a vet minimum who has been the rookie of the year and has
• 9:15
  shown you competent quarterback play?
• 9:18
  Right?
• 9:18
  Mhmm.
• 9:18
  I've...
• 9:19
  Where I pushed back was all the people that are like, MVP season.
• 9:22
  This dude's gonna throw for 4,500 yards, and I'm like, he's...
• 9:26
  You realize he's never done that.
• 9:27
  Right?
• 9:28
  Like, he's never thrown for 4,000 yards.
• 9:30
  He's never thrown for 40...
• 9:32
  He's never done any of the things that you're saying he's going to do, and he's this far into
• 9:36
  his career.
• 9:38
  I think the athletic ability is starting to wane a little bit with him.
• 9:41
  You can see it.
• 9:42
  He's not the same player he was when he entered the league at 22, 23 years old.
• 9:47
  He's not that same guy.
• 9:48
  Injuries have piled up.
• 9:50
  He's a tick slower.
• 9:51
  He's...
• 9:51
  Doesn't have that escapability, and I think that's been on display with him, especially
• 9:55
  taking three sacks in the first half of of this Miami game against a team that had no sacks up
• 10:01
  to that point.
• 10:02
  Right?
• 10:03
  So my pushback was always in, like, can he just go out and, like, have 3,000 yards and throw 20
• 10:09
  touchdowns and not turn the ball over?
• 10:11
  Right?
• 10:11
  Like, go give me twenty twenty touchdowns over the season and, like, three interceptions of
• 10:16
  which he's already clipped two of.
• 10:18
  And I'm gonna be really happy because this team is built just like KOC kinda talked about it on
• 10:23
  Pat McAfee today is like, hey.
• 10:26
  If we don't turn the ball over, we win games.
• 10:28
  So I'm all for sticking to that coach.
• 10:31
  My...
• 10:32
  I guess my question to you is playing in this fashion and then hoping that the offense
• 10:37
  catches up, it showed, you know, that there was a pulse at least in the fourth quarter.
• 10:42
  Do you have confidence now moving forward as the schedule gets increasingly harder?
• 10:47
  Maybe not with the saints game.
• 10:48
  The saints team, I think, we expect it to be a little bit better than their record is showing
• 10:53
  right now.
• 10:54
  But after the buy, we're facing a gauntlet of six weeks, four of the six weeks being really,
• 11:00
  really tough top of the NFL opponents.
• 11:04
  I mean, I would...
• 11:06
  I I I do have confidence in this offense to get it going.
• 11:11
  You know, like Benny said, you know, it's gonna take a couple weeks for Kyler to get going.
• 11:17
  I think there was a little bit of pushback, between him and KOC as to how they were gonna
• 11:25
  run this offense.
• 11:26
  You know, KOC had him under center for a lot of the season, and we mentioned it in the pregame
• 11:32
  show.
• 11:33
  In this game, we had him, you know, in the shotgun, performed a lot better, was able to
• 11:39
  see a lot better, obviously, you know, that just being back there, able to move.
• 11:44
  But, you know, this Vikings team year in and year out seems to play down to the competition
• 11:50
  and up to the competition.
• 11:52
  So I just...
• 11:53
  I hope that we're ready to play because, I mean, we're four and o, but how good are they
• 11:58
  really?
• 11:58
  We beat Miami 15 to 10, but didn't score a touchdown.
• 12:02
  You know, we're the third team in NFL history to start four and o while having two games
• 12:08
  without a touchdown.
• 12:10
  You know?
• 12:10
  Yeah.
• 12:10
  I mean, that's just just...
• 12:12
  It's crazy.
• 12:14
  Yeah.
• 12:14
  I I don't disagree with this stat line.
• 12:17
  I don't even know if it needs to be this good, Pods.
• 12:20
  I think you can take some of those rush yards off.
• 12:23
  If he throws for 3,000 yards and 25, 26 touchdowns and has it under half of that many
• 12:31
  picks, this team's gonna win double digit, you know, 13, maybe 14 games.
• 12:36
  Right?
• 12:36
  I don't see if we're playing up to this level and this defense continues to be what it is,
• 12:41
  especially Dallas Turner.
• 12:42
  You're getting so much pressure from your defensive line now that was almost kinda
• 12:47
  nonexistent early last year.
• 12:49
  And then when Grenard got hurt and Dallas Turner came on at the end of the year, you saw
• 12:53
  some flashes of this.
• 12:55
  But that's what makes when you bring pressure so much more effective.
• 12:58
  Right?
• 12:58
  Is that you're already getting pushed with your front four.
• 13:02
  When you bring five or six, you're getting home, and you are creating chaos.
• 13:08
  And that's what this defense thrives on, and it's now just a matter of can the offense be
• 13:15
  competent?
• 13:16
  It doesn't have to be an all star caliber.
• 13:19
  B, I know you're a little more hesitant to give any kind of flowers to the offense.
• 13:24
  I, for one, you know, I I wasn't watching, and I didn't really have a chance to listen.
• 13:29
  I was getting out of Minneapolis traffic early on and moving and didn't have time to put the
• 13:35
  game on and kinda get everything situated.
• 13:37
  So I was on 90 before I flipped the game on, and I was...
• 13:40
  It was pretty much, like, fourth quarter.
• 13:42
  And, of course, I'm watching the score.
• 13:43
  I'm like, damn.
• 13:44
  Like, this is getting a little close for comfort.
• 13:47
  But then I listened to that fourth quarter, and we held the ball the whole damn time.
• 13:52
  It's hard to be, for me, disappointed when it felt like things finally started to click.
• 13:58
  And maybe that's just the bias of not watching the first three quarters where it was more of
• 14:03
  the same from, say, the Bucks games.
• 14:06
  Yeah.
• 14:06
  No.
• 14:07
  It it was a frustrating game.
• 14:08
  And, yeah, this this game shouldn't have been as close as it was.
• 14:14
  And I know a lot of people were gonna talk probably in-depth about that last play with
• 14:18
  Hockison falling or kneeling down or sliding, that it was a right call, wrong call, whatever.
• 14:26
  But, yeah, it was a frustrating game.
• 14:28
  Yeah.
• 14:28
  That fourth quarter gives you a little hope, but yet you still didn't get a touchdown.
• 14:34
  I mean, we've had the ball for how long, and you just couldn't punch it in.
• 14:38
  I mean, I I guess that's where my frustration would come in is, you know, let Hockinson punch
• 14:44
  that sucker in.
• 14:46
  The chances of them coming back and scoring two touchdowns was a less than 1% chance with two
• 14:52
  minutes left.
• 14:52
  So, I mean, yes, it could happen.
• 14:55
  Yes.
• 14:55
  It...
• 14:55
  You know, most likely it wouldn't happen, but, I mean, yeah, we saw some light in the fourth
• 15:00
  quarter with the offense.
• 15:02
  You know, like Cody said, they put him in the shotgun a little bit more, saw a little better,
• 15:05
  But there was still drop balls throughout the game by everybody.
• 15:09
  I mean, the three sacks, like you said, Bubba, you know, wasn't wasn't a big help, but, you
• 15:16
  know, it's hard for me to think we're gonna see anything better with the saints or going into
• 15:21
  New Orleans on a short week for them.
• 15:24
  You know, it kinda scary that we couldn't put up more than 15 points.
• 15:29
  They got to our kicker against the Miami team that, you know, can't beat a paper bag right
• 15:35
  now.
• 15:36
  And now we're going into The States that look good for three weeks.
• 15:40
  It's it's one of those scary games.
• 15:45
  He sounds like he's gonna have a panic attack.
• 15:47
  And I think pods that b would agree with you in that, and he kind of is embodying that right
• 15:56
  now of, like, yeah, we're four and o, but, like, do we suck?
• 15:59
  Like, we suck.
• 16:00
  Right?
• 16:01
  No.
• 16:01
  I mean four and o.
• 16:02
  You you can't be four and o and sucking.
• 16:05
  I mean, our defense is holding us in there, and we saw times where the defense was on the field
• 16:11
  a long time the last couple of games, so they're getting tired.
• 16:14
  Know?
• 16:14
  So you to
• 16:16
  Exactly why.
• 16:17
  Why you kneel at the one, and you just seal it.
• 16:21
  It's done.
• 16:21
  Yes.
• 16:22
  I I know.
• 16:23
  But it's
• 16:23
  I mean, it's it's like it's like I consider that a 100% chance winning.
• 16:31
  You know what I'm saying?
• 16:31
  It it...
• 16:32
  Like, a $100 bill.
• 16:33
  If you walk if you walk and you see a $100 bill and the gun, you're gonna walk past it, no.
• 16:37
  You're gonna pick that $100 bill out.
• 16:39
  Go ahead.
• 16:40
  Take the win.
• 16:41
  Take the points.
• 16:41
  I don't care how it comes at this point.
• 16:43
  I mean
• 16:44
  Yeah.
• 16:44
  Now it would have been a lot easier if he was at the 10.
• 16:47
  Right?
• 16:47
  If he was at the 10 and he just takes the knee and nobody's even having an argument about it,
• 16:52
  There's no saying that he even gets in there.
• 16:54
  He still kind of has to go through the guy.
• 16:56
  You say, oh, well, he can just lean and barrel into him.
• 16:58
  That guy can also punch that ball out, and now you've just turned the ball over, you know, up
• 17:04
  five with the thing.
• 17:05
  So it...
• 17:05
  It's a 100% the right play.
• 17:07
  To hear KOC kinda go into it with McAfee, who obviously backed it up, a former player, I
• 17:12
  think anybody who's coached or played the game understands that that's the right play.
• 17:16
  Does it look stupid?
• 17:17
  Does it hurt the the fantasy guys and the prop bettors and and everyone who took who took the
• 17:24
  Vikings, you know, plus 10 and a half.
• 17:27
  Doesn't have to kill them.
• 17:29
  That's why you can't bet on that's why you can't bet on this side.
• 17:32
  Big big news.
• 17:33
  I don't know if anybody checked out the interview I did with Jared Goering last Friday,
• 17:37
  but I highly suggest you go out and listen to that.
• 17:39
  He has the...
• 17:40
  A company called the Prop Laboratory, and what he does is educational, betting content and
• 17:45
  really digging into the environment and not like the playing environment, but the
• 17:50
  environment around the teams that are playing one another and and the volatility that you're
• 17:56
  looking for and why he's been staying away from this Vikings team with every...
• 18:02
  Like, literally sees Vikings on the line and goes, nope.
• 18:05
  Oh, I I love it.
• 18:07
  Well, one thing, baby, you, shout out a a a statistic about, like, how much of a percentage
• 18:14
  it would be and this and that.
• 18:16
  But, like, you gotta add on at least 70% to that because we're Minnesota.
• 18:20
  If it can go on, it's also
• 18:22
  No.
• 18:23
  And and the thing is, if we woulda had this show, the act right after the gig, you guys
• 18:29
  woulda saw a whole different...
• 18:30
  I I would relive it.
