The coaches like to call designed running plays for him as well as options, and he'll take off in no time while not being bashful about mixing in some contact at times.

Superbowl preview next week?

Bills / Vikes

would be a great Superbowl matchup for two 0-4 never won an SB teams!

So, other than just going with bias, what do you think of Nick Olson's opinion of Kirk being outstanding today?

Box score won't say it but Cousins was outstanding today.

Great pocket presence under heavy pressure, highly aggressive—both downfield (ADoT over 10 yards) & into tight windows (25% of his throws), pinpoint accuracy & one of the best throws of his career:

Bills are very overrated. Lost to the Jets.

Kirk was the opposite of outstanding today. I've never seen more passes completed for negative yardage in a single game.

I didn't want to play an angry Bills team in Buffalo.

I wanted a comfortable Bills team coming off about a 5 game winning streak, thinking the Vikings would be no problem. Then the Vikings maybe pull an upset and shock the world.

The Jets stole that thunder.

One of the prettiest plays was the TD to Cook.

I loved the playcalling, there was enough variety to keep the defense guessing. And if overcame protection problems, and some not so great decisions or throws by Kirk.

The Lions gave the Vikings two nice gifts, Hock, and then the win over the Pack.

I feel like the Vikings COULD be in the Super Bowl this year. IF they beat the Bills in Buffalo, I will feel like it's the Vikings destiny to be in the Super Bowl.

The best of what we are right there. The smile on Hocks face. The way the team embraced him right there. Goosebumps.

Next 3 weeks will show if they are contenders or pretenders.

The division seems a lock at this point.

Theyre 7-1. They won the games. Only a few teams have hung in there and finished their games in the NFL like the Vikes have. Regardless of what happens the next 5 games they deserve credit for finishing and not folding up like we' re used to

Look at the drops. The int was a drop by JJ. KJ had a drop and I believe JJ had 2-3.

It took Hockenson exactly 1 game to surpass Irv's best game as a Viking.

This bodes well.

7-1 and haven't come close to playing our best game.

Everyone has room to improve, including KOC. He makes a big point about that in every post game speech. We need to stay healthy, but barring major injury to important players we will be a force in the playoffs. This team is still ascending. 1st year coach looking pretty good while learning on the job. Everyone on both sides of the ball has been learning new systems, and we're 7-1.

They have put an emphasis on being situational masters and I think it's really helping them thrive at the end of games where they used to choke more often then not under Zim. I, like the rest of you would like to see them be better than they are more often during the game, but we are not a perfect roster by any means. We are very good, probably in the 4-6 range league wide, but any given day with the right break at the right time and we can win against anybody.

I like KOC and Kwesi and I'm going to enjoy this ride as long as it lasts all the while knowing we are underdogs to go all the way.

Nice post B.

This season is unlike any other that I've known. Frustrating at times but Hella fun.

A text I got from my brother a few hours after the game pretty much says it all.

Worst part about the Samuel TD catch is that he was triple covered and the other two thought Bynum was making the play.

TJ is already our 2nd best receiver....and probably didn't know a majority of the play book. Also Kirk loves TE.

If for some reason Josh Allen (elbow) can't go next week for Buffalo, it will be the Bizarro Minneapolis Miracle game, with Case Keenum and Stefon Diggs facing the Vikings.
