Zygi and Mark are Frauds

They talk a good game about championships but the last time this team was in a Super Bowl, Gerald Ford was president. They are risk averse, no trades will be made by deadline, and the inaccurate midget will remain qb.

seriously,,,,,

only thing i fault them for is not giving the ok to totally rebuild. There should be no trades at the deadline it is a flawed team at the most important position.

The Wilfs have owned the Vikings for 21 years. The team in that time has had I think 3 legitimate shots at the crown, 2009 with Favre, 2017, and 2024 in all cases the Vikings folded when it counted most, I would asterisk the Favre year because clearly the Saints cheated and the refs were horrible in OT. But in ALL THAT TIME, never once did the FO go for broke, never once did they make a real play at getting the franchise QB. Chiefs traded 2 first rounders to move up from 27 to 10 to get Mahomes. The Vikings FO has always played it close to the vest and were too clever by half. At least Spielman and his regime drafted some really great players. Kwesi was absolutely AWFUL. Amazing the Packers trade for Favre, draft Rodgers, and then trade up for Love. Say what you want about Love but if he was in Purple he would have lit up the Lions yesterday. Piss poor management.

draft is a crap shoot mahomes wasn't considered even in the top 2 qbs coming out. there is a clear lack of quality qb's. Vikings tried like hell to get maye pats didn't want to do it. the 1 position Vikings has always been unlucky on is qb. wr amazing rb had some good ones. qb's not so much. commit to a rebuild will put you in position to get a shot at a qb

its been argued that the 2 firsts and all the picks that it took to get the second first were offered to NE to move up for Maye a couple years ago, who knows what else they threw in a the time to try and make that move. I think it hard to say that they NEVER try to fix the position. Now.... do I think they should be doing more, of course, but they ponied up for Favre, they ponied up for Cousins, they have been putting money into the roster at the QB position, it just hasnt paid off yet. I will be curious as to what they do prior to the 27 season, because this shit certainly wont sell tickets going forward.... well maybe the D will.
