Jake Golday (41) blitzing off the edge and then recovering to chase down the scrambling QB. He's been impressive in both preseason games.

3rd and 9 in the first quarter. First read is Jefferson, who is open by NFL standards. McCarthy then progresses to the backside and has Addison wide open, but chooses to get Hockenson lit up on the checkdown instead.

Kevin O'Connell mentioned today that a couple of J.J. McCarthy's tipped balls would've led to an explosive play and a touchdown to Jordan Addison. Here are those two plays:

Here's the play KOC drew up on the sideline that got Justin Jefferson wide open behind the defense. You'd like to think McCarthy rips it for a 66-yard touchdown if the pocket holds up. He ended up doing well to gain 16 on a scramble.

Super bummed for Cam Akers suffering another Achilles injury. In his honor, let's all watch him pancake a defensive lineman who's 70 pounds heavier than him and then let him know about it afterwards.

Here's the second Darnold interception. You'd love to see him pick up Jones flashing open as the checkdown. Instead, he tries to go to Jefferson but the two aren't on the same page.

Dallas Turner's first game of 2026 was incredible. 9 pressures. 7 QB hits. Sack + FF. Unreal speed off the edge from the 23-year-old.

Just feel awful for Carson Wentz on a human level. It feels legitimately irresponsible that he was allowed to play almost the entire game.

Here's every J.J. McCarthy non-handoff from the Vikings' preseason opener against NYG (including two plays that didn't count because of penalties). Stats: 4 for 7, 34 yards, 1 rushing yard, 1 sack Thoughts?

T.J. Hockenson was not happy with his diving touchdown in the fourth quarter getting overturned by the replay center in New York. "Hands are underneath the ball," he said. "It's ridiculous."

Missed this earlier, but C.J. Ham essentially confirms here that he's retiring after 10 seasons with the Vikings, saying it's time for him to be with his family. What a run for the former UDFA from Augustana. Phenomenal football player and human being.

Justin Jefferson on supporting J.J. McCarthy: "With all of the criticism and all of the hateful messages he's probably been getting, he can cut on the TV on SportsCenter, they can talk negatively about him. Just trying to be that person for him that he can always lean on and talk to."

Aaron Jones is genuinely very excited to play his first home game at U.S. Bank Stadium and hear the SKOL chant. “It’s contagious. When you’re on the other sideline, you’re trying not to clap, you’re trying not to get into it.”

Kevin O'Connell on the final play: "Looking back, I wish I would've clocked it and not tried to steal one there." Kirk Cousins had some trouble hearing O'Connell in his headset and the play resulted in a game-ending interception.
