Word is that they don’t have anyone on staff with play calling experience.

I’m really lazy, so what I would do (and what I do whenever I post the front porch) is just go to the news & discussion page, copy everything from “Recent Vikings News” to the video of the day, then paste it to the front porch. No links to look up, no video to look up.

Now THAT is lazy.

Playing with a setting, so if you notice something goofy, it’s just me.

Doesn’t that go without saying?

Big stretch coming up. On the road at Buffalo then 3 home games with Cowpokes, New England and the Jets. All above 500 and a combined record of something like 23 – 11. How we do in this stretch will define our chances in the playoffs. I say that because if we go 0-4 in this stretch, and even if we run out the the rest of the schedule undefeated, we still have this crappy record against playoff-caliber teams. How do people think we do these next 4? What do we have to do differently to get more consistency?

Would love to see them go 2-2 or better.

Pre-season, most people had the Jets game as a gimme win, not the case.

Hoping for 3-1 4-0. 2-2 is realistic, but so is 1-3.

Bills LOSS
Cowboys LOSS
Patriots/Jets 1-1

I see 1-3

I love the record so far, I love how much fun the team is having, but I see serious weaknesses that have not yet resulted in losses, but will

Cowboys defense is extremely good, and their offense is gaining traction with Dak. Helps that the game is in Minnesota, but I don’t see the Vikings scoring many points without a special teams return and/or being ahead in the turnover margin by 2 or more.

Implosion is right. There seems to be a lot of finger pointing in Green Bay right now.

So much fun to watch. 3 decades of HOF-level QB performance, they’ve become spoiled.
