Thanksgiving Games, JJ & Max, Week 13 Picks and Live Recalculation of Power Rankings Today

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! 🦃🔥 In today’s LIVE Purple N Gold Bars Show, we’ve got a full slate of football and Vikings-centric goodness. We kick things off with a breakdown of the three Thanksgiving Day games — key matchups, storylines, and what each game means for the playoff picture. Then we pivot to the Minnesota Vikings quarterback room, talking JJ McCarthy and Max Brosmer. I’m giving my full perspective on why this exact path — the ups, the bumps, the lessons, the growth curve — is necessary for JJ’s development and for the future direction of this franchise. After that, we move into my Week 13 NFL Picks, going game-by-game with quick rationale on who wins and why. Finally, we wrap with a LIVE Power Rankings Calculation, adjusting teams on the spot based on results, trends, and what truly matters — not the mainstream media narratives. Pull up, hang out, and SKOL! 💜💛 Drop your thoughts in the chat and let’s talk football the right way — Bars Only.
