FS1 host dubs Vikings as 'Team of Destiny' for the 2025 season
.@jasonrmcintyre is ALL IN on J.J. McCarthy and the Minnesota Vikings 🤯 — Herd w/Colin Cowherd (@TheHerd) June 3, 2025
In Batman: The Dark Knight, Harvey Dent says, "You either die the hero or live long enough to become the villain." Well, in a weird way, Fox Sports 1's The Herd has done that same thing in a sort of reverse order.
Throughout the offseason, host Colin Cowherd has been critical of the Minnesota Vikings and J.J. McCarthy. The Summer has now come, which means that sports anchors and radio hosts are taking their breaks while the seasons are on a break, which is where The Herd comes into play as they bring in Jason McIntyre to guest host the show.
During one of the shows this week, McIntyre expressed his belief in the Vikings, a belief that is the opposite of Cowherd's.
"I am coming out right now and telling all of America I'm all in on J.J. McCarthy and the Minnesota Vikings, they will play in the NFC Championship this year. ... I am all in on this team."
McIntrye could not be more excited if he tried when talking about the Vikings and he explained what made him go all in on this version of Minnesota football.
"There's a couple things at play: Without any prompting, Aaron Jones has not stopped talking about J.J. McCarthy. The leadership — the dude's got it, sometimes you just have it. ... Jim Harbaugh, who knows a little bit about football, loves J.J. McCarthy. The team of destiny this year is the Minnesota Vikings."
While Colin Cowherd is away, one has to wonder what he thinks of such an opposite take of one that he has been so vocal about this offseason.
