SB Nation Poll: No Immediate Plans to Bench Players

As the Minnesota Vikings prepare for their upcoming matchup against the Green Bay Packers, recent polling results provide insights into fan sentiments regarding the team’s direction and quarterback situation.
Vikings’ Direction Poll Results
This week’s SB Nation Reacts poll reveals that 32% of respondents believe the Vikings are progressing positively. This reflects a slight decline from 39% the previous week following a defeat to the Baltimore Ravens. Despite the loss, the drop in confidence was not as significant as anticipated.
Quarterback Controversy
The second question in the poll centered around whether the Vikings should bench J.J. McCarthy in favor of Max Brosmer. Surprisingly, this debate showed a close division among fans. Approximately 40% of participants favor starting Brosmer, who lacks experience compared to McCarthy.
Fan Perspectives on Quarterback Choices
- Many fans are uncertain about the wisdom of switching quarterbacks.
- Concerns linger about the potential negative outcomes if Brosmer does not perform well.
- Support exists for allowing McCarthy to continue developing through game experience.
As the Vikings aim for an upset against the Packers, the team faces crucial decisions that could impact their season trajectory. Fan engagement through polls indicates a strong interest in these developments, and it remains to be seen how the coaching staff will respond during the upcoming game.
Thank you to all participants for their valuable input in this week’s SB Nation Reacts survey. Stay tuned for more polling opportunities next week as we continue to gauge fan opinions.
