Big Boy Football is here. It’s almost December.

And all the Detroit Lions, Minnesota Vikings and Green Bay Packers keep doing is win. Combined, these three teams are 27-6. Sam Darnold fought through his inevitable midseason slump to look like the Vikes’ quarterback of 2024 and beyond. Green Bay caught a stammering 49ers team at the right time. The Lions smacked Indy, and let ‘em know.

While Bob McGinn and myself strongly disagree on “taunting,” we both can’t get enough of Jahmyr Gibbs.

At Lambeau, Josh Jacobs scored three touchdowns. We compare/contrast, Jacobs and Aaron Jones.

And if you had to win one game, would you rather have Darnold or Jordan Love at this moment?

We’ve got a loaded two hours for you.

Mentioned on the pod, here’s my story on the 2024 Minnesota Vikings and Darnold’s turnaround, as well as a profile of linebacker Blake Cashman and big-picture piece on Love. McGinn’s Midseason All-NFC North team is right here. As for the McGinn Memory? Bob looks back to the majestic dominance of Ronnie Lott and Jerry Rice, specifically this touchdown by Rice vs. the Packers in 1987.
