NFL coaches speak their own language when dealing with football. If they ever perused this site to get ideas (which they don't) they'd laugh at the relative Neanderthal language on the Game Day thread: "Run more!", "More slants dammit!", KOC is a bum, fire his ass!", "The D is tired again", "Burn it all down!"

Same for the upgraded Monday morning Cro-Magnonese posts: "Fire the OL coach", "JJM is the future/is historically bad", "Simplify the playbook", "Flores D is fine/can't cover/gets trucked/is SB caliber"

Then there are the modern man circa 5,000 B.C. insights where an outcome is deduced based on two things: "Kwesi is to blame because he can't draft nor hit on free agents"

And even if David's limited brain that can't fathom the idea of someone in the Vikings facility picking up some tidbits from a forum like this, is correct, and it was stubbornly done entirely from within, the good news is that it appears for at least one week, against a lower rated defense, KOC learned the effectiveness of staying with the run, and his QB getting the ball out quickly, which led to victory.

Against better defenses, I would still like to see more dink and dunk, more slants, well timed outlets for check downs, and or a few times a game, where the QB quickly and decisively takes off running, to keep the defenses honest.

You really do have delusions of grandeur

No David, I really am grand, and just like Bill, you're a limited thinker.

And just like with the awful secondary coach Richard Solomon, which I posted about for several years before someone on the Tribune posted an article which put pressure on his getting replaced, Chris Kuper is a bad OL coach that should be replaced now, but probably won't be replaced for another 2 or 3 years.

Sometimes the fans know better than all the organizations that pass over guys like Randy Moss, Sheduer Sanders, etc .... When the Vikings had 2 1st round picks in 2013, many posters here really liked DeAndre Hopkins, he might have been a better pick at #25, and would have been quite a haul if they had drafted him and still gotten Xavier Rhodes at #29, instead of drafting Rhodes and Patterson.

There are several posters here (not me, I don't follow college football at all), that would likely do a better job at drafting than Kwesi and the current crew.

It's the 2025 version of Seinfeld.

I don't agree with your last sentence at all......
Remember who is in there scouting with KWESI......Flores, KOC, etc. Just look at what we have picked up UDFA.....

Phil I only said some posters here likely would have DRAFTED better than Kwesi and the current crew, I said nothing about free agency.

Bill, we all know the concept of someone in the Vikings facility picking up some tidbits from a forum like this, is beyond your limited brain capacity, no need for you to repeat it.

It is a mystery as to why KOC didn't implement more running and quicker pass concepts until week 13, especially after adding Mason, but the regular season success of the last few previous seasons might have had something to do with it .

I wouldn't be shocked if most Pro Teams have someone monitoring the bigger, more active message boards. But its much more likely to be marketing, PR or even on-air commentators/host than it is players or (especially) coaches. Jim Petersen, for example, is a known reader of the Canis Hoopus message board and will give shout-outs to long-time poster).

But its absolutely not to get ideas about coaching or player movement. Its just to get the temperature of the fanbase and how they feel overall about the team.

And its not going to be a tiny private board like this with less traffic in a month than other places get in an afternoon.

David realizes it Bill, he just limits his belief to it only being for teams to get a pulse on the fan base, surely they would ignore any piece of helpful information . And realizing it is beyond your brain capacity, Bill, is evident to anyone that reads posts here, you show it in your posts, and your doubling down and reposting your foolishness.
