Less collaboration, more accountability……….from the top down.

The owners don’t have that mindset though…..3 play off wins in 20 years is it, all because they don’t see the issues with the approach.

Operation ‘Save Your Own Arse’ is in full flow isn’t it…………which will result in backwards thinking without any forward planning.
February 11, 2026 at 8:54 AM
What a shit show that room and the decisions around it have become.
February 11, 2026 at 7:23 AM
And 10 times better coaching and scheming.

The end of the NFL season today means the Vikings work is only beginning. juddzulgad.substack.com/p/vikings-fi...
Vikings find themselves in familiar situation as they begin to explore QB options for 2026
Could Kyler Murray be wearing purple next season? Now that the NFL season is complete, the Vikings must decide who will be their starting quarterback.

Desperate for Sammy D to get that ring. Comes across as such a genuine person.
What a journey.

That’s how they decided who to fire between KOC and Kwesi.
That slight frame and lack of NFL player background ended him.

Kyler intrigues me, I won’t lie.

2/2
His arse is on the hot seat now as he has to get this season right or he’s gone as there’s nobody else to blame.

@adamnew85.bsky.social I’ve watched and listened to so much stuff this last week and I still can’t work out what I think they’ll do at QB in the next month or so.
KOC has his scapegoat now (even though every man and his dog knows he’s as responsible) so could easily pivot away from McCarthy 1/2

Justin Jefferson's comments about Sam Darnold and the quarterback position aren't the first we will hear, and they won't be the last.

The Wilfs need to take a closer look at how they operate the Vikings. Unlocked for all to read. juddzulgad.substack.com/p/zygi-and-m...
Zygi and Mark Wilf need to examine how they run the Vikings before making any more hires
The decision to fire general manager Kwesi Adofo-Mensah on Friday was the latest sign that ownership needs to do some self-reflection.

The firing of Kwesi Adofo-Mensah sends a very strong signal that will have ripple effects this year and beyond.

My latest for @atozsports.bsky.social atozsports.com/nfl/minnesot...
Kwesi Adofo-Mensah’s firing sends a strong signal to Kevin O’Connell after the Senior Bowl
There are no excuses left for Kevin O’Connell’s Minnesota Vikings.

I think this is a QB blame game playing out………not just JJ but the Backup situation too.
January 30, 2026 at 7:26 PM
Either there’s been a big divide on a big decision……..or this is a KOC Power Play as the fingers of blame have been getting pointed.
But I agree, the timings the surprise here.
January 30, 2026 at 7:13 PM
Very interesting to see if it’s someone with a previous connection to KOC that comes in.
There’s a power play involved here for my money.
January 30, 2026 at 7:00 PM
It’s the timing for me. How lots of big changes didn’t happen in the first week is astounding after a failed season that had its issues papered over by Flores.
January 30, 2026 at 6:50 PM
It seems a decision that’s more bizarre due to its timing than reasoning………….unless something changed in views on a big decision between those at the top that forced a decision.
January 30, 2026 at 6:45 PM
Well that’s a surprise as I thought it would’ve happened earlier.
The Vikings are firing GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, a source tells The Athletic.
January 30, 2026 at 6:21 PM
Utterly embarrassing.

They’re made for each other.
January 30, 2026 at 3:11 PM
Everything Dallas Cowboys is overhyped nonsense.
The desperation in the media to polish a turd is very much a thing where they’re concerned.
January 28, 2026 at 4:21 PM
I think it’s THE best option that’ll be available.