• 18:31
  I would've, you know, told f off this, f off this.
• 18:34
  The Hockinson was this.
• 18:36
  He should've just burrowed in, you know, and stuff like that.
• 18:39
  You know?
• 18:39
  And I get it.
• 18:40
  Yes.
• 18:41
  I understand it's the right play.
• 18:43
  It was the right move.
• 18:43
  Coach, you said it that you would've done the same thing.
• 18:47
  It's just...
• 18:48
  I I just...
• 18:49
  I think as a fan, I wanted to see that touchdown.
• 18:53
  I wanted to see...
• 18:54
  I mean, Hockinson had a great game.
• 18:56
  The only thing he was missing was a touchdown.
• 18:58
  And I I think just as a fan, that's what was the frustrating part is we had chances to go,
• 19:03
  and we laid down.
• 19:05
  You know?
• 19:05
  And You you tell you tell the offense the same thing that KOC told them.
• 19:10
  Score touchdowns earlier, and we won't have this one.
• 19:13
  Yeah.
• 19:14
  And and you're right.
• 19:15
  And the whole thing is is this game...
• 19:17
  I mean, we all thought this game was gonna be a blowout from the start.
• 19:19
  We had to go all bust bust heads right away.
• 19:22
  You know?
• 19:23
  So that shouldn't even matter.
• 19:24
  But being that it was so close throughout the whole game, it was it was it was just a fan of
• 19:29
  me that it was just like, oh my god.
• 19:30
  You didn't even punch it in when you had a chance.
• 19:33
  You know?
• 19:33
  And I I was living.
• 19:35
  Yeah.
• 19:36
  True.
• 19:36
  But, I mean Don't Gotta give it up to these guys.
• 19:39
  Great, great stats, man.
• 19:41
  Currently fifth in yardage and first in points.
• 19:43
  How do you not love that defense?
• 19:45
  And how do you not show them respect by saying, hey, boys.
• 19:48
  We got this.
• 19:49
  Right?
• 19:49
  Yep.
• 19:50
  No.
• 19:50
  I'm sure those guys are over there sucking air.
• 19:52
  You're obviously worried about injuries when you get into a a point like that.
• 19:56
  You had already lost a couple of guys.
• 19:58
  You know, your entire left side of the line Yep.
• 20:00
  Is already in the locker room by that time at the end of the game.
• 20:03
  Right?
• 20:03
  Dara saw tried to come back in, I know, and and then kinda left later.
• 20:08
  There is...
• 20:09
  There's definitely something to a respect for the defense in that moment too to say, no.
• 20:15
  But we...
• 20:16
  We're not putting you back out there.
• 20:17
  Don't care what the optics are, which is exactly what we've kind of been asking of KOC
• 20:22
  for seasons is like, you know, and this year, kind of had some, you know, revelations in
• 20:26
  that.
• 20:27
  Like, look.
• 20:27
  It doesn't always have to be pretty.
• 20:28
  I'm not gonna worry about the headlines the next day.
• 20:31
  They're gonna be what they're gonna be, and I'm gonna move forward.
• 20:34
  So I'd love the Pat McAfee interview with with KOC today.
• 20:39
  Another reason why I continue to kinda stand by him as a coach, because we've started to see
• 20:44
  some humility from a man that didn't show a lot of it in his first, you know, what, three, four
• 20:50
  years in the league where he he definitely had a come to Jesus moment at some point in late
• 20:56
  last season and finally took a hard look in the mirror, made changes, he hasn't lost the game
• 21:02
  since.
• 21:02
  He's gone one and o every single week since then.
• 21:05
  So I'm gonna start too, and our guy, Rap, had a great video on that today too.
• 21:10
  So really just...
• 21:11
  You know what?
• 21:12
  I appreciate a man taking a mea culpa.
• 21:15
  Right?
• 21:16
  Hey.
• 21:16
  This was my bad.
• 21:18
  I was too worried about outside noise, and I was calling plays and making decisions based on
• 21:24
  what those were going to be instead of just going out and winning football games.
• 21:28
  And, you know, champions don't worry about headlines.
• 21:32
  They worry about going one and o every single week.
• 21:35
  And as long as this team continues to do so and shows signs of life, And and for me, I took it
• 21:42
  as a positive.
• 21:43
  Yeah.
• 21:43
  Did we wanna beat the brakes off Miami?
• 21:45
  Sure.
• 21:45
  You still won.
• 21:46
  Coulda scored 22 on them.
• 21:48
  I'll give them that.
• 21:49
  I know it doesn't show up in the stat sheet and in the papers, but you had the game.
• 21:55
  You were in control.
• 21:56
  You never relinquished that.
• 21:58
  Did it get a little iffy?
• 21:59
  Sure.
• 21:59
  But you stepped up in the moments you needed to and made the plays.
• 22:03
  So, you know, you're gonna have to be better, I think, against the Saints team who, you know,
• 22:08
  kind of...
• 22:09
  Is Atlanta that good?
• 22:11
  Because Atlanta
• 22:12
  good.
• 22:12
  Yeah.
• 22:14
  Well, I mean...
• 22:15
  And this offense is getting better.
• 22:16
  They're starting to at least grow.
• 22:19
  They're controlling the wall.
• 22:20
  I mean, 72 plays of offense to there's 37, two to one advantage.
• 22:25
  We had the ball for fourteen minutes in the fourth quarter, nearly 40 for the game.
• 22:31
  You know, it's...
• 22:33
  You could do...
• 22:34
  Like, we were we were killing.
• 22:37
  Yeah.
• 22:38
  It's it's it's hard to get beat when you play like that.
• 22:41
  When you hold the ball for that long, it's hard to lose a game.
• 22:45
  And, honestly, the the stat...
• 22:47
  And I gotta shout out our guy, Dell, who I know is in the chat and hanging out with us.
• 22:51
  I didn't realize what the stats were.
• 22:53
  Like I said, I was driving home at the time, not really, you know, checking the the score
• 22:58
  and the stats all the time, and it was on listening to him tap in with rap later on that,
• 23:04
  you know, to me, that was the sign that I needed to see to feel like it's moving in the
• 23:11
  right direction.
• 23:12
  Right?
• 23:12
  If we didn't have that in the fourth quarter, I'm on them.
• 23:14
  Right?
• 23:15
  I'm on the Kyler, and I'm I'm probably sitting here like our guy, SK, saying I will ride.
• 23:21
  I want Carson Wentz.
• 23:23
  But you know what?
• 23:24
  We're we're starting to see the melding of what KOC wants to do and what your quarterback can
• 23:30
  do.
• 23:30
  And, hopefully, to to go out there and...
• 23:33
  You know?
• 23:34
  Can it start like it finished in the fourth quarter on Sunday against the saints?
• 23:39
  Because for me, like, now that you've shown us that you kinda figured something out, there's
• 23:44
  no two steps forward, one step back.
• 23:46
  Right?
• 23:47
  Like, no.
• 23:47
  You know what you can do well.
• 23:49
  Go out and just, like, do that.
• 23:50
  Whatever those plays were in the fourth quarter, just go run that same shit again on...
• 23:56
  In the first quarter and continue to do it.
• 23:59
  Go up by three scores early and just roll and let your defense pin their ears back.
• 24:05
  Well...
• 24:05
  And another thing is is, like, you know, a lot of people have been asking me, is this offense
• 24:11
  actually bad, or is it incomplete?
• 24:13
  And I'd say it's incomplete.
• 24:15
  I mean, we had, what, 336 yards of offense.
• 24:19
  That's our highest, you know, yardage output this season.
• 24:23
  You know?
• 24:25
  And that's without JJ.
• 24:27
  So, I mean, we...
• 24:29
  We're just consistently putting the pieces together in my opinion.
• 24:32
  Well, that's where it's important.
• 24:34
  And, coach, I guess you would attest and agree with this too.
• 24:37
  This is where...
• 24:38
  And and as fans, like, I understand, it's way quicker to look at the numbers and be like, oh,
• 24:43
  okay.
• 24:44
  This is the whole story.
• 24:45
  But, like, to actually watch the tape...
• 24:47
  And and I did I did a big no no by the NFL last night.
• 24:50
  I showed every single rep of Kyler Murray on NFL Pro on livestream last night.
• 24:55
  I'm probably gonna get sued by Roger.
• 24:58
  But, I showed it, and it's like, we we have this thing.
• 25:03
  Kyler Murray, the offense started slow, but he do...
• 25:05
  He wasn't even playing bad at the beginning of the game.
• 25:07
  He was controlling what he could control.
• 25:09
  He looked in control for most of the game, and, obviously, that came to fruition more at the
• 25:14
  end of the game where he had, in my opinion, two absolutely dagger.
• 25:18
  I don't know how much I can swear on here, but just the the throw to Addison in the middle of
• 25:23
  those three or four defenders and that that little kinda...
• 25:26
  That...
• 25:26
  I don't know if it'd be...
• 25:27
  You'd call it a slot fade, but that vertical route to TJ Hawkinson, perfect ball.
• 25:32
  And TJ Hawkinson, I will never...
• 25:34
  It's hard for me to say anything nice about him, but TJ Hockinson, have a day.
• 25:40
  Like, when when you watch the film, I think as fans, a lot of people attack the game.
• 25:46
  Like, if this thing is true, then this other thing must be true.
• 25:50
  If Kyler Murray is not playing well, then then this this other thing must be wired.
• 25:56
  This is the reason why.
• 25:57
  I think when you watch the film of yesterday in a vacuum, you see good play calling for the
• 26:02
  most part, and you see decent play from Kyler Murray.
• 26:05
  That doesn't mean that there's gonna be 400 yards of passing offense and five touchdowns to
• 26:10
  the air.
• 26:10
  It's what coach said exactly.
• 26:12
  It's incomplete.
• 26:13
  When these things click...
• 26:15
  And the Vikings...
• 26:16
  And, Bobby, you were saying this earlier.
• 26:17
  We we don't need to be a top five, top 10 offense that we saw every year until he he who
• 26:24
  shall not be named walked in here and tried to play NFL quarterback for 10 games last season.
• 26:28
  So, like, this isn't a new thing to where this offense would be working.
• 26:31
  Like, we know Kevin O'Connell, though, he didn't wake up in May last offseason, forget
• 26:36
  how to call a passing offense.
• 26:37
  You just had quarterbacks that weren't worthy of being in the NFL playing quarterback for him
• 26:41
  last year.
• 26:42
  So I think when that when that offense gets to even just league average and if Kevin
• 26:49
  O'Connell, he...
• 26:50
  He's this anointed offense of mine in the NFL, obviously, the standard for that should be
• 26:54
  higher.
• 26:55
  But in terms of winning games with this defense, league average offense is all you
• 26:59
  need.
• 26:59
  And, like, we're a legitimate contender.
• 27:03
  Yeah.
• 27:03
  You can have the eighteenth best d...
• 27:06
  Offense.
• 27:06
  And if you have a number one defense, you are going to win a lot of football games.
