Speaker 1 (00:02):
Happy Monday. Good job with the Monday Morning montage. Mister Nordo,
did it hurt putting it together?

Speaker 2 (00:11):
That's an awesome song and I never want to hear
it again. That's what I felt like as I was
listening to turn the page.

Speaker 3 (00:19):
It's like Brian McKnight's One Last Cry.

Speaker 2 (00:21):
Correct, I never want to hear that song, but it's
becoming an annual affair.

Speaker 3 (00:26):
I'm quite tired of it, quite bored with one Last Cry.

Speaker 2 (00:29):
Yeah, and similarly, yes, the idea of turning the page.

Speaker 3 (00:33):
I mean Seeger, I love Seeger. It's cool to hear
the song, not with.

Speaker 2 (00:37):
The pretense and the reasoning for turning said page on
a Monday morning.

Speaker 1 (00:41):
And those Hollywood nights I always love that one on
Thursday didn't exactly go the right way, And well, this
is nine to noon and our job desires and distraction
factor pleasures this time of the year greatly involved the
Minnesota vikings. So and I are turning the page off

(01:03):
those Hollywood Nights off last Thursday, and I don't know,
for me, the worst loss since that Dallas tobacle in
twenty twenty two. Question for the audience, have you turned
the page?

Speaker 4 (01:19):
So?

Speaker 3 (01:20):
What entails turning the page.

Speaker 1 (01:23):
Have you just closed the book on this Viking season,
which means you don't watch or listen or follow, or
have you turned the page to what still has a
puncher's chance to provide a happy ending? Red iron, blood
and gore and bastard like circumstances on one page. Then

(01:50):
the villain is slayed the next few pages, and there
seems like there's hope for something positive upright, and us
all right, here we go, here we go. Monday, Thursday
still stings. Saturday the other football team and the Christmas

(02:12):
Colors had nothing today as they turn the page Monday
on the first seven Minnesota Vikings games Thursday night, and
setting expectations for what nine to Noon believes, hopes and
pulls for. We'll offer up the next page and what

(02:36):
the pages should look like, and most of that part
will transpire tomorrow. The lasting effects of the let's say
pretend two by four that continually whacked on us Thursday night,
those Hollywood nights still has nine to Noon rather dizzy.

Speaker 3 (02:59):
And here's why.

Speaker 1 (03:02):
Just when you get healthy and come to your senses
off the Hollywood Nights, it's the freaking Lions next at
Ford Field, that just cannot be the uppercut to the
round house, Haymaker. We endure that Hollywood night. That's why

(03:27):
it's a turn the page Monday, setting up a page
turning Tuesday. That's why it's a turn the page Monday,
paving the way for pages turned on a Tuesday. Talkbacks
around nine to forty five on Minnesota Vikings related pages.

(03:47):
You want turned of what you've seen or what you've
heard into this next game off seven free iHeartRadio app microphone.

Speaker 3 (03:56):
You know the drill.

Speaker 1 (03:58):
It's a page turning Monday nine to now, and let's
begin with this. Let's please turn the page on elite
football mind dan Orlowski saying things like this.

Speaker 5 (04:12):
Hey, the Vikings were really disappointing on both sides of
the ball there at three and four. They're in the
bottom of the NFC North.

Speaker 3 (04:18):
How do you view this loss in particular?

Speaker 6 (04:22):
I think this is the most disappointing roster in football
right now. This is an organization that this offseason spent
the second most of free agent money in the NFL.
And this was a roster that was built in many
of our eyes to be like quarterback independent and one
this offensive line cannot protect on a consistent basis at all.

Speaker 3 (04:42):
The interior offensive line is very poor. To this run
defense has been.

Speaker 6 (04:47):
Ran all over this season, all over this year, and
it happened again last night. The Chargers came out, which
is like, here comes three tight ends run games.

Speaker 3 (04:55):
Stop it. I'm shocked because.

Speaker 6 (04:57):
I honestly thought that this team was built to say,
if you just that average quarterback play, you're an NFC
Championship contender. Anybody that wants to tell me Carson Wentz
is the issue right now in Minnesota, we can have
a conversation and I'll tell you out of your mind,
quarterback is not the problem in Minnesotta right now. JJ
McCarthy's not going to save them. Carson Wentz certainly is
not going to save them. This roster is unbelievably disappointing

(05:18):
right now.

Speaker 3 (05:22):
Okay, now, hold on, everybody, Yes, this is nine to noon.

Speaker 7 (05:26):
Okay, Spearfish's head just may have exploded. Hold on, my goodness, guys, guys,
nor do and I know what failure looks like professionally
and personally, and we recognize the only way.

Speaker 3 (05:42):
To turn a page is to hit the bottom. Yeah,
well that's part of the bottom. I think that's the bottom.
I hope it's the bottom.

