Purple FTW! Podcast - Week 17 - Vikings-Bears Recap - Can't Hardly Wait Dec 29, 2014

Show notes

Our Minnesota Vikings went out on a high note Sunday as the Men of the North held off the Chicago Bears 13-9 Sunday at The Bank.The Vikings end the season a 7-9 and considering all that has happened this season with injuries, Adrian, & other off field issues, 7-9 is a hell of an achievement for 1st year head coach Mike Zimmer and rookie QB Teddy Bridgewater. The future is looking bright as Teddy looks legit and is poised to move forward as the face of the franchise. (Sorry, Adrian. #ByeFelicia)2014 Was a Fun Ride Talkie Points Include:• The Weekly Referendum on Teddy Bridgewater• Mr. Mankato Love• Asiata Appreciation• Audie Cole Respect• The Zimmer Hellfire Defense Rebounded• Harrison Smith is Elite• Jared Allen Loveletter • Chad Greenway. The End?• The Last Game of The Christian Ponder Era• PurpleFTW Helmet StickersAll that and other "Can't Wait for 2015" jibber-jabber on this edition of the #PurpleFTW Podcast!An Andy Carlson Joint.Follow us on Twitter @PurpleForTheWinVisit the Website: purpleftw.comSubscribe to Podcast on iTunes: purpleftw.com/itunesWe're also on Stitcher! purpleftw.com/stitcherMusic for the Purple FTW! podcast is created by & produced by deeB.To hear more of his tracks, check out: soundcloud.com/deeb

Show notes

Julie DiCaro (@JulieDiCaro) of 87.7 The Game Chicago stopped by to preview the Vikings-Bears season finale Sunday at The Bank.It won't have the same cachet as the finales of Serial, Sons of Anarchy, or even Dexter. But if the Vikings (6-9) kick some Bears (5-10) ass in the final week of the season, it will go a long way to endear purple fans to Mike Zimmer and Teddy "The Future" Bridgewater even more.We discuss our enemy in depth and probe for their weaknesses.

Purple FTW! Podcast - Week 16 - Vikings-Dolphins Recap - Serial Vikings Dec 22, 2014

Show notes

One Story. Of a young and not ready for prime time team. Told one week at a time. This is Serial Vikings. Our Minnesota Fightin' Vikings fell 37-35 to the Dolphins Sunday afternoon at half-full Sun Life Stadium.Mental errors, loss of composure, offensive line failures, and defensive collapses highlighted a disappointing loss as the Vikings fall to 6-9 in Zimmer & Teddy's inaugural season.The refereeing was atrocious, yes, but a good team is able to overcome that spot. The Vikings didn't Sunday. Hopefully someday they will.C*** Punt-Blocked Talking Points Include:• WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED• The Weekly Referendum on Teddy Bridgewater• Offensive Line. Woof• Matt “Bulldozer” Asiata• The Defense Didn't Travel• Keep. Your. Damn. Composure.• Xavier Rhodes Love• Coach Mike Zimmer• #Purple FTW Helmet Stickers• Condolences to the Greenway FamilyAll that and other "7-9 ain't bad" jibber-jabber on this edition of the #PurpleFTW Podcast!An Andy Carlson Joint.Follow us on Twitter @PurpleForTheWinVisit the Website: http://purpleftw.com/Subscribe to Podcast on iTunes: http://bit.ly/Q6EKaNWe're also on Stitcher! http://bit.ly/1rNsopIMusic for the Purple FTW! podcast is created by & produced by deeB.To hear more of his tracks, check out: https://soundcloud.com/deeb

Show notes

Oscar Hazell (@OscarHazell) of Fin Depth joins us to preview Vikings @ Dolphins.The Vikings (6-8) have a worse record than the Dolphins (7-7), but it feels like our squad has a much brighter future as anyone and everyone might be washed out in Miami come the end of the season.We'll see if Teddy can build on his already impressive rookie résumé as he heads to Miami for a hometown homecoming.

Purple FTW! Podcast - Week 15 - Vikings-Lions Recap - Eaten Alive Dec 15, 2014

Show notes

Our Minnesota Fightin' Vikings fell to the Detroit Lions 16-14 Sunday at Ford Field.The Vikings (6-8) jumped out to a 14-0 lead, but couldn't hold on as Teddy Bridgewater threw two picks, Blair Walsh missed 3 field goals (including a 68-yard game winner), and Zimmer displayed some questionable clock management skills to close out the game. As many positives as this young team has shown this year, this is a game that good teams win. We did not Sunday, but we recap.Close But No Cigar Talkie Points Include:• The Weekly Referendum on Teddy Bridgewater• Mike Zimmer's Clock Management Game• Blair Walsh Yikes• Matt Asiata Wasn't Terrible• The Curious Case of Cordarrelle Patterson• Welcome Back Kyle Rudolph• That Zimmer Hellfire Defense• Gerald Hodges Love• #PurpleFTW Helmet Stickers• The Adrian Peterson Elephant in the roomAll that and other "Coffee is For Closers Only" jibber-jabber on this edition of the #PurpleFTW Podcast!An Andy Carlson Joint.Follow us on Twitter @PurpleForTheWinVisit the Website: http://purpleftw.com/Subscribe to Podcast on iTunes: http://bit.ly/Q6EKaNWe're also on Stitcher! http://bit.ly/1rNsopIMusic for the Purple FTW! podcast is created by & produced by deeB.To hear more of his tracks, check out: https://soundcloud.com/deeb