• 27:11
  And you can win postseason football games that way as well.
• 27:15
  I wanna go ahead
• 27:16
  and and get our guys three guns.
• 27:18
  Fire away, coach.
• 27:19
  So, I mean, yeah, we're, you know, we're questioning the quarterback play.
• 27:25
  Alright?
• 27:28
  You know, let's say he has a Jameis Winston season 30 for 30.
• 27:33
  Do you guys think that's good enough to get through?
• 27:37
  Like, can an NFL team legitimately contend if its defense is elite, but its offense ranks
• 27:43
  near the bottom of the league inefficiency?
• 27:46
  If you're
• 27:46
  still winning the turnover battle,
• 27:48
  I think.
• 27:49
  Yeah.
• 27:49
  Well, I just...
• 27:50
  Is your is your defense turning the ball over 60 times?
• 27:54
  Right?
• 27:54
  Like, if you're giving the ball away 30 times on interceptions, you're probably gonna factor
• 27:59
  in double digit fumbles into that over the course of a season as well.
• 28:03
  You can't give the ball away and give that many possessions away and expect to be a good
• 28:08
  football team.
• 28:09
  So I don't think it's possible with a 30 for 30.
• 28:12
  I do think it's possible with a guy that can go twenty and ten, though, give you 10 less
• 28:17
  touchdowns, but also give you 20 less interceptions and turn the ball.
• 28:22
  Just take care of the ball.
• 28:24
  This running...
• 28:24
  When we get Jordan Mason back, it's gonna really change the look of this team again as
• 28:28
  well.
• 28:29
  And maybe you can get some of these other running backs going.
• 28:32
  And I...
• 28:32
  They're committed.
• 28:33
  They're committed to running the ball.
• 28:35
  So, b, what what do you think?
• 28:40
  Yeah.
• 28:40
  I'm I'm with you, Bob.
• 28:41
  I think we could do it with the twenty ten guy.
• 28:44
  I'm not sure.
• 28:46
  I I I don't think it's a possibility we could do it with a thirty thirty guy either.
• 28:50
  But like you said, though, the defense almost has to get a turnover every time they get on
• 28:55
  the field, if not twice.
• 28:57
  So, no, I just think, you know, what we saw Friday, I mean, Tyler didn't make any mistakes.
• 29:06
  He did throw an interception.
• 29:08
  He, you know, like, was said that had a couple nice day gets there in the fourth quarter.
• 29:15
  So it might be one of those that we just have to sit back and include myself and just let the
• 29:21
  office develop.
• 29:22
  And, hopefully, the bye week's a good learning experience for them, and we come all with
• 29:26
  against the lions.
• 29:27
  And we seal a a revamped offense where they've taken it down and the defense is not as tired.
• 29:35
  And if if this if this team could come complete, the sky's the limit for these guys.
• 29:41
  And and I think
• 29:42
  that's why I'm excited, right, is that we have been underperforming in every way, and we're
• 29:49
  starting to see that arrow kinda turn upwards a little bit.
• 29:53
  And that has to give you...
• 29:55
  Like I said, I saw signs of life finally out of an offense that has been flatlined for three
• 30:01
  three quarter games.
• 30:03
  And now you're like, oh, oh, if it looks like that for four quarters, you're gonna start
• 30:10
  putting up more points than you did.
• 30:12
  You're gonna have three touchdowns and and, you know, probably still gonna have three, four
• 30:17
  field goals because drives stall out.
• 30:19
  But you literally get across the 50 yard line, and you're like, put it in, Will.
• 30:24
  Like, we're we're good.
• 30:26
  Well...
• 30:26
  And I just wanna point this out.
• 30:28
  I mean, like, yeah, it looked better.
• 30:31
  It was by far one of the better performances so far, but dig...
• 30:35
  I dug a little deeper.
• 30:37
  Kyler averaged just shy of five yards per attempt.
• 30:41
  Only 18.9% of his throws traveled at least 10 yards downfield and zero pass...
• 30:49
  Zero passes of 20 plus through the air.
• 30:52
  So my question to you guys is, do you think Kevin O'Connell is protecting Kyler Murray, or
• 30:59
  is the offense simply not creating enough explosive passing opportunities?
• 31:05
  Can I take this one?
• 31:06
  Yes.
• 31:06
  Go, Brev.
• 31:08
  I think Kevin O'Connell has been doing exactly...
• 31:11
  I'm really gonna come off like an ultimate Kevin O'Connell apologist, which I kind of am.
• 31:16
  But, I think Kevin O'Connell has been doing exactly what people had been criticizing him
• 31:20
  for for, especially with JJ McCarthy last year, which I didn't agree with.
• 31:27
  I think, like, watching the film, there's a lot more short stuff than there seem than there
• 31:31
  seem to be in years past.
• 31:33
  Kyler has always been that short ADOT guy.
• 31:36
  He's always been kind of a check down merchant.
• 31:38
  That's part of why he was, like, the seventh most accurate quarterback of all time coming
• 31:41
  into the season.
• 31:42
  But, I think part of it is that's just who Kyler Murray is.
• 31:46
  I think Kevin O'Connell knows that.
• 31:48
  And, like, the the tape of Tampa Bay, I I broke that down too.
• 31:52
  I was like, oh my god, Kyler.
• 31:54
  Just take the check down.
• 31:55
  You've done it for seven years.
• 31:56
  Just do...
• 31:57
  Jawan Jennings is right there.
• 31:58
  Just throw just throw the the six yard grab route, get your yards.
• 32:01
  It...
• 32:01
  It's cool.
• 32:02
  You can do that.
• 32:02
  You're allowed to do that.
• 32:03
  This week, it's kinda like he was like, oh, yeah.
• 32:06
  I can do that.
• 32:07
  So I think once we get that healthy kind of medium, I guess, and that's where we go back to
• 32:13
  the offense, it's just incomplete.
• 32:16
  Because there there are things downfield.
• 32:18
  This week, it didn't look like as many things were open downfield as last week.
• 32:21
  And, of course, part of that is the Justin Jefferson effect.
• 32:25
  Jordan Addison is a fine wide receiver.
• 32:27
  I'm not as high on him as a lot of Vikings fans are.
• 32:30
  Ty Felton either, Brev.
• 32:32
  We're
• 32:32
  a good company.
• 32:33
  Ty Felton couldn't even get open in Maryland, so I I don't have high hopes of him getting
• 32:38
  open in the NFL right now.
• 32:40
  But, yeah, I think downfield to Justin Jefferson, the the the lack of him on the field
• 32:45
  was felt.
• 32:46
  So I think when he comes back and teams just have to respect him more, I think downfield
• 32:51
  opens up.
• 32:51
  And we saw Kyler's ability to throw downfield.
• 32:53
  Got...
• 32:54
  Oh my god.
• 32:54
  I made some weird noises when I saw that one third of Jordan Addison in the last drive.
• 32:59
  I...
• 32:59
  Like, not...
• 32:59
  It it
• 33:00
  probably Yeah.
• 33:00
  I just explicit.
• 33:01
  I don't think the forty, fifty yard...
• 33:03
  Like, he doesn't have that.
• 33:05
  Right?
• 33:05
  Like, because of the size and and not to just rag on the guy, like, he can't help the way
• 33:10
  that he was born, but he's not a Darnold who can throw the ball 80 yards in the air.
• 33:15
  Right?
• 33:15
  He doesn't have that.
• 33:17
  And to ask him to do those things is putting him not in the best position to win.
• 33:23
  And I think that's all that I've been asking out of out of KOC the last few years.
• 33:26
  It's what I was asking in the the NFC championship or the divisional game against the
• 33:31
  Rams.
• 33:32
  Like, why are you having fucking Sam Darnold drop back 50 times?
• 33:37
  Like, that's not his game.
• 33:38
  And then last year, he goes out and wins a Super Bowl playing exactly what he's built to
• 33:42
  do, and you're like, yeah.
• 33:43
  Why couldn't we do that?
• 33:45
  And now you have a a coach who has adjusted everything that he wants to do to fit his
• 33:51
  quarterback, and and we kinda wanna come after him now for that as well.
• 33:55
  And it's just people can't ever, just Well You know, you you can't be happy.
• 34:02
  And I was gonna follow it up as it kinda scares me, and I hope that this, offense continues to
• 34:08
  progress and elevate, because right now, defenses are gonna start to realize, like, hey.
• 34:13
  We gotta make Minnesota drive down the field.
• 34:16
  You know, dink and dunk, and we're doing it right now, but can we do that against an elite
• 34:21
  defense?
• 34:22
  You know what I'm saying?
• 34:23
  Can we get away with that?
• 34:26
  Yeah.
• 34:26
  Well, we're gonna we're gonna find out, in, like, three weeks.
• 34:31
  Detroit doesn't scare me.
• 34:33
  The Bills are the Bills, and and I think that's gonna be by far our biggest test up to that
• 34:40
  point.
• 34:41
  It's a Monday night game.
• 34:42
  It's gonna be the salute to service game.
• 34:44
  It's gonna have a lot riding on it as you finally kinda see it and not to get out over
• 34:49
  our skis and kinda forget about the other ones.
• 34:51
  Right now, you're kinda playing with house money.
• 34:53
  The saints look very beatable coming off a short week, feeling pretty good about this.
• 34:57
  It sounds like Jettas will be back.
• 34:59
  He's been moving around.
• 35:00
  You know he wants this one in the Superdome, a place where he probably grew up going to games.
• 35:05
  Right?
• 35:06
  I'm sure being a local kid.
• 35:07
  So he wants this, and that's probably a big reason.
• 35:10
  He probably could've gone.
• 35:11
  And if this was a playoff game or end of the season and had any consequence to it, he
• 35:15
  probably plays against Miami on Sunday.
• 35:18
  Right?
• 35:19
  But it's...
• 35:20
  Hey.
• 35:20
  It's a long season, bud.
• 35:22
  We know you're gonna wanna be back for New Orleans.
• 35:24
  Let's get you rested up and coming in, and then you're gonna have the buy after that.
• 35:28
  So, yeah, we'll see.
• 35:29
  And, hey, that's that's no...
• 35:32
  And fig...
• 35:32
  That's no disrespect to the saints.
• 35:34
  There was a lot of talk.
• 35:35
  I hadn't watched any saints football until last night, and the wife was bowling.
• 35:39
  So we had it up on the TV at the bowling alley and kinda watching.
• 35:43
  And they looked beatable.
• 35:45
  And I guess that was my thing is I thought they were going to be a little bit tougher, and and
• 35:50
  maybe that's Atlanta.
• 35:51
  Maybe Atlanta is better than than we're kind of giving them credit for.
• 35:55
  We know they can run the ball.
• 35:56
  They did it to us last year on the...
• 35:59
  Was it a Monday night or a Sunday night game, a week two, and just beat the brakes off of this
• 36:04
  Vikings team and ran our defense off the field.
• 36:07
  So, you know, I we'll see, man.
• 36:11
  Let's get our guys set.
