I’ve been saying this all season: We NEED to pay B Flo like a head coach. Don’t let him walk! There is no coaches salary cap so we can pay him any amount. If the Wilfs are willing to pay $2 million for tickets to the Lions game, they can dish out extra money for defensive coordinator.
He's already rich, he can get head coach money with a head coach job, and he's made it very clear he wants to be a head coach again. Paying him more isn't going to convince him to keep being a DC, you people are delusional thinking it will. Just have to hope that he realizes that none of the job openings this year are worth leaving for. Next year though the Bills (if they disappoint in the playoffs and don't improve next year), Bengals, and maybe even the 49ers could be looking for new head coaches. Hopefully he's smart enough to hold out for one of those jobs and stays another year, but that's best case scenario. He's too good to not get another HC job, the sooner people accept that, the better.
KOC shoulders more than half the blame you are assigning to Darnold. It's the coach's job to settle down a QB and KOC kept calling the same kind of plays over and over
Your Absolutely right if the game plan not work need to do something goto 3 or 4 step drop quick passing game and cut the routs shorter are defense play it's ass off but bad play calling by koc and Decision-making you always take point on the road and not kicking the fg early hurt but know sam darnold was playing terrible needed to try help him more to me sam darnold had a great season but just like kirk cousins good number but in big games I don't know he can handle it
KOC absolutely deserves blame but nah it's still on Darnold as well. Guys were open he just couldn't hit them at all. KOC shouldve went with a different gameplan but Darnold was horrible regardless.
Winners win and great quarterbacks make plays. That said, I’ve softened a bit on Sam’s performance - O-line failed him. KOC play calling failed him. He’s not innocent but the offense needed to step up and help him in Detroit and they didn’t.
Am not too worried about Darnold, am pretty sure he will recover from his horrific game and if not we move on to next year. Rams are no easy task but Vikings can win this game!
The harder the struggle the more glorious the victory! Lots of teams would cherish being in the playoffs- let alone while the winningest wildcard ever. SKOL! 💜💛
That's a nice way to look at it but it's still hilarious that ofc out of any team to be the first 14 win wild card team who else but the Minnesota Vikings
Andy 50+ yrs being a die-hard Vikings fan! No matter the coach,QB,or Stadium, my Vikings can’t seem to get it together. The Lions game was an embarrassment, the National jabronis dumped us like a bad (rice) dish. True story, even my ex-wife from 20 yrs ago text me to wish me good luck. Along with 50 + yrs of friendships who touched base with me knowing how much of a fan I am. Just like all the interferences, missed FG, fumbles or int before. We were crushed the first 8 min, you could recognize the Viking curse…..Skol😫
Darnold had more pressures, hurries, and hits in the game against the Lions than the Vikings put on Daniel Jones in the first game of the season. Is it any wonder he did not play that well? Name one QB who would have had a great game under those circumstances. The O line was pathetic. The game plan had no options for pressure and blitzes. There were no in game adjustments made because KOC only had one game plan. It was for what the Lions did the last time. KOC game planned for the last game. He is the biggest culprit in Darnold and O line playing poorly. The Lions did something different than they showed all season, and KOC coughed up a lung. Campbell and Anzalone rushed the passer a total of 19 times. The Vikes missed blitz pickups at an astounding rate.
Agreed Jamir Gibbs stat alone in the Lions game was a killer. That why i like idea of Vikings going out for their own Gibbs in draft if they can find him if it means trading up to get best Rb in draft like their trade up with Dallas Turner could be an option if the other RBs not up to par but lot of time to look at the draft after this season.
I just remember in 2021, the Niners swept the Rams in the regular season and they met in the NFC Title Game and the Rams won it. So, there's hope that if we see the Lions again, we'll take our revenge in the playoffs. Which will be much sweeter.
We will find out what the Vikings are made of on Monday night. Only the strongest mindset(s) can overcome such a big loss when so much was on the line. SKOL!
The 2007 Giants & 2020 Buccaneers were the # 5 seed in the NFC playoffs and won 3 straight playoff road games to reach the Super Bowl. One of those wins was in the Divisional round against their division rival who they lost twice to in the regular season. And ironically, both the 2007 New York Giants and 2020 Tampa Bay Buccaneers reached the Super Bowl by winning the NFC Championship game in Green Bay.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 I completely agree…Sam needed a good A$$ kickin…now we got that out of the way and thank god it was BEFORE the playoffs. Perfect timing. Let’s bounce back and get the ball rolling now! #SKOL!!
@ThepathtoValhallagetsshorterev But it does matter where, otherwise end up as a coordinator again within 2-3 years. Coaches don't fix badly run organizations, disorganization starts at the top...👀 Cowboys as an example
