Per Ben Goessling and Doogie. Good to see them back, fans going to lose their shit at U.S. Bank introducing the offense and Darrisaw, Thielen and McCarthy.

I find this study fascinating.  For the record, my position is that it's unquestionnable that a significant number of vaccines are excellent and it's indisputable that they have saved millions of lives.  As you also know, I don't put Covid-19 Vax in this category.  The real issues I have and where I agree with RFK Jr. is that it's not sacrilege to question the sheer number of different vaccines placed in a child during their first few years of life.

I don't see how this can't be questioned or looked at continuously.  The truth is that it has not under the equivalent punishment of a death sentence for a physicians medical license.   For the first time in years a doctor put out a study and low and behold, what did it find?

When Fauci told us to follow the science, it meant to follow his personal opinion and manipulated science, not what's really going on.  I am NOT for eliminating any critical vaccines and throwing a grenade to change past practices.  I am for taking much deeper looks into and validating or invalidating if these trends are true.  An honest conversation is something the CDC has avoided like the plague for years, and it's time for those to occur. The faux outrage of the left is spearheaded by big Pharma and the Senators they have in their hip pockets.  Work through the noise, and let's get to a solution that puts US children and our society in a more healthy place.  I don't know how everyone would not agree with this, but I'm sure some have been brainwashed to the point where this is just another Nazi tactic conjured up by Trump and company.

Everything changed Monday night in the fourth quarter.

And how did that quarter begin?

With two punishing Jordan Mason runs. He was exceptional. He was the bell cow, who, alongside Aaron Jones, lifts this running game in a significant way. 

Good watch with McAfee and Bruce Arians. I don't always love Pat's style, but he has some good takes sometimes and really good guests that give awesome insight: 

A road win in the division to kick off the season, sweet.....one at a time. 

• Watching Caleb Williams for 1.5 quarters to start and I was like 'holy shit'. He looked good. Super quick and elusive, like he was by far the best athlete on the field. I get why some GMs could get intoxicated with that, I really do. He was decisive. I was blown away in a way like 'shit, Johnson turned on the light bulb for him'. Vikings' defenders had him and then he was like magic in eluding them. Not good things to think when you hate the Bears. But we saw what happened eventually and he's what he was and will be. JMO, but he'll prove to be a bust. I think he's already down that path, ChicagoNation is gutted.
  
• Shout out to Will the Thrill, what a great kick on that 59 yarder and this was outside. Its different outside (especially Soldier Field on Lake Michigan) and having that 59 yarder tie for longest in Soldier Field history says it all. It changed my mood heading into halftime. JJ hitting Nailor and then Reichard nailing it felt like a momentum shift to me. The team got a lift.
  
• Bad toss on the Pick 6. That bothered me more than anything he had done in the first half. I felt it squashed a possible momentum swing and an 11 point lead felt huge at that point. The first half stuff didn't bother me, he looked poised and confident through the whole thing. But that throw did. 
  
• Back couldn't have been further against the wall. The haters were out in full force. The announcers sounded sorry for him. But I kept watching his face. Nothing but stoic determination and he didn't change one bit with his interaction with the team. Same guy. Focused. I didn't see any crisis of confidence at all, to the contrary actually. And the rest is history. He will make mistakes and then he will learn from them in the same game, almost real time. I mentioned this very fact in a thread 3 weeks ago and we all saw it. 
  
• Thank you Myles Price....no more worries on punt returns.
  
• Some drops from AT, Jefferson, etc. Odd.
  
• Very encouraged by the interiors of both lines. Both should incrementally improve each game.
  
• Jordan Mason is a beast.

  "Jordan Mason averaged 3.86 yards after contact last night, per @TruMediaSports. That's the highest a RB has posted in a game for the Vikings since head coach Kevin O'Connell got the job."
  
• Very interesting how KOC is going to use Aaron Jones, basically as a deep WRer sometimes. I love it. Mismatches galore for defenses. 
  
• Donovan Jackson, that's the stuff.
  