Speaker 1 (05:49):
I mean, let's turn the page and dan Orlovsky's opinion
on the roster. All right, let's just start there. I mean,
dan Orlofsky low key. It is somewhat high key with
the head coach, but low Key loves the Minnesota Vikings,
loves the head coach, and loves the offensive approach to most,

(06:12):
if not all games.

Speaker 3 (06:14):
Can I get a witness on that?

Speaker 1 (06:15):
On Dano saying a bunch of good things about the
Vikings for many years.

Speaker 2 (06:19):
He has lauded the Purple and the Kevin O'Connell regime
for years.

Speaker 3 (06:22):
That is correct.

Speaker 1 (06:23):
So let's just start there, all right, turning the page
on what just was said, so he never says it again,
turning the page on the hard grave snaps Dallas Turner,
the running game, the run, defense, the injuries. Let's turn
the page and get better run from this roster when
close to healthy, maybe main man Dano dan Orlofsky praises

(06:50):
the roster because.

Speaker 3 (06:51):
The Vikings are winning games.

Speaker 1 (06:54):
Dano, what happened and it's time to turn the page
on what these Steelers started. Others have copied and done
so with success. The beefeaters who execute their toil in disguise,
from Darnell Washington for Pittsburgh to Scott Mattlock for the

(07:21):
LA Chargers. The Minnesota Vikings need to turn the page
post taste to brighter days. When teams load up the heavies,
and said heavies are loaded up in disguise. We're talking
about the tight ends and the fullbacks at times, along
with that extra offensive lineman that's a befeater. Not in disguise,

(07:47):
he's a beefeater. The ones in disguise, the tight ends
and the fullbacks. Holy cow, these beefeaters in disguise, well,
they're not offensive or defensive linemen. Instead, they win drives
and games for teams in the guys of skill, guys
who might go use check on you. Teams are utilizing

(08:13):
non obvious players and regular extra offensive lineman to destroy
the Minnesota Vikings with their running games, and the Chargers
did much of it between the tackles those Hollywood Knights,
and it's time to learn about scheme and commitment involving

(08:33):
a full back slash defensive lineman named Scott Mattlock. Anybody
knows Scott Mattlock is anybody have any idea. Who's got
Thank you La Chargers, third year Boise State six, four
to three hundred, athletic and fast. He's the one who
wore forty four, never scored a touchdown in his life,

(08:55):
and he's active quite a bit. Here's the rub, here's
the tell, here's the take and the talker and the
page that needs to be turned on this something called
Scott Mattlock thirty eight snaps the three games up to
the Vikings game forty one against Minnesota by far a

(09:17):
career high. I'm like Scott Matlock, you say so. I
watched it back. Nobody could stop this monster. What a masochist.
Nobody could stop this monster. And they ran for more
than two hundred with Kamani Vidal. Just listen to that.
And this Scott Matlock had a ton to do with it.

(09:40):
And here's the page turn Van Ginkle has to play
and that'll help. And they just it has to help.
I mean, they just got run over by Commani Vidal.
So the details should be on point and they'll need
to be. And here's why. It's the Lions. Jamir Gibbs

(10:04):
has scored nine touchdowns against US the last four games.

Speaker 3 (10:08):
You want to change the conversation.

Speaker 1 (10:10):
Win some games, and they have a bonafide beefeater they
know how to use.

Speaker 3 (10:17):
It's Dan Skipper.

Speaker 1 (10:19):
Oh yes, he's a bona fide beefeater, going unbalanced with
the extra offensive lineman. He's not Scott matt Locke, but
this guy does this for a trade. It's got Matt
locked forty two? Are you kidding me with this? Thirty
eight snaps the three games up to it forty one
against us. That's a tell. It's a problem. Pack of

(10:41):
lunch this Sunday. With all that, and we are turning
the page on all that has been gashed the first seven?
Are you turning the page and all that has been
gassed the first seven?

Speaker 3 (10:54):
Can I get a witness? I'm turning the page.

Speaker 2 (10:57):
I need a new story, thank you, I need a
new bit, need something else than what we've seen through
the first seven.

Speaker 3 (11:03):
Turn that page.

Speaker 1 (11:04):
Much more page turning soon. So let's break from the
book and the turning of the pages. And weekend rap
heurtesy of Hopman cooling and heating, hopmanheating dot nap to
make sure that furnace is running right mentioned nine to

(11:26):
noon and or the weekend rap. Yeah, I can't hurt
your tea. Wolves got the money last night.

Speaker 3 (11:33):
Awesome, awesome by the great crowd on hand too.

Speaker 5 (11:35):
See if the Wolves get finished this author up by five,
They've got the ball.

Speaker 3 (11:38):
Julius frees himself on.