• 36:11
  Selly's been backstage for a while.
• 36:13
  I I wanted to get some of these thoughts out, but let's get our guy Selly in here.
• 36:17
  Selly, meet our boy Brevi.
• 36:19
  Brevi, this is our guy Selly, cohost our basketball show with me and contributes on the
• 36:24
  tailgate show too.
• 36:26
  Nice to meet you.
• 36:27
  I...
• 36:27
  Brevi, great insight, dude.
• 36:29
  Been listening the whole time.
• 36:30
  Appreciate you.
• 36:31
  Try my best, at least.
• 36:33
  I'm gonna be honest, guys.
• 36:34
  I thought this pod would be a little...
• 36:36
  A lot more negative today.
• 36:39
  Hey.
• 36:39
  Four and only.
• 36:40
  You got...
• 36:41
  What's there to be negative about?
• 36:43
  No.
• 36:44
  Because, like, the offense, I had a whole bunch of notes.
• 36:46
  I had, like, QB options you might trade for, benching Kyler.
• 36:52
  I'm like, oh, scrap it, though.
• 36:53
  I I...
• 36:54
  I'm ready for different Well,
• 36:56
  let's let's start here.
• 36:57
  Let's start here.
• 37:00
  TJ Hockinson.
• 37:01
  Okay?
• 37:03
  Yeah.
• 37:03
  Probably the biggest offensive story of the game.
• 37:06
  13 receptions, 13 targets, a 119 yards.
• 37:10
  Zero drops, zero touchdowns, you know, 100% catch rate.
• 37:14
  He tied his career high, set a Vikings record for receptions in a game against Miami.
• 37:21
  Instead of scoring, Hawkinson went down.
• 37:26
  What...
• 37:26
  Me your thoughts.
• 37:28
  No.
• 37:29
  I...
• 37:29
  I'm all about the win.
• 37:30
  Like, you just gotta...
• 37:32
  You just have to guarantee the win.
• 37:34
  In the NFL, weird stuff happens.
• 37:36
  Funky stuff can happen, and you just wanna guarantee the win get out of there.
• 37:41
  Just...
• 37:41
  I'm a...
• 37:42
  I'm a...
• 37:43
  Agree with what he did.
• 37:44
  Right.
• 37:44
  Because, I mean, Miami had no timeouts.
• 37:47
  All we simply had to do is kneel.
• 37:50
  I always go back to a few years ago with, Sam...
• 37:55
  Or Kirk Cousins and that amazing catch with Jefferson, that Bills game few years.
• 38:00
  You know what I'm saying?
• 38:01
  I mean, they they were at the goal...
• 38:05
  Bills at the goal line just trying to get out of there, fumble it.
• 38:08
  We pick it up, you know, get the score, and, you know, get the safety and then go down and
• 38:14
  tie it and eventually win.
• 38:15
  So you never know what's gonna go down.
• 38:18
  Take it while you can run.
• 38:19
  Take it and run with it.
• 38:22
  No.
• 38:23
  I agree with you.
• 38:23
  Fumbled snaps, botched snaps.
• 38:26
  You don't want anything weird happening.
• 38:28
  And once you have the wind solidified, you should take the knee.
• 38:32
  Yeah.
• 38:32
  It's like it's
• 38:32
  What's like happening in the in the...
• 38:35
  In victory formation too?
• 38:36
  Could've been a box snap and stuff like that.
• 38:39
  So why you have three guys behind the quarterback that are within a yard of the
• 38:42
  football.
• 38:43
  One looking down.
• 38:44
  You are lowering that to point 1%, and the other team had
• 38:48
  that respect.
• 38:49
  But everybody everybody made it sound like it was a part...
• 38:52
  A foregone conclusion that nothing could happen after we took the knee or laid down on the one.
• 38:59
  I mean
• 39:00
  I mean, a reason we call it victory formation, b.
• 39:04
  Like, like, there's there's there's a reason for that.
• 39:07
  Shout out to Hawkinson for...
• 39:09
  You know, he happened a game like that and, you know, 13 targets, 13 catches over a 100 yards.
• 39:15
  No.
• 39:15
  I...
• 39:16
  But no touchdowns.
• 39:18
  That speaks to his character.
• 39:20
  You know, he's all about the team.
• 39:22
  I know a lot of people that are just...
• 39:23
  Would have walled stuff in there.
• 39:25
  You feel me?
• 39:26
  So
• 39:26
  I would've.
• 39:27
  And the the thing that I
• 39:28
  It is what it is.
• 39:29
  That's why I coached that play.
• 39:31
  Yeah.
• 39:31
  Yeah.
• 39:31
  The the thing I think of is, like, not even just...
• 39:35
  Like, I wouldn't be worried about Miami coming back.
• 39:37
  Like, your your winning percentage is still above 98, 99% if you wanna give it a number.
• 39:42
  But, like, you go to the casino, you get up money.
• 39:46
  Let's get the hell out of there.
• 39:48
  Money on a blackjack.
• 39:49
  Take it and run.
• 39:50
  Yeah.
• 39:51
  If if you score a touchdown, cool.
• 39:53
  Like, and b was completely...
• 39:54
  Like, as a fan, I wanna see the Vikings score touchdowns.
• 39:57
  The argument on Twitter that I saw that I didn't like was, oh, I just wanted the offense
• 40:01
  to have momentum going into next week.
• 40:03
  There was not a force field at the goal line of no momentum versus momentum going into New
• 40:07
  Orleans.
• 40:08
  So that's that's the argument I hated the most.
• 40:10
  And then, like, who's the...
• 40:11
  Like, your your chances of losing that game if you score the touchdown are point 0.5%.
• 40:18
  Yep.
• 40:19
  But the the chance of injury to a defensive player...
• 40:22
  And we...
• 40:23
  I think we all know that that...
• 40:24
  Knowing this team, there's a good chance for that.
• 40:26
  I've...
• 40:27
  I'm already out Charles Demings for a week.
• 40:28
  Like, I'm struggling.
• 40:29
  I can't lose another person.
• 40:31
  So I think the chances of a defensive player getting hurt are above 5%, and that's enough
• 40:36
  for me to be like, oh, a 100%?
• 40:38
  Yeah.
• 40:38
  Let...
• 40:38
  Let's bounce.
• 40:40
  Let's get out of here.
• 40:40
  No.
• 40:41
  And and that's the whole thing is I I get the whole thing.
• 40:43
  And like I said, if you guys woulda got me after the game, would've been a whole different
• 40:48
  big b right now.
• 40:49
  Yeah.
• 40:49
  But,
• 40:49
  no, I totally get it.
• 40:51
  I understand it.
• 40:52
  You know?
• 40:54
  So
• 40:55
  Yeah.
• 40:56
  You gotta keep this team fresh for 17 games, and you don't do that by putting a tire defense
• 41:01
  back on the field when you don't need to.
• 41:04
  And and that's why it was a great coaching moment.
• 41:06
  I think it's been, you know, kind of reiterated now in the papers.
• 41:10
  And I don't think anybody inside of that building was like, damn.
• 41:12
  Like, we should have got more points on the board.
• 41:15
  You know?
• 41:15
  You...
• 41:16
  Whatever.
• 41:16
  Like, it doesn't matter.
• 41:18
  You move on.
• 41:18
  Right?
• 41:18
  The the twenty four hour rule that they all kinda live by that that gets in there.
• 41:25
  Yeah.
• 41:25
  Jackson being out now for the season, the...
• 41:29
  This hurts.
• 41:29
  Right?
• 41:30
  And somebody had kinda mentioned it earlier.
• 41:32
  Fig, it might have been you that, you know, this is kinda Teasley time.
• 41:36
  What can he do to go get us that?
• 41:38
  And I think the guys that came in performed admirably for backups, but you know right now
• 41:44
  with three weeks three weeks or a month leading up to the to the trade deadline, and you'd have
• 41:52
  to correct me, Brad.
• 41:52
  You're the one who'd be in there.
• 41:54
  The running backs, like, we're gonna get a running back back.
• 41:56
  Like, when we get Jordan Mason back, that whole room shifts to where it should be just like
• 42:00
  getting Justin Jefferson back.
• 42:01
  Everything kinda goes where it should be and slides back into spots, so I'm not worried
• 42:06
  about that.
• 42:06
  But we need the interior of the offensive line help, especially being out Josh Oliver, which I
• 42:13
  think not a lot of people...
• 42:14
  There's some people that are talking about it, the ones who are know how important it is.
• 42:18
  It's the reason that you were seeing Caleb Tiernan out on the field and you were seeing
• 42:22
  this elephant package that they call it instead of a three tight end look.
• 42:27
  Right?
• 42:27
  It is because you no longer have that guy over here.
• 42:31
  Shout out our guy, two e.
• 42:33
  I play McCarthy too, man.
• 42:36
  Like, that's the reason my signal sucked on Sunday, not because I turned the fucking
• 42:40
  Starlink the wrong way.
• 42:42
  Mhmm.
• 42:43
  Underneath the tree.
• 42:45
  Yep.
• 42:45
  Yeah.
• 42:45
  Well, it'd be supposed to point north, and I thought it was like the old direct to me
• 42:49
  satellite.
• 42:49
  It had to point south.
• 42:51
  No.
• 42:51
  It goes the opposite way.
• 42:52
  I don't know directions very well.
• 42:54
  I'm a stupid podcaster.
• 42:55
  You guys leave me alone.
• 42:56
  Neither do
• 42:57
  I assume we're gonna find out what's going on with with Darasaw tomorrow.
• 43:03
  I highly doubt with the way it looked that he's going to be a full participant on Wednesday,
• 43:09
  and we'll see if that moves the limit on Thursday and Friday.
• 43:12
  Speaking of Barasol, as of ESPN's reporting, he's in the cutter...
• 43:19
  Concussion protocol for all the Sunday game Yep.
• 43:22
  Versus the dolphins.
• 43:23
  So Yep.
• 43:24
  Yeah.
• 43:24
  So it's day by day pretty much with him.
• 43:26
  If he could pass those tests, he'll play.
• 43:28
  If he can, he won't.
• 43:29
  So Okay.
• 43:30
  And that's gonna that's gonna affect this running game.
• 43:33
  And Yep.
• 43:34
  You know, you were talking about keeping the defense fresh.
• 43:36
  We gotta try to keep this Aaron Jones fresh.
• 43:39
  20 carries, 94 yards, 4.7 per carry.
• 43:43
  I mean, he's he's a dog, and he was able to run...
• 43:47
  We were able to run the ball effectively while keeping, Miami honest and controlling the
• 43:53
  clock.
• 43:53
  But, I mean, shoot.
• 43:56
  I don't know how long it will last, but I feel like Aaron Jones is the in...
• 44:00
  Is still the engine of this offense.
• 44:03
  Yeah.
• 44:04
  Well, he looks healthy, and he looked healthy in training camp and really...
• 44:08
  The same thing with Hawk.
• 44:09
  Right?
