Agreed, this year I expected greatness. Next year I expect nothing. Zimmer looked awful this year, nothing he did worked in big games. He needs to prove himself worthy of being a head coach.

Thought they answered the bell @Philly, @GB (not so impressive hindsight), @LA (offensively at least). You're right tho, felt we weren't a contender after getting beat up by the Bears coming off the bye. That game was very telling.

Didn't like the schedule and knew the OLine turnover plus the loss of Sparano and Shurmur would really hurt. Not to mention teams were gunning for us, the Rams and Bears especially put in the work to embarrass Zimmer's D. That and Belicheck knows how to attack a Zimmer defense from his Cincy days. Kirk did well though all things considered. We rebounded nicely in 2015 and 2017, give Zim another shot. Other than that we won the games we should, lost at Seattle, only the Bills game was a real surprise.

. . Chris Tomasson@christomasson More from my talk with #Vikings Laquon Treadwell: “I know I’m a No. 1 receiver (on an NFL team). I just know that I’m playing behind two great receivers (on the Vikings in Adam Thielen and Stefon Diggs).’’ Chris Tomasson@christomasson I talked to #Vikings Laquon Treadwell, who is very confident. He believes he can be a 100-catch WR in the NFL but now he’s playing behind Diggs & Thielen. “Stefon had 100 catches and Adam had 100 catches. … When my time comes, and it’s time for me to get 100 catches, I’ll know."

Zimmer is staying. Spielman is staying. Soonest - Figure out OC - Hire new OL coach Free Agency - Sign FA G, LB, DT - Release or do not sign for market value: Sendejo, Remmers, Compton, Barr, Richardson, Treadwell, Rudolph Draft - Trade down in the first (get a 2nd and 3rd) - With two seconds take OG, TE - OG/C, WR in third

Ted Glover @purplebuckeye Retweeted Darren Rovell And people are bitching about the Cousins contract... [see below] Darren Rovell @darrenrovell Follow Follow @darrenrovell More The Green Bay Packers paid Aaron Rodgers $67 million from when he signed his new contract on Aug. 29 to today. That’s the equivalent of $540,323 PER DAY. - damn, that's a lot of money (and it doesn't include commercials)

Bill Johanesen -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/31/2018 5:40:51 PM)
The announcers were saying Cousins plans his day in 10 minute increments on a spreadsheet. Is that true? If so, there has to be a control-related element in him. Having things planned. Structure. So how does that jive with pass rushers all over him in three seconds? Does he mentally go bonkers? Or is he chaotic by nature and has to plan (seems less likely). Edit: 15 minute increments in 2015 - https://www.nbcsports.com/washington/washington-redskins/redskins-kirk-cousins-goes-next-level-his-daily-planner Seems to be for work mostly, then he got the routine down.

The less stupid guys on the roster the better.

Marlon Mack has been good for them plus Hines is solid as well, but Bell is next level comparatively. Bucs, Jets, Raiders, Eagles, Chiefs, Texans could all use an upgrade. There's some yahoo making the rounds saying, and I quote, "heard that bell is interested in the colts"...

Courtney Cronin ‏ Verified account @CourtneyRCronin 31 Dec 2018 More Laquon Treadwell recaps his season: "I wouldn’t say it was up and down. I had a couple drops, but overall I had a great year and this team had a great year. I played my role and did what I needed to do to help the team win."

David F. -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/31/2018 6:52:57 PM)
Also - just because I'm petty, who was the poster that asked me how I thought Philly fans were feeling this season back when they were out of the playoffs and we were in? Boy that didn't age well.

David F. -> RE: General Vikes Talk (12/31/2018 9:18:46 PM)
Cross posting because why not?... I bolded the wins for next year. 12-4, home field advantage through the playoffs, and a Super Bowl Title. PROVIDED we do the following: Draft OL, OL, TE, LB, in the first four picks. Sign a quality OL in FA. Cut Rudolph, Griffen, Sendejo, and Remmers. Home Games: Chicago Bears Green Bay Packers Detroit Lions Philadelphia Eagles Washington Redskins Oakland Raiders Denver Broncos Atlanta Falcons Away Games: Chicago Bears Green Bay Packers Detroit Lions New York Giants Dallas Cowboys Los Angeles Chargers Kansas City Chiefs Seattle Seahawks

I don't see it happening regardless of the moves we make but I sure hope you're correct and we do make all of those moves.

It's ok if I don't truly believe in this team. Doesn't mean I won't be pulling for us by the time the next season rolls around. Happy New Year everyone!

ambear -> RE: General Vikes Talk (1/1/2019 2:09:09 AM)
Happy New Year to my Viking brethren. I want this team to play violent and pissed off every game next year. Win or lose, leave it all on the field. Not sure we have the coach for it, one more year will tell the tale.

They still think he's part of the solution. We're back to the pitfalls of trying to catch up. The neglect of the OLine will most certainly be addressed, but I'm afraid that's going to leave a few other areas needing help, mainly TE and WR.
