Minnesota Vikings superstar wide receiver Justin Jefferson didn't hold back after a blowout win over the Washington Commanders.
Commanders head coach Dan Quinn calls out his team after a blowout 31-0 loss to the Vikings, saying Washington took "three steps back."
The electricity of 14 wins in 2024 is gone. In its place: a 4-8 record, a quarterback room that makes Tarvaris Jackson look like peak Kirk Cousins, and serious questions about whether Kevin O’Connell, Kwesi Adofo-Mensah, and even Justin Jefferson have a future together in Minnesota.
Both the Vikings and Commanders exceeded expectations in 2024. Now, they're both trudging through a tough 2025 season.
In Sunday’s contest against the Commanders, the Vikings did cruise to a 31-0 win. McCarthy showed encouraging signs by completing 16-of-23 passes for 163 yards and three touchdowns. The Vikings, at 5-8, are still trying to breathe life into what has been an uneasy 2025.
These numbers help tell the story of how ugly this Vikings season has become.
The Vikings’ starting QB version of musical chairs will land back with J.J. McCarthy in Week 14. McCarthy has cleared concussion protocol and will return to the starting lineup Sunday against the visiting Commanders.
