Vikings Winners & Losers: Wentz Beats McCarthy? | Ep. 109 – UK & Ireland Vikings Fan Club Podcast

Carson Wentz looked every inch the experienced QB2, while J.J. McCarthy left Vikings fans with more questions than answers. Is there genuine cause for concern, or is writing him off after one preseason appearance “absolute ridiculousness”? BDR, TPJ and Daz react to the Minnesota Vikings’ preseason win over the New York Giants and name their biggest winners and losers. Myles Price strengthens his roster case, Aaron Jones and Jordan Mason power a promising new-look running game, and Jay Ward delivers one of the hits of the night. The crew also discuss Kyler Murray’s brief debut, Jamal Adams’ season-ending injury, Ivan Pace Jr.’s coverage concerns, Ty Felton’s costly drop, the Johnny Hekker–Brett Thorson punting battle, and difficult outings for Caleb Banks and “Big Citrus” Domonique Orange. Plus, there is a Ravens preview and a special congratulations for fellow Vikings fan Amy Hunt. Who impressed you most against the Giants—and should Wentz now be the clear QB2?
