Right?

Last year was a year to kick-back and enjoy what entertainment they might bring to the field. See what KOC might be able to do with Sammy.

For me? That was a great big check mark, even with the disappointing loss to LA.

This year? All about JJM

Viking fans are going to lose their s hit if he's what Sticky says he is

What say you???

Rookie QB, new OL, not sure I set the bar that high. We've got a bitch of a schedule this year. I think even making the playoffs will be an accomplishment. I want to see our team compete in those tough games and for once put away the weaker opponents early and crush their spirits so we dont have a nail biter in the 4th. Fuck the ratings and the betting lines, let's see a team that dont fuck around like we used to see.

Last year my prediction before the season was; This team is going to the playoffs.
This year my prediction is; This team is going to the playoffs.

I'm definitely thinking playoffs, but the story will be who the team is as the season progresses. JJM has had the extra time to heal and soak up the offense, the trenches have gotten much-needed upgrades, the overall team has gotten continuity from coaches and culture...but, how long does it take to get it all focused correctly, and can the team/coaches gain and maintain momentum heading into January?

Stay tuned....

If JJM is what Sticky says he is, is what KOC clearly believes he is, then Viking fans are going to go apeshit. Of course that is a mighty big IF.

There's no need to fear, JJ McCarthy is here:

I also am predicting white Jayden Daniels, but with a better roster. That said, I'm not going to be disappointed if it doesn't happen. I just want him to look like the guy who can grow into a SB winner by the end of the season.

Ooooeeee....white Jayden Daniels? Damn boy.....drinking the Kool Aid. I like it. Spot on in bold, that's what my hope is. I won't put wins or playoff wins in my must haves for this season.
