With the NFC West sending three teams to the playoffs, the conference appears to run through them. However, the NFC North looked just as strong a year ago, only to flame out once January arrived. Could the NFC West be headed towards a similar fate? In 2024, the Detroit Lions and Minnesota Vikings went into […]

Even though he was not named to the Pro Bowl Games for reasons beyond the realm of my comprehension, Minnesota Vikings kicker Will Reichard did garner some recognition that no member of the franchise has gotten in quite a while. It has just been announced that Reichard has been named the NFC’s Special Teams Player […]

Coaches are getting let go quickly. Several of the candidates could be possible replacements for Brian Flores should he go elsewhere. Jonathan Gannon might be nice. Who do you like if Flores leaves? The QB situation is, once again, unsettled and some would say a mess. I will always remain hopeful. Minnesota Vikings News and […]

We’re staring down the barrel of just the third ever Green Bay Packers-Chicago Bears playoff game in NFL history, and the Packers just played their junior varsity unit against the Minnesota Vikings. Generally, I don’t want to write too much about Green Bay’s Week 18 effort, but we should mention that seven players made their […]

The Green Bay Packers announced on Tuesday that the team has released backup quarterback Clayton Tune, who had -7 net passing yards against the Minnesota Vikings in a Week 18 regular-season finale that almost exclusively saw the Packers’ backup players receive playing time. Earlier on Tuesday, Packers head coach Matt LaFleur admitted that starting quarterback […]

Well, it looks like this offseason will be another fantastic debate about the QB position. It has already started with folks settling into their respective camps and very very few willing to change their position (er., mind). I’m not sure what the team is actually going to do but if the people in charge want […]

The Minnesota Vikings season has come to an end. It’s a season that ended on a five-game win streak that feels a little superficial. The results weren’t what the team wanted. Coming off a 14-3 season, a 5 win drop is always going to be disappointing. J.J. McCarthy missed more games and the QB position […]

It may be the most obvious and defining statement about the Minnesota Vikings’ 2025 season, but it’s worth saying loud and clear: letting Sam Darnold go was a massive blunder by Kevin O’Connell and the Vikings’ Front Office. Yes, it’s a whole lot easier to make that assessment with the benefit of hindsight, but looking […]

When Drake Maye first invited his teammates to North Carolina for an offseason workout, he wasn’t sure if four-time Pro Bowler Stefon Diggs would show up. But Diggs, who was also working back from an ACL tear, arrived for a weekend of work, beginning the process of building chemistry with his new quarterback — and […]

The Green Bay Packers were slotted into the seven seed in the NFC before Week 18 begins. None of the outcomes will change that. More importantly for Packers fans, though, will be who Green Bay plays as the two seed. That was wide open with a few different teams able to set up shop there. […]

In his post-game press conference, Green Bay Packers head coach said that he believes that safety Javon Bullard will be “okay” following a knee injury that knocked him out against the Minnesota Vikings. Bullard was forced into the lineup throughout the game due to the limited bodies that the Packers were able to sit on […]

THE GAME IS OVER; YOU CAN ALL WAKE UP NOW. The regular season is officially over for the 9-7-1 Green Bay Packers after a 16-3 loss to the Minnesota Vikings. It was a snooze-fest of a game, as the majority of starters sat in preparation for the playoffs next week. Folks, this is going to […]

If you were hoping to see the Green Bay Packers’ backups play well on Sunday’s regular-season finale, hopefully you did not watch the team’s game against the Minnesota Vikings this afternoon. Clayton Tune and the Green Bay offense put up just 121 yards of total offense against the Vikings, the fewest in a single game […]

If you put together a football game between two teams that didn’t have a whole lot to play for in their final regular season contest, it would probably look a lot like what the Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers did at U.S. Bank Stadium on Sunday afternoon. J.J. McCarthy left after one second half […]

They’re heading into the locker rooms at U.S. Bank Stadium for halftime of the regular season finale, and your Minnesota Vikings lead the Green Bay Packers, 13-0. Both teams exchanged punts early on in the quarter, with Ryan Wright putting the Green Bay offense at their own 30-yard line. Not a banner offensive effort from […]

The final Sunday of the NFL’s 2025 regular season has arrived, bringing the Green Bay Packers an ultimately meaningless game against the Minnesota Vikings. The Packers are locked into the 7th seed in the NFC playoffs while the Vikings are out of the postseason, meaning this game is just for pride — and for the […]

We’re now a little less than ninety minutes away from kicking things off for the 2025 regular season finale between the Minnesota Vikings and the Green Bay Packers at U.S. Bank Stadium. Both teams have released their inactive lists for today’s game, so let’s take a look at who will be sitting this one out. […]

Well, well, well. Here we are again, J.J. McCarthy. The Minnesota Vikings are expected to start McCarthy at quarterback for today’s game against the Green Bay Packers after he missed his team’s last game, a win over the Detroit Lions on Christmas Day. That result was important for the Packers, who clinched a playoff spot […]
