Vikings @ Chiefs

[Badsmerf]

Is it good Cousins or bad Cousins today?

[Mike Sixel]

Can't watch, but clearly the offense isn't championship quality. My son thinks there is something culturally wrong that they never seem to start well in big games. I'm not convinced the head coach is a head coach.... And clearly the LG it's awful

[gunnarthor]

I think the offense will be fine. They should have gone for it at midfield and the defense is being exposed again by a backup QB. I think we'll win but the coaching is not making me feel great about that prediction.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

The offense has been good today. They only have 10 points at halftime but for most of that, I would just chalk up to game circumstances.

[Mike Sixel]

KC has a terrible defense, how is the offense fine today?

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Well you are not watching, so...

[Mike Sixel]

Well you are not watching, so...

Results.... Nice start to the half.

[Badsmerf]

16 points... Also, Thielen being out reduces expressiveness. Treadwell being a main target is a problem. Johnson is looking alright though.

 

D line is playing fairly well today. Playcalling hasn't been stellar. Hopefully they'll open it up a little now.

[Badsmerf]

Wow. Terrible positioning from Barr AND Smith on that TD.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Results.... Nice start to the half.

Also, KC had a 9-minute drive in 2nd quarter

[Badsmerf]

This secondary is terrible.

[Mike Sixel]

I'm ready to fire Zimmer, probably the GM. 

 

This team does not play UP in big games, and it seems the whole is less than the sum of the parts.

 

 

[USAFChief]

They literally had to FIND a way to lose.

 

Zimmer is awful.

 

So terribly, obviously, hugely outcoached.

[Hosken Bombo Disco]

Hey guys maybe we should practice the two minute offense some time

[gunnarthor]

This is the type of loss we usually wait for the playoffs to do. 

 

Man, that was ugly. I know Cousins will get the blame but I thought he played ok. Elflein is becoming a problem but mostly it was the coaching, IMHO.

 

This feels like a 9-7 or 10-6 wildcard team. If we play the NFC East champs we might get a playoff win but doesn't feel like a superbowl contender.

[Mike Sixel]

Yup. More mediocrity is in their future, I believe.

[stringer bell]

Tough day for the NFC North (0-4).

[Badsmerf]

See.... This is a win if Barr and Smith line up in the right spot to prevent a ****ing 90 yard TD run. Sometimes I'm convinced Smith does more harm than good. Offense was not crisp, neither was Cousins. Wasn't his worst game, but not his best.

 

This team will be in the playoff mix. The defense needs to start making big time stops... they almost did with that sack, but gave it right back.