• We need Darrisaw back ASAP. Saying Skule is the weak link is an understatement.

These 2 QB's are kinda the talker for this week...

CHICAGO – One Vikings running back held court with media at least three separate times in the visitor’s locker room late Monday night at Soldier Field.

The other Vikings running back’s locker was emptied fast, and he exited to the team bus before being caught for comment on his big night.

One hauled in a pass for the longest touchdown of the game. The other led both teams in rushing yards as the Vikings beat the Bears 27-24.

Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason have distinct differences in their personalities and play styles, but both brought critical boosts to the Vikings offense in its comeback win over the Bears on Monday night.

The joint performance was one the Vikings envisioned when they acquired Mason via trade with the 49ers in March, as they added a rusher who could bring physicality and more evenly split reps with Jones in order to keep both fresh.

While the exact dynamic of the new tandem started to become clear in training camp, it entered full focus in their first game together: Jones, the multi-faceted threat able to be another set of reliable hands in the receiving game for young quarterback J.J. McCarthy, and Mason, the wrecking ball of a back who can and will destroy a defender or two for some extra yards.

“That boy’s a bruiser out there,” Jones said of Mason, who left the locker room quickly. “He’s not easy to take down. ... It’s definitely a blessing to play with a back like that — somebody to take a little bit of the load off of you as well.”

Mason’s first carry didn’t come until the Vikings’ third drive of the night, after they’d exited the field three-and-out twice before.

He popped off a pair of 6-yard pickups to move the chains for the Vikings for the first time. The Vikings closed the drive with a 31-yard field goal from Will Reichard.

Mason never broke free into an open field — his longest rushes were for 18 and 19 yards — but if he’d been given one, it’s hard to imagine he could’ve been stopped.

“It’s just so fun when you watch a guy run, and you’re like, ‘Oh, that’s not a tackle,’” McCarthy said postgame.

Mason finished with 15 carries for 68 yards. Jones carried eight times for 23 yards, and the Vikings’ remaining 29 rushing yards came predominantly from McCarthy.

Jones’ bigger contributions Monday came in the receiving game.

He caught all three of his targets, good for 44 yards, and the 27-yard touchdown that gave the Vikings their first lead in the fourth quarter, with 9:46 remaining.

The scoring route was one McCarthy and Jones executed successfully a few times throughout training camp; Jones breaks out of the backfield around right tackle Brian O’Neill and heads deep, slanting outside the numbers after about 10 yards up the field.

“We’ve been practicing,” Jones said. “It’s funny, after we ran it, [offensive coordinator] Wes [Phillips] goes, ‘That’s been in the queue. We’ve been practicing that one.’ And I’m like, ‘You’re 100% right.’ This shows you practice pays off, and I’m just glad they trusted me in that situation.”

Jones said the success of the play comes when head coach Kevin O’Connell decides to call it at just the right time. Jones lines up wide to go deep on some other plays, like the one that ended up drawing a 42-yard defensive pass interference on Bears safety Nahshon Wright in the first half. It’s starting the play in the backfield that throws defenders off. Typically, he runs an out-breaking or flat route if he’s not at the line for the snap.

McCarthy said he wished he dropped it more in stride for Jones so he hadn’t needed to turn away from the defender to score.

Over at least the next two weeks, as No. 2 receiver Jordan Addison remains out because of suspension, the Vikings are likely to call on Jones to have a heavier presence in the receiving game.

They did so last year while Addison was out because of an injury, but didn’t have a complement like Mason to keep the ground game anchored.

O’Connell said he probably should’ve dialed up more rushing attempts in the first half Monday. The Vikings were trying to minimize third downs, or at least third-and-longs, for McCarthy in his debut.

But it sounded like he saw what he needed to trust Mason and Jones to deliver as a backfield pair.

“Having Jordan’s physicality with keeping Aaron as fresh as we could, and then being able to use him as a weapon in the pass game as well, it kind of came together in a way when we needed it most,” O’Connell said.
