i find this ‘purgatory’ logic flawed.
1. golic negated it’s importance by saying how often 5-11 teams turn around and make playoff runs or win the super bowl the next year
2. they act as if having mid first round draft picks every year is a big handicap although they’ve hit on guys like jefferson
i think minnesota needs to fire zimmer
This just in, The Vikings really suck and they need to sign their qb to a fat extension
The problem with the Vikings is their Leadership. Without new leadership you stay in Purple Purgatory like the Vikings. The team owners, the Wilfs are way too tolerant of Spielman and Zimmer. Too loyal. The Wilfs just don't seem to understand that there is a timeline when it comes to Pro Football. Players get older. Players can get injured and lose their skill level. If you want a Super Bowl, you have to make your move when your players are ready. Not when the Owner is ready.
Why aren't we talking about the Cowboys win? Why are the sorry a$$ Vikes the main discussion here? Because Florio is a quazi-closet homer!
Queen Florio is the best!
We already have moved on! And the NFL ripped us off in a SB and in a NFC Championship game! So when you say they never will they should have if the NFL had done the right things! Go back and see what Childress said about Hurricane Katrina and the Saints game! Drew Pearson did push off and that cost them a win as well!
I'm just here for the excuses as to why the Vikings lost to a more talented team. I'll hang up and listen. ??
Mike Zimmer sucks. He's NEVER been a Super Bowl coach, EVER. He won't be, can't be and will not be. He is conservative and when the light go up, he gets more conservative.
I've been very supportive of Zimmer. Not anymore. He needs to be fired.
The Vikings don't have a head coach.
Mike Zimmer never went to the playoffs back to back!
I know some Viking fans- it's not they lost a football game, it's that they lost to the COWBOYS!
Golic lookin beefed good on ya my friend!
A football game is about adjustments period…. big or small. . A superior team that executes on a regular basis needs very little adjusting. A sub 500 team with a schitzo offense needs to adjust a whole lot. Minnesota's offense is sputtering for a lot of reasons. Cousins can be streaky and has happy feet. The O line cant even give him 3 seconds to pass. The OC is not calling plays that would be considered high percentage. Some of the calls are outright goofy. Cant run? go jumbo on the line and pound away to least get the defense's attention you got Boone and Hamm..Cant pass because of pressure? then go max protection. Routes are taking too long? shorten them. ( isolate your deep threat (Jefferson) to at least tie up several defenders. its not rocket science…The Packers in the Lombardi era used to run Jim Taylor on the sweep all the time. Teams knew it was coming and still could not stop it.. Do some things really well and simplify the offense. Its obviously broken. This is basic common sense stuff. Way too many mental errors and that is a lack of discipline. That is on all the coaches. The nepotism on the staff is not helping either. Players do not respond to a coaches son..Truth be told we are stuck with Cousins and his howdy-doody personality. Its time for Zimmer to right this ship or be thrown off the plank. Im sick of Purple Purgatory….
Golic looking handsome tbh
I will love the vikings no matter what. Been a fan since i was 5.
Where is Golic broadcasting, please? I miss him!
Wait a minute….you can use consecutive timeouts to freeze a kicker though?? WTF is that allowed but not when the offense is out there? Is it under two minutes you can’t use two consecutive TO’s?
It’s time for Rick to go!
Kirk cousins sometimes is really hard to watch
It wasn’t that the Vikings lost. Losing is 1 thing. But to play that sloppy is what makes it so bad. It is like they don’t care.
The Cowboys game showed how bad the Vikings are. They could not make tackles. They could not convert on 3rd down. Penalties galore.
I’m a Cowboys fan but I thought they were gonna loose
QB’s are just so important and the Vikes way over-paid for an average QB who isn’t really a leader. So they are just a reflection of their poor decision at QB.
???? go Cowboys ????
Mike Zimmer or Kirk Cousins not calling a TO at halftime to try to get more points is inexcusable
Zimmer has been the media darling and THIS is why this stuff happens. No one has held him 2 account. The media deserves blame 2. Kirk C. is what he always is…a mediocre QB.
Mike n mike are back.
And Mike neglected to mention the one outlier year took a literal miracle for them to make it one more game only to get blown tf out.
FIRE ZIMMER NOW!!!
Anyone else notice that Zimmer has the hand shakes when he's holding the play sheet? His time is coming to an end.
Garrett Bradbury can kick rocks
Zim and speil needs to go f themselves
Enough is enough. Zimmer has to go and it's time to go get a young offensive minded HC… Kellen Moore please.
Cousins is the epitome of purple purgatory. Has great numbers vs bad teams then disappears against good teams. Balance them out at the end of the year and he appears to be a top ten QB but is average at best.
I love seeing Golic again!
Noo refs were cheating for the Vikings.
You'd better not say that to Herm.
