Another Draft Season, another Mock Draft. I get in to scenarios, quarterbacks, draft needs and run a Mock draft with some trades. It's also smokescreen season so... I did my best. Stay tuned for a pre-draft show in the next weeks.

Well we wrap the season with a lot of, as of now; unanswered questions. Draft a QB? Resign Cousins? Pick 11 in the upcoming NFL Draft. Going to be a telling off-season.

Sorry to miss a show last week and with the holidays things got a bit complicated. We saw Jaren Hall and... well. It appears he needs more time. The losses piling up as we move up the draft board. Please, for all that is holy don't win on Sunday against the Lions and move into the off-season with some optimism.

The first half was promising but yet again, turnover cost the Vikes the game. Double Tush Push and a swinging arm also played a part in it. 7-7, Mullins to start against the Cowardly Lions.

Blah blah punt. Blah Blah PUNT! A win is a win. Mullins or Dobbs...? This Defense is legit and it could carry us a long way.

A late bye this year. Who starts Sunday? Jefferson returns and Defense continues to climb..., if it wasn't for all those pesky turnovers.

That was an ugly game to watch and then to end in disappointment... Self-inflicted wounds. Can't blame the defense.... on to the bye.

Let's keep things in perspective. A loss to an AFC team isn't the end of the season. Things could have gone better but it is what it is. Bring on the Bears.

Five in a row... First half looked like a cake walk then the second half... offense bogged down. Defense gave up a few things. On to Denver...

Well... we beat the Packers at Curly Lambeau Field by more than one score but.... an Achilles rupture causes us to reevaluate the remainder of the season. It's just the way this franchise operates.

Philly won that game. Yes, we turned the ball over and over but in the end 16 play, 13 run drive said it all. We signed Dalton Risner... we preview Chargers and talk a little Gophers.
