And so the season ends

Can't get open

Can't protect.

Can't stop the run.

Down 17

Might as well be 70

The offense has zero chance.

Waving the white flag.

Will be interesting to see what happens with contracts and personnel next year. Lots of tough decisions to make. OL is still a weakness. WR3 is weakness. DL could get younger. CB's have lots of ???

Cousins, like Dubnyk, is not that guy, NTG

And Cousins isn't the only problem. Tear the team down, find a new coach and GM, and rebuild.

I don't see Garopolo winning a game when it's close. The defense will take care of him.

Embarrassing offense. got whupped at the LOS.

Our OL is simply terrible. It's been that way for too many years.

Budget is shot. Spielman has ignored it constantly.

While I agree, it's not just the OLine, IMO.


If you're honest with yourself and not just self loathing MN sports fans (like we all are but just take a step back for second). Given our history with Zimmer as a HC. What was your reaction to another big game where we got the ball:

Went a typical 2 shitty runs and a "no chance in hell" 3rd down attempt.

Let them walk right down and score like we were paid to do that.

Seriously. We tied it up shortly after and looked a bit better but were you like:

A. we can do this!
B. same ol' shit, here we again.

I saw 10 minutes of this game and then barely watched. I knew what was coming no matter what the circumstnaces were. 10 minutes in and I knew the outcome.

But they won the first round, so he'll keep his job.

As usual, Mn Settlers will prevail.

Settle for this guy, because, OMG, who would coach them next??

I've heard that argument. And could care less. They will not go very far with Zimmer running the show.

Of course, he'll point to what SF did as to what they "can do" running the ball.

Forgetting it was HIS defense that got run over.

Reports are Stefanski will be Cleveland's HC

Buh-bye

Don't let the Screen (pass) door hit you on the way out.

It's hard to know exactly who had how much control of what happened on offense. Between Zimmer, Kubiak, and Stefanski it's a 3 headed monster and I have a feeling Zimmer probably kept Stef from getting too creative. However, if Stef was primarily responsible this season and yesterday, I won't miss him. On the other hand, if he's the genius that many people say he is and we kept Zimmer while letting him walk, we are a stupid franchise.

KC can come back from a huge deficit
Vikings can't. We will see how Stefanski does in the NFL graveyard. I think conservative play calling is on Zimmer, not Stef.

Oh, Stefanski can create offense, with the playmakers Cleveland has. Has his work cut out for him with some egos.

It wouldn't surprise me if it went that way. Zimmer has one year on the contract. IMO, don't extend him.
Am sure he'll get a couple more years.

HAS TO get over all this conservative stuff. The D isn't what it used to be. SF finished off what we all knew. They had moments. Not enough of them.

Miles is right, KC has the ability, because.....they have an offensive coach who doesn't pucker up. He also happens to be the head coach.

Henry is fun to watch.

Mahomes is fun to watch.

I will enjoy the AFC title game.

Tannehill goes from scrap heap to AFC title game. Good for him.

Russell Wilson has to be the best player in the NFL. Freaking amazing.

Titans the only thing remotely fun for me to watch anymore.
Every other remaining team is full of ying-yangs, imo.

Damn-near got that win, by himself.
Early second half, 90% of other NFL teams and QBs cash it in. Not him. I agree Matt.
Dude is a gamer.

If Stefanski was interviewing Saturday, its the worst interview in the history of interviews.

I noticed the Packers got a few cookies yesterday.

1) Hail Mary by Seattle at the end of the first half - Incomplete with 1 second left. That second magically disappears. Half over.

2) Late in the game, Green Bay running back is clearly stopped short of the goal line upon replay. Not overturned. TD Packers.

3) Even later in the game, I don't remember the GB receiver, but he was stopped short of the first down. Refs give him a gift spot. Upon replay, it's clear he's nearly a full yard short. Call not overturned. 1st down Packers. Game over.

There were more, but my short-term memory is not the best.
