The Minnesota Vikings are gearing up for their second preseason game against the Baltimore Ravens on Saturday, August 19th, at 5 PM ET. Coming off a gritty 13-10 win over the Giants on August 15th, the team's biggest storyline is the backup quarterback competition. Carson Wentz, who started last week, went 9-for-14 for 81 yards and a touchdown, including a game-winning 1-yard score to Myles Price. But J.J. McCarthy is still waiting in the wings, and Max Brosmer is questionable for Saturday, making the reps crucial.
On today's episode, we break down the quarterback battle in detail, analyzing what Wentz needs to do against Baltimore's aggressive defense to stake his claim. We also dive into key players and units to watch, including running back Demond Claiborne, who had 12 carries for 34 yards last week but needs to show he can pass protect. Receiver Myles Price is making a case for a bigger role with four catches for 51 yards and that touchdown. Defensively, Dallas Turner flashed with a sack, and the run defense will be tested by a Ravens team that loves to run. We also discuss the injury picture, including Jamal Adams going on season-ending IR with a torn quad, and the impact on the secondary. Plus, we highlight kicker Will Reichard's strong leg, hitting field goals from 35 and 54 yards. We answer fan questions about the offensive line's protection, the pass rush, and how the team will handle the Ravens' physical front.
This episode is for every member of Skol Nation who wants an in-depth breakdown of the Vikings' preseason progress. Hosts Carly and Doug bring their sharp analysis and bold predictions, including a call for Wentz to solidify his lead and the defense to force two turnovers.