Speaker 4 (11:39):
Seaka step back creak the line jumper could thirty one
for Julius Randall.

Speaker 1 (11:46):
Julius Randall mixing in thirty one points under the cover
of darkness on a Sunday night against the rather toothless
Indiana Pacers needed him last night. Yeah, thank you with
winning like copyright that ban door Leans. You're still having fun.
You were the only one.

Speaker 3 (12:06):
He has no chat.

Speaker 1 (12:08):
They're the only one. You're still having fun. You were
the only one. You were the only one to win
a game from Hollywood Nights all the way through last night,
the only one, and even lost on Friday just to
keep the mojo a lot and played three minutes, Rudy

(12:29):
had a fat double double and Bones Highland played eighteen
more minutes than I ever thought I'd see Bones Highland
play in these uniforms. Now they have the Denver Nuggets
tonight Timberwolves, Denver Nuggets tonight, eight thirty Target Center. That'll
be all funky and sweet a rodg failed to get
the money last night to snap the up rush on

(12:52):
throws the mill cutting love to the five the nut.

Speaker 8 (13:00):
Night Wow touchdown Green Bay. They beach Chuck Clark on
a closer twenty four yard touchdown reception.

Speaker 3 (13:10):
Hey Wayne, why don't you put your pants back on?

Speaker 1 (13:13):
Slappy sinny somewhere else Sinny some r l eleven thirty
eleven thirty five Green Bay improved to five one on one.

Speaker 2 (13:22):
Where was mcaren on that highlight? By the way, I
needed a hup? Who yeah, get in.

Speaker 1 (13:29):
It's because Wayne thought he was talking too much and said.

Speaker 9 (13:33):
He can't talk that Wayne.

Speaker 1 (13:35):
Take it seriously, All hail the Baltimore Ravens, who actually
did the Minnesota Vikings a solid.

Speaker 3 (13:41):
Derrick Henry alone in the back for you give us
the Henry running left. They're coming in. Touchdown Ravens.

Speaker 1 (13:53):
Ben's baby Bears got beat by quarterback Tyler Huntley whose
nickname is Snoop, and he and former Bear Roquan Smith
smoked our division foe. The Vikings get the Ravens a
week from Sunday here, then the Bears the next week
also at us Bank Stadium. Now sure we are turning

(14:15):
the page on some early season bikes negatives, and sadly
there's a fair amount to unpack. Fortunately, none of those
items include losing to these guys.

Speaker 4 (14:27):
Two minutes to go in the fourth quarter, Kurston Gold
Jets at the four yard line of Cincinnati. They need
a touchdown to take the league down by six. I
formation and now Ruckert motion's right, the long step back,
Brice Hall toss sweep to the right, Priese Hall, He's
gonna throw the ball.

Speaker 3 (14:46):
Pump Swanz throws back at the end song It's caught Lason.

Speaker 4 (14:50):
Taylor the option pass right by Brice Hall for a touchdown.
Then the Jets are a point after away from the league.

Speaker 3 (15:00):
Wow.

Speaker 1 (15:01):
So black O Jamar and t Higgins salt some oap
drilling Pittsburgh then lose it home to the own seven Jets,
who were down Garrett Wilson as Sauce Gardner and at
Justin Fields, a quarterback.

Speaker 3 (15:14):
A few days after, Jets.

Speaker 1 (15:15):
Owner Woody Johnson blamed the whole winless season on Fields,
it's always nice when the owner gives you a VHOTO
confidence like that. We'll just leave that there and may
God be with them all when they had to play him.
The Gophers got drilled by the Hawkeyes, and PJ. Fleck
joins around ten forty five. That started a local sports
double header Saturday that finished with a whimper tonight.

Speaker 9 (15:38):
Now the Wild play the Utah Mammoth a five game
winning streak and it's free nothing, Nick schmallt's a tip
from the high slot. Oh god, And I don't blame
Gustason on that one either, but I mean, you're four
fifty eight in and you're down three.

Speaker 3 (15:56):
Rep hey h oh.

Speaker 1 (16:00):
Speaking of a potential future hof former Golden Gopher Logan
Cooley ho f, he's the hottest player in the NHL.

Speaker 3 (16:09):
Right.

Speaker 1 (16:10):
Five goals over two games and two against the Wild.
That was super special. Just blitz them in like two seconds,
as as JOEO shared. Then they lost last night at
home and in overtime to the lowly Sharks. This is
a Christmas color This is a bit of a Christmas
Colors calamity. We're still early in the season. Pierre Marc

(16:31):
Bouchard joins about about an hour from now, talk about
a twenty fifth anniversary of Minnesota Wild hockey. A booch
one of the guys PMB about an hour from now,
and that's the weekend wrap. Don't let a failing furnace
cause a calamity in your home. Get a tune up,
join the team, have them maybe save you thousands on

(16:53):
a new unit. Worked that nine to new magic if needed,
and start at Hoffman Heating net al right, back to
the lesson at hand for a second, Nordo, Yeah, can
you turn a page for us and what we've seen
herd and or endured before we give away some money

(17:14):
and talk about TimberTech and push those talkbacks and move
on to bikes bites.

