Autopsy of the 2025 Minnesota Vikings Season - What Went Wrong? — In this episode of 'Two Old Bloggers,' Dave and Darren delve into the downfall of the Minnesota Vikings' 2025 season. Starting with high aspirations, the season has nosedived into disappointment with a 4-8 record. The bloggers critique the team's struggles, specifically addressing poor quarterback play, offensive line issues, and mounting penalties. They debate the future of head coach Kevin O'Connell and GM Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, suggesting both could return despite fan discontent. The episode also touches on the potential need to trade star wide receiver Justin Jefferson if the quarterback situation doesn't improve.
