Great summary. It was a good day to watch football. All four teams deserved to be there. Good entertainment. The Vikings are not that good, but they are entertaining, and with a little bit of luck they could be really good in a couple of years. By the way, many teams could have drafted JJ before the Vikes and they all passed. Ayiuk was also missed by many. The draft this year will also be great entertainment. There will be many second guessers critical of our pick that is relatively early.
Watching the first 1st of the Ravens-Chiefs game made it clear to me that the Vikings will never win anything without an elite QB. The gap between Mahomes/Jackson and Cousins is just too huge
We need a complete rebuild, not this "tweener" concept of staying competitive while rebuilding.
If the Wilfs have any guts (remember, it is much more their call than Kwesi`s) we get our QBOTF this year. That does not preclude getting a cheap veteran just in case and to act as a tutor (and no, Kirk will not be cheap).
Uugh. I give up prognosticating on this league. Too many examples to pull from. What about our "Miracle" team that was up 7 on Philly in the NFC Championship with journeyman Case Keenam at the helm. Will Detroit collapse back to mediocrity like we did? Will they get better? Who's to say? Are we just a few players away from greatness? Or a complete tear down to start from scratch?

I am so ready for this whole season to be over with. On to the off season festivities!
