Huge win changes Vikings narrative; Wolves sign McDaniels, embark on make-or-break year
Description
Introduction: The narrative of the Vikings season flipped over a three-hour stretch Monday. Suddenly they have a strong offensive line? A stout defense? A clutch QB in prime time? Luck on their side? And a real chance to make the playoffs? That's what it looked like to host Michael Rand after a 22-17 win over San Francisco at U.S. Bank Stadium.
12:00 : Star Tribune Wolves writer Chris Hine joined Rand for a preview of the Wolves season, which begins Wednesday and has a real make-or-break feel to it -- especially after they signed Jaden McDaniels to a huge extension just before Monday's deadline. Can the Wolves win enough to keep their core intact, or will their play and bloated salaries force them to break things up?
32:00 : The Astros lost, which is always a good thing.
