It’s fascinating to hear them talking about how the Bengals completely fell apart with Joe Burrows and how their season is over. Meanwhile, the Vikings have lost Justin Jefferson and Kirk Cousins, as well as lots of other guys, and keep winning. Says a lot about the team.
A big difference with this is the schedule. The AFC is a lot tougher and right now all three of the other teams in Cincinnati’s division are in the playoffs. The Vikings would struggle more if the Bears or Packers were any good.
We can always find something to nitpick about the national narrative but for now I’m just going to enjoy the ride.
The Vikings as an organization are 50x better than the Bengals. Without Burrow that franchise is nothing
The difference is no one views the Vikings as SB contenders
They were .500 WITH Burrow
