The remaining division games will define our season. 

We're lucky nobody wants to take control of the North.

These next 3 games are how the Vikings take it over. 7-3-1 with no loses in the division sounds pretty sexy right now. That'd also give us the season series vs. GB and get us up 1-0 against Lions/Bears.

Honestly....and why no roll outs?

If the guy is getting rushed on half the snaps, why not roll him out and buy him 2-3 more seconds for the receivers to finish their routes?

Is Kirk not a roll out guy or what? Keenum did great when rolled out of the pocket last season.

Rollouts take away half of the field, and considering that Cousins is good at using the whole field it’s probably not in your best interest to have a lot of rollouts.

I've gotten the impression that Kirk isn't as much of a roll-out guy.  Case was more of a roll-out guy...and often would roll out just because he couldn't handle the pressure stepping up into it...unlike Kirk.
