Captain Munnerlyn says Vikes not worried about Funchess

Yea, Captain definitely didn't have to take that shot at Fun. I wonder was Funchess talking during the game? Could've shut Captain up if he made that tough catch at the end.

Either way, hopefully he responds to this by getting open and catching the ball against ATL.

Funchess wasn't the only given a bit of a shade today. Minnestoa generated a lot of coverage sacks with their CBs.

 

it's a shame that at no point in the offseason could we have had the opportunity to have an elite CB on roster this season, and I'm so glad we don't undervalue them because of old semantics about pass rush negating the need for them.

"Me personally, I think No. 17 (Funchess) is not that good" isn't gameplan indicating - it's taking a shot at a receiver who didn't have a good game.  That's the part that annoys me.  A guy has a bad game then you have the stones to say you don't think he's very good?  Yawn.

It's not that he had a bad game, it's that he's only had one good game in his entire career. He has three catches for 28 yards in three games so far this season when many were talking about him pushing KB. I know Proehl has said promising things, but sometimes coaches talk guys up to boost their confidence. Starting to think that might be what that talk was.

They must have quadrupled team KB the whole game because he probably only had one target.  No way Xavier Rhodes, a hobbled Xavier Rhodes at that, could shut down KB like that all by himself.  So if KB was covered like that, how in the world did our other receivers not do anything?  Oh, and our "Offensive Tackles" suck.

      2027: Sharing my thoughts on the cap without a lotta research

      By MHS831 · Posted

      I see Bryce's development this way: He improved when his supporting cast improved.  TMac and Dowdle saved his arse last year, but in fairness, most good QBs have good WRs and good RBs--and good OLs.   The 2025 OL underperformed, actually. They were above average, but they should have been elite if you consider the salary cap.   As soon as we signed Lewis and Hunt, I started thinking, "That's not sustainable.  With Ickey about to get paid a LT salary, Moton and Hunt grabbling $50m per season combined, and Lewis around $17m--that would be nearly $100m and the Center just walked.  Yikes.  What does that mean?  Rico walks, Mays walks, and we do not have a top 5 WR on a second contract.  We do not have an elite TE, and only 1 is on a modest second contract. And now Bryce will demand $50m for his incremental rise to mediocrity?   So when we sign Bryce, we will get weaker at other positions.  Hunt, Moton, maybe Ickey and Lewis, will all be casualties--that is the right move regardless (not sure yet about Ickey, but he was not elite) Bryce is one lucky, entitled camper.  No competition since being drafted, and he lost his job for a while to the aging clipboard holder.  Now we are bringing in UDFAs and busts to compete with him.

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      Probably not.  If we are taking a QB, it would be a prospect to replace Bryce and not a flyer type player.  I can't say for sure, but I doubt he would have cracked the top 3-4 QBs even if he were to play this coming season.

      The Giants, Cardinals  and Dolphins should have moved on, but they didn't and ended up cutting their QB early into a monster second contract and had to eat a TON of dead cap money.
