The two are inextricably connected. Edited October 3, 2019 by Cearbhall Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Howler Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 (edited) Coach doesn't have confidence in Cousins. Pendulum swings in the other direction and he becomes ultra conservative with the offensive philosophy. In turn, the two star WRs start to question why they are even there.

He just had a 100 yard game in Chicago. The first and third games were blowouts, what does he expect. Were there missed opportunities in the Green Bay game? absolutely. i like the Vikes stance but if they can get a first round pick for him from a team that isn’t the Patriots (since they will be picking 32nd), I’d do it. Not interested in a player for player trade at this point, unless I was getting a stud LT who’s still pretty young.

Not to mention he had had a couple drops and a big fumble 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heimdallr Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 If we can trade Diggs for a quality OL player that will help right now, I'd do it. Trading Diggs for draft picks would essentially be giving up on this season, and I don't think we are at that point. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I do not like what is happening with the 2019 Vikings! Yet, I am predicting this whole thing between Cousins, Theilen, Diggs and Zimmer will get uglier before it gets better. I really hate this.

Freakout Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I feel we are forgetting how hard it has been for us to find quality receivers. You trade Diggs and they next guy wanting out will be Thielen due to the coverage he'll garner. They need to go ahead and fire Stefanski and give the play-calling duties to the best play-caller on the staff. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SemperFeist Posted October 3, 2019 Share Posted October 3, 2019 I don’t think his frustration is schematically based. I think it’s more towards the QB. The scheme is getting both Diggs and Thielen open, there have been times where Diggs looks like he’s running free. I’m guessing that the frustration is mounting due to the QB failing to see/pull the trigger, and instead opting to check it down. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This would be a bad idea. Mid season firings of the OC in back to back years would signal the end for this version of the Vikings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
