Vikings-Giants Preview, Draft Position vs Momentum & McCarthy Growth

Описание: Join Tyler Forness and Dave Stefano on The Real Forno Show as they break down the Minnesota Vikings' Week 16 matchup against rookie QB Jaxson Dart and the struggling New York Giants (2-12). With playoffs out of reach, should fans root for a loss to boost 2026 draft position—or a win for momentum and young talent development? To win or not? That is the question.

Key discussion points:

Winning vs. draft capital: Why pride, culture, and evaluating J.J. McCarthy outweigh marginal draft improvements in a meaningless game.
How J.J. McCarthy can take the next step: Building on back-to-back strong outings (multi-TD games, improved accuracy), exploiting the Giants' weak secondary for confidence-boosting plays.
What’s going on with Christian Darrisaw?: Updates on his lingering knee issues post-ACL recovery and cautious approach in a lost season.
Injuries to Jonathan Greenard and Josh Metellus: Both out for the year (shoulder surgeries)—how Brian Flores adapts with Dallas Turner stepping up on edge and increased roles for Theo Jackson/Jay Ward in the secondary.