• 44:10
  Got on Hawk a lot last year.
• 44:12
  He just wasn't the same guy.
• 44:13
  That knee injury in, you know, what, 2024, I I think was still having effects.
• 44:20
  It looks like he's kinda back to being the athlete that he's been.
• 44:23
  The guy's never gonna be an elite blocker.
• 44:25
  Right?
• 44:26
  Like, he...
• 44:26
  It's just not in his game.
• 44:28
  It is what it is.
• 44:29
  But if he can go out and get open over a a safety and and kind of get loose from some of
• 44:36
  these linebackers.
• 44:37
  He was always a matchup problem as kind of that u tight end.
• 44:41
  So if he's playing at that level, that helps a lot.
• 44:44
  It's just a matter of figuring out where guys are gonna slot in to keep this running game
• 44:50
  kinda moving at the level that it has been because it is right now a huge part of this
• 44:55
  offense.
• 44:57
  Yeah.
• 44:58
  And I think the the thing to note with Dara saw is he went out...
• 45:03
  He came back in after he went out and then went out again.
• 45:06
  So I think when he went out, it was a...
• 45:08
  It looked like a stinger kind of because his head, like...
• 45:11
  It...
• 45:11
  The head did the thing where he, like, went to the back of the knee and, like, his...
• 45:15
  He kind of, like, for...
• 45:17
  I don't I don't know the word for that, so hopefully that made sense.
• 45:20
  Basically, like, his head, like, neck got shoved back into his body.
• 45:24
  So I think he had probably a stinger or something then, and then he went out with the
• 45:29
  concussion.
• 45:30
  Because there's no way he went to concussion protocol.
• 45:32
  They're like, you're good, man, and then send him back out there, and he's out for concussion
• 45:37
  protocol, which That's amazing.
• 45:38
  The Vikings training staff and and some of the behind the scenes stuff on that maybe wouldn't
• 45:42
  surprise me a lot.
• 45:43
  But, yeah, losing Darisaw would would...
• 45:46
  So I I highly doubt he plays this week just because we got the bye week next week.
• 45:51
  I I think we can survive.
• 45:52
  Yeah.
• 45:53
  Yeah.
• 45:54
  Can can you survive one week and move on, get healthy over the bye?
• 46:00
  Hopefully, from the way KOC was talking today is he said Mason's gonna be back after the buy.
• 46:05
  Yeah.
• 46:05
  And that's what he said on McAfee.
• 46:07
  So he's not coming out on national TV and and putting that out there if they aren't a 100%
• 46:13
  confident that he's gonna make it back.
• 46:15
  So that...
• 46:16
  That's really exciting to kind of forecast that a little bit.
• 46:20
  You hope if it is the concussion protocol that it's only the one game and it's not a long
• 46:26
  standing thing.
• 46:27
  Thank god it's not a knee.
• 46:28
  Prayers up to Donovan Jackson.
• 46:30
  Love the young man.
• 46:31
  Love his mom too.
• 46:33
  I hope she still goes to the game.
• 46:35
  Missus Jackson is just a
• 46:36
  phenomenal days.
• 46:37
  Oh, man.
• 46:38
  She's a phenomenal woman.
• 46:39
  And and that's kind of...
• 46:40
  Barbara, you you kinda said it.
• 46:42
  Huber played good.
• 46:42
  You didn't hear a lot of trouble from that interior.
• 46:45
  Right?
• 46:46
  I think the the trouble was coming off of the edge with this.
• 46:49
  Like I said, I was driving for the first half and and three quarters of the game, so I wasn't
• 46:53
  really tuned in heavily to this.
• 46:55
  But it seemed like you you don't go out and have the fourth quarter that they do without
• 46:59
  guys stepping up and doing their jobs.
• 47:02
  Right?
• 47:02
  So you have them that are serviceable now.
• 47:06
  Can they keep it rolling and everybody just slot in where they need to and keep, you know,
• 47:11
  keep this thing rolling?
• 47:13
  That's a good question.
• 47:14
  Can we keep it rolling?
• 47:15
  Can we survive?
• 47:17
  You know, that was a key keyword you mentioned a little bit ago.
• 47:21
  You know, with Justin Jefferson unavailable, Addison had to become that number one perimeter
• 47:26
  threat.
• 47:27
  Four catches, 52 yards.
• 47:30
  I mean, late in the game, he had that 27 yard completion that helped, on the final drive.
• 47:37
  But can Jordan Addison be the number one receiver if Justin Jefferson misses extended
• 47:42
  time?
• 47:43
  Give me your thoughts.
• 47:44
  No.
• 47:45
  Oh, I thought you were at direct look.
• 47:46
  No.
• 47:47
  I've said it repeatedly.
• 47:48
  He's not a number one wide receiver.
• 47:50
  I've said that I don't know that he's really a great number two wide receiver.
• 47:55
  I think that he's a really great...
• 47:56
  If he's slotted into wide receiver three and is your gadget, you you know, what they call an
• 48:02
  adjuster, some offensive guys call him, I think that's his prime position.
• 48:07
  But, you know, a lot of Vikings fans don't wanna hear that.
• 48:11
  I think if you had...
• 48:12
  And it's not Juwan Jennings.
• 48:13
  Juwan Jennings is kind of a glorified tight end that's at a wide receiver position.
• 48:18
  He's not gonna go out.
• 48:19
  He can't really get himself open either.
• 48:21
  Jordan Addison, if he's getting jammed at the line and they're taking the top away with a
• 48:25
  three deep look, he's not gonna get the ball.
• 48:28
  And he's gonna have games like he had now where he catches a few balls, he's never gonna be
• 48:33
  that number one guy.
• 48:35
  I would love to see us in this draft as deep as it is and with as many picks as we have, go out
• 48:39
  and find another big bodied receiver.
• 48:41
  You're not gonna find another Justin Jefferson, but can you find a guy with that body type that
• 48:46
  JJ and Randy Moss can fucking coach up and have it be a two and really have that that kind of
• 48:53
  three deep again.
• 48:54
  Right?
• 48:54
  Having a a a Chris Carter and a Randy Moss esque matchup where just Addison's not...
• 48:59
  He's not that guy, man.
• 49:00
  He's not strong enough off the ball.
• 49:02
  He's just not big enough to really get himself off of the press man and to do that.
• 49:08
  And you've seen it for the last few weeks, and I know he had a decent game against the Bucks,
• 49:12
  a couple of big catches.
• 49:13
  But once they went to the too high safety look and took the...
• 49:16
  And we're like, no.
• 49:17
  We're gonna make you take everything underneath.
• 49:19
  He didn't get the ball.
• 49:20
  And...
• 49:21
  Because you can't...
• 49:22
  The problem is is that unlike Jefferson, Jefferson, you can layer a ball over a
• 49:26
  linebacker, and Justin can't catch it because he has this huge catch radius.
• 49:31
  When you layer that ball over the linebacker to Jordan Addison, it's over his head.
• 49:37
  Right?
• 49:38
  So it's not there.
• 49:40
  And and the one that got complete, Brev, that, you probably made some kind of squealing noise
• 49:45
  like a pig.
• 49:45
  I don't know Oh, yeah.
• 49:46
  Exactly what it sounded like.
• 49:48
  Mhmm.
• 49:48
  But that ball almost gets deflected by the defender in watching the replay.
• 49:54
  Right?
• 49:54
  Like, it doesn't go over the linebacker.
• 49:56
  It goes by that...
• 49:57
  Or DB or whatever that layer is.
• 49:59
  It kinda goes by them on a on a lateral side.
• 50:03
  Right?
• 50:03
  So, those are dangerous passes at the end of the day because those are the ones that get
• 50:08
  tipped up in the air.
• 50:09
  This team needs Justin Jefferson on the field to be the championship caliber.
• 50:14
  There's there's no help coming, that's on this team right now.
• 50:18
  Because every other receiver you have below that, Miles Price, Ty Felton, they're all kind
• 50:22
  of in this smaller gadget player, type build.
• 50:26
  Well...
• 50:27
  And we're gonna we're gonna need the protection for that, and that's gonna start with this
• 50:31
  offensive line.
• 50:32
  I mean, we entered this game with the same starting offensive linemen for every snap the
• 50:37
  first three games, and Miami started taking pieces away.
• 50:41
  Donna Jackson with that, left, with that knee injury.
• 50:45
  We already spoke about Darasol with that neck injury, and then going into concussion
• 50:51
  evaluation.
• 50:52
  And, I mean, maybe I was bad luck mentioning the fact that we have...
• 50:56
  You know, Miami hadn't got a sack because they came after us and got that real quick first
• 51:01
  play of the game.
• 51:02
  So do you guys think the Vikings offensive line is becoming the biggest threat to the
• 51:08
  offensive's development?
• 51:12
  I think it is.
• 51:13
  I mean, I think the offensive line has always been...
• 51:16
  Had its issues as much as we wanna think that we got a good offensive line.
• 51:20
  I mean, we're not moved away from a few years ago when we started how many different
• 51:26
  combinations on the offensive line.
• 51:28
  I mean
• 51:28
  Oh, that was last year, and it was, like, 50 something, wasn't it, Brad?
• 51:31
  You probably know the stat.
• 51:33
  It was Yeah.
• 51:33
  So it's one of those things where, I mean, old school football still is a big part of today's
• 51:39
  game.
• 51:40
  You gotta build that office line.
• 51:42
  Gotta build that defense line.
• 51:43
  You gotta win the line of scrimmage.
• 51:44
  You're gonna win the game.
• 51:46
  And right now, the Vikings got that on the defensive side.
• 51:49
  Now we need it on the offensive side where we got the big boys up there that can stay
• 51:54
  healthy, open up holes, give the quarterback time, give the running back time to do his
• 51:58
  thing, and the play develops.
• 52:01
  I I do think that the offensive line is one a of our issues.
• 52:08
  Yeah.
• 52:09
  No.
• 52:09
  It's Will Fry's Will Fry's is a big part of that too, and O'Neil on the right side.
• 52:15
  And and, you know, Skull, you kinda mentioned O'Neil in there, and I I think that's the
• 52:21
  tandem.
• 52:22
  Right?
• 52:22
  Like, Fry's just hasn't been good enough.
• 52:25
  Shout out to Blake Brandle who, besides playing center last year at the end of the year, kind
• 52:31
  of an emergency status.
• 52:32
  Turn out.
• 52:33
  And then getting his first time starting in that role and and kinda stepping into it.
• 52:37
  I mean, shout out to the guy who's been doing an excellent job, I think, kind of anchoring
• 52:42
  that offensive line.
• 52:44
  But, yeah, it's weird that the...
• 52:46
  You know, your mister Viking, Brian O'Neil, and his cohort on the right side, Will Fries, have
• 52:52
  kind of been the weak spot of this team and where a lot of your pressure and, you know, the
• 52:57
  the problems are coming that are creating the sacks or the poor running game.
• 53:03
  Yeah.
