can't believe what I just witnessed

I can. It's exactly what I was expecting. The entire team failed to show up, and the coaches didn't come close to having this team prepared today.

Just another fail in a long line of failures.

Here's the bad thing, I don't even care anymore.

When do pitchers and catchers report?

 

[fknhippie]

When you get blown out by Nick Foles, there's a lot of things wrong with your team. These guys should sneak back into town with their tails tucked between their legs. Mother fuckers played like they were neutered.

They got overly emotional over the Diggs TD to beat the Saints and decided to mail it in from the get go in Philly.

And I'm not saying they should fire Zimmer or anything, but I just don't understand the hype entirely. When it comes down to it, Brad Childress coached a much better NFC championship game than Zimmer and his staff did. Losing is one thing, but when your team shows up and plays like the Cleveland Browns in the NFC championship, it goes all the way back to coaching.

Seriously though, what a joke.

Yep, just another day in the life of a Vikings fan. I'm with hippie, I simply don't care anymore. 23 days until pitchers and catchers report, let's go Twins!

you can't honestly say you were expecting that?, I loss maybe but not getting blown out, we didn't get blown out all year, not once

I didn’t. I thought minny had a legitimate shot, especially with that defense. Keenum has been solid all year but honestly I was shocked after I saw the score.

Not trolling, but there was an interesting stat on Twitter :

5 teams in the history of the playoffs have won a game on the last play of the game.
The following game they have all lost and by an average of 24 points.

We all saw the stat about indoor teams have never won in outdoor stadiums in the playoffs, but it was actually kind of nice out last night.

Just one of those games.
Best of luck in the off season.
Whatever you can do to help us beat the Evil Empire would be greatly appreciated.

being a viking fan is nothing more then getting repeatedly kicked in the stones

 

[PnkPanther]

so where do vikings go from here?

Case had a helluva year, but I don't believe he's the long term answer. The OL was better, but needs upgrades. Defense was shredded the past 6 quarters of the playoffs.

Lots of ???

I was expecting a high scoring game like the Jags and Steelers, or a blowout.

Not sold on Case, but he's as good as the other two. He throws off his back foot too often and lets the ball float, if he can fix that, I'd be happy to have him signed.

Seems like the coordinators spent more time honing their resumes instead of the game plan. The defense didn't resemble anything close to even a mid-tier group.

I think winning last week was enough for them.

I mean I'm ok if we keep Case, but I think they need to draft a QB high if one is available they like. I don't think he's long term answer. Bradford is done as MN....Teddy who knows

then again, why bother, we'll back to NFCCG in 10 years or so to lose again

After watching all of these games, offensive and defensive linemen should be the highest paid players on each team. All the glory goes to the position players, but nothing happens unless you protect your QB and/or have holes to run through.

Then you need coaches with the right scheme/system.

yeah, we just got owned up front on both sides

 

[PnkPanther]

I'm going to throw full beer bottles at Philly fans, see how they like it


Or just sit at home and stew

 

[bt08]

Case is a solid QB and person, I'm 100% on board with giving him a contract, he deserves it and QB's don't grow on trees. Give Teddy a 1-2 year deal to be a backup

 

[Nosferatu]

Thing for me is what do they do defensively? I mean if they would have lost 13 - 7 I would have been okay, the offense still has work to do and Cook will be back but at least the D will still be solid. BUT, how do you improve a D that was #1 in yards against and #1 in points against then completely shit themselves in the biggest game of their lives?
