Yep and the Lions traded Hockenson to the Vikings a few years ago. Division rivals can make trades if they truly believe they both benefit. It’s also risky because they would love to screw each other over like the Bills just did.

The real question is who is YOUR starting 5 and why does Nash Jensen look like he should be working at AutoZone?

Yeah the Vikings beat us last year but Cousins was held in check. 12/19 139 yards 2 TDs and 2 INTS. Their defense scored on a fumble recovery and they won 21-13. Our offense was just garbage as usual. Evero did his part. We even scored on a pick.

The number one pick winning the job vs a vet backup is pretty much the norm. Also Bryce visited with other teams, the Texans and Raiders brought him in, but yeah a week before the draft he cancelled any remaining visits as he knew where he was going. Regardless we have a new staff now. According to this argument it wouldn't matter if we brought it competition or not as the job was/is given to Bryce. So why are you upset we brought it no competition if it's irrelevant? Either the new staff will see Dalton as competition or they are rolling with Young no matter what.

So is Dalton not competition for Young? You stated not too long ago we would have competed for the division with him at QB vs Young based on that Seattle game?

Is there a stat to see how many were called on him in college?

Relax we got Jack Plummer! Plus some fans on here think Dalton is great so we should be set. On a serious note I think they are giving Young this year to get evaluated. Gotta make sure he is or isn’t our future QB. Plus I don’t think claiming Rourke really moves the needle for us.

If it’s out of my control why would I make a big deal? It’s a football team that’s made for entertainment. If it ever becomes a big deal when they are bad I can simply find other things to occupy my free time. Life is too short.

Gotta love the excitement police. It’s freaking sports. If fans want to be excited, let them! If it leads to disappointment then we are just back to where we were. No big deal.

Knecht would fit nice with Ball, Miller, Bridges, and Williams honestly.

There is a big range depending on the injury. This one was just a clean ACL and he is recovering ahead of schedule. Everyone is different you posted a study showing averages. Check out Adrian Peterson tearing his ACL and MCL and playing great 8 months player. I agree he will be eased in but I think he is our feature RB by midseason. Obviously how he plays depends on how well our passing game looks. Having 8 in the box like last year will make life tough on any RB. Last December, Adrian Peterson suffered a serious injury, tearing both the ACL and MCL in his left knee. However, after ACL reconstruction surgery and months of physical therapy and rehab, the Vikings star made a stunning recovery in order to start the season with his team. As of November 15, Peterson led the league in rushing and had scored at least once in each of the last four games. While an ACL injury often destroys sports careers, commentators are saying that Peterson may be performing better than ever https://www.millsteinorthopedics.com/blog/adrian-petersons-staggering-acl-recovery#:~:text=Football great Adrian Peterson recently,MCL in his left knee.

When he is cleared to play means something lol. You are so whiney… Brooks said the ACL tear he suffered in November didn't come with any damage to other ligaments -- a factor that likely contributed to the Panthers' confidence making him the first back selected in the 2024 NFL Draft (46th overall). He's begun running and plans to resume cutting soon, with the intention of participating at the start of training camp in late July, shortly after his 21st birthday https://www.cbssports.com/fantasy/football/news/panthers-jonathon-brooks-on-track-for-camp/amp/ He should get some touches early on and eased into the starting role.

He said he will be ready by 7/1 for training camp?

I’m pretty sure the Kraft reaction was staged? There are no limits on these things.

I think it will hopefully be reasonable improvements but I doubt we will compete for the division. 24 TDs 3000 plus yards but I’m not sure we are complete/experienced enough to turn it into wins.

Clean ACLs really are not. He is already running on it. There are more complicated injuries where ACLs tear with other things that can cause more serious injuries. I think that’s where the confusion comes in.

Yeah he is trying to go back to doing what normal owners do. Like I said nothing to see here. Whether he can keep it up or not is something we will have to see as the season unfolds.

I’m talking about the war room and draft we just witnessed. Sitting in a war room is normal behavior and nothing to get upset about. Bringing up past issues which I already mentioned are fair game doesn’t really change the point.

Nah people are just reaching now. Following a normal approach as most owners do is nothing to get upset about. The best part is most of the videos I’ve seen have been Morgan talking with Tillis which is what you want. There is plenty to get frustrated with him and her about without overreacting to something nearly all owners do.

Owners in the war room is very common if not normal practice. Blank was in his, Hamp, Kraft, and even Hunt was there for the Chiefs. I’m trying to find an owner NOT in their teams war room…

Do you mean Edge or DE? Brown and Robinson are solid DEs. Clowney and Wonnum seem capable Edge guys but we 100% need depth. We also need CB (hopefully Gilly).

Stroud you could argue was a rookie and would have a shitty staff to learn from with a bad OL and no weapons. He still probably wins more but there is a semi legit argument there. But now we are getting carried away just like the Pro Dalton people got carried away by that Seattle game…
