I think the blame needs to be put on the offense a lot more than the defense - scoring 16 points against Dallas' defense is unacceptable. Kirk was awful, throwing the ball more at CJ Ham than Jefferson, throwing idiotic passes behind the line of scrimmage that the Cowboys had clearly figured out. Yes, the OL had a bad game, but it wasn't bad enough to be insurmountable. Throw the ball downfield to Jefferson, Thielen, and Osborn, dang it! Even Conklin, he had a great catch on the first drive! *wallbang*

This is why I can't stand Kirk, he's played well enough in most games to save this team's butt, but then in winnable games against the Browns and Cowboys he plays like crap.

The defensive breakdown at the end was bad, but to me it wasn't surprising and it only happened because the offense was bad enough to let Dallas hang around. *drunk*

Thank you.

We don't get a ton of replays at the game, but that offensive performance was straight garbage outside of the first drive.

With that talent? Unacceptable. The defense gave them enough chances. They couldn't make any of them count. Even at the end, with the Cowboys' mistakes, 1st and goal from the 4 and can't score? Wow!

I can't wait for people to watch film. I want to know why Cousins kept throwing behind the LOS for losses. Why not throw it away? Why pass it behind the LOS when the receiver is in the defender's grasp?! Where was his confidence? Throw it downfield!

I thought he was in charge of that but he thought the other guy was in charge but the other guy thought we were both in charge of it and ENOUGH ALREADY. Enough of the vaudeville and slapstick, people don't want to perform and get credit, they want to pass the leadership role around like hot potato and have their excuses ready to go when its a failure. Larry, Moe and Curly all going, "I thought YOU were in charge!"

Sounds like the Head Coach right before Zimmer was here...go look at the film Mike, because that's all you're good for...you're the worst gameday Head Coaches I've ever seen....

He's become just as much of a broken record as Frazier "we need to look at the tape" excuse after every game. Same sh*t every week.

Here's a big problem...QB doesn't know what he's doing in a 2-min situation deferring to a Head Coach who doesn't know what he's doing in a 2-min situation....two negatives don't make a positive in football....

That's beyond comical right there. Throw in Baby Pubes and you got Moe, Larry, and Curly running our offense. Imagine having a team that doesn't even know how to handle timeouts in the 2-minute drill. That's like a pilot that doesn't know how to deploy the landing gear.

I've been meaning to ask you, how does it feel ... being the only remaining Zimmer fan outside of his family? (roflmao)

Wow lady, what's it going to take? Maybe he just needs to hire a new OC lol? Have we tried that yet? New QB perhaps? C'mon!

Some say I'm too laid back. Really, I'm just too lazy to argue with them.

The only time he considered throwing 15 yards down field was on role-outs. Otherwise it was all quicky check downs. Check downs are when all other options have been depleted. Ours looked too damn designed to be options 2 or 3.

If being a Viking fan was easy ~ everyone would do it.

What was your favorite moment? Mine might be the refs grabbing us by the scruff of the neck and trying to throw us into the end zone for a second half touchdown like a momma cat dragging a kitten but we played for the field goal and got it. Ball control, baby.

So tired of the stale conservative offense ball/clock control garbage. Or waving the white flag with time and time outs left before ends of halves. It’s so deflating.

Shouldn't her situation be more relatable to you since you are the only Sloter fan left in the known universe? Just sayin'... *whistle*

As always the deflated ball should really go to ownership for putting this crap product on the field and laughing as we spend our precious time and hard earned cash on it. To quote coach Burnsey, "F*ckers!"

Zimmer and Kubiak got very badly outcoached by McCarthey and Kellen Moore, the Dallas OC. What do you think this game looks like with 100 percent healthy Dak Prescott and the Vikings starting Kellen Mond? Think we win by 4?