Speaker 3 (17:18):
I can't say that I'm happy to, but I will.

Speaker 1 (17:21):
Extra offensive lineman Fred Johnson into the right and they're
gonna pass out of it, and they're gonna throw deep
Jailing Hurts.

Speaker 8 (17:28):
To Davontae Smith caught at the thirty to the twenty
touchdown Philadelphia Eagles a seventy nine yard touchdown pass from
Jailing Hurts to Dafonte Smith and it was.

Speaker 3 (17:43):
A beauty and the Eagles lead twenty nine.

Speaker 2 (17:46):
I've seen a trend, PA, as we try to turn pages.
I've seen a trend in the previous chapter three of
the four losses that featured some tough matchups specifically in
the secondary and some long explosives, some of them like
you heard there turning into long touchdowns. And even at
the beginning of that highlight, did you notice something there, Pa,

(18:08):
listen to this.

Speaker 3 (18:09):
You mentioned the bee feeders.

Speaker 1 (18:10):
Ptra offensive Lineman, Fred Johnson into the right.

Speaker 3 (18:14):
Here's a twass out of it. But they pass out
of it. They can run out of it, they can
pass out of it. They dagger us out of it.
I forgot with the b feeders up front.

Speaker 1 (18:25):
Whether just listen to these names that have been Fred Jets,
Darnell Washington, Fred Johnson, and Scott Mattlock.

Speaker 3 (18:34):
Okay, and they have been key, Yes they have. We're
turning the page. Stop it.

Speaker 2 (18:40):
So there's a Van Ginkle twist to this as well
because of the impotence in regard to the pass rush
what we are seeing, and we've we've gone up against
specifically with Rogers and then you have Hertz and and Herbert.
We're going up against some good qbs and if you
give them time, they're going to find those matchups. They're

(19:01):
gonna find DeVante Smith over the top in what is
almost like a lottery ticket. The one time Isaiah Rodgers
has been out hustled or outsprinted this season happens for
seventy nine and DeVante Smith's having the game of his career,
but other ends of it, specifically now in two consecutive games,
Josh Mettelis because the quarterback has that extra second and

(19:23):
a half to scramble to slither his way out of
the pocket.

Speaker 3 (19:26):
Hurts so smooth, Herbert, so athletic.

Speaker 2 (19:29):
You have Josh Mettelis stuck on freaking aj Brown for
five seconds.

Speaker 3 (19:33):
It's a walk away touchdown.

Speaker 2 (19:34):
They're playing street ball in our house, and it's unacceptable.
Then the next four days later primetime, so fine, I
think Harris, what's his first name, Nick Harris? I forget
what his name was, the wide receiver for the Chargers,
Trey Harris. Excuse me, five six real time seconds for
him to run across and guess who's stuck on him,

(19:56):
Josh Mettelis. The issues we saw, and then the abil
of a Aaron Rodgers to systematically pick apart this defense
in Dublin. So three of the four losses have featured
ultimately coverage issues. So we're ripping Josh Mittelis. But the
foundation of it is the four or five real time

(20:16):
seconds that these high enders are getting back there to
pick apart, find the right matchup. Yavokudah, Lad McConkey the
tied to a post line that you had at the
end of the highlight, that's a walk in touchdown. Sadly Okudah,
it feels like he's had more concussions this season than passes.
Defense you give Herbert, you give Hurts, you give Rogers,

(20:38):
and coming up turning the page, you give Goff four
or five real time seconds to find his guys. It's
going to be a blood path at Ford Field on Sunday.
So I want to turn the page on what ultimately
has been a pass defense that can't put enough pressure
on qbs and hangs our secondary out to drive.

Speaker 3 (20:58):
Can I get a witness?

Speaker 1 (20:59):
A man Well said, talkbacks about twenty minutes from now.
What are some things with the Minnesota Vikings on which
you would like to turn the page? Yeah, Vikings related
talkbacks in page turning fashion about nine for ninety seven ish,
that's part of the timber Tech. What's on deck set

(21:20):
list for the nine to noon presentation? Bikes, bikes around
the corner the analyst about ten oh three, Pierre Marc
Bouchard about ten twenty and PJ. Fleck joins a ten
forty five pete Fox around that time and down to
the eleven two five, and then the Sultan of Smug
gets his weekly spot about eleven thirty five in order

(21:41):
produces and I'm Paul Allen. Thank you very much for
listening to nine to noon at FM one hundred point three.

