***2026 Minnesota Vikings***

Guessing KOC wanted Darnold back. All the internal fighting that we hear rumblings about.

Sure, Rob Bzezinski is now ‘in charge’ but does this mean that KOC will now be the real decision maker on the scouts draft evaluations?

Sounds like KOC didn’t want McCarthy. Vikings definitely will be getting a new QB this offseason.

Yeah, I think we have seen the last of McCarthy on the field for the Vikings, unless he comes in as a backup. I bet they make a major play to trade for a starter.

I don't 100% believe that. It's awfully convenient for him to come out and claim that since KAM can't argue back at this point. KOC is under pressure to keep his job too, so I think this is simply some public angling by him.

Agreed.

Ownership made a decision, somebody was heading out the door. The head coach got to stay. So he needs to look better, or out you go.

I don’t think KOC and Kwesi saw eye to eye on a lot of things

Vets on the team wanna make a run now. And now meaning next season. Kwesi threw his chips on jmac. Timing wasn’t right. KOC wanted a proven vet to run his offense correctly. It’s all making sense now. They are getting a proven vet this offseason.

 

[Marcelason78]

So do Burrow rumors begin to heat up?

 

[CYISFLY]

Will they have enough cap to make a deal for Burrow? That seems to be one of the ideas floating around I guess Cincy would have to want to do a deal in the first place

Next up on "Life as a Vikings fan": the org trades away 3 firsts, 4 other picks, 2 players and cuts 3 more starters for cap reasons to bring in an injury-prone QB who will miss 8-10 games every season in Minnesota due to not having an OL around him (and not being able to pay for one, either)

 

[AuH2O]

Getting some Herschel Walker trade vibes here.

 

[Al_4_State]

The old boss is a **** until you meet the new one.

(This is not a defense of Kwesi, his insistence on JJMac and general draft ineptitude was completely fireable. Just an observation about how the Vikings will always make the wrong decision).

 

[cytor]

Hard Pass.

Then the Bengals win the super bowl in a couple years

Nothing like this has ever happened before with the Vikings, I don’t know what you’re talking about

On the other hand, this could lay the groundwork for a Bengals dynasty
