Training Camp DRAMA: Kyler Murray's Rise and JJ McCarthy's Future with Vikings

VikesNow co-founder Dustin Baker joins Evan Groat from Minnesota Vikings training camp to break down the NFL's biggest quarterback competition. Baker explains why Kyler Murray has been the frontrunner since the day he signed, what JJ McCarthy's injury history means for his future in Minnesota, and whether Kevin O'Connell can survive another year without a playoff win. Also covered: the thin edge rusher room after the Jonathan Greenard trade, Dallas Turner's breakout audition, the safety question hanging over Harrison Smith's future, and why Baker isn't sold on the Aaron Jones–Jordan Mason backfield. Plus his over/under call on Vegas' 8.5-win total — and the record he's predicting instead. #vikings #minnesotavikings #nfltrainingcamp #nfl 00:00 Intro — the NFL's biggest QB battle 00:45 Kyler Murray vs. JJ McCarthy: who's leading? 02:03 Does Murray fit Kevin O'Connell's offense? 03:53 What's next for JJ McCarthy 04:52 The injury history problem 06:00 Kevin O'Connell's Year 5 and the hot seat 08:05 Other camp battles: safety and edge rusher 09:51 Is edge rusher the biggest concern? 11:14 Dallas Turner ready for a bigger role? 12:32 The running back room and O'Connell's run-game problem 15:17 Over or under 8.5 wins?