Sad thing is the Vikings defense we all know has been highly overrated I don't care what people say or think the Vikings have been giving up lots of points all season and have been inconsistent with a few low-scoring games to their credit but as we all know Vikings are going to do at the Vikings do break everyone's hearts reminds me in 1998 in some aspects
A record "turn-over" in every game played this year indicates U are WRONG...at the least they are a better than average defense...js OH and 1 lb had 2 "pick-6"'s
It was a good, fun season... next year is going to be fun too! Lots of exciting stuff to figure out before the season starts and maybe we will have a better run game plus half a O line replacement! Maybe on the right side..??
Pretty sure we're guaranteed to have Flores for another year. There's really only a few worth while openings and 5 other potential coaching candidates that would be picked over Flores.
On the odds of other seasons point; I'm a casino dealer, and if you have 16 v a big card (7+), if you stay, you have a 75% chance of being f***ed but, if you hit, you only have a 74% of the same. The past outcomes are only a collection of statistics that aren't relevant to our current hit/stay situation. 🏈 🍻
The fact that you’re talking about Darnold turning back into a pumpkin and are ready to swap him out for Daniel Jones, means you were never all in on him in the first place. I am. In Darnold we trust!
If Darnold gets hurt, who should back him up? Probably Jones. Am all in on Darnold, too; however, we need the best QB as his back up in case something happens. Go Vikes!!! *SK🏈🦶!!!!!!!*
@ true! My problem has always been that under no circumstances whatsoever would we put Mullens in if Darnold what having a bad game. That says volumes about the attitudes we hold towards our QB bench. If we WOULD play Jones and NEVER Mullens, then sure make the change. I have a feeling that the only reason we activated Jones was so we can trade him later. Let’s go beat the Rams, brother Viking and JOIN THE DARNY ARMY!!!! SKOL!👏🏽
Losing in a close game wouldn't have bothered me that much. The Lions are good and nobody expected us to go in and blow them out -- and I believe vice versa...THAT'S why it hurts so much.
It's going to be veeery interesting to see what our offense looks like Monday night. KOC's playing calling as well. I hope Sam gets some hypnosis, so he can relax with confidence. Yes, it was his 1st playoff game but it was still surprising to see how inaccurate he was. I hope greatly that the offense gets it's shirt together!!
The Guy Lombardo Trophy is ours for the taking. To beat press man, just have two TE's turn left from the right side, while Jets turns right from the left side, passing between two big guys. Boom! We messed up your wrestling match! Throw the ball to whoever's left standing! Fifteen yard penalty? Worth it! We'll be faking the same thing for the rest of the game!
Now Pizza is not all about the crust, you can't leave out the sauce. If not for a truly saucy sauce, the crust would just be bread. After that, ya, put whatever toppings you like, just have a nice caramelized cheese to cover them up.
I like Daniel Jones, but I do not think he fits the scheme that man can scramble with the best of them but with the vikes receiving core we need a pocket passer not a run first qb when he gets pressured. I see b flo the head coach of the bears scary....
Rebuild the interior offensive line first through the draft and free agency. I would draft Cam Skattebo somewhere in the mid rounds. We got to bring that tough running game mentality back to the Vikings.
If all the wild card teams in the NFC win, then the Vikings are the new second seeded team. Washington would come to Minnesota and the Packers would go to Detroit.
Vikes coulda won that game easily if they had TDs in the redzone. Dak Prescott does the same crap in playoff games, he's too amped up, pupils the size of quarters, overthrowing everyone. Too much adrenaline. It's what separates Joe Burrow and Brady from the Kirk Cousins. This was the only meaningful playoff-like game Darnold had ever played in. Hopefully McCarthy can teach him some meditation tricks to calm down before the Rams game
There are wild fires near west LA, people are evacuating. My daughter and husband live in west LA and evacuated to their home in El Cajon. Maybe the NFL will postpone the game. SKOL the Rams.
Donald didn't have a good day but stop blaming him. KOC didn't adjust as the left side of the OL was destroyed all game, Donald got 9 hits and the WRs were beat up at the line and were not getting separation. Picking a couple of plays that they are open is not good analysis of the game. Also they couldn't run the ball. OL again.
DONT understand not giving Ty some reps at this point in the season he has much more burst than the other two and fresher legs! At least 5-7 touches they put him in against GB and he did pretty good to keep the drive going!
I’m glad to see you guys are still celebrating your Super Bowl…. Y’all forget that anything less than the superbowl is a disappointment for your season. Vikings are playing with house money now and will end up playing you guys again…y’all will lose
Guess U would since series record is Vikings have owed Ur team since 1962....84-44 -2. Even a blind rat in detroit finds cheese once in awhile 😂😂😂GB or Washington will “upset" U

