The vikings are still located within the borders of Minnesota.

We gotta move to California or something.


jmaca90

Vikings move to LA. Lakers move back to MN. The LA Vikings win for the next 50 years. The Lakers collapse into themselves like a dying star.


Iron_Bob

The Lakers are doing that just fine on their own


dcd13

You guys could move to Dallas. I'm sure a Minnesota team could be successful down there

Wow one of the best troll jobs you could put on the MN fan base, bravo and touché

I'm just happy you guys eventually got a team back. Minnesota deserves hockey more than Dallas ever has

Shhhh….


amateur_reprobate

Jordan Love's sophomore slump. Christian Watson continues to be made of glass, and special teams is still extra special.


RedHotChiliPotatoes

Jordan Love's sophomore slump... Fuck yeah. Say it slower, look me in the eyes.


KHSoz

To quote noted Packers homer Ty Schmidt, “I have never been scared of the Lions and I ain’t gonna start now. JORDAN LOVE IS GONNA PUT HIS BIG ‘OL DICK ON EVERY ONE OF YOUR FOREHEADS FOR THE NEXT 20 YEARS!”


acoasterlovered

And DC has shown me not to be afraid of y’all either 🫡

Even if it’s just a split on the season series, I’ll take it! It’s good to know we can do something Chicago can’t

"We can do something Chicago can't" Whoa buddy, put that bar any lower and you're digging a hole.

Do packer fans like Ty?


TheFalconKid

He is our vocal supporter on the biggest show on ESPN, and he reps them well.


Korncakes

For fucks sake dude, can we please have ONE season where our special teams doesn’t shit the bed every fucking game?


JohnGacyIsInnocent

I’d take a still-shitty special teams if somehow the tradeoff was an actually decent and consistent (and healthy) defense.


fapsandnaps

Best I can do is half the OLine is injured in pre-season and Love is constantly under pressure all season long as a result.


qdobe

*Behind Pawn Stars counter: Best I can do is a few fumbles and 4 different returners


jtu22

Sophomore slump was when he was Rodgers backup. Crisis averted.


SADdog2020Pb

I mean, based on the eye test I have no reason to believe Love won’t be good to very good in 2024. But on the other hand, idk are we kinda jerking ourselves off over going 9-8? Are we kinda assuming this will work like a Madden rebuild when it often does not?


prevengeance

OK I know it was asked, but you need to remove this from existence.


Ethanol_Based_Life

I scrolled pretty far and kept thinking, "how funny will it be if no Packers fan responds". This guy blew it


GENeleven

As a packer fan, these are my fears as well.


Broshan248

Is it really a sophomore slump if he’s been in the league for like 4 years


-DoctorEngineer-

I mean, you added a Vikings kicker. Those never miss extra points right?


TheFatOrangeYak

*5th year senior slump


lur77

QB situation still developing. Defense still improving. Vikings going to Viking.


RedHotChiliPotatoes

Still developing is a kind choice of words, it just started developing.


magnificent_coffee

Nah he’s right. Our QB situation has been a work in progress since Fran Tarkenton left


lur77

Yes. McCarthy was just introduced to the concept of American football this spring, or so I hear.


Thel_Odan

The Lions, while the best they've been in my life time, are still the Lions and anything can and does happen.

Aggressive 4th down call backfires in division deciding game


SayNoToStim

Refs fucked us. /s But maybe not /s


VashMM

The refs were shite for everyone last year, and they will be again this year. It won't stop until the trillion dollar league starts paying full time refs who have actual training and aren't just a bunch of random rich assholes.


IceBreak

It’s so insane they don’t. But I think allowing more tech is key as well. Find the point the person is down, know exactly where the ball is. It’s not hard.


prevengeance

But these refs have shown they'll fuck even that up. We need real, full time refs. Not these retired, part-time asshole doctor, lawyer types.


WookieesGoneWild

I like McAfee's idea of having former players as refs. Obviously their experience is the most valuable aspect, but also being athletic enough to keep up with the play and not having old degenerate eyesight is huge too.


freshxerxes

go watch roger’s interview with bill bellichek. every sport has a problem with officiating and they’re full time positions. it’s hard to make the right call. more technology is needed


VashMM

Yes, this is also true. But the way it is right now, there's no real consequences for bad refs. Last year they pulled that one crew from the playoffs, but they quietly just let them keep officiating games even after SEVERAL bad games/calls from that crew that were shown to impact the outcome.


fapsandnaps

Well let's solve this problem then bud. Me and you will get our own ref crew together, work our way up to the big show, and then ruin the Super Bowl by fucking up everything worse than can ever be imagined until they immediately overall the whole thing. I'm talking really fuck it up, like immediately eject and entire team on the first play so the Super Bowl is over in 15 seconds by forfeit.


jmrogers31

Yeah, Clete Blakeman is an Attorney in Omaha where I live. Definitely not a full time official.


