The Minnesota Vikings just got a tough tough break ahead of their matchup against the Indianapolis Colts on Sunday Night Football, and I'm gonna tell you about it on today's podcast. But first, let me tell you about Hopeland Farm Beef. Hopeland Farm Beef has the best rotationally grazed, one hundred percent grass fed beef. This beef is sold in quarters and halves, and they have costume sample packs so you can try before you buy. Hokland Farm Beef is one one hundred percent grass fed. You could get ground beef, sirloin, steaks, chuck roast, tea bone steaks, and plenty more. My wife and I took advantage of Hopeland Farm Beef and got our beef for four dollars and fifteen cents a pound. They go to a grocery store and you won't find that anywhere. Chuck rows go eight nine ten dollars a pound, steaks. You don't even want to know how expensive those things are in store. Four dollars and fifteen cents a pound at Hokland Farm Meat, Plus it's one hundred percent grass said. Plus you don't have to worry about what these grocery stores are putting in this crappy beef to make it lasts longer. Hokland Farm Beef nine five two four nine one one five four one twenty percent off when you mentioned the Minnesota tim podcast nine five two four nine one one five for one. Okay, So the other day I did a podcast on the upcoming matchup that the Minnesota Vikings would have against the Indianapolis Colts, and I did a little short discussion on Joe Flacco or Anthony Richardson and the Minnesota Vikings upcoming opportunity versus both quarterbacks, and the Indianapolis Colts aimed their starting quarterback for the weekend, and unfortunately it's not going to Anthony Richardson. Who wouldn't be thinking that Joe Flacco, who has played for the Ravens then played for the Browns got them to the playoffs, and I was playing for the Indianapolis Colts thirty nine years old, would be the best option for the Indianapolis Colts over second year starter Anthony Richardson. And I forgot is run with the Denver Broncos. He had them for a year. He had a run with the New York Jets for three years. So Joe Flacco has been around the block and he's playing some of the best football of his career with the Cleveland Browns and the indian Anneapolis Colts. Let's just take a look at the stat comparison, and this is courtesy of the Purple Persuasion Twitter account, so he just needed to look it up. Here is Joe Flacco's stats in twenty twenty four. A sixty five point seven percent completion percentage compared to Anthony Richardson's forty four point four, A six point six yards per attempt compared to Anthony Richardson seven point two. He has seven touchdowns per this season, seven touchdowns in total this season, and one interception, a QBR of seventy three point seven, an overall Pro Football Focused grade of seventy one point two, and a passing Pro Football grade of seventy flat. And how you look at Anthony Richardson's numbers, He's got a QBR fifty seven point two, four touchdowns, seven interceptions, He's got one rushing down, five fumbles. His Pro Football grades are forty eight point seven and forty nine point five. The Indianapolis Colts made the best decision for their football team to win on Sunday against the Minnesota Vikings. And this isn't even including the TapouT that Anthony Richardson did the previous Sunday against the Houston Texans. So this game just got more challenging for the Minnesota Vikings because the Colts decided to start a thirty nine year old Super Bowl winning quarterback from years ago because they think they they think he gives them a better chance to win. And it's true. I mean, I don't know how can you question the logic by the Colts because Joe Flaco is the better quarterback, is the more accurate quarterback, gives the wide receivers a better chance to make a play, is much more able to get play action going, especially because they got Jonathan Taylor and they have one of the best offensive lines in football, which is really good for Joel Flacco who's had seven touchdowns one interception this year. So it's not like Joe Flacco is in a situation where he's just gonna get absolutely crushed back there. Stafford didn't get touched last week for the Vikings defense, Flacco's probably not gonna get touched either, and that's why they can make this shift to Joel Flacco. If they had a bad offensive line, Anthony Richardson would play start just because his legs allow the offense to maneuver a little bit differently with more time and scrambling ability. It just allows plays to last longer. But Joe Flacco can sit in the pocket and feel very assured because he has a very good offensive line. And what's crazy about this is that the betting markets believe that Joe Flacco gives the Indianapolis Colts a better chance to win. Not by just a slim margin, but the Vikings were originally seven point favorites, and when the Indianapolis Colts made the decision to switch over to Joe Flacco, the Minnesota Vikings favorite to win number completely changed. It's now minus five. That's two points, and that's a big, big deal. So it's crazy that the Colts believe that Joel Blacco gives the Colts a better chance to win.
