With the rushing success today and the fact that the clock was such a huge factor at that point in the game, I just think the wise play is to hand it to Mason up the gut. Make it an easy button for the dude with 3 games of NFL experience.

That’s kind of the point though. Why call a play that’s much more difficult to execute in a zone that we’ve famously had a tough time executing in? Just run 3 straight times up the gut and kick if needed.

do you have any idea how bad things must be behind the scenes - how hellish the underlying data must be - for this guy to say something like this

Myles Price has had four returns called back because of penalty in the last two games, none hurt as much as that 99-yard KOR for a touchdown that is wiped out by a Tavierre Thomas holding call

That's a catch but this is also the Vikings so

You haven’t watched the Vikings rush under KOC then…

He wouldn’t though…because he’d just hang onto the ball until recess is over.

Flores as Vikes DC: 0-2 vs Stafford, 0-4 vs Goff, 0-2 vs Hurts, 0-2 vs Herbert, 0-1 vs Mahomes. Hasn’t played Allen, Jackson, or Burrow yet.

Abused backups, but the best he’s beat is Jordan Love with a high ankle sprain. Really concerning.

The vets have mostly played like crap too. They have nobody To blame but themselves. Allen, Hargrave, Harry, Thielen, Oneill, Metullus, Ham, Jones all have underachieved.

God yes a 24-6 deficit just one more 24-6 deficit bro

Yeah we could win a bunch of meaningless games at the end of the year and miss out on generational talents like Andrew Luck and Drake Maye.

Vikings defense vs.

Herbert in first half: 14 of 18, 191 yards, 2 TDs
Jalen Hurts: 19 of 23, 326 yards, 3 TDs
Aaron Rodgers: 18 of 22, 200 yards, TD

They haven't forced a takeaway since Jake Browning was in town on Sept. 21

Kwesi let Darnold and Jones walk. Brought in Fries, Kelly, Hargrave, Allen, Rodgers. For a team that “won the offseason”, it sure feels like he missed on every single free agent.

Jonathan Allen is getting embarrassed.

Sports were better before it was legal to bet on them.

He’s been bad all year. So has Harry and Jackson. Safeties have added no value.

We deserve 20 years of HOF QB play after enduring this.

Equal parts failure from players and coaching staff as well. Truly remarkable. When you march Brandel out there again this week and are playing Tyler Batty 15 mins into the game, it’s over. I cannot believe how much money we spent on Allen and Hargrave. It’s a catastrophic failure.

Hence Tyler Batty on the DL in Q2…

Chris…care to text that to Matt Daniels? Also, any tips on not having a flag every single ST play?

Pick six near the start of the drive, offensive touchdown to end it. Brutal

extremely lmao

Definitely would have been tough for me to say that definitely wasn't intercepted!

that looked pretty intercepted to me

ah, no way man

First downs: MIN 21, PHI 13
Third downs: MIN 7/15, PHI 3/10
Total yards: MIN 387, PHI 361
Time of possession: MIN 34:02, PHI 25:58
Penalties: PHI 8/64, MIN 3/30

But it all means nothing when you go -2 in turnovers and 1 for 6 in the red zone.
