  • Play Bad, Get Replaced: Vikings Trade For Nick Mullens

    On this 🎙The Real Forno Show 🏈, after a disappointing performance against the San Francisco 49ers, the Minnesota Vikings desperately needed to change the situation at backup quarterback. Kwesi Adofo-Mensah agreed and made a move, acquiring Nick Mullens from the Las Vegas Raiders for a conditional 2024 seventh-round pick. There were some major takeaways from the game, including: - Vikings' QB play has consequences. They out and get a new QB2 - Clarification on the offensive line - Rookies shine - T.Y. McGill stars - Mr. Mankato? - Patrick Jones emerging All of this and more tonight on The Real Forno Show. Strap in and join host Tyler Forness and producer Dave live tonight! Fan with us!!!

  • Backward Steps

    On this Two Old Bloggers🎙, the Minnesota Vikings played the San Francisco 49ers last night and even though it mainly the 2’s and 3’s squaring up, it wasn’t what Vikings fans had hoped for in the only home game of the preseason. It was a real snoozer of a game that saw backward steps in the progress of Kellen Mond as a QB2. Sean Mannion was pure Mannion and now the biggest question of the game is if the Vikings bring in some other quarterback to backup Kirk Cousins? There were some good performances though from the backups with T.Y. McGill earning the top spot on the night. He was dominate being disruptive at nose tackle, racking up more pressures, sacks, and run stops. He makes talk of D-line depth seem solved. Barring the Vikings signing Ndamukong Suh, he should round out the defensive tackle room just fine. Here are the themes for the show: Theme #1: Preseason game #2: Vikings/49ers – what we saw Theme #2: Vikings positional battles heat up! Theme #3: Message to Vikings fans – R-E-L-A-X Darren Campbell and David Stefano are the Two Old Bloggers. Both started their public commentary on the Vikings two decades ago on various blogs. They now do it via live streams on YouTube and Facebook. We appreciate your team fandom and that you take the time to enjoy it with us.

  • Vikings vs 49ers | The Final Score

    Vikings vs 49ers and The Final Score has you covered. The Minnesota Vikings are hosting the San Francisco 49ers at U.S. Bank Stadium for preseason game 2. Players are battling for roster spots and trying to prove that they need to be kept on the roster. There are some rookies that want to make a case for starting. It looks like Ed Ingram may have locked down the starting right guard spot. Can he cement that conclusion? Lewis Cine has been getting it but is still a half step slow adjusting to the NFL’s decision speed. Andrew Booth Jr is exciting at cornerback, but can he learn to be less flag prone, and by that either less grabby or more deceptive when doing it? Then after seeing Brian Asamoah with huge highs and few lows last week, can he reduce those low plays where he gets swallowed up? These are things we’ll be watching. We invite you too. Finally, in the final two minutes, LIVE with us! 1) Highlights 2) Lowlights 3) Speed round and your questions 4) What’s ahead The Final Score [the name for CTP’s Postgame show] is ready for the season. There are 4 new regulars and the occasional guest. The focus will be on you the fan, and how you felt the team did. Hopefully racking up the wins in the regular season. Today, Flip Mazzi, Jayson Brown, and Dave will all be here.

  • Mond, Mond, Mond

    The Minnesota Vikings have travelled to meet the Las Vegas Raiders in their new digs. Football is back, even if it is only the first preseason game. Kirk Cousins sits home because he’s ill. No biggie because he wasn’t going to play much anyways for his protection. That gives Vikings fans a good chance to see Kellen Mond with the first team, right? Nope, Sean Mannion will be getting the start. Mond, Mond, Mond, are you not even good enough to surpass Mannion? This worries fans and tempts the football gods. This is because if Kirk Cousins is taken down due to serious injury, the promise of this season will be quickly wiped out. What do you want to see during the game? What do you expect to see? Are there any positions you will watch? Darren and Dave will be going over some of the more interesting ones. Then, what about a competent back-up QB? Is Mannion or Mond the answer? How about the offensive linemen protecting them? Are we going to see improvement in the team's Achilles heal? Dave will explain over how to watch them and find out. This will be the first pregame show of the Vikings’ 2022 season. Darren Campbell and David Stefano are the Two Old Bloggers. Both started their public commentary on the Vikings two decades ago on various blogs. They now do it via live streams on YouTube and Facebook. We appreciate your team fandom and that you take the time to enjoy it with us. Here are the themes on your pregame show: - #Vikings @ #Raiders – what we’re watching - Vikes backup QB situation?

  • Players on the Clock

Players are on the clock with the Vikings' first preseason game away against the Las Vegas Raiders just a few days away. Why are they on the clock? The first roster cuts come next Tuesday.

Better conference in 2022, AFC or NFC? 3. Which Viking will be on your fantasy team? Eric asks: 1. Which position battle are you most interested in? 2. Will the new culture make a difference on the field this year? 3. Who is your breakout star on the 2022 Vikings? #Vikings #VikingHotTakes #ClimbingThePocket #SKOL #LakeMonsterBrew #DailyNorseman Fan with us!!!

  • Vikings Depth Chat “OR”?

    Hey all! Vikings Happy Hour is back and we’re stoked that our first preseason game is just around the corner, but first… Craig Peters, the senior editor for Vikings dot com wrote and published the first unofficial depth chart of the 2022 season. Most of the depth chart isn’t surprising, but there was a word used in an odd and unusual way. There were two positions with a capitalized “OR”. The first one was at quarterback, “Kellen Mond OR Sean Mannion” and at wide receiver, “Trishton Jackson OR Jalen Nailor”. Is this a cut line? Has the team signaled that they are only keeping 2 quarterbacks? Is Jackson ahead of Nailor when Nailor was the draftee? Interesting isn’t it? The Minnesota Vikings will travel to play the Las Vegas Raiders. We don’t know how much the starters will play, or at least key ones like Kirk Cousins and Justin Jefferson. We do know, however, that rookies such as Andrew Booth Jr. and Brian Asamoah will get a sizable chunk of reps. Are they and the other rookies ready for the spotlight? The boys are here and ready to break down everything leading up to the game this weekend. Plus, the hype around Christian Darrisaw and Greg Joseph. If you’re not fully in on Kevin O’Connell, Matt, Ryan, and Dave will explain why you should. So grab your Lake Monster beer and join us! Skol! Discussion topics tonight for episode 059: • The first official unofficial depth chart was released by the Vikings. • Are you all in on Kevin O Connell yet? You should be. • Christian Darrisaw hype 👀 • Are you worried we’re jinxing Greg Joseph? • Rookie Roundup: any rookies catching your eye? • Who/What to watch for in the first Vikings preseason game. #Vikings #VikingsHappyHour #CTP #ClimbingThePocket #SKOL #LakeMonsterBrew Fan with us!!!