• 53:03
  And now that now that the bad man is gone and JJ McCarthy's off my favorite football team,
• 53:08
  not only was he one of the biggest deciding factors of if I'm gonna cry at night after a
• 53:14
  football game.
• 53:15
  Now that he's gone, the offensive line might be that because the the side of your line that's
• 53:20
  getting injured...
• 53:21
  And it goes without saying that offensive, like, trench play is probably the most
• 53:24
  important phase of the game.
• 53:26
  And I'm a 26 year old man admitting that.
• 53:28
  So if they get some respect for that in the in the chat, it's not all about the big plays.
• 53:31
  But, the left side of the line, like, were elite.
• 53:35
  That was your good side of the line.
• 53:37
  They're like, Will Fry's has been...
• 53:39
  Will Fry...
• 53:40
  Oh my god.
• 53:40
  Will Fry sucks.
• 53:42
  And, thankfully, you can get out of that contract very easily, not not too badly scathed
• 53:48
  after the season.
• 53:49
  But, Brian O'Neil, he's like, he's been fine.
• 53:51
  He was getting beat bad by Chop Robinson last Sunday, but Chop is just a dog.
• 53:55
  I loved him come out of his draft class.
• 53:57
  But now that the left side is down, it's like, oh, man.
• 54:02
  Thank god Kyler's mobile, I guess.
• 54:04
  Because if you're in here with a with a Carson Wentz or a Kirk Cousins, that's where I'm,
• 54:09
  like, really scared.
• 54:10
  But...
• 54:11
  Yeah.
• 54:11
  I mean, it has to be it has to be the biggest determining factor now.
• 54:17
  Yeah.
• 54:17
  And that's an interesting question too, e, be...
• 54:20
  Because are they middle middle of the pack?
• 54:22
  And they might be.
• 54:23
  Don't...
• 54:23
  You know, offensive line rankings being kinda tough to narrow down, and, obviously, are are
• 54:30
  fucking high with their rankings.
• 54:32
  After they gave Dallas Turner the 40 or whatever for the bears game, I I don't pay any
• 54:37
  attention to them.
• 54:38
  I didn't anyway, but that's beside the point.
• 54:40
  Recording the data.
• 54:41
  Yeah.
• 54:42
  Fig, I I don't think you're wrong there.
• 54:44
  I think that Nolan Teasley has probably seen enough already.
• 54:47
  He might not be in that position later this year.
• 54:50
  I I think that they're pretty happy with Huber stepping in at guard.
• 54:54
  Right?
• 54:54
  Huber was playing the guard spot and then who was outside at the tackle, which you think
• 54:59
  you're gonna get Darisov back anyway.
• 55:00
  So you're not too worried about that.
• 55:02
  But, yeah, Huber is stepping in and being your starting left guard, and I think they're
• 55:06
  probably pretty happy with that.
• 55:07
  Where...
• 55:08
  Can you get a depth guy off a practice squad?
• 55:11
  Right?
• 55:11
  Can you get somebody that can fill into those, you know, underneath?
• 55:15
  You're not gonna go out and pull a starting guard off of anyone's team right now.
• 55:18
  Right.
• 55:19
  You're not getting that caliber of a player.
• 55:21
  So it it...
• 55:22
  It'll be interesting to see what's done.
• 55:24
  You have to imagine that they're gonna get someone just because they were already a little
• 55:29
  thin at interior offensive line to begin with.
• 55:33
  And I think actually that you have more...
• 55:35
  I think you actually have better center depth and then, like, move Brandel over.
• 55:39
  And I kinda heard early in the season, and it and it might have even been in the preseason
• 55:45
  that, you know, Judd over on...
• 55:47
  Judd Zolgad Purple Daily had kinda mentioned something of that is that if you have problems
• 55:52
  inside, do you move...
• 55:53
  Brandell's been playing so good at center that you hate to mess with a a good thing, but, you
• 55:57
  kinda cross those bridges when you have to.
• 55:59
  I think Huber will be fine, and you just kinda gotta roll with what you got.
• 56:04
  Well, and someone had mentioned that, they didn't hear Hubert's name a lot.
• 56:09
  And that's a good thing if you're offensive lineman.
• 56:11
  If don't hear the dude's name a lot, that's a good thing.
• 56:14
  If you don't hear offensive lineman's names and cornerback's names, they're playing well.
• 56:19
  Yes.
• 56:20
  Yes.
• 56:20
  And to, to give you some
• 56:22
  know it.
• 56:23
  Yeah.
• 56:23
  To give you some stats here, Bubba, some non stats to kinda paint a picture of this
• 56:28
  offensive line, time to pressure the Vikings rank twenty second in the NFL.
• 56:33
  Vikings quarterbacks are pressured at the sixteenth, most often in the NFL, despite being
• 56:40
  blitzed the seventh most often in the NFL.
• 56:42
  So they're they're right there around middle of the pack.
• 56:45
  Yeah.
• 56:45
  And and picking up the blitz.
• 56:47
  And that's why a lot of people in a few of the games, the...
• 56:49
  I heard people dogging on the offensive line with the the Bucks game.
• 56:55
  And, I mean, the Bears game was just a fishbowl, so I kinda wiped that one
• 56:58
  Yeah.
• 56:58
  Off.
• 56:58
  I thought the offensive line played pretty well against the Bucks.
• 57:02
  Got beat on some, but that's, like, the nature of the game.
• 57:05
  I thought they play well.
• 57:06
  I thought that Kyler was holding on to the ball too long and that he wasn't being decisive, and
• 57:10
  I thought that was more of kinda making your offensive line look worse than they were.
• 57:14
  He was getting an average, like, four and a half seconds, I think, in that Bucks game.
• 57:18
  So, yeah, they're looking good.
• 57:20
  The the the Donovan...
• 57:22
  You can't understate the Donovan Jackson loss.
• 57:24
  It's hard to replace someone of that caliber that that can move like he does at the size
• 57:29
  that he does and just really be an anchor in the, you know, in the pass game as well.
• 57:34
  But if you can get competent and maybe a little bit better than that out of Huber, I don't
• 57:41
  think you take too much of a hit.
• 57:42
  And a great thing that Barber just kinda brought up, if the goal has kinda been to get
• 57:49
  Kyler comfortable and now he's starting to feel that way, you see KOC changing the playbook and
• 57:54
  the play calls in the fourth quarter there.
• 57:57
  Are we gonna let him do there?
• 57:58
  I I don't know how many I don't know how many, like, called runs and RPOs that they're gonna
• 58:04
  do, especially with the concussion early in the year.
• 58:06
  You don't wanna put them in danger, but a little bit more of the sprint out or rollouts,
• 58:12
  I'm okay with that.
• 58:14
  Even if it, you know, maybe isn't what you want to do and isn't one a on your list of ways that
• 58:20
  you wanna do it, you have to do what's working for your team.
• 58:24
  And and I think we were all begging for that last year when when JJ McCarthy was the
• 58:29
  starting quarterback of this team.
• 58:31
  Like, hey.
• 58:31
  Do what the fucking kid can do well.
• 58:33
  Will you do that?
• 58:34
  And now do it for the other guy that you brought in and kinda hand selected, and don't
• 58:40
  be stubborn in what you, you know, want to do.
• 58:43
  It's okay.
• 58:44
  Find ways in that pistol to run the ball effectively and and do something.
• 58:50
  As long as the the run can still be a threat, the play action is gonna be open, and you're
• 58:55
  gonna be able to hit these 15 to 20 yard chunk plays.
• 58:58
  I'd say the forty, fifty yard chunks probably aren't coming.
• 59:02
  That's just not in this game unless it's Yak.
• 59:04
  But you're gonna do very well and put yourself in a position to win a lot of football games.
• 59:14
  Agreed.
• 59:15
  Yeah.
• 59:15
  No.
• 59:15
  How about this defense, though?
• 59:18
  How about how about the special teams?
• 59:20
  Yeah.
• 59:20
  We haven't even talked about special teams yet.
• 59:22
  They're almost better.
• 59:23
  They they might be...
• 59:24
  So my...
• 59:25
  Going into week four, Miles Price is leading the NFL in in all purpose yards, return yards,
• 59:30
  offensive...
• 59:31
  Obviously, it's all from return yards.
• 59:32
  Now he's third behind Bishan Robinson and Kenneth Walker.
• 59:36
  That...
• 59:36
  That's pretty...
• 59:37
  They're...
• 59:37
  Those two guys are pretty good last time I heard.
• 59:39
  Yeah.
• 59:40
  That's per sources, though.
• 59:43
  Well, I mean, right now, you got the MVP of the league with Will Riker kicking field goals from
• 59:49
  17 blocks away from the stadium and and nailing them.
• 59:52
  So
• 59:53
  He was at the tailgate.
• 59:54
  We we saw him.
• 59:55
  He was...
• 59:55
  When he was warming up, he was at nine zero three Yep.
• 59:58
  Kicking from there, the...
• 1:00:00
  Every single one of them, through the uprights, and he had to attack them sideways.
• 1:00:03
  I don't know how he does it.
• 1:00:04
  Guy's amazing.
• 1:00:06
  Yeah.
• 1:00:06
  I know.
• 1:00:07
  I made him over the roof.
• 1:00:08
  Five for five on field goals.
• 1:00:11
  47, 50 yards, 31...
• 1:00:13
  33, 41, 29, 15 points all by himself.
• 1:00:18
  I mean, I I don't wanna speak too much on it.
• 1:00:21
  I told you guys before this, but, I mean, 30...
• 1:00:26
  Whatever.
• 1:00:28
  I'm gonna do it anyway.
• 1:00:29
  You guys can attack me later.
• 1:00:30
  31 consecutive field goals.
• 1:00:32
  Alright?
• 1:00:33
  The second longest streak in Vikings history behind Gary Anderson's 35.
• 1:00:39
  I'm knocking the wood for you.
• 1:00:40
  You said you didn't have wood around me.
• 1:00:41
  I I got you.
• 1:00:42
  I got you.
• 1:00:44
  So I love that he's got a little bit of swag, and this man's been trained for it.
• 1:00:48
  They were talking...
• 1:00:50
  And I...
• 1:00:50
  Actually, I think it was Brevi.
• 1:00:52
  It might have been your boy, Harmon, on their show where they were talking about, like, he
• 1:00:58
  used to do kicking camps, and, like, he's a robot.
• 1:01:01
  Right?
• 1:01:01
  He is a kicking robot.
• 1:01:03
  He's been trained to do this since he was a teenager.
• 1:01:06
  I love that he's got the little swag with the mellow kinda three against the head, and I love
• 1:01:12
  that, man.
• 1:01:12
  The guy kicked at one of the biggest schools in...
• 1:01:15
  The biggest school.
• 1:01:16
  Right?
• 1:01:17
  The biggest football school.
• 1:01:18
  A stadium fits what?
• 1:01:19
  Way of roll tide down there, 80,000 in that stadium.
• 1:01:22
  Like, you can't put enough...
• 1:01:25
  You can't put pressure on him, and that's pretty pretty incredible to have someone like
• 1:01:31
  that.
