Brian Flores Burning NFL Bridges & Vikings GM Finalists Revealed | Two Old Bloggers🎙

Flores Lawsuit Escalates, Vikings Add Massive DTs, GM Finalists Named, OTAs Begin — Dave and Darren discuss Brian Flores’ discrimination lawsuit against the NFL, noting his legal team subpoenaed 25 additional teams—bringing involvement to 31 of 32—and how that likely harms his head-coaching chances while benefiting the Vikings by keeping him as defensive coordinator. They review the Vikings’ 2025 defensive performance (third in yards allowed, seventh in points) but highlight a weak run defense (21st in rushing yards allowed) and examine how rookies Banks (330 lbs) and Dominique Orange (325 lbs), plus added size on the line, could improve it by replacing snaps previously taken by poor run defenders Jonathan Allen and Javon Hargrave. They cover the Vikings narrowing their GM search to five finalists and Minnesota being awarded the 2028 NFL Draft, then preview OTAs with focus on Kyler Murray throwing to Justin Jefferson and the Murray–J.J. McCarthy quarterback competition. 00:00 Show Intro and Topics 01:37 Live Chat Roll Call 02:51 Flores Lawsuit Escalates 04:59 How It Affects Vikings 06:36 Paths to Head Coach 09:47 Discovery Timeline Talk 12:16 Power Rumors in Minnesota 16:53 Theme Two Run Defense 19:50 Drafting Bigger Linemen 24:36 Rookie Impact and Coaching 33:10 Dave’s Big Front Vision 39:13 Scheme Fit and Wrap 41:05 Run Defense Nicknames 42:59 GM Finalists Revealed 45:40 Why Terrance Gray 49:57 Finalist Visits Process 54:10 Minnesota Hosts 2028 Draft 58:54 OTAs Begin This Week 01:00:42 QB Battle Spotlight 01:06:23 Wrap Up and Memorial Day Fan With Us!
