Don't worry, norv will make proper adjustments. He's a second half OC.

Having rarely seen games this year, I have stayed out of the animated debates about our Offensive (lack of) production this season. Now that I've seen a bit more... I think it's time to draft another QB. He's had very little time to get set and scan the field, it's true, but when he does have time he's failing miserably. That INT was a horrible throw.

EVERY game I've gotten to see this year (SF, GB and this atrocity) has been BRUTAL. Just once, I'd love to see them play well. I can't believe this team has won 8 times this year. Is that true?

Now we know why Exum and Blanton didnt play for so long.
The D is a sieve. NO where near a top 5 D, let alone a #1 D like some mentioned. Stupid penalties.
Lets put all the blame on Teddy though. Its so much easier to think the problem is just him.

We need to give Peterson the ball, I don't care that we're down 3 scores, we can't play this game without our 3 best defensive players AND without peterson

If they find someway to win this, it will have to be through big special teams plays.

They ARE dead in the water. Norv isn't doing anything great with this offense. It's all on Peterson's back. Because he's a stud and Zimmer's defense (when healthy) is good, that's why the Vikings have a winning record.

Except its painfully clear we dont have a QB capable of mounting any kind of comeback......he has no arm and no gut to try to throw downfield. Reality sucks, once again........

Are you watching the same game? Our defence is banged up and Bridgewater and the oline suck the hardest out of anyone on the team

You are telling me the guard is hitting the tackle before the ball is snapped and they aren't calling that a false start? I'll have whatever it is you are drinking. :D

The only way we have a chance here is if the D keeps them at 21. They've been a better 2nd half D this year so who knows. If we keep them at 21, we don't have to abandon our game plan: running with AD. Our OLine isn't good enough for any other game plan.

At this point, injure as many of them as seriously as possible in case we meet in the playoffs. I'll put a bounty on Sherman.

Take advantage of Seattle playing 1 safety high and try to keep them honest by throwing downfield. Tackle better. Keep Wilson in the pocket.

Y'all think Derek Carr would play well under this putrid Norv/OL offense?