• 1:01:31
  And and the stats just keep on rolling.
• 1:01:33
  Right?
• 1:01:33
  80 plus percent over 50 yards.
• 1:01:36
  Right?
• 1:01:36
  Like, I'm serious.
• 1:01:37
  When I say you literally gotta get across the 50 and you're like, if we had to kick this, we
• 1:01:43
  would put him out there and give it a chance.
• 1:01:45
  Right?
• 1:01:45
  Like, if it was the last second to win the game and you had only gotten to the 45 and it's...
• 1:01:52
  We're either hail marrying it down into the end zone or we're kicking the field goal, I think
• 1:01:57
  you're kicking the 70 plus yarder
• 1:02:00
  Oh, yeah.
• 1:02:00
  And saying, hey, man.
• 1:02:01
  We trust our guy to get it done.
• 1:02:03
  You wouldn't go back to that flashback of, Kyler Murray.
• 1:02:07
  He's like, fuck it.
• 1:02:08
  Hopkins is down there somewhere.
• 1:02:10
  You know what I'm saying?
• 1:02:11
  Like...
• 1:02:12
  Yeah.
• 1:02:12
  No.
• 1:02:13
  I'm right there with you.
• 1:02:15
  I've...
• 1:02:15
  I've...
• 1:02:16
  I firmly believe that Will Reichard is becoming one of the most important players on this
• 1:02:21
  football team.
• 1:02:22
  We're not four and o without him.
• 1:02:23
  That's just facts.
• 1:02:24
  I know the interview I heard...
• 1:02:27
  I think he was on K fan yesterday or, you know, might have been after the game.
• 1:02:32
  They're talking to him, and he said that when he was going through the rookie stuff and
• 1:02:37
  everything, the Vikings coaching staff said that the ball sounded different.
• 1:02:42
  The pop on the ball when he was kicking sounded so different than any other kicker that they
• 1:02:48
  knew they needed him on the team.
• 1:02:51
  So it was something with his kicking.
• 1:02:53
  So props to them.
• 1:02:54
  They finally got something right out of the draft.
• 1:02:57
  Hey.
• 1:02:58
  Hey, man.
• 1:02:59
  You Dallas Turner.
• 1:03:00
  What?
• 1:03:00
  Did Dallas have all nine sacks now?
• 1:03:03
  What is he up to?
• 1:03:03
  Six?
• 1:03:04
  Seven?
• 1:03:05
  Five and a half.
• 1:03:05
  Half.
• 1:03:06
  Five
• 1:03:06
  Five and a half?
• 1:03:07
  Would he have three yesterday or Sunday?
• 1:03:10
  I think he had one.
• 1:03:12
  I was
• 1:03:12
  I think he had 10 Sunday.
• 1:03:16
  He's second in the NFL Regardless.
• 1:03:18
  Sacks.
• 1:03:18
  The the disruption that he causes, five and a half, Fig says.
• 1:03:22
  Yeah.
• 1:03:22
  It it feels like it could be double that, right, with the pressures and ones that have
• 1:03:26
  got away.
• 1:03:27
  Yeah.
• 1:03:28
  You know, what I what I saw that I love the most is the way that he played against Caleb
• 1:03:33
  Williams.
• 1:03:34
  The way that he was breaking down and not losing his contain and not going for the big
• 1:03:39
  hit, knowing the player, that's a sign of maturity out of a very young talented man, and,
• 1:03:45
  it...
• 1:03:45
  It's pretty insane, to watch him go out there.
• 1:03:48
  So five and a half through...
• 1:03:50
  So he's on pace for eighteen, nineteen sacks this year?
• 1:03:54
  Two sacks.
• 1:03:56
  You know, the pressures, that's cool, but let's...
• 1:03:59
  The three tackles, that's all cool too, but let's not forget that forced fumble.
• 1:04:04
  That was impressive.
• 1:04:05
  He pressured Willis from behind, knocked the ball loose.
• 1:04:08
  Blake Cashman comes up with the recovery that was initially ruled incomplete.
• 1:04:12
  We challenged it and won.
• 1:04:15
  It's He's coming up with plays all over the field.
• 1:04:19
  And not not only is Turner pressuring the court, which in my opinion, I think the first
• 1:04:24
  in pressures is more valuable than the the second in sacks because you're you're creating
• 1:04:27
  pressures for other people.
• 1:04:29
  So you're you're creating more than just what, you're actually getting as far as the sack
• 1:04:35
  total.
• 1:04:35
  He's got...
• 1:04:36
  He's leading the league in quick quarterback pressure, which is a pressure under two and a
• 1:04:39
  half seconds.
• 1:04:41
  And third place right behind him is Blake Cashman.
• 1:04:45
  Yeah.
• 1:04:45
  Yeah.
• 1:04:46
  It's it's insane.
• 1:04:47
  Breon Flores, if we're ever, like, in the same play...
• 1:04:51
  I'm on I'm on your side.
• 1:04:53
  Please don't do anything to me.
• 1:04:54
  Like, I'm scared of him.
• 1:04:55
  He's a he's a weirdo.
• 1:04:56
  He's a psychopath.
• 1:04:59
  Yeah.
• 1:05:00
  I mean, he had a great game too.
• 1:05:02
  Cashman, eight tackles, one QB hit.
• 1:05:04
  Like I've mentioned before, he got that fumble recovery.
• 1:05:07
  And, you know, this is just another example of what Brian Flores can create.
• 1:05:13
  It's not necessarily who's the star.
• 1:05:15
  It's who's going to make the play.
• 1:05:18
  You know?
• 1:05:19
  So this team is all about it.
• 1:05:22
  What you mentioned about Cashman is a product of what I was kind of alluding to earlier that
• 1:05:27
  this defensive line are doing their job this year.
• 1:05:31
  If they're not getting to the quarterback, they're soaking up the double teams with Big
• 1:05:34
  Citrus or it's Levi Drake Rodriguez or it's Jalen Redmond who's an absolute terror on that
• 1:05:40
  offensive line.
• 1:05:41
  And you have Caleb Banks who I think is just gonna continue to ascend as a player in this
• 1:05:47
  league that when you...
• 1:05:50
  When your front four are creating the pressure that they are, that when you send that extra
• 1:05:55
  linebacker or a a hitman off the edge or wherever it's coming from, it's getting home.
• 1:06:01
  It's no longer...
• 1:06:02
  Last year, we were sending that many guys and not getting home.
• 1:06:05
  And that's what kind of exposed this defense because you had these old ass dudes up front,
• 1:06:12
  and I can't even remember their names.
• 1:06:14
  I know they were good once, but they weren't good here.
• 1:06:16
  And, they they didn't do their job, which is to soak up the blockers so that your backers can
• 1:06:24
  get to the ball carrier and create that disruption.
• 1:06:27
  So it's Cool.
• 1:06:29
  Pretty
• 1:06:29
  And we're we're talking about Cashman, Turner, Van Gildengel, how can we overlook pace?
• 1:06:35
  You know?
• 1:06:35
  We got four linebackers that we have absolute confidence in, and he does it on special teams.
• 1:06:42
  He does it on on defense.
• 1:06:45
  You know, stars don't make the winning play.
• 1:06:47
  Sometimes it's the guy doing the dirty work.
• 1:06:50
  And like you said, the guys in the trenches taking on the double blocks, opening up lanes
• 1:06:55
  for these linebackers to just shoot on through.
• 1:06:58
  I mean, it's a it's a complementary defense that we're seeing.
• 1:07:03
  Let's, let's shift the conversation over to the game coming up here.
• 1:07:08
  We've been talking about a little bit in the chat.
• 1:07:10
  I've been with the guys over here almost as much as I've been with you guys on the screen,
• 1:07:14
  I feel like.
• 1:07:15
  But, you know, they they played last night.
• 1:07:17
  I didn't realize when the schedules came out that they were gonna be coming off a short
• 1:07:21
  week.
• 1:07:22
  I don't know how much difference that has, but it it makes a difference.
• 1:07:25
  Right?
• 1:07:25
  And, coach, you can maybe attest to an...
• 1:07:28
  One less day of rest and especially coming off a loss and kinda getting your ass handed to you
• 1:07:34
  on the ground like that from the defensive perspective.
• 1:07:37
  Does that have an effect, coach, kinda going into that next game without the extra day of
• 1:07:43
  recovery and...
• 1:07:45
  Which adjusts your practice schedule, I'm assuming as well?
• 1:07:48
  Yeah.
• 1:07:48
  It adjusts everything.
• 1:07:50
  The travel, you know, the walk throughs, the quick film sessions, you know, getting taped,
• 1:07:57
  everything.
• 1:07:58
  So, every day counts, honestly.
• 1:08:01
  Every day counts.
• 1:08:02
  You know, you can...
• 1:08:03
  I...
• 1:08:04
  Something as simple as a cold, head cold.
• 1:08:07
  You feel like trash one day, you wake up the next, and you're right back to it.
• 1:08:11
  It's that twenty four hours that can make all the difference.
• 1:08:16
  You know, we just saw them get absolutely torched, with the run game.
• 1:08:20
  Hopefully, that's a precursor to what we can do, but, you know, we do have those injuries,
• 1:08:27
  so we'll see.
• 1:08:28
  Never wanna overlook a football team because, like I said, we've been playing down a lot of
• 1:08:33
  competition.
• 1:08:34
  And the benefit that the saints have right now for this is that they were home Monday.
• 1:08:39
  They don't have to travel, so that's a plus for them.
• 1:08:42
  But, again, we're getting them off a short week, so they lose that extra day of practice
• 1:08:47
  like coach has saved.
• 1:08:49
  So
• 1:08:54
  Feels like a little bit advantage Vikings, which when the schedule come out, I had this
• 1:08:58
  one as, like, a tough game.
• 1:09:00
  Mhmm.
• 1:09:01
  That was kind of the deciding factor.
• 1:09:03
  I did not think this team was gonna be four and o.
• 1:09:05
  I thought it was, like, there was a 1% chance that we would be where we are right now without
• 1:09:10
  a loss in the column.
• 1:09:11
  I thought that either Green Bay or Chicago would get us and felt coin tosses on the other
• 1:09:17
  ones.
• 1:09:18
  Right?
• 1:09:18
  It felt like every game to this point was a coin toss, and you very rarely win four in a
• 1:09:22
  row, right, or or three out of four on that.
• 1:09:25
  So it's...
• 1:09:27
  It seems like this one now, it's not gonna be an easy game by any means.
• 1:09:30
  I think the Saint team is a lot better than, even Miami.
• 1:09:34
  I think you are gonna have to score touchdowns.
• 1:09:36
  You're gonna have to move the ball down the field.
• 1:09:38
  You can't continue to trot your defense out there, and you can't rely on holding the ball
• 1:09:43
  the entire fourth quarter to give them a blow at the end there.
• 1:09:47
  Selly, you're usually kind of our guy, digs into the other teams as well.
