Questions Answered: Most Surprising Vikings Player, T.J. Hockenson’s Return, the Super Bowl

Also, please note: These are opinion-based responses. Some answers will be incorrect from time to time. But we’ll try to keep that to a minimum.

Sam Darnold must get his flowers — the guy is leading the NFL in touchdown passes and, to the naked eye, looks like an upgrade to Kirk Cousins. Many believed he’d play well this season, but not this well.

2) Jalen Nailor has totally seized the WR3 job by the esophagus and made it his own. Hell, with Jordan Addison out, Nailor has looked the part of a decent WR2. In June and July, some fans considered Nailor a roster-bubble candidate. He’s healthy and turning heads now.

3) We expected Blake Brandel to be the real deal, but the opinion was commonly shared amongst the Vikings’ community. Through three games, Pro Football Focus calls Brandel the league’s 11th-best offensive guard. He needs a shoutout here, too.

Q: When do you expect T.J. Hockenson to return to this suddenly good offense?

Q: Can the Vikings win the Super Bowl with how well this team is playing?
