    Just too tough to watch. Too many disappointments to list.

    By hey, there’s always next year.

    I really feel sorry for the dedicated fans shock

    As bad as it sucks we lost and wont be in the playoffs it still a lot better than being like some of the other teams and being eliminated from playoffs by thanksgiving atleast we had something to care about at the last week of the year toast it could be worse like 6-9-1

    I have never understood why Cousins got signed. He was never great on the Redskins. QBs don’t suddenly blossom overnight to become franchise QBs. So we gave up three cheap QBs for a gamble on one mediocre QB.

    I also wonder why Cousins ever agreed to this. He knew deep down that he was never going to rise to the level one expects from that kind of money deal. Why put all of that pressure on himself? He hasn’t had a fun time this season and can you imagine how many sleepless nights he is going to have this off-season? Why put that on yourself?

    At least the Vikes have two more years with big game Kirk as their QB woot

    Everybody saw both lines get dominated. Absolutely dominated. Blame it on Kirk if it makes you sleep better. If not for the miracle last year there would not have been the unrealistic goals of this year. This team finished where they should. Ahead of the Lions and Packers.

    I have no problem with Cousins. He was better then Bridgewater ever will be and he made it through the season which Bradford wouldn’t have. If you want to point fingers point them at Zimmer, he is the guy that can’t get the team up for big games.

    Anyway, it’s whine time now!! jester

    isn’t that the same story with every professional MN sports franchise? This is loserville USA and I have not let things like games bother me. I am a fan and will not turn my back on any of the teams here but I really enjoy football period so oh well, I will sleep better than Kirk or any of the crazy nutjobs that there whole life is sports sports sports. I can’t wait to go fishing tomorrow!

    Time to clean house, enough said! I don’t post a lot but that game was ridiculous. The best thing about it was at half time we had fish tacos. They need some changes in coaching and management. Case was better also.

    Hey Dutch, I do think Teddy would be better than Cousins now. He had the ability to run.

    Great qb’s save bad offensive lines.

    He (Cousins) is exactly who we thought he was, don’t fool yourself.

    The storied history of choking continues!

    And before all you Cousins backers start pleading your case, tell me one big game he’s ever won. Ever.

    Agree to an extent Jeff. Winning a Championship game is pretty big. I know it’s not the biggest but we just missed the playoffs with cousins, not even a wildcard in a weak NFC.

    I said it a coupleweeks ago, the Vikes have a storied history of choking.

    Cousins is as mobile as a guy on crutches I know we need line help but 3 and out is not the norm for a good offense, receivers should be beyond the first down marker. Where is the coaching???