Speaker 3 (21:46):
Kfam comes the money, Grab.

Speaker 2 (21:51):
The fan and two men in a junk truck want

Speaker 3 (22:04):
Com the ball Welcome back nine to noon.

Speaker 2 (22:18):
It is time for vikes, Bites, Bikes bites brought to
you by a Thousand Hills lifetime grazed grass fedg beef
beef and you can shop online. Box of meat shows
up at your doorstep. What a beautiful thing that is.
You got Kowalski's, Coburn's locations, your local co ops. They're
proud sponsors of Gophers Athletics. They're stinging from the weekend
and trying to turn the page.

Speaker 3 (22:37):
Just like we are.

Speaker 2 (22:38):
And they're up there in Clearwater, Minnesota, delivering fresh, amazing beef.
Thank you, Matt and everybody to the Minnesota Vikings. In
the vein of turning the page on a Monday, we
lament to Tuesday. We put it all back together again.
But it is Monday, so I'm lamenting, and I'd like
to turn the page on stuff like.

Speaker 3 (22:56):
This, pa Enisota on third down.

Speaker 1 (22:58):
This is a doozy third and eleven from their own
seventeen Carson Wentz pat.

Speaker 3 (23:03):
To pull the ball when he gets to both back.

Speaker 1 (23:05):
To pass, and now he is stacked back at the
eight yard line.

Speaker 3 (23:11):
Sacks.

Speaker 2 (23:12):
There have been twenty eight of them on Vikings quarterbacks.
Pa nineteen on Wentz, nine on the kid QB in
those two games before you hurt the ankle, and if
you're doing math on it, twenty eight in total seven games.
That means the Vikings average twenty excuse me, four sacks
per contest.

Speaker 3 (23:31):
Now I'm curious. Okay, you know that's fine.

Speaker 2 (23:33):
Vikings three and four and twenty eight sacks sounds like
a lot. Well, it is because only two teams have
sustained more to their quarterbacks in twenty twenty five. That
would be a cool highlight. They got off the schneid.
The New York Jets have sustained thirty one, the one
win team, and I think the fellow one win Tennessee Titans.

Speaker 3 (23:53):
I knew you were gonna say that.

Speaker 2 (23:54):
Thirty one and thirty four respectively maybe considered by most
many for sure to be two of the worst operations
in the entire NFL. That is the current the current
covenant upon which our favorite team sits in regard to
protecting our quarterback and keeping them upright. I want to
turn the page. I need to see if it's Carson,

(24:15):
if it's JJ, if it's Brosmer. I don't care who
the quarterback is. I think Orlowski. Despite it being as
scathing as it was, really hit on the fact that
there are so many other things outside of the QB.

Speaker 3 (24:26):
To address one of them.

Speaker 2 (24:28):
I need this Minnesota moving company to turn the page
and at some point throughout the week come together and
find their way at Ford Field to keep Aiden Hutchinson
off our quarterbacks back Spearfish.

Speaker 1 (24:40):
We care, we follow closely. It's a distraction factor for
us this time of the year. We get to turn
the page all right, and to turn the page is
letting out in therapeutic Davenport of lovelike fashion, what what
is gnawing and what's causing the teeth and what's working

(25:01):
on nine to noon. That's what we get to do
now with the Minnesota Moving Company. It's very tough to
win games when you don't have both of your offensive tackles.

Speaker 3 (25:11):
Yes, all right, now, you know.

Speaker 1 (25:12):
In the we had some switching around in the Browns
game and school goes over here and Hubert starting there
and all that, and they found a way to win
a game.

Speaker 3 (25:20):
All right.

Speaker 1 (25:21):
That that is an outlier compared to most teams when
they don't have their offensive tackles to wit. Joe Ault
with the LA Chargers, all right, Tatino Grace product, fantastic,
one of the better tackles in the NFL. Didn't play
three games, they lost all of them. Comes back and

(25:41):
they're looking like the twenty seven Yankees. I mean he's
picking up everybody all the time. And the quarterback played
more confidently. So getting the preferred Minnesota Moving Company or
at least four fifths thereof for the game at Ford Field.
Maybe your quarterback is JJ. Now that's a page turner.

(26:01):
All right, we don't know what the other page looks like,
but at least there is another page.

Speaker 3 (26:07):
Bikes bites.

Speaker 2 (26:08):
Speaking of turning the page, we want to hear from you.
Get those talkbacks in next segment and opportunity we'll play
some talkbacks in what you would like to turn the
page on, and maybe somebody'll talk about this.

Speaker 3 (26:19):
Wentz goes back to pass.

Speaker 1 (26:20):
What is a fastball to the right side, and that
pass ball went right to a number up the LA Chargers.
It's an interception with a pass intended for Jefferson R.
Jane mickins that clens and rookie picked it off and
he returned to fifteen yards and just like.

