    I just hope they don’t go into prevent defense playing soft nothing like giving the opposing offence an opportunity to get into rhythm

    Haha, you could see it coming a mile away. Get a good lead, then back off. The other team starts moving. Happens every time.

    I think it’s been a fairly entertaining game considering we are watching two backup QB’s.

    Yep. Get a lead then pretend to blitz and not get back in coverage. Didn’t give up a touchdown for 2 weeks cause they couldn’t cause they weren’t ahead. get a lead and be stupid again. How can everyone see it but coach keeps doing it.

    It worked so great last time let’s do it again some more prevent defense.

    Attack and take the damn win, the only adjustment has been the vikings D in the second half, now you are playing against a team that believes they can still win.

    Wow what a play by Higgins to reach behind his back for the TD.

    Would’ve been nice to have a field goal or two in the bank rather than bad decisions.

    They attacked plenty in second half.
    Have to make the plays.
    Again entertaining game.

    Gee, an extra 3pts sure would have come in handy.

    Bad fundamental football and strategy on O probably going to cost the Vikes this game.

    It’s backup QBs what do you expect.
    Much better than watching a 3-0 game IMO.

    I seriously can’t watch this anymore. So many freaking chances and failure on such critical plays.

    I’m starting to rethink our head coach based on some of these crazy play decisions.

    What crazy plays?

    Sorry, there are to many to list

    This loss is on the coaching, do they walk home?

    Imagine the possibility of ending the season behind the Packers and potentially tied with the Bears.

    Well think the tush push should be out. whistling

    KOC needs to have his play calling privileges revoked. He needs to be sent to his room for a timeout.

    Yeah that’s a loss totally on KOC.

    That’s a copy cat league play.
    Nothing to do with receiver weight. 190lb qb vs 225.
    All pro center vs Garret.
    They literally lost by 2 inches.
    Mahto should be pumped they lost. jester

    Got that right. You guys see Flores barking in O’Connells ear during the last drive? Tells it all…

    Wrong. It has everything to do with a 180 lb WR.
    Silly boy!

    Could be worse, you could be one of the players questioning some of these coaching decisions, they are the ones that actually suffered the loss, es

    It truly sux as a fan, it’s going to be a long week of being pissed, AGAIN

    The final knife in the back will be a lions win tonight.

    Why get that mad. They are rolling out their 4th qb of the season.

    Hurts doesn’t need help.

    I have been a life long fan even of the early days, I was about the age of four and now in my sixties and it the same song & dance, something/someone being a total cluster F^$% that keeps screwing up. Today other than Mullins poor decisions while in deep when you’re sitting on points, the rest of the team for the most part played well. The coaching especially KOC on the other hand once again thinks he is the smartest person in the stadium.

    Here you had Chandler over 100 yards, you also have ham that can carry the ball, but no you go twice with Mullins and a wide receiver giving him a love tap from behind.

    Totally pathetic.

    Don’t disagree with running a different play there…

    You sure edit your posts a lot after the fact.

    From SI:
    On both QB sneaks, better known nowadays as the “tush push,” Mullens had the diminutive wide receiver Brandon Powell, listed at 5-foot-8 and 181 pounds, pushing Mullens from behind.

    Why not use a bigger body, like 250-pound C.J. Ham or 260-pound Josh Oliver to move Mullens forward? Hindsight is 20:20, but that could be one O’Connell wishes he could have back.

    I should have changed the channel and watched the wild, but it’s not in me I must like the pain of defeat, it’s grown on me ;), I go to the bitter end, 41-0 in 2000 title game sucked as well.