• 1:09:51
  What do you got for us on this saints team and, what we can kind of expect for Sunday?
• 1:09:59
  Yeah.
• 1:09:59
  Explosive offense with Kellen Moore, so you never know what to expect.
• 1:10:04
  The defense, though, the last couple weeks gave up 45 last night to the falcons, 31 to the
• 1:10:10
  lions on opening day, and then 35 to the raiders.
• 1:10:13
  So the defense has been leaking oil a little bit.
• 1:10:16
  So this might be another another chance for Kyler and the offense to finally get going.
• 1:10:21
  Like you said, Justin might be back.
• 1:10:23
  He decided to be back in his hometown.
• 1:10:25
  And plus, I think it's just a matchup made for the Vikings with Tyler Shuck.
• 1:10:31
  As much as I like him, he's still a young QB.
• 1:10:33
  Hasn't really played a full season yet going up going up against the defense.
• 1:10:38
  Blitzing, I think I saw something, like, 80% of the time, if...
• 1:10:42
  Which is...
• 1:10:42
  If it's true, it's kinda crazy.
• 1:10:44
  So I think this is a pretty good matchup for the Vikings this week.
• 1:10:49
  And, Brev, you you may know this right off the top of your head, but doesn't Brian Flores have
• 1:10:55
  some kind of insane record against rookie and and, like, first and second year QBs?
• 1:11:02
  Yeah.
• 1:11:03
  I don't know the exact record off the top of my head, but it it might be fair to call Brian
• 1:11:07
  Flores a little bit of inexperienced quarterback merchant.
• 1:11:11
  Not to say he can't shut down.
• 1:11:13
  Like, we saw him beat Jared Goff last year when our offense had negative total net passing
• 1:11:19
  yards.
• 1:11:20
  So, yeah, he's gonna be gunning after tire showers
• 1:11:24
  for sure.
• 1:11:24
  Vikings fans.
• 1:11:25
  I remember that one.
• 1:11:26
  That was awesome.
• 1:11:27
  That was great.
• 1:11:28
  That was really cool.
• 1:11:29
  Yeah.
• 1:11:30
  We're blitzing, I think, at 67.9% of snaps, which is still astonishingly high.
• 1:11:36
  It's still 20% higher than the next highest team.
• 1:11:39
  I was an idiot.
• 1:11:41
  I never claimed to be a smart guy, but I was an idiot.
• 1:11:44
  And I didn't look at New Orleans rushing defense before last night when they played
• 1:11:49
  Bijan.
• 1:11:50
  So right now, New Orleans rush defense looks like they might as well have trashing, traffic
• 1:11:55
  cones out on the field in terms of the advanced analytics and everything.
• 1:11:59
  But in terms of their passing defense, if you're looking at a week for the Vikings to go
• 1:12:04
  off, I don't think it it was as bad going into, as Miami's was going into week four.
• 1:12:09
  And a lot of people won't say it.
• 1:12:10
  I think Miami just played a fine game defensively too last week.
• 1:12:14
  They're making good plays all over the field that won't show up in the box score.
• 1:12:17
  But, I think the saints are allowing, like, the fourth highest EPA per pass attempt to opposing
• 1:12:23
  offenses right now, which is a good kind of all encompassing stat to to judge teams off of.
• 1:12:28
  Not that there's a great stat right now because we're still such a short sample size, but, it
• 1:12:33
  it is advantage Vikings.
• 1:12:34
  And for any betters out there, only one and a point favorites.
• 1:12:38
  And as Fig mentioned, this game very well could not be happening in New Orleans because there's
• 1:12:43
  a hurricane developing in The Gulf.
• 1:12:45
  Funnily enough, if you haven't seen it right now, it's named tropical depression nine.
• 1:12:50
  So that's kind of poetic.
• 1:12:53
  So if it develops into a tropical storm or hurricane, we might be out of New Orleans going
• 1:12:58
  to Jacksonville or something because I think they're in, Europe next week or the...
• 1:13:02
  This coming week.
• 1:13:03
  So it it could just be a weird one all around.
• 1:13:06
  Well, I just want this offense to continue to grow and to, you know, show, show the growth.
• 1:13:14
  Yep.
• 1:13:15
  But right now, we're riding our defense 12.8 points per game, number one in the NFL, just
• 1:13:23
  shy of 290 yards a game allowed, 50 in in the NFL, and we only allowed four touchdowns in
• 1:13:30
  four games.
• 1:13:31
  This defense isn't just simply good.
• 1:13:34
  It's legitimately carrying a championship level load.
• 1:13:39
  And it's just...
• 1:13:41
  We got dogs, but how long can they hold out?
• 1:13:45
  Like, our offense needs to get going here.
• 1:13:48
  No.
• 1:13:49
  And, you know, Selly kinda pointed to the stat.
• 1:13:52
  Is this the game now that you've seen...
• 1:13:55
  Like I said, and I, you know, texted our guy rap after the game as I was driving and kinda
• 1:14:00
  like, I've seen signs of life now.
• 1:14:03
  The pulse is weak, but we've seen...
• 1:14:05
  So, like, you you you finally saw the body take a breath on its own, and you're like, oh, oh,
• 1:14:10
  maybe this is what KOC's been seeing and and talking about in the film room and things that
• 1:14:15
  don't show up on Sunday that he felt confident, you know, turning to Kyler very early and not
• 1:14:21
  just nine sucking, but also having a guy that's been in the league, knows what he's looking at,
• 1:14:27
  and just needed time to get it going.
• 1:14:29
  I think a lot of us forget, and myself included in that, that, Kyler Murray didn't play a lot
• 1:14:34
  of football last year.
• 1:14:35
  Right?
• 1:14:36
  So he's probably knocking some rust off as well and finding his rhythm.
• 1:14:40
  And if we can continue to ascend and the offense continues to get better, there's
• 1:14:45
  nothing wrong with playing your best football in January.
• 1:14:49
  Yeah.
• 1:14:50
  You know, we gotta cut...
• 1:14:52
  We definitely have to cut down on the penalties.
• 1:14:55
  11 penalties for 85 yards, eight of those coming on offense.
• 1:14:59
  We gotta figure out our third and long game.
• 1:15:03
  We were six for seven on, third and short, o for seven on third and long, and that's a huge
• 1:15:14
  you know, because, I mean, if penalties are putting us behind the sticks, third and long, o
• 1:15:20
  and seven, I don't like that.
• 1:15:23
  Let's see.
• 1:15:24
  I I wanna bring up the, fact that, you know, you said, you know, this could be a winning
• 1:15:31
  formula in January.
• 1:15:33
  But if the Vikings fall behind, maybe they're twenty four and ten.
• 1:15:38
  And if they don't score...
• 1:15:41
  Like, I don't know.
• 1:15:42
  I feel like this offense is gonna have to score 28 points after the bye weeks to get through
• 1:15:48
  that, gap that we have.
• 1:15:53
  No doubt.
• 1:15:54
  No doubt.
• 1:15:55
  Well, we've been on for over an hour, fellas.
• 1:15:58
  Brev, I really appreciate you jumping on, man.
• 1:16:01
  You're always welcome here.
• 1:16:02
  Love your insights.
• 1:16:03
  Love reading you as often as I can and getting, you know, your takes on everything.
• 1:16:09
  I know it's a big job that you do to have to come up with new takes, losing JJ for the rest
• 1:16:16
  of the season.
• 1:16:17
  That's gotta be really hard on you writers.
• 1:16:19
  I wanna respect that.
• 1:16:21
  B, any kind of closing thoughts here?
• 1:16:24
  I know you're probably, like, the most down person in the room right now with this team,
• 1:16:30
  but I'm telling you, I I think you have reasons to to feel okay.
• 1:16:35
  No.
• 1:16:35
  I mean, four and o is definitely okay.
• 1:16:38
  You know, you know, the the scoring on the offensive side, it is hard to choke down some.
• 1:16:46
  But, again, that fourth quarter, the last drive shows a promise.
• 1:16:52
  If they keep growing...
• 1:16:53
  Just like we said at the beginning of this year, the defense has to grow on what they did
• 1:16:57
  last year.
• 1:16:57
  They they came on.
• 1:16:58
  They won the last four or five games.
• 1:17:01
  They need to keep going.
• 1:17:03
  That's what the office needs to do.
• 1:17:04
  Kyle Murray needs to keep improving.
• 1:17:06
  Danny didn't play much last year.
• 1:17:09
  So, hopefully, that fourth quarter was a sign that it's finally clicking for him, and we get
• 1:17:14
  to move forward against the saves, get the bye week to work on it more, and we come out
• 1:17:20
  against the lines at division game.
• 1:17:22
  And we show them that we are a complete team, that we're not a joke at four and o five and o
• 1:17:27
  four and...
• 1:17:27
  Well, whatever we do when we come out of that bye week.
• 1:17:32
  Coach?
• 1:17:34
  Yep.
• 1:17:34
  Alright, fellas.
• 1:17:35
  I gotta get going, but I just wanted to say thank you, for Sally and, Brevi for joining us.
• 1:17:43
  It's always a great time, man.
• 1:17:45
  You guys have a great rest of your night.
• 1:17:47
  Hey.
• 1:17:48
  Shout out to the gophers, man.
• 1:17:49
  Huge win last weekend.
• 1:17:51
  A couple of them in a row.
• 1:17:53
  Let's let's make some noise up there in Minnesota for those golden gophers.
• 1:17:57
  Yes, sir.
• 1:17:58
  Yes, sir.
• 1:17:59
  Mhmm.
• 1:17:59
  Later.
• 1:18:01
  See you, coach.
• 1:18:03
  Selly, excited about tomorrow.
• 1:18:05
  We get to talk some NBA.
• 1:18:08
  We got our new show, the rim report.
• 1:18:10
  We're gonna do every Wednesday at 7PM central, 08:00 for you East Coast guys out there.
• 1:18:16
  Brev is out on the East Coast with you too, Sully.
• 1:18:18
  I don't know as the crow flies how far you guys are.
• 1:18:20
  Where are you at?
• 1:18:21
  West Virginia, Brev?
• 1:18:23
  Virginia, like, thirty minutes west of Richmond.
• 1:18:28
  Yeah.
• 1:18:28
  It's not too far away from me, honestly.
• 1:18:31
  Where where
• 1:18:32
  are you at?
• 1:18:33
  I'm in Jersey.
• 1:18:35
  Oh, okay.
• 1:18:35
  Yeah.
• 1:18:36
  Like a five hour drive maybe.
• 1:18:38
  Yeah.
• 1:18:38
  Yep.
• 1:18:39
  Barbara tapped in with us for the basketball show on Wednesday.
• 1:18:43
  We had some goat discussions of which there's, of course, no discussion whatsoever.
• 1:18:47
  It's MJ all day.
• 1:18:50
  Right.
• 1:18:50
  It's a great time.
• 1:18:51
  So you guys, if you're wanna talk some basketball with us, NBA season starting to get
• 1:18:56
  going.