Speaker 2 (26:36):
That, Yeah, turning the page on, throwing it to the
other team PA.

Speaker 3 (26:40):
The Minnesota Vikings.

Speaker 2 (26:41):
Have thrown a total of eight interceptions in twenty twenty five.
And the problem with that, well, only three organizations have
thrown more interceptions than the Minnesota Vikings, the Raiders, Gino Smith,
the wheels are coming off.

Speaker 3 (26:55):
Of that thing. I guess the Jets and the Titans.

Speaker 2 (26:57):
Well, no, actually, sadly, the Titans have only thrown six.

Speaker 1 (27:02):
Where are the Jets? Well, look at these Jets only
three picks now because the owner never lets justin fields throw,
probably for good reason. The Minnesota Vikings have thrown eight interceptions. Again,
only three teams, the Raiders, Dolphins, and Niners, have thrown
more picks over the course of the first seven games.
That kind of plays into a more grander conversation. I

(27:25):
know we might teach our kids the value of sharing.
What is that in your hands right now? I was
given a gift this morning because I haven't been in
studio a ton of late Yeah, football related travel. What
is that to Paul Allen from Chris Hockey, Jared Wells,
Pete Bursich, Ben Leeber, Eric NordWest, Meetzas, Nick Madden, Dave,

(27:46):
Chad and Muss So they'll be poopy?

Speaker 3 (27:48):
Dave?

Speaker 2 (27:49):
Is that like a coffee or like a wine earn
that you would yabbers.

Speaker 3 (27:53):
And the moosey? Well, you tell me what it is.
It's plastics. Yeah, it's a little john. It's a Vikings
little john.

Speaker 2 (28:01):
Oh, that's so that's for that's for bathroom breaks when
you're in the booth.

Speaker 3 (28:07):
But that's what it is. That's that.

Speaker 1 (28:11):
That is possibly the greatest gift I've ever been given
in my life.

Speaker 2 (28:17):
Yeah, you could sit there. You can call it on
third down and relieve yourself.

Speaker 3 (28:21):
I'm so touched.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Thank you very much, thank you, and hopefully none of
you ever incur prostate. Hopefully none of you ever need
to go down this road. However, I am very, very
touched by this, and I love each and every one
of you.

Speaker 2 (28:36):
Yeah, they ran out of gatorade bottle, so I think, yeah,
that's a thoughtful gift.

Speaker 3 (28:40):
That was nice.

Speaker 2 (28:41):
Thank the good idea, muss good idea, Mike Mussman. Yeah,
I must say the turnover situation the teams, the teams
in the negative, the team's minus four in the take give.
This year, which you start looking at teams with a
worst take give, you're getting into Panthers, Raiders, Dolphins, Commanders, Ravens, Jets,
territory in terms of the turnovers. We teach our kids

(29:02):
the value of sharing, PA, but I'm going to be
selfish on this. I want to stop giving the ball
away and I want to take it more often. That's
something I'd love to turn the page on, something I
got used to. I loved the twenty twenty four story
of not giving yet taking. I'm not seeing it thus far.
In twenty twenty five. I'm happy to turn the page
on it.

Speaker 1 (29:22):
Loved it off one season with Andrew Van Ginkle, you'd
be like hohm. So I think the gank, the gank,
the gig has not been on fire five of seven times.
And in one of those games he played, he only
played eight plays, but I think he had like two
sacks and eight plays.

Speaker 3 (29:37):
Yea, he did so sweet.

Speaker 1 (29:39):
Just play reading between the lines and playing off some
things the coach, Kevin O'Connell is shared lately and said
KO will be with nine to now at eleven am
tomorrow twin City's Orthopedics Performance Center. It is x's and o's.
We do it weekly from the Viking facility. Just reading
between the lines here feels like this is a bit game.

(30:01):
And I know it's against the Lions, and I know
it's against Jamiir Gibbs, and I know it's the Lion's doogee,
but nevertheless, just great to have bank Ben Ginkle back
in the mix. If and or when he is back
in the mix, we are the gank. The gank, the
gink is on fire, fans, So maybe that'll play into

(30:21):
exactly what you just said and we'll start taking.

Speaker 2 (30:24):
Absolutely my final bite byke in terms of turning the page.
I mean there are many more, but to that end,
just simply enough. Whether it's Ford Field, it's Soldier Field,
it's our own house, it's so fi, I don't care
where this is. Five of the seven games PA, the
team has gone without a touchdown in the entire first half.

Speaker 3 (30:45):
So we know what's up against us.

