LOL  and have you seen the interview with Kook yet?  He says he may get a plexiglass enclosure to sit in whilst they have meetings.  What an idiot.  Hence the new name for him, now it is Kook Cousins.  It fits him to a T. 

[Rebel SS]

The ViQueens sure provide entertainment for me during football season!!!!! 23 years now a Bucs fan.......

Cant get tue channel

[mike89]

last I heard they were behind, didn't watch it...

They got whipped pretty bad. Listened to a little bit on the radio while working outside. Heard Zimmer’s half time interview. He sounded really grouchy. Responded to the questions by rattling off about 6 problems they had and ended with a crabby “other than that…….”  Paul Allen said it was like “Other than that Mrs Lincoln, how did you like the play?”Didn’t really play any of the starters, at least not any of the skill positions or big names. Sounds like Bridgewater had a pretty good day.

[LPS]

Browning didn't play very long.  They said Mond would not be playing at all since he only had about 3 days of practice since he got Covid.  Well they put him in and then the wifi started fading out at the campground so I want to see the second half replay.

If you went out to your closest corn field and watched the corn grow in this heat it would be far more entertaining than anything you can see in a NFL pre-season money grab game.

Watch it and they will come...

[glenn57]

  i know its only preseason........but i cant watch the vikings anymore tonight.......... that browning kid as QB has a lot to be desired................

[Boar]

I.watcjed for 10.minuets and couldnt belive that was the vikes....owait yes i did..

[Boar]

Man, what doae it tell you wen they go 89 yrds and cant get it in....

[glenn57]

when i watched the news last night i was actually surprised of the final score.....28-25. but hen maybe KC played the cheerleaders at the end???????

[LPS]

I almost gave up on them but at the end they were moving the ball pretty good.  Sure hope Mond turns into a good QB so we can dump Quirk next year.  I am so tired of his style of everything. 

[glenn57]

Sure was fun watching Mahomes those first 2 series!!! Everything they teach you as a kid not to do he does and makes it look so easy

[Boar]

They got lucky on thay last inyerception, prior to it theyove the ball 89 yrds and couldnt put it in when it matterd.

Ain't that the truth.  *sigh* 

[Steve-o]

K, so its Patriots news, but I'm goona put this one on the Vikings thread, cause it will probably end up fitting here.

The Patriots just released Cam Newton.

Mac Jones, who the Vikings could have drafted at 14, is now the Patriots starting QB.  (You think that won't come back to haunt 'dem Viqueens? )   I digress.

Still, the Vikes need a backup QB and Cam needs a job.  Here we go. 

[Boar]

Vikes need to pick up newton!

[Steve-o]

Potential for Vikings version of The Odd Couple...




I do like the idea of having someone behind Kirk who will push him.

[Steve-o]

"The Minnesota Vikings got some unfortunate news after hearing about the injury of starting tight end Irv Smith Jr., who is expected to be out for quite some time. Well, the Vikings did something to address that on Tuesday."

Jets trade Chris Herndon to Vikings after Irv Smith Jr. injury/

[dutchboy]

Cam can't play, he's done.

[mike89]

they traded for a tight end today..

[fishwidow]

Cam can't play, he's done.

I tend to agree with that. He looked really good the first few years, and well into the middle of his career.   I think those days are behind him. Aside from that, I really don’t like his attitude. Sore loser and showboat winner.

[Steve-o]

This team has zero depth and we know who is getting the lion's share of the salary cap.

if Zim/Spielman retain their jobs going forward, I hope they have learned their lesson for paying top dollar for the best free agent available.  That seems to be an obsolete formula for winning.

But what do I know. 

[LPS]

There aren't very many Vikes fans that would like Cam on our team..

[Boar]

Lol i know, i said that cause vikes always pick up the left overs of something that coulda been or once was
