  QB J.J. McCarthy impresses in first competitive practice since torn meniscus

Anyone that can cut and paste this The Athletic article? Again, not sure how much he could have 'impressed' in an OTA, but would love to hear what KOC and maybe some other players said. Just glad he's back, healthy and stronger.

  OT: bacon wrapped smoked chicken breast
Posted by: Montana Tom - 05-29-2025, 07:46 AM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (8)

Never done this before.

Marinated three breasts in Mr Yoshida's teriyaki sauce since this morning.
Wrapped 3 breasts in thick-sliced bacon w/toothpicks to hold them in place.
Interesting...the internal temp (shooting for 160F) varied significantly between the three pieces of meat.
Bacon didn't quite seem "cooked" enough.
So I did a reverse sear at the end, flipped them over and kicked the heat up to @350F for about 10 minutes...nice touch on the bacon.
Very juicy and tender (and fully done).  Probably could have cut a total of 10-15 minutes off time in smoker.

Bottom line:  the Trophy wife strongly approved!

First time doing chicken on the smoker.

I know...I'm a newbie at this...last weekend I did ribeye steaks...wow.  each thing is a new story.

  Johnson translation: Stop whining, optics are important
Posted by: StickierBuns - 05-29-2025, 06:41 AM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (5)

“Early in the process we sat down and watched some tape from a year ago and we talked it through,” Johnson said. “It’s like, ‘Do we really want to? Is this what we want to look like or not?’ We come to an agreement, ‘No, it’s not, OK, we learn from it, we move on to the next thing.’ Body language is a huge thing. Demeanor. We don’t want to be a palms-up team where we’re questioning everything. No, no, no — to me that’s a little bit of a sign of weakness. We don’t want to exhibit that from anybody on the team.” - Ben Johnson on Caleb

Very interesting. Johnson trying to bring culture into Chicago. Caleb fell all over himself backtracking on the 'wanting to come to Minnesota' narrative from the book yesterday.

  Vrabel not exactly happy with The Diva

"A video of Diggs partying on a yacht and handing off what appeared to be a substance in a baggie to a woman went viral on social media this week. Vrabel told reporters the team was aware of it, and that he wants his players to make "great decisions" on and off the field. Vrabel added that any conversation he's had with Diggs will remain between him and the club."

  Jalen Ramsey
Posted by: supafreak84 - 05-28-2025, 09:31 AM - Forum: The Longship - Replies (17)

It sounds like he is expected to be cut after June 1st and the Vikings are expected to be in the mix due to Ramsey having worked with closely with KOC in Los Angeles and their relationship they have.

I just wonder if this isn't the exact reason we haven't signed someone like Jack Jones yet? Its been stunningly quiet. We know the score on Asante Samuel. If the Vikings are able to sign Ramsey, does it take our defense into elite, top-5 territory? I'd have to think barring injury that it absolutely does
