Trae Wayne’s is finally playing for Cincy.

Just gave up a 50 yard completition…



trae waynes will be back in Minnesota next season at $3m/yr....

breeland was skipping around the injury list this week, maybe an excuse to put dantzler in without ruffling zim's bravado........

Cousins happy feet and no confidence. Brought back to Earth and then some.

Defense okay but bailed out by horrible performance by Mayfield.

Try to get to 3-3 going into Bye and hopefully Darrisaw is a player and Cook is healthy.

They ran all over us and the only thing keeping the game from being a blowout was how bad Baker Mayfield is.

He missed at least 2 easy 3rd down passes and had the inexcusable one where he tried to run for the 1st with a wide-open man 5 yards in front of him (that he looked off!).

They keep running Cook out there at 75-80% he will be dealing with that ankle at least until after the bye week where he can rest it.

Stefanski has quality O and D lines, so Cousins would thrive there.

If we traded QBs today, both offenses would have been better.

Cousins would have hit the wide open guys and Mayfield could have escaped the pass rush.

Down 11-7 and more worried about leaving time on clock than just scoring … down 14-7 and more worried about leaving clock than just scoring. I understand running the ball can slow down a rush but can we ever play situational football and not just ‘our style of football’?

Being a running team and not being able to do anything if it doesn’t include running the ball. We are so situationally unaware.

We are what we and thats a shame.

Our style of football has been slightly above average the 1st three weeks.

But, their Front Four destroyed us. Simple as that. Their back 7 was pretty good too.

Stick with it because it was efficient enough to go 1-2? Because those losses were close?

... because its been so successful over the Zimmer years?

plus, they already know each other pretty well...let them work out a deal in the offseason and we'll probably get a couple of nice picks out of it...we'd probably only be liable for kirk's 2022 $10m signing bonus....

towards the end of the game, hill threw in the towel - we should have put an extra tackle on the left side to help him...it was truly pathetic....

When the Vikings go 7-9 and their Kubiak steps down, they hand it off to the seed of Kubiak to go 1-3.

Vikings aren’t even a playoff team. Ownership needs to step up.

Just talking about the offense. Averaging close to 30 ppg and Cousins had been lights out.

Situational awareness? in game adjustments? Shifting to cover an opponents strength you didnt game plan for?

He no, Zimm will play Zimm ball...

How would you grade Stefanski today?

They(Browns) were physically dominant on both sides of the ball and it still came down to the last play.

Stefanski was average at best. However I've never seen a qb miss so many open guys either. It's been quite some time anyway.

I'm just saying their are 12-15 message boards around the country calling for coaches' heads every weekend.

Firing everybody isn't going to help us this season so why hope for it. If it continues on this path, they will be gone at the end of the year.

It may be a little to early. Lose next week and I have zero problems with letting him go.