My Brother is a Dolphins fan and he said Flores was not a good head coach. @DustinHaning
He's suing the NFL and Dolphins to be a HC so money isn't even a issue!!
I've been thinking this and saying it for awhile. Use CJ Ham for more than a blocker. He's big and powerful. Good hands, etc. use the big dog....
KOC shoulders more than half the blame you are assigning to Darnold. It's the coach's job to settle down a QB and KOC kept calling the same kind of plays over and over
BINGO........You hit the nail on the head, Thank You.

time for KOC to come up with better plays inside the 10. Our oline just can't win in the trenches.
Offensive line FTW. RB is fine, make a trade. The Vikings have not been able to get 5 yards on the ground when they need it for years and years.
If only we had CJ ham who is a big man to run a dive play😢
“Pizza is not about the toppings, it’s about the crust.”

The problem is, there is so few years. Where you have everything together and then it goes away. We need to punch our ticket sooner rather than later.
This was always the path. Avenge the Rams loss, then go back to Detroit and bang up that Defense. This team is going to win the SB.
Running in the Redzone. What happened to Diving Over the Pile it used to happen once a game you never see it anymore.
Agreed Jamir Gibbs stat alone in the Lions game was a killer. That why i like idea of Vikings going out for their own Gibbs in draft if they can find him if it means trading up to get best Rb in draft like their trade up with Dallas Turner could be an option if the other RBs not up to par but lot of time to look at the draft after this season.

Sounds like a concession & defeat
I'll comeback to this comment Monday night after the Vikings disappointed us as usual

Geeze, Jeantry would be the bee's knees for us. He is a beast...a true "Bell Cow".

agree with darnold, played horrific and enabled all those who said he might. it's up to him to clear his head--if not, get rid of him...
Losing in a close game wouldn't have bothered me that much. The Lions are good and nobody expected us to go in and blow them out -- and I believe vice versa...THAT'S why it hurts so much.
i listen before i go to bed, its 12:09 am
The game itself was the end of the season so I’m over it and now it’s time for the playoffs.
It's going to be veeery interesting to see what our offense looks like Monday night. KOC's playing calling as well. I hope Sam gets some hypnosis, so he can relax with confidence. Yes, it was his 1st playoff game but it was still surprising to see how inaccurate he was. I hope greatly that the offense gets it's shirt together!!
“This is a Kirk cousins situation” yeah we have been saying that all year but you want to pay him 50 million a year. Helll noooo
oh and MN needs a UFL team!!! should petition for one, they start in march and could play at the bank
Blake Brandel was drug around the field. Why does he always seem to get a pass? He is a problem.
Use Qusenberry
It is wild how similar the 2021 Rams season is to our current season so far. Let's just hope Sam figures out how to be 2021 Matthew Stafford.
The Guy Lombardo Trophy is ours for the taking. To beat press man, just have two TE's turn left from the right side, while Jets turns right from the left side, passing between two big guys. Boom!

I have an unpopular opinion: As much as he's a loose canon, I like watching Mullens play :D Keeps you on the edge of your seat the whole time
I think it was Van Jefferson in the slot that game. OBD was the other receiver. I'd rather us see one of those guys than Puca Nacua w/ Kupp lol
could you imagine, the vikings in the NFC title game vs grimey packers since they're seeded where they're at... would be fun!
Dood I am taking a dump. Mind blown.

We need to find a DC that just wants to be a DC and is good at it! Aren’t there any people like that???
We as fans don’t have any true confidence as to who were r now. Darnold gave us no reason to believe.
OLine always a problem in recent years!
If that INT wasnt dropped in NFC title game, Rams would have lost. But anyway, KOC needs to help Sam out and run more in red zone.
Rebuild the interior offensive line first through the draft and free agency. I would draft Cam Skattebo somewhere in the mid rounds. We got to bring that tough running game mentality back to the Vikings.
Can you imagine this team with a couple of pipe hittin' interior linemen and then Jeanty coming in behind them....😮 We need nicer things!!
If Darnold sucks in 1st half on Monday, do Vikings pull him for either Mullins or Jones?
I agree we need to draft a running back, but will it do any good if our OL can’t dominate and create a hole? IMO
Head coach needs to run the ball more and set up play action next game hopefully
KOC wasn't a play caller with the Rams. I wonder why
Because Sean mcvay is a top 3 play caller in the league?
If all the wild card teams in the NFC win, then the Vikings are the new second seeded team. Washington would come to Minnesota and the Packers would go to Detroit.
