Vikes might have a chance this weekend, given the coach they’re facing and they’re at home.

Also their QB is gimpy and the ONLY consistent thing the Vikings defense does is bring pressure.

[cHawk]

Prescott officially OUT for tonight’s game.

[Vanimal46]

Same thing every week. Scripted opening drive TD, followed by several drives of run, run, pass. 3 and out. It’s getting really old. 

[cHawk]

Wtf was that playcall

[cHawk]

What the heck was Cousins doing??!!

[Vanimal46]

Where is the urgency to get some points before halftime? Horrible clock management. Happens way too often.

Did Cousins not know he had a timeout?

Who knows. It’s just baffling how bad we are at the 2 minute drill before halftime. We should be up by multiple scores, but as usual, we want to win a 17-14 game 

[cHawk]

I don’t understand how our defense can suck this bad with all the money spent to fix it.

[Vanimal46]

Harry the Hitman. Woof. Did he still think it was halftime?

[LVTwinsfan]

I was hoping they would fire Zimmer at halftime 

[Vanimal46]

Why try going for a first down, or god forbid, a TD when you can get a FG instead? This team… 

[cHawk]

A very BORING game to say the least

[Vanimal46]

1 for 10 on 3rd downs. The play calling is just disgusting. We’re not giving ourselves a chance to keep the drive going. 

[Mike Sixel]

Anyone that thinks this is a good team is deluded. Blow it up.

[cHawk]

Why not run it on 3rd and 23?

[Vanimal46]

PREACH. 

[cHawk]

Who’s worse? McCarthy or Zimmer?

It's Zimmer. This many OC..... It's Zimmer. Gift field goal from the refs.

Season over

[Vanimal46]

Whelp. If Zimmer doesn’t get fired after this I have to reconsider watching another game the rest of the season. This was one of the most disgusting offensive displays I’ve seen from the Vikings. 

[nicksaviking]

This team has no heart. Really embarrassing to be a Vikings fan these days.

[Mike Sixel]

They are completely unwilling to attack on offense. And the defense comes up small over and over, year after year. This is all Zimmer.

I’m still giving a slice of blame to Spielman. He had to know that players who refuse to get vaccinated are not the type to put the team first and make winning their top priority. He employs more of these players than anyone in the league, and the lack of heart shows.

Also, a decade in and still no sniff of a competent O line.

Not to absolve Zimmer if anything. This is unwatchable football.

What a pile of crap

[USAFChief]

It's been obvious for quite some time Zimmer is going to consistently get less from his team than the sum of its parts.

 

 

[Vanimal46]

I don’t have the stats to back it up, but I’m quite confident Kirk Cousins attempted more passes to Dallas’ bench than our own players tonight. The fact that he threw it to their bench for the final play shows he’s in it for himself. God forbid his stat line shows him throwing a pick when the game was on the line. He’s a loser. Always will be a loser.