Speaker 2 (30:46):
I mean, if we're just looking one week, we can't
go to halftime without getting in the end zone at
Ford Field and have a chance to win that game.
That just feels like a near zero percenter when it
comes to trying to win football games on the road anywhere,
much last four Field and what those kiddies are going
to be bringing with Gibbs, Montgomery, a'm and ROTC. So
five of seven games for an offense. By the way,

(31:08):
I think it was twenty twenty two you mentioned it,
and I know that the Cowboys. The Cowboys game was
a debacle, but you bounce back four days later on
Turkey Day and you put up thirty some points on
the on the Patriots that day, So you know the
ability to bounce back all of those things. But twenty
twenty two one trademark PA was scoring on opening drives,
scoring opening drive touchdowns, putting yourself in the catbird seat

(31:30):
from an early lead standpoint, but then being able to
really get all the toys out of that bag. In
terms of your offensive play calling, you talk about being
on the field for forty minutes last Thursday. Okay, we'll
put more points on the board, and sustaining offensive drives
helps with that.

Speaker 3 (31:45):
So all in all, turning the page.

Speaker 2 (31:47):
I just need this offense, specifically out of the gates,
to be stronger and more effective. We got to turn
the page on not scoring touchdowns in the first half.

Speaker 1 (31:55):
And Vike's bites are Slash were provided.

Speaker 2 (31:59):
By Thousand Hills Lifetime Graves, grass fed Bee.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
Your talkbacks around the corner come on in here. Things
on which you would prefer the Minnesota Vikings to turn
the page off the first seven and get after it
at the free iHeart audio app. Some talkbacks are around
the corner. Walking up to the analyst Pete Persich at
about ten oh three. This is nine to noon, ourccers.

Speaker 6 (32:34):
Speaking of turning the page, I think I'm turning the
page in this season.

Speaker 3 (32:38):
I think we know what's coming from it. That's potentially
a top five draft pick. So my question for you is,
if we do get a top five draft pick, is
there anyone you guys got your eyes on.

Speaker 1 (32:50):
Guy, thanks for the talkback. Thank you very much for
listening to nine to noon main man, Well nine to noon,
and yes I am speaking for Nordo. You could tell
us who the first overall pick in the draft is
supposed to be and we would say we couldn't pick
that person out of a two person lineup standing next
to debtl shrimp.

Speaker 3 (33:11):
I always love that one. So no, we're not ready
to turn the page that way. No, we are not.
How about this some lamenting on a Monday? Whata what up?

Speaker 4 (33:22):
Nord On?

Speaker 3 (33:22):
This is Charles on EP. Yeah, I've got something that
I don't think we're going to be able to turn
the page on.

Speaker 6 (33:27):
We're never going to be able to shake if we
were going to draft Michael.

Speaker 3 (33:31):
Finnich, should we have drafted Jared Verse, We're also not
going to be able to shake.

Speaker 9 (33:37):
If we should have kept Daniel Jones, should we kept
Sam Donald. This is going to persist the entire year
and continue in the next year.

Speaker 10 (33:45):
You let me know, But I don't think we're going
to be able to shake that, y'all.

Speaker 1 (33:49):
I'm Charles, thank you, unless you turn the page and
the next page eliminates the villainous nature of the crafty
and sav adversaries and provides pots of gold at the
ends of rainbows and provides W after W after W

(34:12):
after W. Then I guess we can stop thinking about
some things. Charles brought up.

Speaker 9 (34:18):
Ever fall on theisy train, Ever fall on the train?

Speaker 2 (34:30):
Yeah, well to the talkback machine, Quaycy did come up.

Speaker 5 (34:34):
Hey, Pa, I'd like to turn the page on our
GM Quacy. Let's look at his draft history. Let's just
sing a lot a couple of people. Number one Dallas Turner.
How many picks did we give up to move up
to get Dallas Turner? Three or four, I'm not sure.
And then let's think about this also. Now, obviously he's
been hurt, but there were six quarterbacks available in the

(34:57):
draft that two years ago, and he possibly took the
worst one, thanks.

Speaker 3 (35:03):
And played eight quarters.

Speaker 1 (35:04):
But yeah, emphas and he wanted he We have three
wins and he single handedly won one of them in
a single quarter.

Speaker 3 (35:11):
Yes. Well, I'm really really glad.

Speaker 1 (35:15):
That the talkbacker came in with the approach he did,
because that's part of turning the page, it is letting
out and relieving yourselves of the pain and or the
agony and or the consternation with a little John, and

(35:36):
and and use the little John. If you need to lose,
use the little John. Whatever the little John is, okay.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
Three two.

Speaker 1 (35:42):
But despite not knowing the details of contracts for contracts
that don't belong to me, that would be pretty much
everybody else in the world. I think you just got
some form of an extention into the season. So let's
play the rest of the games out and then see

(36:06):
where all the metaphorical kIPS fall.

