In here I say: Corn Elder shall lead the way

Gents and counter-rags:

Corn Elder is young, instinctive, lightning fast (as Donte) and has a high football IQ.  

Captain Munnerlyn is not viable with Adams either in the box or behind.  It just creates too much of a speed disproportion and I think is a huge part of our defensive problem at the moment.

STAR CORN MOTHER F'N ELDER!

I wish.  That is probably the biggest thing I dislike about Rivera.  He won't give that position up until CM gets hurt. 

lol what? he literally dog housed Captain last season and people complained.

You're expecting too much of Rivera to play the better players

theres a reason he doesnt start , he  SUCKS! . he was mediocre in college vs no names what  makes you think hes able to cover someone like michael thomas which btw will be in the slot vs us 

I don't know that I agree he sucks, but if he was tearing it up in practice he'd be playing more. They had no problem playing rookie Jackson, and Elder's had more time to learn the system.

Captain should've been benched after the TB game. Fitz pretty much just played "throw at #41" during their comeback and he did it with great success.

And so will every other QB and OC, til "I'll trail your slot guy all across the field, then try to stand over him after somebody else manages to tackle him" Munnerlyn is finally benched.  We'll never know if Elder can be better, until he's given the opportunity.  Frankly, I don't see how he can be worse.  I'm certain that he can match the Captain's rare flash play of a corner blitz, though.

You never want a rookie playing the slot. 

As a rule of thumb, yes, but we give up so much with CM out there, that how can he be worse?  The slightest head fake, and Captain is 1-2 steps behind, never to contest, not to mention, stop, the inevitable completion.

It's as though we played 10 on 11.

    • As I've said numerous times the last few days, having Thielen on the field has literally 0% to do with my views on this (I've even said I think Renfrow is going to take a ton of snaps from Thielen anyways).  He has more value to this team without playing a single snap than a 2026 5th round draft pick does for the franchise.   His value is helping set up T-Mac, XL, Coker, and Horn for long term success by helping them learn how to be pros, how to go about their business, how to train, how to do all the little things that helped turn Thielen from a D2 undrafted player into a borderline Vikings legend.
    • He only wants to be traded because it's the Vikings who are calling. If he didn't want to be here, he could have retired, instead he took a pay raise to come back for another season.  I get it, it's an opportunity that he'd like to take, but we shouldn't cut off our nose to spite our face because he now wants to jump at this opportunity less than two weeks before the season starts. I'm not against trading him, I'm just against trading him for a return that doesn't help our team as much as having him on the roster would.  I'll put it this way, if a 5th is the best we can get for him from the Vikings and he's now dug in on not wanting to stay this year, I'm saying screw you and trading him to any of the other 30 teams besides the Vikings for the best offer we can get. He was perfectly happy here a week ago, if the Vikings soured him on that and then want to get him for peanuts, then screw them both.
    • Yes and no, he wants to go back and his wife most definitely wants to go back. He took a bunch of team mates to Minny and has worked out with JJ two offseasons in a row. It's where both him and his wife are from.    The money was basically a please come back and help Bryce. Pretty please...here's some more money.    Now he's agreed to a paycut to go back to the Vikings.
