The KOC offense reminds me of the kick-ass-offense that only works with certain guys doing certain things, and we just don't have the guys to do it!
If he continues to try to force round pegs into square holes I can see a change at head coach at the end of this season.
It is time for KOC to adjust his offense to suit his players skills or we will be stuck seeing the same terrible offense week after week....

This is where i'm at. KOC's ego is going to be his downfall. He thinks that his O is so great, anyone can run it if they "get it". If not, it's their fault, not his system. I think he's a really great program builder but he's not a good OC. He's also learned to be a good HC, IMO. I wouldn't get rid of him but he needs to hire a real OC in the offseason and turn it over.

I'm also glad Teasley is here. We went to the season with a great D and ST's. It's criminal that the O is this dysfunctional at this point. We went into TC with no clear cut #1's at QB and RB. That's insane. Jones is a warrior but just doesn't have it for the long haul at this point in his career.

This QB room makes everyone ornery. A sibling of mine is so pissed Wentz isn't starting.

As bad as we have it---it could be worse.

I look and see Maye 1TD/6Ints, Williams now injured for 2-3 weeks, and Dart out for the year. As a whole MN Vikings have had all of those recently.....injuries and bad performances.

Trade! The Vikings are sending QB J.J. McCarthy to the Giants for a 2027 fifth-round pick, sources tell

.

With Jaxson Dart out for the regular season, New York adds another young QB, while Minnesota gains flexibility and McCarthy gets a fresh start.

#Vikings TE Josh Oliver is feared to have suffered a torn biceps in Sunday’s game and will have an MRI today determine if that is the case, sources say. Oliver would be out indefinitely if the testing confirms.

The Vikings are clearing approximately $3.7 million for 2027 after the trade, per source. Team projected to have potentially 10 draft picks for '27, factoring in potential compensatory selection.

A 5th is what he's worth.

When Phil proposed a 1st and 3rd to Seattle after week one, which was laughable, I formulated the trade of a 5th and 500 pounds of salmon. NY can instead throw in 500 pizzas and we'll call the trade good.

I am getting a bad feeling about this.

Murray's play has been at best anemic and uninspired. Wentz just isn't a starter and Now our third stringer is Max Brosmer....

Not saying things were much better with JJM but, yeesh.

Maybe after seeing how bad Murray was yesterday the regime knew the calls for JJM were going to grow and it would be a distraction. It would be interesting to know the inner workings and thoughts.

Why? KOC isn't going to reveal anything. It will be the typical give him a fresh start, saw an opportunity for all concerned, blah, blah.

i remember...wish we got the salmon

but I agree the 5th was the best case probably

was hoping we could fleece someone, maybe we did

I was thinking a 6th in the offseason so I'm relatively happy

I guess Brosmer is emergency QB?

Tha, you, Odin..

Cut bait with the coward who is soo chi,dish..

He might do better with a different coach, but officially, KOC as “ qb whisperer “ is DOA on any roster.

If we go on a losing streak, say 5-6 games, his job here is gone.

Just a Gemini ask.

What FA QBs are out there:

Jimmy Garoppolo is the top name still available among free-agent QBs, along with mostly depth/backup options like Jake Browning, Brandon Allen, Kyle Trask, Clayton Tune, Brett Rypien, Chris Oladokun, and Bailey Zappe (as of late September 2026 updates).

Garoppolo probably wants $ as apparently he was considering the Giants job

Jake Browning and Brett Rypien are available lol

That hasn't changed since he was hired though Dan.
KOC can win regular season games. What needs to get done to win in the playoffs?

The QB whisperer is a cute aside but winning playoff games is what needs to decide his fate.

These guys don't fit the bill of developmental QB.

Milton or Levis would be my choice. Brosmer should be cut.

Levis was added to Jets PS and Milton is on Cowboys PS so there is that.

I wouldn't mind either as a #3.

Reddit this morning was full of people pining for JJM

I shouldn't have been surprised, but I was

there should be a suicide watch out there for some of them

We are 3-0. A Top 10 team and you are thinking about 5-6 game losing streaks. Come on.

Dan, what you and I can probably agree on is Teasley doesn't see a QBOTF on this roster.

What would you think of CJ Stroud if Houston's season continues to tank?