Speaker 3 (36:10):
I like this one.

Speaker 11 (36:11):
This is Tony in Nashville. How about we turned the
page on those stupid penalties, especially the special teams and
pre schmat penalties. I'm ready to see them go scoll y'all.

Speaker 1 (36:24):
Scoll y'all, govenant collapse on turning the page on the penalties.

Speaker 3 (36:30):
Yes, now there.

Speaker 1 (36:32):
I think we have the most penalties in the NFL
at one point for like three and a half four hours.
Then another team played in an afternoon game and they
were egragious and the stripes were not overly officious, and
we got passed. Might even be by Jacksonville. Then we
had a buybe so we got passed by several teams.
Then we played a game, then we started passing teams.

(36:55):
So it's it's a juggernaut. It's it's a vicious circle
that continues to turn with the pre snaps and the
penalties and everything. But my man opted to get into
the talkback machine and turn the page. So what are
the expectations off pages that are turned. Well, you'll find

(37:19):
all of that out tomorrow nine to noon when we
are at Twin Cities Orthopedics Performance Center. Though as of now,
we are ninth in the NFL.

Speaker 2 (37:29):
Now this includes some teams that have played eight games,
but we have gone from being as bad as it
could get to ninth highest total penalties in the NFL,
and from a pre snap perspective, the team is currently
eighth and now second among those that have only played
seven games, second to the Bears. And they're twenty six
but twenty two pre snap penalties fifty five flags in totality.

Speaker 3 (37:52):
That's special. That's where we're at. Hey, we're improving.

Speaker 1 (37:55):
Peter Schrager, formerly of NFL Network, now heavy hitter for
esp In Packers are bigger NFC threats to get to
the Super Bowl than the Eagles.

Speaker 3 (38:06):
Oh what about the Lions? What about the Lions? Yeah,
the Lions.

Speaker 1 (38:12):
You know the team we play next game with the
running back that has nine touchdowns in the last four
games against us, and goodness a quarterback who knows what
playing in the Super Bowl is like. But anyway, this
isn't about any of them. This is about turning the page.
Damn it, like to turn the page on scheming up
things and just go back to like simple football.

Speaker 5 (38:35):
I feel like we're just being way too.

Speaker 3 (38:38):
I don't know, we're trying to like be too.

Speaker 1 (38:41):
Cute and maybe we just need to play football with
JJ McCarthy. That's all brilliant, well done, JJ, authentic, pure
honest kind Yeah, we're we're with you on the whole thing.
Don't exactly know what simplistic scheme means or the simplistic

(39:02):
nature of the request. I don't exactly know what that
means because through the run here with Kevin O'Connell, we're
generally used to seeing players catch passes and run free
or like go over the top and be free and
get into the inenzoon. So again, having not having your

(39:24):
preferred offensive tackles and having that whole thing be sketchy
and dicey and topsy turvy plays into the entire thing,
and that page is turned. That page is turned into
the Ford Field game. Why because I'm guessing. I'm thinking
Darrisaw goes the distance, O'Neill returns and goes the distance.

(39:44):
That ain't a bad thing. Now with the former Michigan
Wolverine potentially under center JJ McCarthy, that's not a bad
thing either. So we can start seeing what this prize
das set looks like game after game after game, quarter
after quarter, half after half, Because, like I said last week,
with JJ McCarthy, what do we know about him? We

(40:05):
know we see him for a minute, then he's gone
for a long time, and then we see him for
a minute, and then he's gone for.

Speaker 3 (40:12):
A long time.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
So we just have to stop all of that madness
and turn the page to consistency. If it's bad, it's bad.
If it's good, that's better. But if it's good, it's good.
But at least let's see it game after game after game.

Speaker 3 (40:30):
Yeah, guys, it's mel from Alaska.

Speaker 10 (40:33):
Yeah, we need to turn the page on long developing plays,
drop seven step drop backs, chuck it down the field
as far as you can and start running the ball.
That's what O'Connell needs to start turning the page on.

Speaker 1 (40:49):
Well, I appreciate you, man, And if you happen to
be on one of those those cool vessels that navigated
the Bearing Sea and you happen to be on the
show Deadliest, I got all your albums all right. The
simplistic nature of the way that was laid out provided
no context. Maybe there's not time for context, why because

(41:10):
it's talked back, not talk with.

Speaker 3 (41:13):
But that's okay.

Speaker 1 (41:13):
So I'm going to turn the page on what I
want my response to be because I don't feel like
doing that on this Monday. We got plenty of time
to do it during the course of the season. But
there's a little context involved there with game shape, scores, personnel,
this the whole thing. But thank you very much for
listening to nine to noon adjacent to the Burying Straight

(41:35):
and from a part of a vessel that negotiates at
sea on the Deadliest Catch.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
We'll be right back
