It’s one game. We’ll bounce back. SKOL!

    Klaus Capt B Squad

    If it were a competitive game, then sure we can say it’s only 1 loss. This team got exposed/embarrassed today. And now they’ve got a short week to fix it before they’ve got to play another team with an excellent pass rush.

Jon Ashbrook

Get well soon Darrisaw! 😢

Oline failed and our defense couldn’t stop anything. I’m getting tired of Donatells defense. So many yards given up and just praying for a interception or a fumble isn’t a defense.

    Glock26

    So tired of hearing about the oline, even being revamped and having 2 star players on it, we still find ourselves losing because of our oline. I’ve never seen a QB that got praised as much as Kirk not be able to score 1 single touchdown.. not only that but only get your team on their side of the field 1 time lmfao. Never seen it in my life, only Kirk is this terrible if his line is not perfect every throw.

    SneakyHashbrown

    @Glock26  bruh did you watch the game? 1 of those 2 star linemen was out. The first drive was Kirk’s fault for holding onto it. He was pressured more than 60% on his dropbacks, he couldn’t run for his life cause by the time he took 2 steps back he was already getting sacked. TJ dropped 2 touchdown passes on the same drive. Which would’ve helped with momentum, just like the Eagles game with Irv Smith. I get you wanna hate on Kirk but jfc watch the game first before running your mouth

    Glock26

    @SneakyHashbrown lmao, dude I’m not just talking about last nights horrible game, I’m talking about every time we lose a game the oline is blamed because Kirk makes it lose worst, you don’t know or understand football if you can’t see that. It’s clear Kirk is NOT good when his oline is not perfect, please name a time Kirk was good when his oline wasn’t perfect lol. Other QBs can make plays and deal with pressure, Kirk CAN NOT. NOT EVEN SCORE A TOUCHDOWN

    JackHighland

    @SneakyHashbrown he’s right….. Kirk is a straight statue. Him being so 1 dimensional where he just can’t use his legs is crazy, worst pocket awareness I’d say by a QB I’ve ever seen.

Sam Iam

No pumpkin pie this week. A heaping serving of humble pie is what this team needed. But, it is half the story. how they come out and play on Thursday will indicate if they are who we always thought they were.

    Sara Johnson

    We are dead

    Strider Zessei

    @Sara Johnson found the Packer fan.

opentrunks

Vikings have been a finesse team my entire life.

    Klaus Capt B Squad

    You obviously weren’t a fan of this team in 2012 then.

Rory S

Feel like we’re going to look back at the 2022 Vikings in a similar fashion to how we look back at the 2003 Vikings. I don’t think they’ll collapse that horrifically, this year’s team will still make the playoffs, but when you look back it’ll be “how the hell did this team get off to this good of a start?”

    Klaus Capt B Squad

    Is it really that much of a question? They had incredible injury luck, a weak schedule, and a bunch of game deciding favorable breaks. This season has been a house of cards

    ImaKeepItRealWitchu

    @Klaus Capt B Squad u must be talking about the Eagles🤔

    Sara Johnson

    We shouldn’t make the playoffs

    Rory S

    @Sara Johnson 8-2 team not making the playoffs when 7 teams make it would be beyond a monumental collapse. You’re looking at either the 6-5 Commanders or (if they lose Monday) the 5-5 49ers being the best NFC team outside of a playoff spot. Possible, but very unlikely. I agree that this doesn’t feel like a playoff team though.

    Puppethound

    I bet last week, some of you bozos were saying “WE’RE GOING TO THE SUPERZ BOWLZ” now it’s “we suck, we can’t win, we don’t deserve to be in the playoffs”, typical loser Vikings fans. yeah I said it.

Casey James

So many excuses but being a joke like they were today after defeating Buffalo is exactly what Vikings Football has always been about, This game was no surprise it’s nothing new under the Sun we haven’t seen before🙄

polsdofer

Those 2 losses are against better teams (can’t say the Vikings are better when they lose to them) by the score of 64 to 10 😬

    Sara Johnson

    Everyone is better. We were just lucky until now

    J. Franklin

    ​@Sara Johnson No…We have a top 8 QB, top 5 RB, top 5 WR, top 25 WR. On defense we’re less powerful but we have Kendricks, Za’Darius Smith, Harrison Smith, and Patrick Peterson. All B+ or higher in my opinion. We also have a pretty good coach now that doesn’t restrict our offense.

    We lost this the same way The Bengals lost the Super Bowl and some early games this year: A bad o-line and a defense that isn’t spectacular anymore.

    vikeirishman

    @J. Franklin and where’s hunter?

Poor Richard's

Donatells defense needs to be reevaluated! worst home defeat in Minnesota Vikings history! Dak had people open every where

Lawrence Daniels

Dallas acted like it was their “Superbowl”😆
“Shall we meet again”

    Newt

    We don’t do well with physical teams so we don’t want to meet again. I don’t like our chances with matchups with Eagles, Cowboys or 49ers.

    Lawrence Daniels

    @Newt the Vikings were “spent after that game in Buffalo”….
    The national media was going crazy about J.J. catch😆

    Lawrence Daniels

    @Newt Buffalo is physical my friend, don’t you think so?

Sizzlemann

Our line play (both sides) has been soft for years! Nothing new. After being a Vikings fan for half a century, I always take every new season cautiously. I was getting ready to buy in and then that! Won’t buy in fully now. I’ll root, but I expect one and done once more.

    ImaKeepItRealWitchu

    Sad but true 😒

    pedro016541

    they chocked again man this is ridiculous

Julius Sanders

I’m 63 years old and the fact we playing the hated Cowboys would have gotten me up and ready to play better than that.

    pedro016541

    they didnt even try, they chocked again

    Puppethound

    @pedro016541 Yeah I hate when the Vikings “chock”, man that socks. 😂🧦

Johnny Franks

This is what happens when everyone starts freaking out last week like they won the superbowl or something. This site even made a mini movie lol like common man its a regular season win and we kinda fluked our way to it. Putting JJs gloves in the hall of fame like whaaaat??? Way too much hype last week and you can see it in our teams mindset, werent ready at all

vikings lifer

In the beginning Gabe mentioned this our worst loss in franchise history. Maybe at a home game but not overall. The 41-0 loss to the Giants in the NFCCG in 2001 was worst..

the truth

This game showed how far away this team is from a SB

Ragnar

Look back at every game this year and you’ll see an abysmal 1st down percentage. 2nd and 10, 2nd and 8 almost every series of downs. It’s a strange issue, but one that mimics the entire game: slow start and come from behind.

It might be a mixed approach by KOC. Conservative on early downs and early in non-scripted drives, then opening it up on later downs and late in games. Maybe him being a rookie coach has him holding back and not wanting to be viewed as reckless. Just open it up all game long from jump, then live with the results.

Ben

Almost had them at the end there.
Just needed a few TDs, 2pt conversations and onside kick recoveries.

JackHighland

We need a young QB that can scramble and make plays on feet if needed.

    Frank Pierce

    The “scat monkey” quarterback is now in vogue.🤡🤡

Thomas B N4G

The first time I heard O’Connell speak he said “it’s just a game”. So this game made me relax with the stupid pre-game or game day rituals/superstitions. I’ve said at the beginning of the year this is a experimental season with a new coach. Some lessons are learned the hard way.

Vikings Couch

Review how Darrisaw’s head was targeted on the play that knocked him out of the game.
