swede700 Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 (edited) Probably for the first time in quite some time, I have no argument against anything that has been said in this thread. What I saw last night was wholly unacceptable and the entire organization as a whole should be thoroughly embarrassed. The offensive and defensive game-plans were a disaster. Offensively, it looked like they were still game-planning against the Detroit Lions and defensively, they fell apart in the 2nd half after losing Hunter.

SemperFeist Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 The fact that this level of dysfunction came after a bye week is the what is the most unacceptable. And it’s been an issue for Zimmer his entire tenure. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mostly par for the course for the Vikings when they play in prime time. I remember one prime time game under Zimmer where they didn't pee down their leg.

The game plan should have never changed just because Cooper Rush played instead. Did they say the game plan changed? Either way no matter who they prepared for, the game plan should have included covering the Cowboys receivers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad People Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 How do you forget you called a timeout when it wasnt even a few minutes after? You lack that much focus you forget something like that. That quote right htere if I was the owner would make me chuckle a little and start making phone calls to get Zim in my office you cant lack that much focus when youre the HC of a professional football team Also have the Vikings under Zim ever put together a complete game? Where the Offense is on fire and clicking same with the defense and special teams, Its always one of the other with him as the HC thats right there is a sign that hes inept when it comes to coaching.

They are very few and far between. Seattle was our closest this year and even then the 1st quarter was a mess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Zimmer can no longer remain the head coach. 2.) Kellen Moore is the guy he needs to hire to replace Mike Zimmer. I just hope like heck we get a young-ish, offensive minded head coach who can bring this team in the 21st century. Moore, Leftwich, Brady, Daboll, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sad People Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 Play the younger guys see what we have and try and trade Michael Pierce and Dalvin Tomlinson to acquire draft capital? We arent doing anything this year especielly with Danielle out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PrplChilPill Posted November 1, 2021 Share Posted November 1, 2021 If Hunter is out, then there really is no real hope for the season, at least not any realistic one. I'd blow it up....and start over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At 3-4 they can still make a run is the mindset you’d expect from a NFL head coach fighting for his job. Unless Spielman has unquestioned job security, no way they sell off vets. I’d expect the other way around if anything. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

New vision, new leadership, a new philosophy is what’s needed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
