WK 03 ~ vs BUCS ~ Discussion, News, Pressers, etc.
We're 2-0 & Divisional wins at that!
Now it's on to Tampa to take on the Bucs. They're 0-2, but I still wouldn't take this game lightly. (Actually, I never take any game lightly.) I'm sure they're really hungry for a win.
Edit: It's a late afternoon game at 3:05 Central on FOX.

Vikings have given me the big middle finger on it...
Considering that our O is now Ground KOC, we needed to go into the year with something more than 2 vets who can’t stay on the field and an unproven rookie. Maybe Claiborne surprises. Ford isn’t half bad, I’ll expect a call up. Deejay too.
But, JFC, we really needed to tap into that 25 draft class instead we have a WR5 who to date has mostly been a gunner.

KAM, the gifts keep coming...
They probably passed on a RB cause they just threw $$ at a RB2 type in Mason the FA b4 that draft:
✅ Date: March 15, 2025
✅ Transaction: Trade and two-year contract agreement
✅ Contract Value: Two years, up to $12 million ($7 million fully guaranteed)
✅ Compensation: 2025 draft pick swap (No. 160 for No. 187) and a 2026 sixth-round pick sent to San Francisco [1, 2, 3]
Achane would totally turbo-charge this offense.
Hurry-up Vikings, we ain't getting any younger!

Couldn't agree more. And most of us said it at the time: why are we taking yet another WR when RB seems to be a bigger need. Both Tuten and Scattebo...not to mention JCM....were available when we took Felton, who is now our WR5 after Price worked his ass off to earn WR4.
I don't think this is an idictment on Felton as much as it is a reward for Price. Still, the current optics on that 3rd round draft pick are not good.

Vikings at Bucs Week - 1991 - Vikings lead the entire game, but hold off the Bucs at the end 26-24.

The Vikings have two veteran RBs on the practice squad who in theory could be elevated or signed to the 53-man roster: Jerome Ford and Jaret Patterson. https://t.co/yGd6aH1uzx