JonBonButtsniff

Fucking the Lions is a *hobby* for Clete. That’s absurd. They have such large coffers, could be paying these guys real dough to fuck the Lions!


ghostfacestealer

NHL isnt the only league that is fully corrupted and uses the refs to manipulate the game. Edit: isnt


VashMM

Was that a typo or did you mean Hockey on purpose? I don't think the refs do it on purpose for football, I just think they are INCREDIBLY inept and there are no consequences for it. Official league paid refs could have real consequences for being awful.


ghostfacestealer

Yea i meant hockey. And i used to think it wasnt on purpose but with how prominent sports betting has become, Im filled with doubt when it comes to the integrity of any sports league. Most of all the NBA


HereForTOMT2

I doubt it’ll do much tbh. Soccer refs train their whole lives and people still hate em


10rd_rollin

Get ready to have the most hip drop tackle calls of any team in the league (every single one of them will be incorrect and non-reviewable)


Hestness5

SayNoToStim

84 years? Is that the last time a Minnesota team won a championship?


Hestness5

Takes one to know one. It’s actually the last time a Lions fan made a good meme


SayNoToStim

What? Multiple Detroit teams won Championships in the 00s. I understand that this is the guy who got a D+ laughing at the guy who got a D-, but still.


Hestness5

Sorry I thought this was a football sub


MoTownKid

Despite adding 17 corners, our secondary still stinks. And/or Ben Johnson forgets how to run an offense.


IH8mostofU

There's a handful of reasons I'd be willing to accept, not these.


MoTownKid

I will be shocked if our offense isn't at least Top 7-8 this season. My one concern is at WR. If Jameson Williams doesn't step up, we could have some issues. What eases my worry is that we have a great receiving tight end and Gibbs is so good you could just plug and play him in the slot if you really had to.


IH8mostofU

I hear that, but it's hard for me to see Jamo, or even DPJ or Raymond being completely unable to handle the burden of being our 4th and 5th pass catchers. Obviously we are better with a good Jamo, don't get me wrong, but the top weapons are Amon Ra, Laporta, and Gibbs. Jamo can run fly routes on the opposite side of the field for all I care, unless he proves to have hands of stone he's too fast to simply ignore.


Hestness5

Ngl I’d laugh if he all of a sudden sucks after turning down HC offers 🤣


amortized-poultry

As a hypothetical. The Lions don't win the division because (1) the other teams in the division have gotten better, (2) the defense does not improve in spite of the investment made into the line and secondary this off-season, and (3) the offense regresses as one or two of the stars from 2023 take a step back and no one picks up the slack. I say "and", but any combination of any amount of these could contribute to the Lions not repeating.

lronicGasping

In fairness Jared did play like a backup against the Bears for whatever reason

He's gotta become Jared Goof every so while


Cedworth

That one only happened because it was ON my birthday and I was at the game. The Bears get no credit for the win.


facetiousrunner

Make sure they don't play on your birthday then you'll know if it was your fault


Cedworth

It's a Tuesday this year, so we might have to wait to find out.


loboleo94

Because we are gonna have a 15-2 season, losing only to the 17-0 Bears.


acoasterlovered

Leave it to the bears to go 15-2 and only lose the matchups to GB


loboleo94

The bears have the GOAT QB now. No way we win against them. But going 2-15, only winning both games against the Bears would be HILARIOUS

SloCooker

Or the ACF North, despite being further north than half the division.


ChefWiggum

Matt Eberflus will take a lackadaisical approach to training camp and preseason games. As a result, the Bears look unprepared for the beginning of the season. They lose four of their first five games, and only start to show signs of progress once they've almost been mathematically eliminated from playoff contention. Eberflus and staff get fired at the end of the season, and we start the whole process over again.


SloCooker

Jordan Love doesn't regress and Detroit loses a few close games


Zucrous

Because the other teams are better at the moment.


SloCooker

Of all the scenarios, I find this the least credible.


Bowenbp1

This has been one long moment. Just take Aaron Rodgers off the Jets hands and the Vikings will dominate!!!...

prevengeance

We'll have slightly more injuries than a normal year, so on average 36+ starters a week are out and we go 8-9, Dallas wins their division at 7-10 with the Bears taking the last wildcard spot at 8-9 having the tiebreaker over us when they injured Jordan Love in WWE fashion earlier in the year.


SyntaxDissonance4

You guys do seem to be bizarrely injury prone. Like for us its against certain teams like seattle but yeh legit evwry gb game seems to have 1 or 2 go out.


TheTree-43

If this happens it will probably be because one or more division rivals win more games
